no it does not but thanks 4 asking :-)
When Forrest Gump gave Bubba's mother her son's share of the profits from the Bubba Gump Shrimp Company, she was overwhelmed with gratitude. She expressed her appreciation by thanking Forrest for honoring her son’s dream and legacy. This act not only highlighted the strong bond of friendship between Forrest and Bubba but also emphasized the importance of family and loyalty throughout the film.

Gump wanted to keep his promise to Bubba, which is why he started the Bubba Gump Shrimp business.
Lt. Dan invested the Bubba Gump shrimp boat money into Apple Computer. This is the 'fruit' company Forrest metions in the movie.
Actually, there was no person named Bubba Gump. That was the name of Gump's shrimp boat business. But Gump's friend Bubba Blue died from injuries in the Viet Nam War.
In the movie Forrest Gump, Forrest is asked if he is the owner of the Bubba-Gump Shrimp Company and he responds "Yes sir, we have more money than Davy Crockett."
