As a nonprofit, they cannot distribute those profits to shareholders. That's the whole point.

They're obligated to reinvest those profits back into the business, such as by developing new facilities, upgrading older facilities, and so on.

Ironically, if you forcefully revoked the nonprofit status you'd actually open the door for those profits to go to shareholders instead.
