An Analysis of Operating Costs & Financial Benchmarks in the U.S. Pest Management Industry

This study, created in partnership with PCO Bookkeepers & M&A Specialists, presents a quantitative analysis of operating costs and financial performance within the U.S. pest management industry. The research is based on a comprehensive, cross-sectional dataset of financial statements and operational metrics from a diverse sample of pest management firms within the PCO Bookkeepers & M&A Specialists client universe and NPMA membership. 

The primary objective is to establish reliable, current financial benchmarks for key performance indicators (KPIs), including revenue metrics, cost of goods sold, gross margins, and specific operating expense categories. The findings are intended to serve as an empirical resource for firm owners, managers, and industry stakeholders to support strategic planning, operational assessment, and data-driven decision-making.
