Little Rock, Arkansas (November 9, 2021) – Montrose Environmental Group, Inc. (the “Company,” “Montrose” or “MEG”) (NYSE: MEG) today announced results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2021.

Third Quarter 2021 Highlights

• Total revenue of $132.6 million increased 56.5% compared to the prior year quarter.

• Net income of $2.2 million compared to a net loss of $30.7 million in the prior year quarter, largely due to higher revenues and fair value adjustment charges in the prior year.

• Adjusted EBITDA¹ of $21.5 million increased 28.6% compared to the prior year quarter. Adjusted EBITDA margin¹ of 16.2%.

• Completed two strategically and financially accretive transactions in the third quarter.

First Nine Months 2021 Highlights

• Total revenue of $402.6 million increased 83.4% compared to the prior year period.

• Net loss of $23.9 million compared to a net loss of $58.8 million in the prior year period, primarily due to higher revenues and lower fair value adjustment charges in the current year versus the prior year.

• Adjusted EBITDA¹ of $59.2 million grew 63.9% compared to the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA margin¹ of 14.7%.

“We continue to experience strong performance across our business which was evident during the third quarter as it has been in prior quarters,” stated Vijay Manthripragada, Montrose’s Chief Executive Officer. “Though we are increasing our outlook for 2021 to reflect continued outperformance, we believe it is important to anchor on our base business including a more normalized CTEH as that will be the basis for our 2022 outlook. Because Montrose continues to benefit from broader industry tailwinds and our unique strategy and position within the environmental industry, our long term outlook remains optimistic.”

Mr. Manthripragada continued, “We remain pleased to see the continued focus on environmental stewardship by investors, by capital markets, and by our clients, which we expect will drive additional demand for our environmental solutions

* Leverage is calculated under Montrose’s credit agreement, pro forma for the follow-on offering completed in October 2021. As of September 30, 2021, without giving effect to the follow-on offering, Montrose’s leverage ratio under its credit facility, which includes the impact of acquisition-related contingent earnout payments that may become payable in cash, was 2.8 times.

(1) Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are non-GAAP measures. See the appendix to this release for a discussion of these measures, including how they are calculated and the reasons why we believe they provide useful information to investors, and a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

in the years ahead. I am particularly grateful to my team for their continued efforts as these great results belong to all of them.”

Third Quarter 2021 Results

Total revenue in the third quarter of 2021 increased 56.5% to $132.6 million compared to $84.7 million in the prior year quarter. The increase in revenues was primarily driven by organic growth in our Assessment, Permitting and Response and Remediation and Reuse segments, partially offset by a decrease in revenues in our Measurement and Analysis segment. Third quarter revenue growth also benefited from the acquisitions of MSE Group, LLC (MSE) in January 2021, Vista Analytical Laboratory, Inc. (Vista) in June 2021, and Environmental Intelligence, LLC (EI) in July 2021.

Net income was $2.2 million, compared to a net loss of $30.7 million in the prior year quarter. The year-over-year change was primarily attributable to higher revenues in the current year and fair value adjustment charges in the prior year related to contingent earn-out obligations and the Series A-2 preferred stock.

Adjusted EBITDA¹ increased to $21.5 million, compared to $16.7 million in the prior year quarter. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA¹ was driven by higher revenues. Adjusted EBITDA margin¹ declined 350 basis points to 16.2% compared to 19.7% in the prior year quarter, mainly due to business mix, particularly the lower margin pandemic response services provided by CTEH, and the planned and expected normalization of margins in certain business lines following temporary cost mitigation actions taken at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, which have been reversed.

First Nine Months 2021 Results

Total revenue in the first nine months of 2021 increased 83.4% to $402.6 million compared to $219.5 million in the prior year period. Excluding discontinued services, which generated no revenue and $3.8 million in the 2021 and 2020 periods, respectively, total revenue increased 86.7%. The increase in revenue was driven by a full nine-month period including the results of CTEH and organic growth across all three of our segments, as well as the acquisitions of MSE, Vista, and EI.

Net loss was $23.9 million compared to a net loss of $58.8 million in the prior year period. The year-over-year difference in net loss primarily reflected higher revenues in the current year and significantly lower fair value charges related to the Series A-2 preferred stock.

Adjusted EBITDA¹ increased 63.9% to $59.2 million compared to $36.2 million in the prior year period. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA¹ was due to higher revenues. Adjusted EBITDA margin¹ declined 180 basis points to 14.7%, compared to 16.5% in the prior year mainly due to business mix, public company costs in the current year that existed during only a portion of the prior year, and the planned and expected normalization of margins in certain business lines following the reversal of COVID-19 related initiatives.

Operating Cash Flow Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash flow from operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $13.7 million compared to cash used in operating activities of $3.9 million in the prior year period. Cash flow from operations includes payment of contingent consideration of $15.5 million and $6.4 million in current and prior year periods, respectively. Excluding acquisition-related contingent earnout payments, which are not part of day-to-day operations, cash flow from operating activities was $29.2 million compared to a cash flow of $2.5 million in the prior year period, an increase of $26.7 million. The period-over-period increase was primarily due to higher year-to-date earnings before non-cash items and cloud computing costs of $2.4 million in the prior year. These

increases were partially offset by an increase in working capital of $17.6 million versus the prior year change in working capital. The increase in working capital in the current year is a result of an increase in accounts receivable and contract assets of $12.5 million, driven by higher revenues, an increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $1.8 million, and lower accounts payable and other accrued liabilities of $3.4 million.

At September 30, 2021, Montrose had total debt, before debt issuance costs, of $212.0 million and $16.0 million of cash. As of September 30, 2021, Montrose’s leverage ratio under its credit facility, which includes the impact of acquisition-related contingent earnout payments that may become payable in cash was 2.8 times. Pro forma for the follow-on stock issuance in October 2021, Montrose’s leverage ratio was 0.8 times.

In October 2021, Montrose completed a public offering of 2,875,000 shares of its common stock, raising approximately $169.8 million, net of underwriting discounts and commissions. The proceeds from the offering will be used for general corporate purposes, including, among other things, funding acquisitions and business expansion, working capital, capital expenditures such as investments in research, development and software, or the repayment of debt. Following the public offering, Montrose had $273.8 million of liquidity, including $148.8 million of cash and $125 million of availability on its revolving credit facility.

Recent Acquisitions

In October 2021, Montrose acquired Environmental Chemistry, Inc. (“ECI”), an environmental laboratory with a focus on Texas and the US gulf coast region. ECI is part of the Company’s Measurement and Analysis segment.

In November 2021, Montrose acquired Horizon Water and Environment, LLC (“Horizon”), an environmental consulting firm. Horizon deepens Montrose’s water resource knowledge and relationships in the Western US. Horizon is part of the Company’s Assessment, Permitting and Response Segment.

Full Year 2021 Outlook

Because demand for environmental services does not follow fiscal quarter patterns, the Company’s business is best assessed on yearly results. Given the outperformance of CTEH, continued organic growth across its segments, and the contribution of completed acquisitions, the Company now expects full year 2021 Adjusted EBITDA¹ to be in the range of $75 million to $80 million, which is increased from its prior full year 2021 guidance of $70.0 million to $75.0 million in Adjusted EBITDA¹.

Given the emergency response dynamic and impact of CTEH’s performance in 2021, the Company expects to initiate 2022 guidance based off its base business and a more normalized CTEH, taking into consideration acquisitions completed in 2021 and continued organic growth acceleration across other business lines.

The Company’s outlook continues to be based on a combination of high single digit organic growth plus the contribution of completed acquisitions. The outlook does not include any benefit from future acquisitions that have not yet been completed.

Webcast and Conference Call

The Company’s senior management will host a webcast and conference call on Wednesday, November 10, 2021 at 8:30 a.m. Eastern time to discuss third quarter financial results. Their prepared remarks will be

followed by a question and answer session. A live webcast of the conference call will be available in the Investors section of the Montrose website at www.montrose-env.com.

For those who are unable to listen to the live broadcast, an audio replay of the conference call will be available on the Montrose website for 30 days.

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 Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin. We calculate 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. Adjusted EBITDA margin represents Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenues for a given period.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are two 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. 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, as well as items that may differ significantly depending on long-term strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which we operate and capital investments.

These non-GAAP measures do, however, have certain limitations and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin 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, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin 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 Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin in conjunction with the related GAAP measures.

Additionally, we have provided estimates regarding Adjusted EBITDA for 2021. These projections account for estimates of revenue, operating margins and corporate and other costs. However, we cannot reconcile our projection of 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 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, fair value changes and the accounting for the issuance of the Series A-2 preferred stock. We expect the variability of these items could have a significant impact on our reported GAAP financial results.
