It's not likely that DAZ is going to do anything to hurt any of Eovia' s products because that will impact any profits those products can make. I haven't heard of anything negative that was done to Bryce, after DAZ bought it, so there's no reason to believe that anything terrible will happen to the Eovia line. The main change will probably be better import for scenes from DAZStudio and Poser.

As much as many folks want to believe that DAZ intends to put Poser out of business, that's actually more likely their greatest nightmare. If Poser goes away tomorrow, so does a good part of DAZ's future. Studio starts hedging against that disaster, as does adding better scene import functionality to Bryce and eventually Carrara. Someday, DAZ may have an application that is as feature rich as Poser and won't have to worry about Poser's future, but that day isn't today. I'm starting to see a few Studio only freebies and wouldn't be surprised if there are a few Studio only commercial products. It's only a trickle now, but it could get larger as Studio gets better. At the moment, Studio is just a nice free posing application for people new to 3D graphics. Right now, DAZ's future still depends on Poser's success. It's not unreasonable for them to not want to have their whole business model solely dependent on another product that has already changed hands a few times.
