According to a file from the UK-government agency Companies House from 5 September 2018, Jagex increased it's post-tax annual profits from £28m (2016) to £43m (2017).

(In case the word "Jagex" wrongly leads to the forums, which it ofen does, this is the link to the official 2017 financial record: https://tinyurl.com/y7kk63zh. It's a tinyurl* because the original is extremly long.)

Interesting findings (increases/decreases between 2016 and 2017):

Page 5: Amount of subscribers: rose from 2.082m to 2.135m (+11%)
Page 14: Turnover: from £74.4M to £84.8M (+14%)

Assuming I've followed the trial correctly, the Chinese company that bought jagex currently sits at 3.22 chines yuan per share (£0.36/$0.46)

In April 2016, when they acquired jagex they were worth $2.40 each - peaked a month later at $5.40 and since then have been declining (Must be their other products failing..)
