Where Hooker's grants concentrate

Hooker Trust, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 7 CPC subclasses with 60% of grants classified under A01K (Animal HUSBANDRY; AVICULTURE; APICULTURE; PISCICULTURE; FISHING; Rearing OR Breeding Animals, NOT Otherwise Provided FOR; NEW Breeds OF Animals). Peak complete grant year is 2017 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2019. By volume, Hooker sits between Holy Stone Healthcare Co., Ltd. and Hortonworks, Inc..

Hooker's three-year grant acceleration

Hooker Trust, LLC shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 1 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.
