&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•2026 revenue guidance: expect in a range of $840.0 million to $900.0 million, representing approximately 8% organic growth at the midpoint compared to full-year 2025. This revenue outlook does not include any benefit from future acquisitions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Plan to restart smaller, bolt-on and highly accretive acquisitions over the course of 2026, subject to valuation, capital allocation priorities and leverage

Little Rock, Arkansas (February 25, 2026) – Montrose Environmental Group, Inc. (the "Company," "Montrose" or "MEG") (NYSE: MEG) is on a mission to help protect the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the soil that sustains us to enhance environmental stewardship while supporting economic development. Today, the Company announced results for the fourth quarter and full year periods ended December 31, 2025.

Montrose Chief Executive Officer and Director, Vijay Manthripragada, commented, "Over a year ago, we announced a pause in acquisitions to highlight the quality and durability of our business. We also shared our expectation that US regulatory volatility would create more tailwinds than headwinds given our unique business model and global client focus. As we reflect on our focused execution in 2025, our business outperformed and exceeded every major objective. We delivered 13% organic revenue growth, expanded EBITDA margins, and generated record cash flow with 75% Free cash flow<sup>1</sup> conversion. Our cash flow generation outperformance resulted in 2025 year-end leverage approximately 0.5x lower than our forecast at the start of 2025. We also accelerated cross-selling across our platform, expanded our IP portfolio, and attracted incredible talent, all of which position us very well for 2026 and beyond."

Mr. Manthripragada continued, "As we look to 2026, we're in a strong position to strategically restart smaller, bolt-on and highly accretive acquisitions. Our balance sheet and cash flow give us flexibility, the acquisition pipeline is

aligned to our core capabilities, and we will remain disciplined with capital allocation. We see acquisitions as a multiplier to already robust organic growth and continued margin expansion in 2026."

**Full Year 2026 Outlook**

The Company expects a 2026 Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA<sup>1</sup> range of $125.0 million to $130.0 million with an approximately 100 basis-point expansion of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA<sup>1</sup> as a percentage of revenue in 2026 as compared to 2025. The Company announced an expected 2026 revenue range of $840.0 million to $900.0 million, which includes expected annual emergency response revenue of $50.0 million to $70.0 million. Expected 2026 revenue at the midpoint represents approximately 8% organic growth. These Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA<sup>1</sup> and revenue outlooks do not include any benefit from future acquisitions.

In 2026, the Company intends to resume acquisitions, subject to valuation, balance sheet priorities and maintaining leverage sensitivity. In 2025, Montrose generated significant cash flow and is committed to converting at least 60% of its annual Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA<sup>1</sup> to operating cash flow in 2026. Cash flow will continue to be strategically allocated to fund a significant portion of its organic growth, capital expenditures, acquisitions, and share repurchases, and Montrose will maintain a prudent leverage ratio and strong balance sheet.

**Fourth Quarter 2025 Results**

Revenue in the fourth quarter of 2025 was $193.3 million compared to $189.1 million in the prior-year quarter, an increase of $4.2 million, or 2.2%, primarily due to organic revenue growth of $9.1 million and lower environmental emergency response revenue. Organic revenue growth was primarily due to the $12.8 million increase in our Assessment, Permitting and Response segment, partially offset by lower revenue of $4.4 million in our Measurement and Analysis segment due to project timing. Environmental emergency response revenue was $3.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to $7.5 million in the prior-year quarter.

Loss from operations in the fourth quarter of 2025 improved due to strong revenue growth and a decrease of $20.9 million in stock based compensation expense, primarily related to the expensing of the unamortized value of executive stock appreciation rights (SARs) that were cancelled in the prior year period, partially offset by lower margin in the Remediation and Reuse segment, primarily due to winding down the renewables business, and lower margin in the Measurement and Analysis segment, primarily due to lower revenue. Net loss in the fourth quarter of 2025 improved to $8.2 million, or $0.23 LPS, compared to a net loss of $28.2 million, or $0.90 LPS, in the prior-year quarter. This $20.0 million year-over-year improvement in net loss primarily resulted from improved operating profitability and lower income tax expense. The $0.67 comparative period improvement in LPS was due to improved net loss, the elimination of the Series A-2 dividend following full redemption of the remaining aggregate amount of the preferred equity instrument on July 1, 2025, and an increase in weighted average diluted common shares outstanding.

Adjusted Net Income<sup>1</sup>and Adj EPS<sup>1</sup> in the fourth quarter of 2025 were $13.5 million and $0.35, respectively, compared to $14.7 million and $0.29, respectively, in the prior-year quarter. Adjusted Net Income<sup>1</sup> decreased due to lower operating margins in the current period, with Adj EPS<sup>1</sup> in the current period benefiting from the elimination of the Series A-2 dividend and lower fully diluted common shares outstanding.

Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA<sup>1</sup> in the fourth quarter of 2025 was $23.9 million, or 12.4% of revenue, compared to $27.2 million, or 14.4% of revenue, in the prior-year quarter. The decrease in Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA<sup>1</sup> and Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA<sup>1</sup> as a percentage of revenue resulted primarily from lower operating margins in the Measurement and Analysis and Remediation and Reuse segments. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA<sup>1</sup> as a percentage of revenue was further impacted by segment revenue mix, due to a reduction in higher margin revenue in our Measurement and Analysis segment that offset the revenue increase in our Assessment, Permitting, and Response segment.

**Full-Year 2025 Results**

Revenue in 2025 was $830.5 million, compared to $696.4 million in the prior year, an increase of $134.1 million, or 19.3%. This increase was primarily driven by strong organic revenue growth in all three segments totaling $81.8 million, or 12.7%; incremental revenue from environmental emergency responses of $29.0 million; and $25.5 million in contributions from acquisitions completed in 2024. Revenue from environmental emergency responses was $77.0 million in 2025, compared to $48.0 million in the prior year.

------

Income from operations in 2025 increased by $48.4 million due to strong organic revenue growth, favorable segment revenue mix and operating leverage, slightly offset by $9.2 million of incremental selling, general and administrative expense due primarily to higher bonus expenses. Net loss in 2025 was $0.8 million, or $0.14 LPS, a significant improvement as compared to a net loss of $62.3 million, or $2.22 LPS, in the prior year. This $61.5 million year-over-year improvement in net loss primarily resulted from the increase in income from operations, and a $20.2 million fair value gain related to the Series A-2 preferred stock redemption, partially offset by higher interest and income tax expenses. The $2.08 comparative period improvement in LPS primarily resulted from lower net loss, lower Series A-2 dividends, and an increase in weighted average diluted common shares outstanding.

Adjusted Net Income<sup>1</sup> and Adj EPS<sup>1</sup> in 2025 were $60.7 million and $1.36, respectively, compared to $55.8 million and $1.08, respectively, in the prior year. Adjusted Net Income<sup>1</sup> increased due to higher revenues and margins, partially offset by higher interest and income tax expenses. Adj EPS<sup>1</sup> in the current period benefited from the elimination of the Series A-2 dividend.

Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA<sup>1</sup> in 2025 was $116.2 million, compared to $95.8 million in the prior year. The $20.4 million increase in Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA<sup>1</sup> was primarily due to higher revenue in all three segments. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA<sup>1</sup> as a percentage of revenue increased to 14.0% primarily due to strong operating performance and incremental environmental emergency response revenue, partially offset by higher corporate expenses, primarily due to higher bonus expenses of $7.2 million, driven by outperformance in the current year versus the prior year, and a $4.4 million loss associated with winding down the renewable energy service within the Remediation and Reuse segment.

**Operating Cash Flow, Liquidity and Capital Resources**

In 2025, the Company used cash on hand and borrowings under its 2025 Credit Facility to voluntarily fully redeem all remaining $122.2 million of Series A-2 Preferred Stock.

Net cash provided by operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2025, was $107.5 million, compared to $22.2 million in the prior year period. This $85.2 million improvement was primarily due to an increase in earnings before non-cash items of $29.8 million and improved working capital performance of $55.2 million. Free cash flow<sup>1</sup> generation during the year ended December 31, 2025, was $87.0 million.

As of December 31, 2025, Montrose's leverage ratio under the 2025 Credit Facility was 2.5x. As of December 31, 2025, Montrose had $225.4 million of available liquidity, including $11.2 million of cash and $214.2 million of availability on its revolving line of credit.

**Non-GAAP Financial Information** 

In addition to our results under GAAP, in this release we also present certain other supplemental financial measures of financial performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP, including, Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Basic and Diluted Adj EPS. We calculate Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense, income tax expense (benefit) and depreciation and amortization, adjusted for the impact of certain other items, including stock-based compensation expense and acquisition-related costs, as set forth in greater detail in the table below. We calculate Adjusted Net Income as net income (loss) before amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation expense, fair value changes to financial instruments and contingent earnouts, discontinued specialty lab, and other gain or losses, as set forth in greater detail in the table below. Basic Adj EPS represents Adjusted Net Income attributable to stockholders divided by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the applicable period. Diluted Adj EPS represents Adjusted Net Income attributable to stockholders divided by the fully diluted number of shares of common stock outstanding during the applicable period. Free cash flow is defined as the sum of net cash provided by (used in) operating activities and net cash used in investing activities, adjusted for the impact of certain other items, including purchase price true ups, minority investments, cash paid for acquisitions, net of cash acquired; and dividend payments to the Series A-2 holders.

Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is one of the primary metrics used by management to evaluate our financial performance and compare it to that of our peers, evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies, make budgeting and capital allocation decisions and in connection with our executive incentive compensation. Adjusted Net Income and Basic and Diluted Adj EPS are useful metrics to evaluate ongoing business performance after interest and tax. These measures are also frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry. Further, we believe they are helpful in highlighting trends in our operating results because they allow for more consistent comparisons of financial performance between periods by excluding gains and losses that are non-operational in nature or outside the control of management, and, in the case of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, by excluding items that may differ significantly depending on long-term strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which we operate and capital investments. Free cash flow is used by management as one of the means by which it assesses cash generation in excess of ongoing capital needs of the business.

These non-GAAP measures do, however, have certain limitations and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss), earnings (loss) per share or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP. Our presentation of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Basic and Diluted Adj EPS should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items for which we may make adjustments. In addition, Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Basic and Diluted Adj EPS may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies in our industry or across different industries, and other companies may not present these or similar measures. Management compensates for these limitations by using these measures as supplemental financial metrics and in conjunction with our results prepared in accordance with GAAP. We encourage investors and others to review our financial information in its entirety, not to rely on any single measure and to view Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Basic and Diluted Adj EPS in conjunction with the related GAAP measures. Free cash flow has certain limitations and should not be considered as an alternative to or in isolation from net cash provided by (used in) operating activities or any other measure of cash flow generation calculated in accordance with GAAP. In evaluating Free cash flow, you should be aware that Free cash flow does not represent residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures.

Additionally, we have provided estimates regarding Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA for 2026. These projections account for estimates of revenue, operating margins and corporate and other costs. However, we cannot reconcile our projection of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP measure, without unreasonable efforts because of the unpredictable or unknown nature of certain significant items excluded from Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and the resulting difficulty in quantifying the amounts thereof that are necessary to estimate net income (loss). Specifically, we are unable to estimate for the future impact of certain items, including income tax (expense) benefit, stock-based compensation expense, and fair value changes. We expect the variability of these items could have a significant impact on our reported GAAP financial results.

In this release we also reference our organic growth. We define organic growth as the change in revenues excluding revenues from i) our environmental emergency response business, ii) acquisitions for the first twelve months following the date of acquisition, and iii) businesses held for sale, disposed of or discontinued. Management uses organic growth as one of the means by which it assesses our results of operations. Organic growth is not, however, a measure of revenue growth calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, and should

------

be considered in conjunction with revenue growth calculated in accordance with GAAP. We have grown organically over the long term and expect to continue to do so.

In a given reporting period, when we refer to revenue changes driven by acquisitions, we are referring to the revenue contribution from any acquisition from its closing date through the first 12 months of that acquisition, at which point any subsequent contribution therefrom would be organic.
