Company patents
KMW INC.
KMW INC. surprisingly shows a significant, albeit fluctuating, commitment to Antennas, representing 65.3% of its portfolio, with a dramatic 124.1% YoY growth in 2024 followed by declines in 2025 and so far in 2026. While manufacturing-related categories like Mounting Frames & Stands and Fasteners are emerging with 200.0% YoY growth in 2026, the company appears to be shifting away from Electrical Connectors, which saw a 50.0% YoY decline in 2024 and another 50.0% decline so far in 2026.
