Momentus has promise. I don't think they'll go full Virgin Galactic by going public, but it's reason to be a little worried.
It's interesting that they're designing their first tug both for rideshare on Falcon and dedicated launches on Relativity and Gilmour rockets. I guess it protects them from the possibility of SpaceX building tugs of their own, but I don't think pure kick stages for small rockets would be enough justify their business, especially when rideshare on large rockets would choke out some small launchers.
They have a handful of customers already, and if they can hold onto the rideshare tug market, they'll do well.
