Company patents

Lowe's Companies, Inc.

Lowe's Companies, Inc.'s patent strategy reveals a surprising focus on computing technologies, with Image Processing dominating 41.8% of its portfolio, despite a significant -90.0% decline so far in 2026 after a 100.0% surge in 2025. While categories like Business Methods & Fintech and Network Security & Access Control saw rapid 200.0% growth in 2024, their subsequent sharp declines in 2025 and 2026 suggest a shifting priority away from these areas, with zero patents in Network Security & Access Control and Cryptographic Mechanisms so far in 2026.
