Part I. Financial Information
IRON MOUNTAIN INCORPORATED
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(In thousands, except share and per share data) (Unaudited)
1. GENERAL
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Iron Mountain Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (“IMI”), and its subsidiaries (“we” or “us”), have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, but we believe that the disclosures included herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements are presented herein and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair presentation. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto, which are included herein, should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2020 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 24, 2021 (our “Annual Report”).
We have been organized and have operated as a real estate investment trust for United States federal income tax purposes (“REIT”) beginning with our taxable year ended December 31, 2014.
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared a novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) a pandemic. The preventative and protective actions that governments have ordered, or we or our customers have implemented, have resulted in a period of reduced service operations and business disruption for us, our customers and other third parties with which we do business. The broader impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows, including impacts to the estimates we use in the preparation of our financial statements, remain uncertain and difficult to predict as information continues to evolve, and the severity and duration of the pandemic remains unknown, as is our visibility of its effect on the markets we serve and our customers within those markets.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. CASH, CASH EQUIVALENTS AND RESTRICTED CASH
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and cash invested in highly liquid short-term securities, which have remaining maturities at the date of purchase of less than 90 days. Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value.
B. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts and a credit memo reserve for estimated losses resulting from the potential inability of our customers to make required payments and potential disputes regarding billing and service issues. Rollforward of allowance for doubtful accounts and credit memo reserves for the three months ended March 31, 2021 is as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | | |
| | Balance as of December 31, 2020 | | $ | 56,981 | | | | | | |

M. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740) (“ASU 2019-12”). ASU 2019-12 simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions for recognizing deferred taxes for investments, performing intra-period allocation and calculating income taxes in interim periods. ASU 2019-12 also adds guidance to reduce complexity in certain areas, including recognizing deferred taxes for tax goodwill and allocating taxes to members of a consolidated group. We adopted ASU 2019-12 on January 1, 2021. ASU 2019-12 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

3. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
Derivative instruments we are party to include: (i) interest rate swap agreements (which are designated as cash flow hedges) and (ii) cross-currency swap agreements (which are designated as net investment hedges).
INTEREST RATE SWAP AGREEMENTS DESIGNATED AS CASH FLOW HEDGES
In March 2018, we entered into interest rate swap agreements to limit our exposure to changes in interest rates on a portion of our floating rate indebtedness. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had $350,000 in notional value of interest rate swap agreements outstanding, which expire in March 2022. Under the interest rate swap agreements, we receive variable rate interest payments associated with the notional amount of each interest rate swap, based upon one-month LIBOR, in exchange for the payment of fixed interest rates as specified in the interest rate swap agreements.
In July 2019, we entered into forward-starting interest rate swap agreements to limit our exposure to changes in interest rates on a portion of our floating rate indebtedness once our current interest rate swap agreements expire in March 2022. The forward-starting interest rate swap agreements have $350,000 in notional value, commence in March 2022 and expire in March 2024. Under the forward-starting interest rate swap agreements, we will receive variable rate interest payments based upon one-month LIBOR, in exchange for the payment of fixed interest rates as specified in the interest rate swap agreements.
We have designated these interest rate swap agreements, including the forward-starting interest rate swap agreements, as cash flow hedges. Unrealized gains are recognized as assets, while unrealized losses are recognized as liabilities.
CROSS-CURRENCY SWAP AGREEMENTS DESIGNATED AS A HEDGE OF NET INVESTMENT
In August 2019, we entered into cross-currency swap agreements to hedge the variability of exchange rate impacts between the United States dollar and the Euro. Under the terms of the cross-currency swap agreements, we notionally exchanged approximately $110,000 at an interest rate of 6.0% for approximately 99,055 Euros at a weighted average interest rate of approximately 3.65%. These cross-currency swap agreements expire in August 2023 (“August 2023 Cross Currency Swap Agreements”).
In September 2020, we entered into cross-currency swap agreements to hedge the variability of exchange rate impacts between the United States dollar and the Euro. Under the terms of the cross-currency swap agreements, we notionally exchanged approximately $359,200 at an interest rate of 4.5% for approximately 300,000 Euros at a weighted average interest rate of approximately 3.4%. These cross-currency swap agreements expire in February 2026 (“February 2026 Cross Currency Swap Agreements”).
We have designated these cross-currency swap agreements as hedge of net investments against certain of our Euro denominated subsidiaries and they require an exchange of the notional amounts at maturity. These cross-currency swap agreements are marked to market at each reporting period, representing the fair values of the cross-currency swap agreements, and any changes in fair value are recognized as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive items, net. Unrealized gains are recognized as assets while unrealized losses are recognized as liabilities. These swaps are all deemed to be effective hedges and, therefore, all unrealized changes in fair value are included as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive items, net.
(Liabilities) assets recognized in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, by derivative instrument, are as follows:

(1)Our derivative assets are included as a component of Other within Other assets, net and our derivative liabilities are included as a component of Other long-term liabilities in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
(2)As of March 31, 2021, cumulative net losses of $16,861 are recorded within Accumulated other comprehensive items, net associated with these interest rate swap agreements.
(3)As of March 31, 2021, cumulative net losses of $17,636 are recorded within Accumulated other comprehensive items, net associated with these cross-currency swap agreements.

EURO NOTES DESIGNATED AS A HEDGE OF NET INVESTMENT
Prior to their redemption in August 2020, we designated a portion of our previously outstanding 3% Euro Senior Notes due 2025 (the “Euro Notes”) as a hedge of net investment of certain of our Euro denominated subsidiaries. From January 1, 2020 through March 31, 2020, we designated 300,000 Euros of our Euro Notes as a hedge of net investment of certain of our Euro denominated subsidiaries. As a result, we recorded foreign exchange (gains) losses related to the change in fair value of such debt due to currency translation adjustments as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive items, net.
Foreign exchange gains (losses) associated with this hedge of net investment for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 are as follows:

The Credit Agreement is scheduled to mature on June 3, 2023. All of the outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility as of March 31, 2021 were denominated in United States dollars. In addition, we also had various outstanding letters of credit totaling $3,219. The remaining amount available for borrowing under the Revolving Credit Facility as of March 31, 2021 was $1,686,781 (which amount represents the maximum availability as of such date). The average interest rate in effect under the Credit Agreement was 1.9% as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020.
(2)Collectively, the “Parent Notes”.
(3)The full amount outstanding under the Accounts Receivable Securitization Program is classified within the current portion of long-term debt in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020.
See Note 6 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report for additional information regarding the Credit Agreement and our other long-term debt, including the direct obligors of each of our debt instruments as well as information regarding the fair value of our debt instruments (including the levels of the fair value hierarchy used to determine the fair value of our debt instruments). The levels of the fair value hierarchy used to determine the fair value of our debt as of March 31, 2021 are consistent with the levels of the fair value hierarchy used to determine the fair value of our debt as of December 31, 2020 (which are disclosed in our Annual Report).

CASH POOLING
We currently utilize two separate cash pooling arrangements, one of which we utilize to manage global liquidity requirements for our qualified REIT subsidiaries (the “QRS Cash Pool”) and the other for our taxable REIT subsidiaries (the “TRS Cash Pool”). The approximate amount of the net cash position for the QRS Cash Pool and the TRS Cash Pool and the approximate amount of the gross position and outstanding debit balances for each of these pools as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 are as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

The net cash position balances as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 are reflected as cash and cash equivalents in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
LETTERS OF CREDIT
As of March 31, 2021, we had outstanding letters of credit totaling $38,160, of which $3,219 reduce our borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility (as described above). The letters of credit expire at various dates between June 2021 and March 2025.
DEBT COVENANTS
The Credit Agreement, our bond indentures and other agreements governing our indebtedness contain certain restrictive financial and operating covenants, including covenants that restrict our ability to complete acquisitions, pay cash dividends, incur indebtedness, make investments, sell assets and take certain other corporate actions. The covenants do not contain a rating trigger. Therefore, a change in our debt rating would not trigger a default under the Credit Agreement, our bond indentures or other agreements governing our indebtedness. The Credit Agreement requires that we satisfy a fixed charge coverage ratio, a net total lease adjusted leverage ratio and a net secured debt lease adjusted leverage ratio on a quarterly basis and our bond indentures require that, among other things, we satisfy a leverage ratio (not lease adjusted) or a fixed charge coverage ratio (not lease adjusted), as a condition to taking actions such as paying dividends and incurring indebtedness.
The Credit Agreement uses EBITDAR-based calculations and the bond indentures use EBITDA-based calculations as the primary measures of financial performance for purposes of calculating leverage and fixed charge coverage ratios. The bond indenture EBITDA-based calculations include our consolidated subsidiaries, other than those we have designated as “Unrestricted Subsidiaries” as defined in the bond indentures. Generally, the Credit Agreement and the bond indentures use a trailing four fiscal quarter basis for purposes of the relevant calculations and require certain adjustments and exclusions for purposes of those calculations, which make the calculation of financial performance for purposes of those calculations under the Credit Agreement and bond indentures not directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA as presented herein. We are in compliance with our leverage and fixed charge coverage ratios under the Credit Agreement, our bond indentures and other agreements governing our indebtedness as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020. Noncompliance with these leverage and fixed charge coverage ratios would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.
5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
We are involved in litigation from time to time in the ordinary course of business, including litigation arising from damage to customer assets in our facilities caused by fires and other natural disasters. While the outcome of such litigation is inherently uncertain, we do not believe any current litigation will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

7. SEGMENT INFORMATION (CONTINUED)
During the fourth quarter of 2020, we changed our definition of Adjusted EBITDA to (a) exclude stock-based compensation expense and (b) include our share of Adjusted EBITDA from our unconsolidated joint ventures. All prior periods have been recast to conform to these changes. We now define Adjusted EBITDA for each segment as net income (loss) before interest expense, net, provision (benefit) for income taxes, depreciation and amortization (inclusive of our share of Adjusted EBITDA from our unconsolidated joint ventures), and excluding certain items we do not believe to be indicative of our core operating results, specifically:
| | | | | | | | |
| | |
EXCLUDED | | |
•Restructuring Charges | | •Other expense (income), net |
•Intangible impairments | | •Stock-based compensation expense |
•(Gain) loss on disposal/write-down of property, plant and equipment, net (including real estate) | | •COVID-19 Costs(1) |
(1) Costs that are incremental and directly attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic which are not expected to recur once the pandemic ends ("COVID-19 Costs"). These costs include the purchase of personal protective equipment for our employees and incremental cleaning costs of our facilities, among other direct costs.
Internally, we use Adjusted EBITDA as the basis for evaluating the performance of, and allocated resources to, our operating segments.
A reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) to Adjusted EBITDA on a consolidated basis for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 is as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, | | |

8. RELATED PARTIES
In October 2020, in connection with the formation of the Frankfurt JV, we entered into agreements whereby we will earn various fees, including property management and construction and development fees, for services we are providing to the Frankfurt JV (the “Frankfurt JV Agreements”). Revenues and expenses associated with the Frankfurt JV Agreements are presented as a component of our Global Data Business segment. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we recognized revenue of approximately $1,060 associated with the Frankfurt JV Agreements.
In March 2019, in connection with the formation of the MakeSpace JV, we entered into a storage and service agreement with the MakeSpace JV to provide certain storage and related services to the MakeSpace JV (the “MakeSpace Agreement”). Revenues and expenses associated with the MakeSpace Agreement are presented as a component of our Global RIM Business segment. We recognized revenue of approximately $7,500 and $6,800 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, associated with the MakeSpace Agreement.

9. PROJECT SUMMIT
In October 2019, we announced our global program designed to better position us for future growth and achievement of our strategic objectives (“Project Summit”). As a result of the program, we expect to reduce the number of positions at vice president and above by approximately 45%. The total program is expected to reduce our total managerial and administrative workforce by approximately 700 positions by the end of 2021. We have also reduced our services and operations workforce. As of March 31, 2021, we have completed approximately 80% of our planned workforce reductions. The activities associated with Project Summit began in the fourth quarter of 2019 and are expected to be substantially complete by the end of 2021.
We estimate that the implementation of Project Summit will result in total operating expenditures (“Restructuring Charges”) of approximately $450,000 that primarily consist of: (1) employee severance costs; (2) internal costs associated with the development and implementation of Project Summit initiatives; (3) professional fees, primarily related to third party consultants who are assisting with the design and execution of various initiatives as well as project management activities and (4) system implementation and data conversion costs.
Restructuring Charges included in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, and from the inception of Project Summit through March 31, 2021, are as follows:

10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
In April 2021, we closed on an agreement to form a joint venture (the "Web Werks JV") with the shareholders of Web Werks India Private Limited ("Web Werks"), a colocation data center provider in India. In connection with the formation of the Web Werks JV, we made an initial investment of approximately 3,750,000 Indian rupees (or approximately $50,100, based upon the exchange rate between the United States dollar and Indian rupee as of the closing date of the initial investment) in exchange for a noncontrolling interest in the form of convertible preference shares in the Web Werks JV (the “Initial Web Werks JV Investment”). These shares are convertible into a to-be-determined amount of common shares based upon the achievement of EBITDA targets for the Web Werks JV's fiscal year ending March 31, 2022. We currently estimate our noncontrolling interest to be 39%. We will account for the Initial Web Werks JV Investment as an equity method investment and the carrying value of such investment will be presented as a component of Other within Other Assets, net in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet beginning in the second quarter of 2021.
Under the terms of the Web Werks JV shareholders agreement, we are required to make additional investments over the next two years, if certain conditions are met, totaling approximately 7,500,000 Indian rupees (or approximately $100,000, based upon the current exchange rate between the United States dollar and Indian rupee), and, over time, we expect to acquire a majority interest in the Web Werks JV.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
We have made statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”) that constitute “forward-looking statements" as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other securities laws. These forward-looking statements concern our operations, economic performance, financial condition, goals, beliefs, future growth strategies, investment objectives, plans and current expectations, such as our (1) expectations and assumptions regarding the impact of the COVID-19 (as defined below) pandemic on us and our customers, including on our businesses, financial position, results of operations and cash flows, (2) commitment to future dividend payments, (3) expected change in volume of records stored with us, (4) expected organic revenue growth, including 2021 consolidated organic storage rental revenue growth rate and consolidated organic total revenue growth rate, (5) expectations that profits will increase in our growth portfolio, including our higher-growth markets, and that our growth portfolio will become a larger part of our business over time, (6) expectations related to our revenue management programs and continuous improvement initiatives, (7) expectations related to monetizing our owned industrial real estate assets as part of our capital recycling program, (8) expected ability to identify and complete acquisitions and other investments, including joint ventures, and drive returns on invested capital, (9) anticipated capital expenditures, (10) expected benefits, costs and actions related to, and timing of, Project Summit (as defined below), and (11) other forward-looking statements related to our business, results of operations and financial condition.

When we use words such as “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates”, “plans", “intends" or similar expressions, we are making forward-looking statements. Although we believe that our forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, our expected results may not be achieved, and actual results may differ materially from our expectations. In addition, important factors that could cause actual results to differ from expectations include, among others:
•the severity and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and its effects on the global economy, including its effects on us, the markets we serve and our customers and the third parties with whom we do business within those markets;
•our ability to execute on Project Summit and the potential impacts of Project Summit on our ability to retain and recruit employees;
•our ability to remain qualified for taxation as a real estate investment trust for United States federal income tax purposes (“REIT”);
•changes in customer preferences and demand for our storage and information management services, including as a result of the shift from paper and tape storage to alternative technologies that require less physical space;
•our ability or inability to execute our strategic growth plan, including our ability to invest according to plan, incorporate new digital information technologies into our offerings, achieve satisfactory returns on new product offerings, continue our revenue management, expand internationally, complete acquisitions on satisfactory terms, integrate acquired companies efficiently and grow our business through joint ventures;
•changes in the amount of our capital expenditures;
•our ability to raise debt or equity capital and changes in the cost of our debt;
•the cost and our ability to comply with laws, regulations and customer demands, including those relating to data security and privacy issues, as well as fire and safety and environmental standards;
•the impact of litigation or disputes that may arise in connection with incidents in which we fail to protect our customers’ information or our internal records or information technology (“IT”) systems and the impact of such incidents on our reputation and ability to compete;
•changes in the price for our storage and information management services relative to the cost of providing such storage and information management services;
•changes in the political and economic environments in the countries in which our international subsidiaries operate and changes in the global political climate, particularly as we consolidate operations and move records and data across borders;

OVERVIEW
The following discussions set forth, for the periods indicated, management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations. Significant trends and changes are discussed for the three months ended March 31, 2021 within each section.
| | |
|
COVID-19 In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared a novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) a pandemic. The preventative and protective actions that governments have ordered, or we or our customers have implemented, have resulted in a period of reduced service operations and business disruption for us, our customers and other third parties with which we do business. While we have broad geographic and customer diversification with operations in 56 countries and no single customer accounting for a significant portion of our revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2021, COVID-19 is a global pandemic impacting numerous industries and geographies. While we do not currently believe that the implications of the COVID-19 pandemic have had a material adverse impact on our ability to collect our accounts receivable, global economic conditions related to the COVID-19 pandemic may have a material adverse effect on our customers, which could impact our future ability to collect our accounts receivable. We continue to monitor the credit worthiness of our customers and customer payment trends, as well as the related impact on our liquidity. We can provide no assurance that the cost savings measures we have previously taken, or may take in future periods, will be sufficient to offset any future service level declines, and we continue to evaluate the need for these cost saving measures and additional cost saving measures as additional information regarding the COVID-19 pandemic and the related economic downturn becomes known. |

PROJECT SUMMIT
| | | | | |
Compelling Adjusted EBITDA Benefits | Implementation Details |

~$375M Expected annual run-rate benefits realized exiting 2021
| •Project Summit began in Q4 2019 and is expected to be substantially complete by the end of 2021 •Cost to implement is estimated to be ~$450M |
In October 2019, we announced our global program designed to better position us for future growth and achievement of our strategic objectives (“Project Summit”). As a result of the program, we expect to reduce the number of positions at vice president and above by approximately 45%. The total program is expected to reduce our total managerial and administrative workforce by approximately 700 positions by the end of 2021. We have also reduced our services and operations workforce. As of March 31, 2021, we have completed approximately 80% of our planned workforce reductions.
The activities associated with Project Summit began in the fourth quarter of 2019 and are expected to be substantially complete by the end of 2021. We expect the total program benefits associated with Project Summit to be fully realized exiting 2021. We expect that Project Summit will improve annual Adjusted EBITDA (as defined below) by approximately $375.0 million exiting 2021. We will continue to evaluate our overall operating model, as well as various opportunities and initiatives, including those associated with real estate consolidation, system implementation and process changes, which could result in the identification and implementation of additional actions associated with Project Summit and incremental costs and benefits.

Part I. Financial Information
We estimate that the implementation of Project Summit will result in total operating expenditures (“Restructuring Charges”) of approximately $450.0 million that primarily consist of: (1) employee severance costs; (2) internal costs associated with the development and implementation of Project Summit initiatives; (3) professional fees, primarily related to third party consultants who are assisting with the design and execution of various initiatives as well as project management activities and (4) system implementation and data conversion costs. The following table presents (in millions) total Restructuring Charges related to Project Summit primarily related to employee severance costs, internal costs associated with the development and implementation of Project Summit initiatives and professional fees from the inception of Project Summit through March 31, 2021, for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and for the three months ended March 31, 2020:

For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2020 | | | | | |
| $41,046 | | | $41.0 million |
| | | | |
We have also incurred approximately $4.1 million in capital expenditures related to Project Summit during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and approximately $14.2 million from the inception of Project Summit through March 31, 2021.
See Note 9 to Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report for more information on the Restructuring Charges.
CHANGES IMPACTING COMPARABILITY WITH PRIOR YEAR
During the fourth quarter of 2020, we made changes to the definitions of the following non-GAAP measures: Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EPS, FFO (Nareit) and FFO (Normalized) (each as defined below). These changes were implemented to align our definitions more closely with our peers. All prior periods have been recast to conform to these changes.

GENERAL
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - KEY TRENDS
•In spite of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have experienced relatively steady volume in our Global RIM Business segment, with organic storage rental revenue growth driven primarily by revenue management. We expect organic storage rental revenue growth to benefit from revenue management and volume to be relatively stable in the near term. We expect our total organic storage rental revenue growth rate for 2021 to be approximately 2% to 4%.
•Our organic service revenue continued to be impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, with declines primarily due to decreases in our service activity, particularly in regions where governments have imposed restrictions on our customers’ non-essential business operations. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our future service revenues is uncertain and is dependent, in part, on the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, the resulting governmental and business actions and the duration and strength of any ensuing economic recovery that may follow, particularly within the markets in which we operate and among our customers.
Cost of sales (excluding depreciation and amortization) and Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2021 consists of the following:

NON-GAAP MEASURES
ADJUSTED EBITDA
We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense, net, provision (benefit) for income taxes, depreciation and amortization (inclusive of our share of Adjusted EBITDA from our unconsolidated joint ventures), and excluding certain items we do not believe to be indicative of our core operating results, specifically:
| | | | | | | | |
| | |
EXCLUDED | | |
•Restructuring Charges | | •Other expense (income), net |
•Intangible impairments | | •Stock-based compensation expense |
•(Gain) loss on disposal/write-down of property, plant and equipment, net (including real estate) | | •COVID-19 Costs(1) |
| | |
(1) Costs that are incremental and directly attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic which are not expected to recur once the pandemic ends ("COVID-19 Costs"). These costs include the purchase of personal protective equipment for our employees and incremental cleaning costs of our facilities, among other direct costs.
Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by total revenues. We also show Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin for each of our reportable operating segments under “Results of Operations – Segment Analysis” below.
![irm-20210331_g7.jpg](irm-20210331_g7.jpg)
Adjusted EBITDA excludes both interest expense, net and the provision (benefit) for income taxes. These expenses are associated with our capitalization and tax structures, which we do not consider when evaluating the operating profitability of our core operations. Adjusted EBITDA does not include depreciation and amortization expenses, in order to eliminate the impact of capital investments, which we evaluate by comparing capital expenditures to incremental revenue generated and as a percentage of total revenues. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), such as operating income, net income (loss) or cash flows from operating activities (as determined in accordance with GAAP).

ADJUSTED EPS
We define Adjusted EPS as reported earnings per share fully diluted from net income (loss) attributable to Iron Mountain Incorporated (inclusive of our share of adjusted losses (gains) from our unconsolidated joint ventures) and excluding certain items, specifically:
| | | | | | | | |
| | |
EXCLUDED | | |
•Restructuring Charges •Intangible impairments •(Gain) loss on disposal/write-down of property, plant and equipment, net (including real estate) | | •Other expense (income), net •Stock-based compensation expense •COVID-19 Costs •Tax impact of reconciling items and discrete tax items |
| | |
We do not believe these excluded items to be indicative of our ongoing operating results, and they are not considered when we are forecasting our future results. We believe Adjusted EPS is of value to our current and potential investors when comparing our results from past, present and future periods.
RECONCILIATION OF REPORTED EPS—FULLY DILUTED FROM NET INCOME (LOSS) ATTRIBUTABLE TO IRON MOUNTAIN INCORPORATED TO ADJUSTED EPS—FULLY DILUTED FROM NET INCOME (LOSS) ATTRIBUTABLE TO IRON MOUNTAIN INCORPORATED:

(1)The difference between our effective tax rates and our structural tax rate (or adjusted effective tax rates) for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 is primarily due to (i) the reconciling items above, which impact our reported net income (loss) before provision (benefit) for income taxes but have an insignificant impact on our reported provision (benefit) for income taxes and (ii) other discrete tax items. Our structural tax rate for purposes of the calculation of Adjusted EPS for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 was 16.6% and 17.0%, respectively.

FFO (NAREIT) AND FFO (NORMALIZED)
Funds from operations (“FFO”) is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit”) as net income (loss) excluding depreciation on real estate assets, gains on sale of real estate, net of tax, and amortization of data center leased-based intangibles and adjusting for our share of reconciling items from our unconsolidated joint ventures from FFO (“FFO (Nareit)”). FFO (Nareit) does not give effect to real estate depreciation because these amounts are computed, under GAAP, to allocate the cost of a property over its useful life. Because values for well-maintained real estate assets have historically increased or decreased based upon prevailing market conditions, we believe that FFO (Nareit) provides investors with a clearer view of our operating performance. Our most directly comparable GAAP measure to FFO (Nareit) is net income (loss).
Although Nareit has published a definition of FFO, we modify FFO (Nareit), as is common among REITs seeking to provide financial measures that most meaningfully reflect their particular business (“FFO (Normalized)”). Our definition of FFO (Normalized) excludes certain items included in FFO (Nareit) that we believe are not indicative of our core operating results, specifically:
| | | | | | | | |
| | |
EXCLUDED | | |
•Restructuring Charges •Intangible impairments •(Gain) loss on disposal/write-down of property, plant and equipment, net (excluding real estate) •Other expense (income), net | | •Stock-based compensation expense •COVID-19 Costs •Real estate financing lease depreciation •Tax impact of reconciling items and discrete tax items

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and for the period then ended. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate the estimates used. We base our estimates on historical experience, actuarial estimates, current conditions and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Our critical accounting estimates include the following, which are listed in no particular order:
•Revenue Recognition
•Accounting for Acquisitions
•Impairment of Tangible and Intangible Assets
•Income Taxes
Further detail regarding our critical accounting estimates can be found in “Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in our Annual Report, and the Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes included therein. We have determined that no material changes concerning our critical accounting estimates have occurred since December 31, 2020.

Our organic revenue growth rate includes the impact of acquisitions of customer relationships.
TOTAL REVENUES
For the three months ended March 31, 2021, the increase in reported consolidated revenue was driven by reported storage rental revenue growth, partially offset by declines in reported service revenue. Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations increased our reported consolidated revenue growth rate for the three months ended March 31, 2021 by 1.7% compared to the prior year period.
STORAGE RENTAL REVENUES AND SERVICE REVENUES
Primary factors influencing the change in reported consolidated storage rental revenue and reported service revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020 include the following:
| | | | | | | | |
| | |
STORAGE RENTAL REVENUES | | •organic storage rental revenue growth driven by increased volume in faster growing markets and revenue management; •a 0.5% decrease in global records management volumes (excluding acquisitions, global records management volume decreased 1.0%); and •an increase of $11.6 million due to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. |
| | |
| | |
SERVICE REVENUES | | •a decrease in service activity levels as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly in regions where governments have imposed restrictions on our customers' non-essential business operations; •organic service revenue declines reflecting lower service activity levels; and •an increase of $7.6 million due to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. |

Primary factors influencing the change in reported consolidated Cost of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020 include the following:
•a decrease in labor costs driven by cost containment actions taken in response to lower service activity levels due to the COVID-19 pandemic and benefits from Project Summit;
•an increase in facilities expenses driven by increases in rent expense, reflecting the impact from our recent sale-leaseback activity during the second half of 2020 (which we expect to continue in 2021 as we continue to look for future opportunities to monetize a small portion of our owned industrial real estate assets as part of our ongoing capital recycling program);
•a decrease in transportation costs, primarily driven by lower vehicle maintenance and insurance, fuel costs and third-party carrier costs, reflecting cost containment actions taken in response to lower service activity levels; and
•an increase of $8.9 million due to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations.

Primary factors influencing the change in reported consolidated Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020 include the following:
•an increase in general and administrative expenses, driven by higher stock based compensation and bonus compensation accruals, partially offset by other employee related costs, reflecting ongoing cost containment measures and benefits from Project Summit;
•an increase in sales, marketing and account management expenses, driven by higher compensation expense, primarily reflecting increased sales commissions, as well as increased marketing costs;
•higher bad debt expense, primarily driven by increased collectability risk resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic; and
•foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations increased reported consolidated Selling, general and administrative expenses by $3.6 million.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
GENERAL
We expect to meet our short-term and long-term cash flow requirements through cash generated from operations, cash on hand, borrowings under our Credit Agreement (as defined below) and proceeds from monetizing a small portion of our total industrial real estate assets in the future, as well as other potential financings (such as the issuance of debt or equity). Our cash flow requirements, both in the near and long term, include, but are not limited to, capital expenditures, the repayment of outstanding debt, shareholder dividends, Project Summit initiatives, potential and pending business acquisitions and investments and normal business operation needs.
PROJECT SUMMIT
As disclosed above, in October 2019, we announced Project Summit. We estimate that the implementation of Project Summit will result in total Restructuring Charges of $450.0 million. From the inception of Project Summit through March 31, 2021, we have incurred approximately $283.0 million of Restructuring Charges related to Project Summit, primarily related to employee severance costs, internal costs associated with the development and implementation of Project Summit initiatives and professional fees. From the inception of Project Summit through March 31, 2021, we have also incurred $14.2 million of capital expenditures.

DEBT COVENANTS
The Credit Agreement (as defined in Note 4 to Notes of Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report), our bond indentures and other agreements governing our indebtedness contain certain restrictive financial and operating covenants, including covenants that restrict our ability to complete acquisitions, pay cash dividends, incur indebtedness, make investments, sell assets and take certain other corporate actions. The covenants do not contain a rating trigger. Therefore, a change in our debt rating would not trigger a default under the Credit Agreement, our bond indentures or other agreements governing our indebtedness. The Credit Agreement requires that we satisfy a fixed charge coverage ratio, a net total lease adjusted leverage ratio and a net secured debt lease adjusted leverage ratio on a quarterly basis and our bond indentures require that, among other things, we satisfy a leverage ratio (not lease adjusted) or a fixed charge coverage ratio (not lease adjusted), as a condition to taking actions such as paying dividends and incurring indebtedness.
The Credit Agreement uses EBITDAR-based calculations and the bond indentures use EBITDA-based calculations as the primary measures of financial performance for purposes of calculating leverage and fixed charge coverage ratios. The bond indenture EBITDA-based calculations include our consolidated subsidiaries, other than those we have designated as “Unrestricted Subsidiaries” as defined in the bond indentures. Generally, the Credit Agreement and the bond indentures use a trailing four fiscal quarter basis for purposes of the relevant calculations and require certain adjustments and exclusions for purposes of those calculations which make the calculation of financial performance for purposes of those calculations under the Credit Agreement and bond indentures not directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA as presented herein. These adjustments can be significant. For example, the calculation of financial performance under the Credit Agreement and certain of our bond indentures (subject to specified exceptions and caps) adjustments for non-cash charges and for expected benefits associated with (i) completed acquisitions, (ii) certain executed lease agreements associated with our data center business that have yet to commence, and (iii) restructuring and other strategic initiatives, such as Project Summit. The calculation of financial performance under our other bond indentures includes, for example, adjustments (i) for non-cash charges and for expected benefits associated with completed acquisitions, and (ii) to exclude the effects of events that are extraordinary, unusual or non-recurring, such as the COVID-19 pandemic.
Our leverage and fixed charge coverage ratios under the Credit Agreement and our indentures as of March 31, 2021 are as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| MARCH 31, 2021 | | | | MAXIMUM/MINIMUM ALLOWABLE |
Net total lease adjusted leverage ratio | 5.5 | | | | | Maximum allowable of 6.5 |
Net secured debt lease adjusted leverage ratio | 2.0 | | | | | Maximum allowable of 4.0 |
Fixed charge coverage ratio | 2.3 | | | | | Minimum allowable of 1.5 |
Bond leverage ratio (not lease adjusted) | 5.9 | | | | | Maximum allowable of 7.0(1) |
Bond fixed charge coverage ratio (not lease adjusted) | 3.2 | | | | | Minimum allowable of 2.0(1) |
(1)The indentures for the GBP Notes, the 47/8% Notes due 2027, the 51/4% Notes due 2028 and the 47/8% Notes due 2029 include a maximum leverage ratio covenant. The indentures for the 5% Notes, the 51/4% Notes due 2030, the 41/2% Notes and the 55/8% Notes do not include a maximum leverage ratio covenant; the indentures for these notes instead require us to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. In certain instances as provided in our indentures, we have the ability to incur additional indebtedness that would result in our bond leverage ratio or bond fixed charge coverage ratio exceeding or falling below the maximum or minimum permitted ratio under our indentures and still remain in compliance with the applicable covenant.
Noncompliance with these leverage and fixed charge coverage ratios would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and liquidity.
Our ability to pay interest on or to refinance our indebtedness depends on our future performance, working capital levels and capital structure, which are subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors which may be beyond our control. There can be no assurance that we will generate sufficient cash flow from our operations or that future financings will be available on acceptable terms or in amounts sufficient to enable us to service or refinance our indebtedness or to make necessary capital expenditures.

DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
A. INTEREST RATE SWAP AGREEMENTS
In March 2018, we entered into interest rate swap agreements to limit our exposure to changes in interest rates on a portion of our floating rate indebtedness. As of March 31, 2021, we had $350.0 million in notional value of interest rate swap agreements outstanding, which expire in March 2022. Under the interest rate swap agreements, we receive variable rate interest payments associated with the notional amount of each interest rate swap, based upon one-month LIBOR, in exchange for the payment of fixed interest rates as specified in the interest rate swap agreements.
In July 2019, we entered into forward-starting interest rate swap agreements to limit our exposure to changes in interest rates on a portion of our floating rate indebtedness once our current interest rate swap agreements expire in March 2022. The forward-starting interest rate swap agreements have $350.0 million in notional value, commence in March 2022 and expire in March 2024. Under the swap agreements, we will receive variable rate interest payments based upon one-month LIBOR, in exchange for the payment of fixed interest rates as specified in the interest rate swap agreements.
We have designated these interest rate swap agreements, including the forward-starting interest rate swap agreements, as cash flow hedges.
B. CROSS-CURRENCY SWAP AGREEMENTS
We enter into cross-currency swap agreements to hedge the variability of exchange rate impacts between the United States dollar and the Euro. The cross-currency swap agreements are designated as a hedge of net investment against certain of our Euro denominated subsidiaries and require an exchange of the notional amounts at maturity.
In August 2019, we entered into cross-currency swap agreements whereby we notionally exchanged approximately $110.0 million at an interest rate of 6.0% for approximately 99.1 million Euros at a weighted average interest rate of approximately 3.65%. These cross-currency swap agreements expire in August 2023.
In September 2020, we entered into cross-currency swap agreements whereby we notionally exchanged approximately $359.2 million at an interest rate of 4.5% for approximately 300.0 million Euros at a weighted average interest rate of approximately 3.4%. These cross-currency swap agreements expire in February 2026.
See Note 3 to Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report for additional information on our derivative instruments.
EQUITY FINANCING
In 2017, we entered into a distribution agreement pursuant to which we may sell, from time to time, up to an aggregate sales price of $500.0 million of our common stock through the agents under the agreement (the “At The Market (ATM) Equity Program”). During the three months ended March 31, 2021, there were no shares of common stock sold under the At The Market (ATM) Equity Program. As of March 31, 2021, the remaining aggregate sale price of shares of our common stock available for distribution under the At The Market (ATM) Equity Program was approximately $431.2 million.
JOINT VENTURES
See Note 2.e. to Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report for information regarding our 2021 joint ventures.
A. MAKESPACE JOINT VENTURE
During the first quarter of 2021, we made a capital contribution of $6.5 million to our joint venture with MakeSpace Labs, Inc. (the “MakeSpace JV”). Our equity interest in the MakeSpace JV at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was 42% and 39%, respectively.
B. WEB WERKS JOINT VENTURE
In April 2021, we closed on an agreement to form a joint venture (the "Web Werks JV") with the shareholders of Web Werks India Private Limited (“Web Werks”), a colocation data center provider in India. In connection with the formation of the Web Werks JV, we made an initial investment of approximately 3,750.0 million Indian rupees (or approximately $50.1 million, based upon the exchange rate between the United States dollar and Indian rupee as of the closing date of the initial investment) in exchange for a noncontrolling interest in the form of convertible preference shares in the Web Werks JV (the “Initial Web Werks JV Investment”). These shares are convertible into a to-be-determined amount of common shares based upon the achievement of EBITDA targets for the Web Werks JV’s fiscal year ending March 31, 2022. We currently estimate our noncontrolling interest to be 39%.
Under the terms of the Web Werks JV shareholders agreement, we are required to make additional investments over the next two years, if certain conditions are met, totaling approximately 7,500.0 million Indian rupees (or approximately $100.0 million, based upon the current exchange rate between the United States dollar and Indian rupee), and, over time, we expect to acquire a majority interest in the Web Werks JV.
