Portfolio overview

M&G USA Corporation has been granted 7 US utility patents between 2015 and 2017, placing M&G USA Corporation at rank #36,312 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 14 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 15.6 claims per patent with primary concentration in C08L (COMPOSITIONS OF MACROMOLECULAR COMPOUNDS). As a US Corporation, M&G USA Corporation is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, M&g sits between Lysosomal Therapeutics Inc. (7 patents, rank #36,308) and M.a.e. S.p.a. (7 patents, rank #36,316) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 29.8/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.

Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 0 grants, compared with 7 in the 2015–2019 window, a -100% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. The US Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.

Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. M&G USA Corporation's 15.6 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 14 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark M&G USA Corporation against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

Check what the four-part Innovation Score actually rewards before comparing it to another company. How the score works

Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
