FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Iron Mountain Reports Second Quarter 2020 Results
BOSTON – August 6, 2020 – Iron Mountain Incorporated (NYSE: IRM), the storage and information management services company, announces financial and operating results for the second quarter of 2020. The conference call / webcast details, earnings call presentation and supplemental financial information, which includes definitions of certain capitalized terms used in this release, are available on Iron Mountain’s Investor Relations website. Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to the appropriate GAAP measures are included herein.
“I am proud of the way our organization quickly adapted to the challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic and is navigating the environment ever since,” said William L. Meaney, president and CEO of Iron Mountain. "A crisis such as COVID tests us on many levels and we are pleased that from the beginning of this crisis, we have taken decisive, yet thoughtful, action to help keep our Mountaineers, their families, and our customers safe all whilst meeting our customers' business needs around the world. At the same time, we took purposeful steps to further strengthen our financial position and liquidity, enhancing our flexibility to continue to invest in our business for the long term, and reward our shareholders with a sustainable dividend. On a less positive front, we found through reflection after the murder of George Floyd, that whilst we have made progress living up to our stated value around building diverse and inclusive teams, we have fallen well short of our intended - and necessary - objectives. For Iron Mountain, Diversity and Inclusion is about social justice as well as a business imperative. It is only by achieving a truly diverse and inclusive workplace, that we will be assured to have both the best talent as well as the level of creativity to continue to serve our customers in the best possible ways. We have recommitted ourselves to this value and are making the necessary changes to make better and faster progress in this area."
Meaney commented on the second-quarter results, “Although our business faced unprecedented challenges and added complexity as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, our team performed very well during the second quarter, and our results demonstrated the durability and resiliency of our core Storage business. In our Service business, we experienced improvements in our activity levels in June as compared to April and May, across our various product lines.
The early benefits of Project Summit are evident in our results, with $65 million of Adjusted EBITDA benefits realized in the first half from our transformation initiatives. We delivered constant currency Adjusted EBITDA in line with the year-ago level, despite a $58 million revenue decline, resulting in 200 basis points of margin expansion. Our Global Data Center business continues to perform exceptionally well, with strong commercial successes and a growing pipeline. Whilst a high degree of uncertainty remains as we look to the back half of the year, we are confident that the value of Iron Mountain’s new, as well as existing offerings, are even more relevant to our customers today. We remain committed to delivering solutions which address our customers’ needs both today and well into the future."
Financial Performance Highlights for the Second Quarter and Year-to-Date 2020

• | Total reported Revenues for the second quarter were $982.2 million, compared with $1.1 billion in the second quarter of 2019, a decline of 7.9%. Excluding the impact of foreign exchange (FX), total reported Revenues declined 5.6% compared to the prior year, driven by a 21.3% decline in Service revenue, partially offset by a 3.7% increase in Storage revenue. Year to date, total reported Revenues decreased 3.3%, or 1.2%, excluding the impact of FX.

• | Loss from Continuing Operations for the second quarter was $7.1 million, compared with Income from Continuing Operations of $92.3 million in the second quarter of 2019. Loss from Continuing Operations in the second quarter of 2020 included Restructuring Charges of $39.3 million associated with Project Summit and a debt extinguishment charge of $17.0 million related to the early extinguishment of the Company's 4 3/8% Senior Notes due 2021 and the 6% Senior Notes due 2023. Income from Continuing Operations in the second quarter of 2019 included $1.9 million of Significant Acquisition Costs.

• | Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter was $342.9 million, compared with $350.9 million in the second quarter of 2019. On a constant currency basis, Adjusted EBITDA decreased by 0.1%, driven in part by the aforementioned decline in Service revenue, partially offset by the benefits of Project Summit and the flow through from revenue management, leading to 200 basis points of Adjusted EBITDA margin expansion compared to the second quarter of 2019. Year to date, Adjusted EBITDA was $706.0 million, compared with $675.4 million in 2019, and increased 6.6%, excluding the impact of FX.

• | Reported EPS - Fully Diluted from Continuing Operations for the second quarter was $(0.02), compared with $0.32 in the second quarter of 2019. Year to date, Reported EPS - Fully Diluted from Continuing Operations was $0.20, compared with $0.42 in 2019.

Year to date, Net Income was $57.8 million compared with $122.9 million in 2019.

• | AFFO was $249.5 million for the second quarter, compared with $209.6 million in the second quarter of 2019, an increase of 19.0%. As compared to Adjusted EBITDA, the increase in AFFO was primarily driven by a tax refund. Year to date, AFFO was $480.7 million, compared with $403.0 million in 2019.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as (loss) income from continuing operations before interest expense, net, provision (benefit) for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and also excludes certain items that we believe are not indicative of our core operating results, specifically: (i) (gain) loss on disposal/write-down of property, plant and equipment, net (including real estate); (ii) intangible impairments; (iii) other expense (income), net (which includes foreign currency transaction (gains) losses, net, and debt extinguishment expense); (iv) Significant Acquisition Costs; (v) Restructuring Charges; and (vi) COVID-19 Costs. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by total revenues. We use multiples of current or projected Adjusted EBITDA in conjunction with our discounted cash flow models to determine our estimated overall enterprise valuation and to evaluate acquisition targets. We believe Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin provide our current and potential investors with relevant and useful information regarding our ability to generate cash flows to support business investment. These measures are an integral part of the internal reporting system we use to assess and evaluate the operating performance of our business.
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. Finally, 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 GAAP, such as operating income, (loss) income from continuing operations, net (loss) income or cash flows from operating activities from continuing operations (as determined in accordance with GAAP).

(1) The difference between our effective tax rates and our structural tax rate (or adjusted effective tax rates) for the quarters ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, is primarily due to (i) the reconciling items above, which impact our reported income (loss) from continuing operations 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 and six months ended June 30 2020 and 2019 was 17.1% and 17.7%, respectively. The Tax Impact of Reconciling Items and Discrete Tax Items is calculated using the current quarter’s estimate of the annual structural tax rate for the full year. This may result in the current period adjustment plus prior reported quarterly adjustments to not sum to the full year adjustment.
Adjusted Earnings Per Share, or Adjusted EPS
Adjusted EPS is defined as reported earnings per share fully diluted from continuing operations excluding: (i) (gain) loss on disposal/write-down of property, plant and equipment, net (including real estate); (ii) intangible impairments; (iii) other expense (income), net (which includes foreign currency transaction (gains) losses, net, and debt extinguishment expense); (iv) Significant Acquisition Costs; (v) Restructuring Charges; (vi) COVID-19 Costs; and (vii) the tax impact of reconciling items and discrete tax items. Adjusted EPS includes income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests. 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.

Funds From Operations, or FFO (Nareit), and FFO (Normalized)
Funds from operations (“FFO”) is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("Nareit") and us as net (loss) income excluding depreciation on real estate assets, gains on sale of real estate, net of tax and amortization of data center leased-based intangibles ("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 (loss) income. Although Nareit has published a definition of FFO, modifications to FFO (Nareit) are common among REITs as companies seek to provide financial measures that most meaningfully reflect their particular business. Our definition of FFO (Normalized) excludes certain items included in FFO (Nareit) that we believe are not indicative of our core operating results, specifically: (i) (gain) loss on disposal/write-down of property, plant and equipment (excluding real estate), net; (ii) intangible impairments; (iii) other expense (income), net (which includes foreign currency transaction (gains) losses, net, and debt extinguishment expense); (iv) real estate financing lease depreciation; (v) Significant Acquisition Costs; (vi) Restructuring Charges; (vii) COVID-19 Costs; (viii) the tax impact of reconciling items and discrete tax items; (ix) loss (income) from discontinued operations, net of tax; and (x) loss (gain) on sale of discontinued operations, net of tax.

Adjusted Funds From Operations, or AFFO
AFFO is defined as FFO (Normalized) excluding non-cash rent expense or income plus depreciation on non-real estate assets, amortization expense associated with customer relationship value (CRV), intake costs, acquisitions of customer relationships and other intangibles, and excluding amortization expense associated with capitalized internal commissions, amortization of deferred financing costs, revenue reduction associated with amortization of permanent withdrawal fees and above-and below-market data center leases, stock-based compensation expense and the impact of reconciling to normalized cash taxes, less recurring capital expenditures and non-real estate growth investments, excluding Significant Acquisition Capital Expenditures. We believe AFFO is a useful measure in determining our ability to generate excess cash that may be used for reinvestment in the business, discretionary deployment in investments such as real estate or acquisition opportunities, returning capital to our stockholders and voluntary prepayments of indebtedness. Additionally AFFO is reconciled to cash flow from operations to adjust for real estate and REIT tax adjustments, Significant Acquisition Costs, Restructuring Charges, and other non-cash expenses. AFFO does not include adjustments for customer inducements, acquisition of customer relationships and investment in innovation as we consider these expenditures to be growth related.
