I can assure you any company anyone acquires will look very different 5 years from acquisition if its still alive.

Also, any startup not acquired should look very different 5 years from conception.
Apple has bought several companies that had shipping products and just like Google, Apple didn’t cancel those. Examples are FileMaker, Logic, and Final Cut Pro. After it bought PowerSchools, Shake and Astarte, it kept their products on for many years. Furthermore, it is often said that Apple’s acquisition of NeXT was a reverse takeover.
