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.

2021 NEWLY FORMED 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 3,750,000 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.

Under the terms of the Web Werks JV shareholder agreement, we are required to make additional investments over a period ending May 2023 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).

JOINT VENTURE SUMMARY

The following joint ventures are accounted for as equity method investments and are presented as a component of Other within Other assets, net in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

G. REDEEMABLE NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS

In 2018, one of the noncontrolling interest shareholders in one of our foreign consolidated subsidiaries exercised its option to put its ownership interest back to us. Upon the exercise of the put option, this noncontrolling interest became mandatorily redeemable by us, and, therefore, was accounted for as a liability rather than a component of redeemable noncontrolling interests. In May 2021, we agreed to final settlement terms and paid the put option price for the noncontrolling interest shares. We remain in dispute with this former shareholder with respect to whether interest from the date of the put and certain other costs should be reimbursable. We have vigorously defended that interest and costs are not owed, and are currently awaiting a ruling from an arbitration hearing.

(1)The primary reconciling items between the federal statutory tax rate of 21.0% and our overall effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 were the impacts of differences in the tax rates at which our foreign earnings are subject and a discrete tax expense of approximately $12,000 primarily resulting from a tax law change in the United Kingdom, partially offset by the benefits derived from the dividends paid deduction.

(2)For the three months ended June 30, 2020, we had a provision for income taxes of $9,683 and net income before provision for income taxes of $2,570; as such, our effective tax rate is not meaningful.

(3)The primary reconciling items between the federal statutory tax rate of 21.0% and our overall effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2020 were the impacts of differences in the tax rates at which our foreign earnings are subject, partially offset by the benefits derived from the dividends paid deduction.

P. 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.

The preliminary purchase price allocations that are not finalized as of June 30, 2021 relate to the final assessment of the fair values of intangible assets (primarily customer relationship intangible assets), property, plant and equipment (primarily racking structures) and income taxes (primarily deferred taxes) associated with the acquisitions we closed in 2021. Any adjustments to our estimates of purchase price allocation will be made in the periods in which the adjustments are determined, but no later than the one year measurement period, and the cumulative effect of such adjustments will be calculated as if the adjustments had been completed as of the acquisition dates. Adjustments recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2021 were not material to our results from operations.

4. DIVESTMENTS

On June 7, 2021, we sold our Intellectual Property Management ("IPM") business, also known as our technology escrow services business, which we predominantly operated in the United States, for total gross consideration of approximately $217,200 (the “IPM Divestment”). As a result of the IPM Divestment, we recorded a gain on sale of approximately $181,200 to Other (income) expense, net, in the second quarter of 2021, representing the excess of the fair value of the consideration received over the sum of the carrying value of the IPM business.

We have concluded that the IPM Divestment does not meet the criteria to be reported as discontinued operations in our consolidated financial statements, as our decision to divest this business does not represent a strategic shift that will have a major effect on our operations and financial results. Accordingly, the revenues and expenses associated with this business are presented as a component of operating income (loss) in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 through the closing date of the IPM Divestment and the cash flows associated with this business is presented as a component of cash flows from operations in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 through the closing date of the IPM Divestment.

5. 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 June 30, 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 a hedge of net investment 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.

(1)These amounts are recognized as unrealized gains (losses), a component of Accumulated other comprehensive items, net.

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 and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 are as follows:

	THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30,				SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30,
	2021(1)		2020		2021(1)		2020
Foreign exchange gains (losses) associated with net investment hedge	$	—	$	(6,854)	$	—	$	(401)

(1)As there are no hedges of net investment outstanding during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, no foreign exchange gains (losses) associated with hedges of net investment have been recognized.

As of June 30, 2021, cumulative net gains of $3,256, net of tax, are recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive items, net associated with this net investment hedge.

The Credit Agreement is scheduled to mature on June 3, 2023. In addition, we also had various outstanding letters of credit totaling $3,238. The remaining amount available for borrowing under the Revolving Credit Facility as of June 30, 2021 was $1,746,762 (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 June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

UK BILATERAL REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY On May 25, 2021, Iron Mountain (UK) PLC and Iron Mountain (UK) Data Centre Limited entered into an amendment to the UK Bilateral Facility with Barclays Bank PLC to (i) modify the interest rate from LIBOR plus 2.25% to LIBOR plus 2.0% (with flexibility built in for the expected transition away from LIBOR) and (ii) add an additional option to extend the maturity date by one year. The UK Bilateral Facility now contains two one-year options that allow us to extend the maturity date beyond the September 23, 2022 expiration date, subject to certain conditions specified in the UK Bilateral Facility, including the lender's consent. There were no other changes to the terms of the UK Bilateral Revolving Credit Facility described in Note 6 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report. MAXIMUM AMOUNT £140,000
OPTIONAL ADDITIONAL COMMITMENTS £125,000
INTEREST RATE 2.3% As of June 30, 2021

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE SECURITIZATION PROGRAM On June 28, 2021, we entered into an amendment to the Accounts Receivable Securitization Program to extend the maturity date from July 30, 2021 to July 1, 2023, at which point all obligations become due. The interest rate under the amended Accounts Receivable Securitization Program is LIBOR plus 1.0%. The full amount outstanding under the Accounts Receivable Securitization Program is classified within long-term debt, net of current portion at June 30, 2021 and within current portion of long-term debt at December 31, 2020 in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

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 EBITDAR- and EBITDA-based leverage calculations include our consolidated subsidiaries, other than those we have designated as “Unrestricted Subsidiaries” as defined in the Credit Agreement and 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 June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. Noncompliance with these leverage and fixed charge coverage ratios would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.

7. 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.

We have estimated a reasonably possible range for all loss contingencies and believe it is reasonably possible that we could incur aggregate losses in addition to amounts currently accrued for all matters up to an additional $23,000 over the next several years, of which certain amounts would be covered by insurance or indemnity arrangements.

8. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY MATTERS

In fiscal year 2020 and the first six months of 2021, our board of directors declared the following dividends:

9. 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
•Acquisition and Integration Costs	•Other (income) expense, net
•Restructuring Charges	•Stock-based compensation expense
•Intangible impairments	•COVID-19 Costs (as defined below)
•(Gain) loss on disposal/write-down of property, plant and equipment, net (including real estate)

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 and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 is as follows:

11. 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 June 30, 2021, we have completed approximately 95% 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 and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, and from the inception of Project Summit through June 30, 2021, are as follows:

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 should be read in conjunction with our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, included herein, and our 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 United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 24, 2021 (our “Annual Report”).

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.

•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 and six months ended June 30, 2021 within each section. Trends and changes that are consistent for both the three and six month periods are not repeated and are discussed on a year to date basis only.

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 58 countries and no single customer accounting for a significant portion of our revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2021, COVID-19 is a global pandemic impacting numerous industries and geographies. While our service operations have increased from the reductions we experienced during the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic, future service revenues remain uncertain and will be dependent on the severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, including new variants of COVID-19 that may emerge.

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 June 30, 2021, we have completed approximately 95% 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 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 June 30, 2021, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021:

		TOTAL
From the Inception of Project Summit through June 30, 2021
	$322,247	$322.2 million

For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2021
	$39,443	$39.4 million

For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2021
	$79,254	$79.3 million

We have also incurred approximately $5.9 million and $10.0 million in capital expenditures related to Project Summit during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and approximately $20.1 million from the inception of Project Summit through June 30, 2021.

See Note 11 to Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report for more information on the Restructuring Charges.

DIVESTMENTS

On June 7, 2021, as disclosed in Note 4 to Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report, we sold our Intellectual Property Management ("IPM") business, also known as our technology escrow services business, which we predominantly operated in the United States, for total gross consideration of approximately $217.2 million (the “IPM Divestment”). As described in Note 4 to Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report, the IPM Divestment does not meet the criteria to be reported as discontinued operations in our condensed consolidated financial statements. Our IPM business represented approximately $6.0 million and $14.2 million of total revenues and approximately $2.5 million and $6.8 million of total net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. Our IPM business represented approximately $8.2 million and $16.5 million of total revenues and approximately $4.5 million and $9.7 million of total net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively.

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, which we expect will be flat to slightly positive when compared to the prior year. We expect low single digit organic storage rental revenue growth for the remainder of 2021.

•Our organic service revenue growth is primarily due to increases in our service activity during the second quarter of 2021, particularly in regions where governments have lifted or eased restrictions on our customers’ non-essential business operations. While our service operations have increased from the reductions we experienced during the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic, future service revenues remain uncertain and will be dependent on the severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, including new variants of COVID-19 that may emerge.

Cost of sales (excluding depreciation and amortization) and Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2021 consists of the following:

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:

•Restructuring Charges	•Stock-based compensation expense
•Intangible impairments	•COVID-19 Costs (as defined below)
•(Gain) loss on disposal/write-down of property, plant and equipment, net (including real estate)

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.

Part I. Financial Information

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).

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)”).

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 six months ended June 30, 2021, the increase in reported consolidated revenue was driven by reported storage rental revenue growth and reported service revenue growth. Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations increased our reported consolidated revenue growth rate for the six months ended June 30, 2021 by 2.8% 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 six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020 include the following:

STORAGE RENTAL REVENUES	•organic storage rental revenue growth driven by increased volume in faster growing markets and our Global Data Center Business segment, and revenue management; •a 1.2% increase in total global volume (excluding acquisitions, total global volume increased 0.5%); and •an increase of $34.4 million due to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations.
SERVICE REVENUES	•an increase in service activity levels, particularly in regions where governments have lifted or eased COVID-19 related restrictions on our customers' non-essential business operations; •organic service revenue growth reflecting increased service activity levels; and •an increase of $18.7 million due to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations.

PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES

We provide for income taxes during interim periods based on our estimate of the effective tax rate for the year.

Our effective tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 are as follows:

	THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30,				SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30,

Effective Tax Rate	28.5	%	—	%	27.9	%	25.1	%

(1)The primary reconciling items between the federal statutory tax rate of 21.0% and our overall effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 were the impacts of differences in the tax rates at which our foreign earnings are subject and a discrete tax expense of approximately $12.0 million primarily resulting from a tax law change in the United Kingdom, partially offset by the benefits derived from the dividends paid deduction.

(2)For the three months ended June 30, 2020, we had a provision for income taxes of $9.7 million and net income before provision for income taxes of $2.6 million; as such, our effective tax rate is not meaningful.

(3)The primary reconciling items between the federal statutory tax rate of 21.0% and our overall effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2020 were the impacts of differences in the tax rates at which our foreign earnings are subject, partially offset by the benefits derived from the dividends paid deduction.

•organic storage rental revenue growth driven by revenue management and volume;

•organic service revenue growth mainly driven by increased traditional service activity levels, particularly in regions where governments have lifted or eased COVID-19 related restrictions on our customers' non-essential business operations, and growth in our Global Digital Solutions and Secure Information Technology Asset Disposition businesses;

•an increase in revenue of $49.1 million due to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations;

•a 1.0% increase in global records management volume (excluding acquisitions, global records management volume increased 0.3%); and

•a 50 basis point increase in Adjusted EBITDA Margin primarily driven by benefits from Project Summit, revenue management, ongoing cost containment measures and lower bad debt expense, partially offset by increases in compensation, benefits, sales commissions and rent expense.

Primary factors influencing the change in revenue, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin in our Global Data Center Business segment for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the prior year period include the following:

•organic storage rental revenue growth from leases signed during the first half of 2021 and in prior periods, and service revenue growth from project revenue, partially offset by churn of 420 basis points;

•an increase in Adjusted EBITDA primarily driven by organic storage rental revenue growth; and

•a 270 basis point decrease in Adjusted EBITDA Margin reflecting a change in revenue mix due to lower margin project revenue during the period, which is expected to have a temporary impact on segment margins.

•organic service revenue growth mainly driven by increased service activity levels in our Fine Arts business, particularly in regions where governments have lifted or eased COVID-19 related restrictions on our customers' non-essential business operations; and

•a decrease in Adjusted EBITDA driven by higher wages and benefits due to normal inflation and higher corporate bonus compensation accruals, partially offset by benefits from Project Summit and ongoing cost containment measures.

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 June 30, 2021, we have incurred approximately $322.2 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 June 30, 2021, we have also incurred $20.1 million of capital expenditures.

CASH FLOWS

The following is a summary of our cash balances and cash flows (in thousands) as of and for the six months ended June 30,

Cash and Cash Equivalents, including Restricted Cash, End of Period	315,928		907,180

A. CASH FLOWS FROM OPERATING ACTIVITIES

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, net cash flows provided by operating activities decreased by $49.9 million compared to the prior year period, primarily due to a decrease in cash from working capital of $40.9 million, primarily related to the timing of accounts payable and accrued expenses and collections of accounts receivable and a decrease in net income (including non-cash charges) of $9.0 million.

B. CASH FLOWS FROM INVESTING ACTIVITIES

Our significant investing activity during the six months ended June 30, 2021 is highlighted below:

•We paid cash for capital expenditures of $295.6 million. Additional details of our capital spending are included in the “Capital Expenditures" section below.

•We received $209.7 million in proceeds from sales of property, plant and equipment, primarily related to proceeds from sale-leaseback transactions of five facilities in the United Kingdom during the second quarter of 2021.

•We received $213.9 million in net proceeds from the IPM Divestment.

C. CASH FLOWS FROM FINANCING ACTIVITIES

Our significant financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2021 included:

•Net proceeds of $143.4 million primarily associated with borrowings under the Accounts Receivable Securitization Program and Revolving Credit Facility.

•Repurchase of noncontrolling interest of $75.0 million.

•Payment of dividends in the amount of $359.8 million on our common stock.

UK BILATERAL REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY

On May 25, 2021, Iron Mountain (UK) PLC and Iron Mountain (UK) Data Centre Limited entered into an amendment to the UK Bilateral Facility with Barclays Bank PLC to (i) modify the interest rate from LIBOR plus 2.25% to LIBOR plus 2.0% (with flexibility built in for the expected transition away from LIBOR) and (ii) add an additional option to extend the maturity date by one year. The UK Bilateral Facility now contains two one-year options that allow us to extend the maturity date beyond the September 23, 2022 expiration date, subject to certain conditions specified in the UK Bilateral Facility, including the lender's consent. There were no other changes to the terms of the UK Bilateral Revolving Credit Facility described in Note 6 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report.

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE SECURITIZATION PROGRAM

On June 28, 2021, we entered into an amendment to the Accounts Receivable Securitization Program to extend the maturity date from July 30, 2021 to July 1, 2023, at which point all obligations become due. The interest rate under the amended Accounts Receivable Securitization Program is LIBOR plus 1.0%. The full amount outstanding under the Accounts Receivable Securitization Program is classified within long-term debt, net of current portion at June 30, 2021 and within current portion of long-term debt at December 31, 2020 in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. There were no other changes to the terms of the Accounts Receivable Securitization Program described in Note 6 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report.

DEBT COVENANTS

The Credit Agreement (as defined in Note 6 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 EBITDAR- and EBITDA-based leverage calculations include our consolidated subsidiaries, other than those we have designated as “Unrestricted Subsidiaries” as defined in the Credit Agreement and 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 June 30, 2021 are as follows:

	JUNE 30, 2021	MAXIMUM/MINIMUM ALLOWABLE
Net total lease adjusted leverage ratio	5.3	Maximum allowable of 6.5
Net secured debt lease adjusted leverage ratio	1.9	Maximum allowable of 4.0
Fixed charge coverage ratio	2.3	Minimum allowable of 1.5
Bond leverage ratio (not lease adjusted)	5.8	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 June 30, 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 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.

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 5 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 six months ended June 30, 2021, there were no shares of common stock sold under the At The Market (ATM) Equity Program. As of June 30, 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.

ACQUISITIONS

During the second quarter of 2021, in order to enhance our existing operations in the United Kingdom and Indonesia and to expand our operations into Morocco, we completed the acquisition of two records management companies and one art storage company for total cash consideration of approximately $45.0 million.

POTENTIAL FRANKFURT DATA CENTER ACQUISITION

In July 2021, we entered into an agreement to acquire a data center in Frankfurt, Germany from Keppell DC Pte. Ltd. and Graphite (DC) BV for approximately 76.0 million Euros. The completion of the transaction is subject to certain closing conditions; accordingly, we can provide no assurances that we will be able to complete the transaction or that it will not be delayed. We expect to close the transaction during the second half of 2021.

2021 NEWLY FORMED 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.

Under the terms of the Web Werks JV shareholder agreement, we are required to make additional investments over a period ending May 2023 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.

DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The term "disclosure controls and procedures" is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act”). These rules refer to the controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information is recorded, processed, accumulated, summarized, communicated and reported to management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding what is required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files under the Exchange Act. As of June 30, 2021 (the "Evaluation Date”), we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Our internal control system is designed to provide reasonable assurance to our management and board of directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements. 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2021, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION

Disclosure Pursuant to Section 13(r) of the Exchange Act

Section 219 of the Iran Threat Reduction and Syria Human Rights Act of 2012 and Section 13(r) of the Exchange Act require an issuer to disclose in its annual and quarterly reports whether it or any of its affiliates have knowingly engaged in certain activities, including specified activities or transactions relating to persons designated under Executive Order No. 13382 (70 Fed. Reg. 38567). As previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 (the “Annual Report”), during the first quarter of 2020, we determined that one of our non-U.S. subsidiaries provided limited document storage and handling services during such quarter, and in prior periods since the reporting requirement took effect, to an entity designated under Executive Order No. 13382 located outside of Iran (“Entity”).

During the second quarter of 2020, the non-U.S. subsidiary notified the Entity of its decision to terminate the relationship and took steps to treat the property held in storage for the Entity as blocked property under regulations administered by OFAC, including by placing blocks and notices on the Entity’s account and instructing relevant employees of the non-U.S. subsidiary. Notwithstanding such procedures, through a review process, the Company became aware that an employee of the non-U.S. subsidiary authorized the destruction of the Entity’s property. The Company conducted a review of the matter which resulted in remediation actions including the termination of the employee. The non-U.S. subsidiary in question did not receive any revenue in connection with this activity and, except for related communications, has not engaged in any other activity with the Entity during the period covered by this report. Consistent with the disclosure contained in the Annual Report, we do not intend to continue any activity involving the Entity.

On August 5, 2021, we submitted an Initial Notice of Voluntary Disclosure to OFAC regarding the destruction of the Entity’s property. We continue to investigate the matter and intend to submit a Final Notice of Voluntary Disclosure to OFAC once the investigation is complete. We will continue to cooperate fully with OFAC in its review of this matter and to enhance our processes and procedures designed to promote compliance with our obligations under applicable international sanctions law.
