Abstract

In previous research, large companies were analyzed to focus on their past management performance and patent rights, but in this study we looked at the variability in future sales of small and medium-sized enterprises with patents through empirical analysis. We looked at how the quantitative and qualitative value of patent rights affect management performance of company. We used 'the number of patents' as the quantitative value of patents, 'the average score of patents' as the qualitative value of patents, and the average sales growth rate as the management performance of company. Through a discriminant analysis using the statistical program SPSS, both independent variables used in this study were significant for distinguishing between companies with an average growth in sales more than twice that of general small and medium-sized enterprises and those with less than twice the average sales growth rate. Therefore it is meaningful to provide stakeholders with an analysis framework on how sales will change in the future using the results of this study during guarantee or loan screening for small and medium-sized enterprises with patent rights.

그동안은 규모가 큰 기업 위주의 분석과 과거 경영실적과 특허권의 관계위주의 분석을 했으나, 본 연구에서는 실증분석을 통해 중소기업을 대상으로 특허를 보유한 기업의 미래 매출액 변동성에 대해 살펴보았다. 본 연구에서는 지식재산권인 특허권의 양적가치와 질적가치가 기업경영성과에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 특허의 양적가치로는 특허의 수를, 질적가치는 특허평균점수를 기업경영성과로는 평균매출액증가율을 사용하였다. SPSS를 이용한 판별분석을 통해 2가지 독립변수 모두 평균매출액 증가율이 2배 이상인 기업과 2배 미만인 기업을 구분하는데 유의적인 변수임을 확인하였다. 따라서 특허권 보유 중소기업에 대해 보증심사나 여신심사시 본 연구결과를 이용하여 향후 매출액이 어떻게 변경될지에 대한 분석의 틀을 이해관계자에게 제공한다는데 의의가 있다.
