I wonder why, if the IP is solid and promising, the company is not outright bought out by ARM or Intel.

"Promising" != "validated"; also, Not Invented Here. Intel and ARM are their instruction sets, to a large extent.

Intel will probably just wait until they're profitable, and then threaten patent a infringement case.
