What was the SS of Newport when it got bought out?

Shares of Newport Corp. (NASDAQ:NEWP) jumped more than 50% early Tuesday after the photonics technology company agreed to be acquired by MKS Instruments.

So what: Specifically, MKS will acquire Newport in an all-cash deal for $23 per share, valuing the company at roughly $980 million, and representing a roughly 53% premium to Monday's closing price. Based on the two companies' 2015 results, that will put the combined company at roughly $1.4 billion in pro forma annual revenue.
