Portfolio overview

WHG Properties, Llc has been granted 221 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing WHG Properties, Llc at rank #1,834 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 15 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 8.0 claims per patent with primary concentration in F41A (FUNCTIONAL FEATURES OR DETAILS COMMON TO BOTH SMALLARMS AND ORDNANCE, e.g. CANNONS; MOUNTINGS FOR SMALLARMS OR ORDNANCE). As a US Corporation, WHG Properties, Llc is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, WHG sits between Cohesity, Inc. (221 patents, rank #1,830) and UBE Industries, Ltd. (220 patents, rank #1,838) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 40.2/100 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 88 grants, compared with 133 in the 2015–2019 window, a -34% 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. WHG Properties, Llc's 8.0 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while concentration in 15 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark WHG Properties, Llc against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
