Cardinal Intellectual Property believes that accurate patent valuations require both qualitative and quantitative analyses. Qualitative Analysis considers the validity and scope of the claims along with other factors that affect the ability to assert or license the patent. Quantitative Analysis considers the current and anticipated market size as well as other economic factors. These are combined with metric assessments of the qualitative analysis to provide the valuation.

Areas Cardinal Intellectual Property takes into consideration for patent valuations:

MARKETABILITY ANALYSIS

Validity Assessment
A Validity Assessment helps determine the validity of a patent and its possible impact on the valuation.

Landscape Assessment
Assesses how the existing landscape of a technology can affect the value of a patent.

Foreign Patent Assessment
Patents filed outside of the US are researched to determine their effect on the patent valuation.

Assignee & Inventor Assessment
This assessment explores the assignee and inventor involvement within different patents. This may change the value of the patent depending on the reputation of the assignee or inventor.

Patent Family Assessment
Entire family of patents is examined to determine the value of the family or individual patent.

Licensing Data Assessment, Including Existing & Proposed
Determines how the licensing will affect the marketability of the patent valuation.

Royalties
A royalties assessment determines reasonable royalties by, for example, looking at the royalties of similar patents.

Cited, Related Patent & Derivative Invention Assessment
Determines how the landscape will affect the value of the patent.

References Cited & Other References Count
Assesses the number of times a particular reference is cited and uses that information to determine the value of the patent.

Portfolio Grouped Strength Assessment
Cardinal examines an entire patent portfolio to determine the impact it will have on valuation.
