Does this sentence use commas correctly?

Answer 1

No, the sentence does not use commas correctly.

It should be:

The company, which was started when the two founders were still in high school, has now posted a profit of almost two million dollars in the past year.

The commas here are being used to separate a non-essential phrase from the rest of the sentence.
