I'm pretty sure they are billed 1 full fare and one free fare(put there's taxes and fees on the free fare still). But just call the companion ticketing number and they can tell you for sure. However, the fare for the 1 paid ticket using the companion certificate is sometimes double what you could get buying a ticket if that matters to the company. Also, sometimes you have to go through a particular travel agency or special redemption number to use the companion certificate, which some business travel depts won't do.
