How to do patent evaluation?

I. Patent Evaluation Patent evaluation refers to the act of confirming, evaluating and reporting patent rights according to specific purposes and following fair and legal standards and procedures, so as to provide a value scale for asset business. Patent evaluation, as an important intellectual property right of enterprises, belongs to intangible assets evaluation. Second, the method of patent evaluation According to the characteristics of patents, the purpose of evaluation and the external market environment, patent evaluation can adopt three methods: cost method, income method and market method. Precautions of three evaluation methods: 1, Precautions of cost method: (1) The replacement cost method of patent should include the reasonable interests of the developer or obligee. (2) Functional devaluation and economic devaluation. 2. Matters needing attention in the income method: (1) reasonably determine the expected income brought by the patent, and analyze the expected changes and income period related to it, the costs and expenses related to the income, supporting assets, cash flow, risk factors and the time value of money; (2) It is convinced that the sum of income allocated to various assets, including patents, does not exceed the income brought by the total assets of the enterprise; (3) The expected income is consistent with the discount rate; Generally speaking, the discount period is the shorter of economic life and legal life; (4) When the predicted trend is obviously inconsistent with the actual situation, analyze the reasons for the difference. 3. Matters needing attention in market law: (1) Determine the patent on the basis of reasonable comparison; (2) Collect the market information of similar patent transactions and the previous transaction information of the evaluated patent; (3) The price information is representative and effective on the evaluation benchmark date; (4) According to the changes of macro-economy, industry and patent situation, and considering the time factor, make necessary adjustments to the past transaction information of the evaluated patent. Three. The purpose of patent evaluation (1) is to increase the patent right by 65,438+0, which solves the difficulty for enterprises to invest all monetary funds, and frees up some monetary funds for the daily operation of enterprises or the continuous research and development of new technologies; 2. A legal person organization or natural person who owns intellectual property rights but does not have enough funds to operate can invest its intellectual property rights in the company through joint ventures and cooperation with others. Article 27 of the Company Law stipulates that the monetary contribution of all shareholders of a limited liability company shall not be less than 30% of the registered capital. From another point of view, the highest proportion of intangible assets contributed by the company is 70%. In other words, for the registered capital of100000, we can contribute 3 million (30%) in cash, 7 million (70%) in intangible assets, and so on. Realize the market-oriented operation of independent intellectual property rights and control the company's equity; 3. Solve the market requirements for registered capital when enterprises bid for projects; 4. Enterprises can capitalize on intellectual property rights. (2) In enterprises with patent financing and pledge loans mainly based on technology, intangible assets such as patents can be fully capitalized in operation, and the advanced nature and independence of their technology in the industry field can be used as an important basis for attracting investment. China's relevant laws also stipulate that intangible assets such as patents and trademark rights can be used as pledges to pledge loans in financial service institutions such as banks, which has revitalized a large number of intangible assets for enterprises. (3) The transfer of patent achievements and external rights protection provide a strong value basis for the patentee to cash in the research and development achievements, and clarify the capitalization value of patent achievements in the market. At the same time, it provides professional protection for patentees and enterprises in foreign-related rights protection. Steps of patent evaluation: communication between the patentee and the evaluation institution in the early stage-determining the purpose and scope of patent evaluation-negotiating the fees according to the national charging standards-The evaluation institution sends a team to inspect the patent research and development on site-Collecting the information needed for patent evaluation-Returning after collecting the patent evaluation information-The evaluation institution writes a report-Communicating with the patentee by issuing a draft evaluation report-Issuing an official version of the report to collect the remaining evaluation fees. To sum up, patent evaluation is different from general evaluation. It has a special evaluation agency, appropriate methods and strict procedures. Patent evaluation itself is not a bad thing, which can not only increase the capital of patent, but also improve the credibility of patent.
