Typically happens with cash, and that ends up the # of shares divided by the buyout price. For example Microsoft just bought linked in for $196 a share which was about a $60 gain for share holders per share. It was trading in the 130's and is now in the 190's. It sometimes happens with stock, but that is less common with larger companies (who I assume would be the type to purchase this because of the patents) in the software arena.
