The current copyright owner is the current owner of the assets of Compass, which may change again in the future. I'm also not aware of people changing copyright headers for code owned by now defunct companies, see the existence of code still copyrighted by e.g. Motorola Inc., Digital Equipment Corporation, and Compaq Computer Corporation. If/when you make (substantial) changes to these files, you can add a "Copyright 2023, Logic PD, Inc. dba Beacon EmbeddedWorks" line.
