Porsche has been an independent company from its founding. Ferdinand Porsche designed the Volkswagen, the first Porsche was based on VW components, and Porsche used VW components in later cars such as the 924, but Porsche has always been an independent company.
From Audi's site:
"The Audi badge – the 'Four Rings' – is the emblem of one of the oldest car manufacturers in Germany. It symbolises the 1932 merger of the four independent motor-vehicle manufacturers: Audi, DKW, Horch and Wanderer. Together with the NSU brand, which joined in 1969, these companies are the roots of the present-day AUDI AG."
Audi was purchased by VW sometime in the '60s prior to the acquisition of the NSU brand. It was never associated with Porsche.
