Kobo ePUB purchases and DRM

So I've purchased a few books from Kobo now and I was wondering something about DRM. Let's assume that Kobo goes out of business (hopefully it will not). All of my purchases currently being stored by them would presumably no longer be available to me. I always download the Adobe DRM epub and store it on my laptop just in case (recently I had to sideload a book through adobe because the formatting of the kepub I downloaded when I synced my Touch was bad). Now let us also assume that my laptop decides to implode in a spectacular fashion and the drm epubs will be lost. However, not to worry because I, with remarkable foresight, backed them all up to CD/USB drive/external hard drive. On my new computer I copy these files and download Adobe Digital Editions and log in with my Adobe account. Here's the question: Will I be able to open said epubs on the new pc using digital editions? Thanks in advance.
