Total Revenues are $582 Million, Up 14%
Operating Income is $103 Million
OIBDA is $154 Million; 26.5% of Revenues
Net Income is $0.28 per Diluted Share
BOSTON, July 27 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Iron Mountain Incorporated
(NYSE: IRM), the global leader in information protection and storage services,
today announced its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30,
2006, reporting higher revenues, strong internal revenue growth and net income
for the quarter of $0.28 per diluted share.
Iron Mountain's total consolidated revenues for the quarter ended June 30,
2006 grew to $582 million, an increase of 14% compared to the quarter ended
June 30, 2005. For the quarter, storage revenues grew 12% and service revenues
grew 15% compared to the same period in 2005. Storage revenues, which are
considered a key performance indicator for the records management and data
protection services industry, are largely recurring since customers typically
retain their records for many years. This marks the 70th consecutive quarter
for which the Company has reported increased storage revenues.
For the second quarter of 2006, the storage and service revenue internal
growth rates were 11% and 8%, respectively, yielding a total internal revenue
growth rate of 9%. The total core storage and services revenue internal growth
rate was 10% for the quarter.
"Our business is performing well across geographies and service lines led
by strong revenue growth, particularly storage revenues, the key driver of our
business. We continue making the investments we believe will further enhance
our ability to capture the tremendous market opportunity we see before us and
drive future revenue growth and profitability," stated Richard Reese, the
Company's Chairman and CEO.
Operating income before depreciation and amortization ("OIBDA") was $154
million, or 26.5% of revenues, for the quarter ended June 30, 2006 compared to
$141 million, or 27.6% of revenues, for the quarter ended June 30, 2005. See
Appendix A at the end of this press release for a discussion of OIBDA and the
required reconciliation to the appropriate GAAP measures.
Operating income for the second quarter of 2006 was $103 million, or 18%
of revenues, compared to $97 million, or 19% of revenues, for the same period
in 2005. Net income for the quarter was $38 million, or $0.28 per diluted
share, compared to $25 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, for the same
period in 2005.
Included in net income for the quarter is $7 million, or $0.03 per diluted
share, of other income, net comprised of foreign currency related net gains.
The foreign currency related gains were due primarily to the strengthening of
the British Pound Sterling and the Canadian Dollar compared to March 31, 2006.
Included in net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2005, is $5 million, or
$0.02 per diluted share, of other expense, net comprised primarily of foreign
currency related net losses, due primarily to the weakening of the British
Pound Sterling and the Euro.
For the six months ended June 30, 2006, the Company reported total
consolidated revenues of $1.1 billion, an increase of 13%, with storage
revenues growing at 12% and service revenues growing at 14% compared to the
prior year. For the first six months of the year, storage and service revenue
internal growth rates were 11% and 8%, respectively, yielding a total internal
revenue growth rate of 9%.
OIBDA was $296 million, or 25.9% of revenues, for the six months ended
June 30, 2006 compared to $277 million, or 27.3% of revenues, for the six
months ended June 30, 2005.
Operating income for the first six months of 2006 was $195 million, or 17%
of revenues, compared to $188 million, or 19% of revenues, for 2005. Net
income was $65 million, or $0.49 per diluted share, for the first six months
of 2006, compared to $48 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, for the
comparable period in 2005.
Included in net income for the six months ended June 30, 2006, is $10
million, or $0.04 per diluted share, of other income, net comprised primarily
of foreign currency related net gains, due primarily to the strengthening of
the British Pound Sterling and the Canadian Dollar. Included in net income for
the six months ended June 30, 2005, is $10 million, or $0.04 per diluted
share, of other expense, net comprised almost exclusively of foreign currency
related net losses, due primarily to the weakening of the British Pound
Sterling, the Canadian Dollar and the Euro.
In line with its strategy, Iron Mountain acquires attractive businesses
that provide a strong platform for future growth by expanding the Company's
geographic footprint and information protection and storage service offerings
while enhancing its existing operations. Since the end of the first quarter,
the Company has completed several acquisitions including a 50.1% joint venture
in India, a leading data protection business in Australia/New Zealand, a
document management services business in Brazil, and several small shredding
and records management businesses in North America.

APPENDIX A
Operating Income Before Depreciation and Amortization
The Company uses Operating Income Before Depreciation and Amortization
("OIBDA"), an integral part of its planning and reporting systems, to evaluate
the operating performance of the consolidated business. As such, the Company
believes OIBDA provides current and potential investors with relevant and
useful information regarding its ability to grow revenues faster than
operating expenses. Additionally, the Company uses multiples of current and
projected OIBDA in conjunction with its discounted cash flow models to
determine its overall enterprise valuation and to evaluate acquisition
targets. OIBDA is not a measurement of financial performance under accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP, and should not be
considered as a substitute for operating or net income or cash flows from
operating activities (as determined in accordance with GAAP).
Following is a reconciliation of operating income before depreciation and
amortization to operating income and net income (in millions):

Free Cash Flows Before Acquisitions and Investments, or FCF
FCF is defined as Cash Flows From Operating Activities less capital
expenditures, net of proceeds from the sales of property and equipment and
other, net, and additions to customer acquisition costs. Our management uses
this measure when evaluating the operating performance and profitability of
our consolidated business. FCF is a useful measure in determining our ability
to generate cash flows in excess of our capital expenditures (both growth and
maintenance) and our customer acquisition costs. As such, we believe this
measure provides relevant and useful information to our current and potential
investors. FCF should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute
for, other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with GAAP,
such as cash flows from operating activities (as determined in accordance with
GAAP).
