Peak complete grant year is 2016 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, Central sits between Cellceutix Corporation and Ceragon Networks Ltd..

Central's three-year grant acceleration

Central Lake Armor Express, Inc. shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 0 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.
