Dell plans to pay $24.05 per share plus shares in EMC’s company VMware, which are worth about nine dollars.
Thus, shares of EMC are valued at $33.15, which is 19 percent above the value they had on Friday at the closing of the stock exchange.
VMware, which specializes in “cloud” computing, previously a subsidiary of EMC, will remain an independent company.
Since 2013, when it became a private company that is not on the stock exchange Dell began investing in research and development in software and services.
