Bungie exists as an independent developer, and 343 Industries is the name of the group in Microsoft that is in charge of the Halo franchise. Bungie isn't being split to form them, they just happen to have a few former Bungie alums working there. 343 has existed for some time, but they were known before as the "Halo Franchise Development Group" or something like that.
Here's the press release text that explains it, with some points underlined: 343 Industries is the publisher of the blockbuster Halo series of videogames and, as part of Microsoft Game Studios, oversees the Halo franchise, including novels, comics, licensed collectibles, apparel and more. 343 Industries is home to world-class developers working on future Halo projects, including Halo Legends and Halo Waypoint, as well as partnering with renowned developers such as Bungie LLC and Robot Entertainment to produce Halo games for Xbox 360 and Xbox Live.
Robot Entertainment, could this hint to a halo wars 2 that would be awsome, I have always thought that Halo wars should be a trilogy
