Yahoo was sold to Verizon for $4.8 billion in 2016 [1]. VZ then merged it with their AOL acquisition under the brand Oath, which was then rebranded to Verizon Media Group.
The whole thing was apparently unloaded to a private equity group for $5 Billion recently [2] and has been renamed back to Yahoo... so yes, they still exist and now "Yahoo!" includes AOL too.
