Company patents
ABLIC Inc.
ABLIC INC's patent strategy reveals a surprising volatility, with significant year-over-year fluctuations across its core areas. While Electrical Measurement remains its largest category at 20.8% of its portfolio, its patenting in this area saw a sharp decline of 84.6% so far in 2026, following an 85.7% increase in 2025, indicating an unpredictable R&D focus. Similarly, Power Distribution & Storage, representing 14.6% of its portfolio, experienced a dramatic 300.0% growth in 2025, only to see a 50.0% decline so far in 2026, suggesting a reactive rather than consistently strategic approach to innovation.
