"The companies in Nazi Germany were not state-run companies"
well its a historical fact that they were so...

You're either mixing up the Nazi regime with the Weimar Republic, or you were lied to.
The Nazis heavily privatized all things in industry, business, insurances to levels beyond any current Western nation. Only when it was absolutely necessary to do so for war efforts did the state take control.

"Only when it waas absolutely necessary to do so for war efforts did the state take control."
its telling to me that everyone who pushes this narrative uses the exact same article each time, but regardless from your article:
the author is calling branches of government "private entities" here:
"Besides the transfer to the private sector of public ownership in firms, the Nazi government also transferred many public services (some long established, others newly created) to special organizations: either the Nazi party and its affiliates or other allegedly independent organizations which were set up for a specific purpose"
i am calling the nazi party government/state btw in case that wasn't obvious and i don't see how you could consider them anything else in this context
regardless this alone should raise the eyebrow of anyone thinking about this rationally
"On one hand, the intense growth of governmental regulations on markets, which heavily restricted economic freedom, suggests that the rights inherent to private property were destroyed."
the author admits here that the nazis destroyed private property rights... because again as anyone thinking about this rationally understands a business can't be private while being controlled by the state to the extent that they were in nazi germany
“the State in fact divested itself of a great deal of its previous direct participation in industry….But at the same time state control, regulation and interference in the conduct of the economy affairs was enormously extended.”
that there is so much double talk when it comes to this topic should lead people to question things more but alas it does not unfortunately
if this isn't a damning comment i don't know what is
" “I want everyone to keep what he has earned subject to the principle that the good of the community takes priority over that of the individual. But the State should retain control; every owner should feel himself to be an agent of the State….The Third Reich will always retain the right to control property owners.”"
that is socialism in a nutshell if you cannot understand that then there really is no helping you
