Where Hodge's grants concentrate

Hodge Products, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 6 CPC subclasses with 40% of grants classified under G06Q (INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY [ICT] SPECIALLY ADAPTED FOR ADMINISTRATIVE, COMMERCIAL, FINANCIAL, MANAGERIAL OR SUPERVISORY PURPOSES; SYSTEMS OR METHODS SPECIALLY ADAPTED FOR ADMINISTRATIVE,). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Hodge sits between Hinsey's Pro Paint, Inc. and Hugel Inc..

Hodge's three-year grant acceleration

Hodge Products, Inc. shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 7 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.
