Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract] |
Acquisitions | ACQUISITIONS We account for acquisitions using the acquisition method of accounting, and, accordingly, the assets and liabilities acquired are recorded at their estimated fair values and the results of operations for each acquisition have been included in our consolidated results from their respective acquisition dates. A. ACQUISITIONS COMPLETED DURING THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2023 WEB WERKS On July 7, 2023, we made our final contractual investment in the Web Werks JV (as defined in Note 5) of approximately 3,750,000 Indian rupees (or approximately $45,300, based upon the exchange rate between the United States dollar and Indian rupee on the closing date of this investment) (the "Web Werks Transaction"). As a result of the Web Werks Transaction, our interest in the Web Werks JV increased to 63.39%, we assumed control of its board of directors and the financial results of the Web Werks JV are now consolidated within our Global Data Center Business segment. We recognized noncontrolling interests of approximately $78,600 based upon the fair value attributable to these interests at the time of the Web Werks Transaction, of which approximately $18,100 of the noncontrolling interests were determined to be a current liability and included as a component of Accrued expenses and other current liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2023. CLUTTER On June 29, 2023, in order to further expand our on-demand consumer storage business, we acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of Clutter Intermediate, Inc. and control of all assets of the Clutter JV (collectively, "Clutter") for total consideration of $60,600 (the “Clutter Acquisition”). The financial results of the Clutter JV are now consolidated within our Global RIM Business segment. In October 2023, we sold 15% of the equity interests in Clutter to certain former stakeholders of the Clutter JV for a total consideration of $7,500, which represents the fair value attributable to these interests, which is included as a component of Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests on our Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2023. B. ACQUISITIONS CLOSED SUBSEQUENT TO DECEMBER 31, 2023 REGENCY TECHNOLOGIES On January 3, 2024, in order to expand our ALM business, we acquired RSR Partners, LLC (doing business as Regency Technologies), an IT asset disposition services provider with operations throughout the United States, for an initial purchase price of approximately $200,000, with $125,000 paid at closing, funded by borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, and the remaining amount to be paid in 2025 (the "Regency Transaction"). The agreement for the Regency Transaction also includes potential performance-based contingent consideration, which would be payable in 2027, if earned. We will record a preliminary purchase price allocation for the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with the Regency Transaction based on their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. Given the Regency Transaction recently closed, the preliminary purchase price allocation is still in process and is incomplete as of this filing date. C. ACQUISITIONS COMPLETED DURING THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2022 ITRENEW On January 25, 2022, in order to expand our ALM operations, we acquired an approximately 80% interest in ITRenew at an agreed upon purchase price of $725,000, subject to certain working capital adjustments at, and subsequent to, the closing (the "ITRenew Transaction"). At closing, we paid $748,846 and acquired $30,720 of cash on hand, for a net purchase price of $718,126 for the ITRenew Transaction. The acquisition agreement provides us the option to purchase, and provides the shareholders of ITRenew the option to sell, the remaining approximately 20% interest in ITRenew as follows: (i) approximately 16% on or after the second anniversary of the ITRenew Transaction and (ii) approximately 4% on or after the third anniversary of the ITRenew Transaction (collectively, the "Remaining Interests"). The total payments for the Remaining Interests, based on the achievement of certain targeted performance metrics, will be no less than $200,000 and no more than $531,000 (the "Deferred Purchase Obligation"). From January 25, 2022, we consolidate 100% of the revenues and expenses associated with this business. The current and long-term portions of the Deferred Purchase Obligation are reflected as components of Accrued expenses and other current liabilities and Other long-term liabilities, respectively, in our Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, and, accordingly, we have not reflected any non-controlling interests associated with the ITRenew Transaction as the Remaining Interests have non-substantive equity interest rights. Subsequent increases or decreases in the fair value estimate of the Deferred Purchase Obligation are included as a component of Other expense (income), net in our Consolidated Statements of Operations until the Deferred Purchase Obligation is settled or paid. See Note 2.v. The unaudited consolidated pro forma financial information (the "Pro Forma Financial Information") below summarizes the combined results of Iron Mountain and ITRenew on a pro forma basis as if the ITRenew Transaction had occurred on January 1, 2021. The Pro Forma Financial Information is presented for informational purposes and is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would have been achieved if the acquisition had taken place on January 1, 2021. The Pro Forma Financial Information, for the periods presented, includes purchase accounting adjustments (including amortization of acquired customer and supplier intangible assets and depreciation of acquired property, plant and equipment) and related tax effects. Through December 31, 2022, we and ITRenew collectively incurred $59,370 of operating expenditures to complete the ITRenew Transaction (including advisory and professional fees). These operating expenditures have been reflected within the results of operations in the Pro Forma Financial Information as if they were incurred on January 1, 2021.

In addition to our acquisition of ITRenew, we completed certain other acquisitions during the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021. The Pro Forma Financial Information does not reflect these acquisitions due to the insignificant impact of these acquisitions on our consolidated results of operations. XDATA PROPERTIES On October 5, 2022, in order to further expand our data center operations in Europe, we completed the acquisition of XData Properties S.L.U., a data center colocation space and solutions provider with a data center in Spain, which we accounted for as an asset acquisition, for (i) cash consideration of 78,900 Euros (or approximately $78,200, based upon the exchange rate between the Euro and the United States dollar on the closing date of this acquisition), subject to adjustments, and (ii) up to 10,000 Euros (or approximately $9,900, based upon the exchange rate between the Euro and the United States dollar on the closing date of this acquisition) of additional consideration, payable based on the achievement of certain power connection milestones through December 2024. D. ACQUISITIONS COMPLETED DURING THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2021 On September 15, 2021, in order to further expand our records management operations in the Middle East and North Africa, we acquired Information Fort, LLC, a records and information management provider, for approximately $90,300. On September 23, 2021, in order to further enhance our data center operations in Germany, we completed the acquisition of assets of a Frankfurt data center for approximately 77,900 Euros (or approximately $91,300, based upon the exchange rate between the Euro and the United States dollar on the closing date of this acquisition). In addition to the transactions noted above, during the year ended December 31, 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 $45,100.

(1)Cash paid for acquisitions, net of cash acquired in our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows includes contingent and other payments of $2,930, $581 and $0 for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively, related to acquisitions made in the years prior to 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively. (2)The fair values of the noncontrolling interests and the previously held equity interest were determined to be the respective interest’s proportionate share of the fair value of net assets acquired as of the acquisition date. (3)In 2022, Deferred purchase obligation, purchase price holdbacks and other includes $275,100 related to the original fair value estimate of the Deferred Purchase Obligation for the Remaining Interests. (4)The weighted average lives of customer and supplier relationship intangible assets associated with acquisitions in 2023, 2022 and 2021 were four years, 12 years and 11 years, respectively. Allocations of the purchase price for acquisitions are based on estimates of the fair value of the net assets acquired and are subject to adjustment upon the finalization of the purchase price allocations. The accounting for business combinations requires estimates and judgments regarding expectations for future cash flows of the acquired business, and the allocations of those cash flows to identifiable tangible and intangible assets, in determining the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The fair values assigned to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including contingent consideration, are based on management’s best estimates and assumptions, as well as other information compiled by management, including valuations that utilize customary valuation procedures and techniques. The estimates and assumptions underlying the initial valuations are subject to the collection of information necessary to complete the valuations within the measurement periods, which are up to one year from the respective acquisition dates. As the valuation of certain assets and liabilities for purposes of purchase price allocations are preliminary in nature, they are subject to adjustment as additional information is obtained about the facts and circumstances regarding these assets and liabilities that existed at the acquisition date. The preliminary purchase price allocations that are not finalized as of December 31, 2023 relate to the final assessment of the fair values of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets associated with the acquisitions we closed during the year ended December 31, 2023. Any adjustments to our estimates of purchase price allocation will be made in the periods in which the adjustments are determined and the cumulative effect of such adjustments will be calculated as if the adjustments had been completed as of the acquisition dates. Purchase price allocation adjustments recorded during the fourth quarter of 2023 and year ended December 31, 2023 were not material to our balance sheet or results from operations.
