Risks for IRON MOUNTAIN INC (IRM)

As stored records and tapes become less active our service revenue growth and profitability may decline.

Governmental and customer focus on data security could increase our costs of operations. We may not be able to fully offset these costs through increases in our rates. Incidents in which we fail to protect our customers' information against security breaches could result in monetary damages against us and could otherwise damage our reputation, harm our businesses and adversely impact our results of operations. In addition, if we fail to protect our own information, including information about our employees, we could experience significant costs and expenses as well as damage to our reputation.

Attacks on our internal IT systems could damage our reputation, harm our businesses and adversely impact our results of operations.

We have operations in numerous foreign countries and, as a result, are subject to foreign exchange translation risk, which could have an adverse effect on our financial results.

We may be subject to certain costs and potential liabilities associated with the real estate required for our business.
