I'm not super knowledgeable on this, but like the other commenter said, if you can't define the gap it's not great. My only concern is people are looking at your resume and saying "this guy spent (about) less than a year at his first two jobs, there must be something wrong with him". Perhaps you could look to get in front of that subtlely in your cover letters though. Going heavy emphasis on the acquired bit could help. People will understand this happens with acquisitions through no fault of your own.
