Where Altimmune's grants concentrate

Altimmune UK Limited is a focused PatentsView assignee: 6 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under A61P (SPECIFIC THERAPEUTIC ACTIVITY OF CHEMICAL COMPOUNDS OR MEDICINAL PREPARATIONS). Peak complete grant year is 2018 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Altimmune sits between Allen Engineering Corp. and Amina Technologies Limited.

Altimmune's three-year grant acceleration

Altimmune UK Limited shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 5 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
