Where TF3's grants concentrate

TF3 Limited is a focused PatentsView assignee: 1 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under A45D (Hairdressing OR Shaving Equipment ; Equipment FOR Cosmetics OR Cosmetic Treatments, e.g. FOR Manicuring OR Pedicuring). Peak complete grant year is 2017 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, TF3 sits between Teleport Mobility, Inc. and Thane IP Limited.

TF3's three-year grant acceleration

TF3 Limited 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.
