Montrose Environmental (MEG) sells primarily to other companies and government agencies. The company provides a diverse range of environmental services, including assessment, consulting, engineering, and remediation, to clients across various industrial, commercial, and governmental sectors.

Based on their latest financial disclosures (Form 10-K), Montrose Environmental has a highly diversified customer base. No single customer accounted for more than 10% of their consolidated revenues for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, or 2021.

Therefore, Montrose Environmental does not have specific "major customers" in the sense of individual companies that contribute a significant, reportable portion (e.g., >10%) of their total revenue. The company serves a broad array of clients in industries such as:

• Utilities
• Energy (including oil and gas)

Montrose Environmental Group (NYSE: MEG) is expected to drive future revenue growth over the next 2-3 years through several key initiatives and market dynamics:

1. Robust Organic Growth

   Montrose Environmental anticipates continued strong organic revenue growth, with expectations at or above its long-term range of 7%–9% annually. This growth is broad-based across all three segments: Assessment, Permitting, and Response; Measurement and Analysis; and Remediation and Reuse. Particular strength is noted in laboratory and field services within Measurement and Analysis, and in treatment technology revenue in Remediation and Reuse. The company's investments in sales, marketing, and technology are expected to sustain this momentum.

2. Strategic Acquisitions (Resumption Post-Pause)

   While Montrose temporarily paused acquisitions to focus on balance sheet optimization and highlighting the strength of its core business, the company plans to restart acquisitions in 2026. These future acquisitions are intended to supplement organic growth and expand both capabilities and geographic reach, particularly in international and high-demand markets. Historically, acquisitions have been a significant contributor to revenue growth, with the company completing 26 acquisitions in the past, including 5 in 2024.

3. Increasing Demand Driven by Evolving Environmental Regulations and Client Needs

   Growing demand for Montrose's services is supported by increasingly complex environmental regulations at local, state, and international levels. This includes ongoing client focus on greenhouse gas identification, measurement, and mitigation, driven by state, international, and institutional requirements, despite potential shifts in U.S. federal policies. There is also significant demand for advanced solutions in emerging areas such as PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) and industrial water treatment.

4. Expansion of Proprietary Environmental Technologies and High-Margin Services

   Montrose's revenue growth is also expected to benefit from the expansion of its proprietary environmental technologies. This focus supports the delivery of higher-margin, differentiated services, particularly in areas like PFAS and industrial water treatment, which are in high demand. The company expects its water treatment business, for instance, to achieve margins near 20% and contribute significantly to overall profitability as it becomes a larger portion of the Remediation and Reuse segment.
