Stupid question but, why would privatization be a good thing for stock holders?

gpt
It would only be a good thing if they purchased at a premium.  If the buy back price is $420, and the stock is valued at $410 - it would never go through. 
  
 But if the stock is valued at $380, and the buy back is $420, people are likely content taking a $40 premium per share and moving on.
