For sure it will have strong implications in the short term. But in the long term it will depend on board of directors, shareholder, new CEO, new vision etc. Look at IBM, is 100 years in business, Apple could stay in business for many years to come, with or without Steve, the hard thing is to find a remarkable CEO that can drive the company to a clear path. "Founders leaving" has been always an hard question/answer to say in the short term.
