Where Bardex's grants concentrate

Bardex Corporation is a focused PatentsView assignee: 16 CPC subclasses with 62.5% of grants classified under B63B (Ships OR Other Waterborne VESSELS; Equipment FOR Shipping). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2021. By volume, Bardex sits between Butler Engineering AND Marketing S.P.A. and Bio Capital Holdings, LLC.

Bardex's three-year grant acceleration

Bardex Corporation shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 9 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.
