Gitorious (a Git hosting solution similar to Github) is AGPL and owned by a company(Shortcut AS), so I imagine they must be somewhat profitable.
Funambol develops AGPL software for mobile push email and seems to be doing pretty well, with customers like Vodafone, Earthlink, AOL...
Other companies and projects using AGPL can be found here.
