If I remember right, fleeing is treated exactly like the ship being destroyed by any other means, but without triggering certain on-destroy effects like Dead Man's Switch.

If an enemy ship with 1 hull crashed through an asteroid, rolled a hit, and died, you'd still get the points for it. Same deal with clipping the edge of the battlefield: the ship is destroyed and you get the points for it.
