The price will be what they pay the day the exchange is made. STB has about $98 million book value according to their last earnings release. At $16 3dfx, the deal was valued at $141 million. That means over $40 million dollars that has to be applied to assets. Now STB has a great deal of inventory which could have a higher value (maybe as chips go down in value), but they have very little else that would get a mark-up. So I expect some goodwill from the deal.
