Where Gauthier's grants concentrate

Gauthier Biomedical, Inc is a focused PatentsView assignee: 14 CPC subclasses with 26% of grants classified under B25G (Handles FOR Hand Implements). Peak complete grant year is 2017 (10 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2024. By volume, Gauthier sits between Gema Switzerland GMBH and Hoffman Enclosures Inc..

Gauthier's three-year grant acceleration

Gauthier Biomedical, Inc shows 12 grants in 2022–2024 against only 17 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.
