Where Swiss's grants concentrate

Swiss Timing Ltd is a focused PatentsView assignee: 22 CPC subclasses with 59.3% of grants classified under A63B (Apparatus FOR Physical Training, Gymnastics, Swimming, Climbing, OR FENCING; Ball GAMES; Training Equipment). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (6 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Swiss sits between Stahls' Inc. and Tego, Inc..

Swiss's three-year grant acceleration

Swiss Timing Ltd shows 8 grants in 2022–2024 against only 10 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.
