Company patents

INNOVEX DOWNHOLE SOLUTIONS, INC.

INNOVEX DOWNHOLE SOLUTIONS, INC. surprisingly maintains an overwhelming focus on Drilling & Mining, representing 96.2% of its 52 patents, despite a consistent decline in new patent filings in this core area, with a -25.0% YoY drop in 2025 and a -66.7% drop so far in 2026. While minor interests in Valves and Electrical Connectors have appeared, their sporadic filing patterns suggest no clear emerging diversification strategy.
