IRON MOUNTAIN INCORPORATED
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(In Thousands, Except Share and Per Share Data)
(Unaudited)
(1) General
The interim consolidated financial statements are presented herein without audit 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 consolidated balance sheet presented as of December 31, 2002 has been derived from the consolidated financial statements that have been audited by our independent public accountants. The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, but we believe that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The consolidated financial statements and notes included herein should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2002.
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2002 financial statements to conform to the 2003 presentation.
(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
a. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Effective July 1, 2001 and January 1, 2002, we adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 141, "Business Combinations" and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," respectively. SFAS No. 141 requires all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 to be accounted for using the purchase method. Under SFAS No. 142, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are no longer amortized but are reviewed annually for impairment or more frequently if impairment indicators arise. Separable intangible assets that are not deemed to have indefinite lives will continue to be amortized over their useful lives.
The result of testing our goodwill for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 142, as of January 1, 2002, was a charge of $6,396 (net of minority interest of $8,487), which, consistent with SFAS No. 142, is reported in the caption "cumulative effect of change in accounting principle" in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations. Impairment adjustments recognized in the future, if any, are generally required to be recognized as operating expenses. The $6,396 charge relates to our South American reporting unit within our international reporting segment. The South American reporting unit failed the impairment test primarily due to a reduction in the expected future performance of the unit resulting from a deterioration of the local economic environment and the devaluation of the currency in Argentina. As goodwill amortization expense in our South American reporting unit is not deductible for tax purposes, this impairment charge is not net of a tax benefit. We have a controlling 50.1% interest in Iron Mountain South America, Ltd ("IMSA") and the remainder is owned by an unaffiliated entity. IMSA has acquired a controlling interest in entities in which local partners have retained a minority interest in order to enhance our local market expertise. These local partners have no ownership interest in IMSA. This has caused the minority interest portion of the goodwill impairment charge ($8,487) to exceed our portion of the goodwill impairment charge ($6,396). In accordance with SFAS No. 142, we selected October 1 as our annual goodwill impairment review
7
date. We performed our annual goodwill impairment review as of October 1, 2002 and noted no impairment of goodwill at our reporting units as of that date. As of June 30, 2003, no factors were identified that would alter this assessment.
The changes in the carrying value of goodwill attributable to each reportable operating segment for the period ended June 30, 2003 are as follows:
| Business Records Management | Off-Site Data Protection | International | Corporate & Other | Total Consolidated | |||||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Balance as of December 31, 2002 | $ | 1,151,760 | $ | 237,178 | $ | 154,665 | $ | 1,371 | $ | 1,544,974 | ||||||
Goodwill acquired during the year | 10,543 | 6,809 | 562 | — | 17,914 | |||||||||||

The components of our amortizable intangible assets at June 30, 2003 are as follows:
| Gross Carrying Amount | Accumulated Amortization | Net Carrying Amount | ||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Customer Relationships and Acquisition Costs | $ | 64,023 | $ | 11,696 | $ | 52,327 | |||
Non-Compete Agreements | 20,807 | 18,511 | 2,296 | ||||||

Total | $ | 110,687 | $ | 34,536 | $ | 76,151 | |||
b. Stock Based Compensation
In December 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosure," which amended SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to a fair value based method of accounting for stock-based compensation. SFAS No. 148 allows for (a) a prospective method, (b) a modified prospective method and (c) a retroactive restatement method. We have adopted the fair value method of accounting in our financial statements beginning January 1, 2003 using the prospective method. The prospective method involves recognizing expense for the fair value for all awards granted or modified in the year of adoption and thereafter with no expense recognition for previous awards. We will apply the fair value recognition provisions to all stock based awards granted, modified or settled on or after January 1, 2003 and will continue to provide the required pro forma information for all awards previously granted, modified or settled before January 1, 2003.
8
Had we elected to recognize compensation cost based on the fair value of the options granted at grant date as prescribed by SFAS No. 123 and No. 148, net income and net income per share would have been changed to the pro forma amounts indicated in the table below:
| Three Months Ended June 30, | Six Months Ended June 30, | ||||||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2002 | 2003 | 2002 | 2003 | ||||||||||
Net income, as reported | $ | 19,989 | $ | 20,133 | $ | 26,111 | $ | 41,417 | ||||||
Add: Stock-based employee compensation expense included in reported net income, net of tax benefit | — | 99 | — | 122 | ||||||||||
Deduct: Total stock-based employee compensation expense determined under fair value based method for all awards, net of tax benefit | (760 | ) | (642 | ) | (1,509 | ) | (1,180 | ) | ||||||
Net income, pro forma | $ | 19,229 | $ | 19,590 | $ | 24,602 | $ | 40,359 | ||||||
Earnings per share: | ||||||||||||||
Basic—as reported | 0.24 | 0.24 | 0.31 | 0.49 | ||||||||||
Basic—pro forma | 0.23 | 0.23 | 0.29 | 0.47 | ||||||||||
Diluted—as reported | 0.23 | 0.23 | 0.30 | 0.48 | ||||||||||
Diluted—pro forma | 0.22 | 0.23 | 0.29 | 0.47 |
The weighted average fair value of options granted for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2003 was $9.93 and $10.95 per share, respectively. The values were estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The following table summarizes the weighted average assumptions used for grants in the respective period:
Weighted Average Assumptions | Six Months Ended June 30, 2002 | Six Months Ended June 30, 2003 | ||
---|---|---|---|---|
Expected volatility | 25.0% | 27.5% | ||
Risk-free interest rate | 4.55 | 2.87 | ||
Expected dividend yield | None | None | ||
Expected life of the option | 5.0 years | 5.0 years |
c. Income (Loss) Per Share—Basic and Diluted
In accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share," basic net income (loss) per common share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. The calculation of diluted net income (loss) per share is consistent with that of basic net income (loss) per share but gives effect to all potential common shares (that is, securities such as options, warrants or convertible securities) that were outstanding during the period, unless the effect is antidilutive. Potential common shares, substantially attributable to stock options, included in the calculation of diluted net income per share totaled 1,544,445 shares and 1,569,943 shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and 1,558,888 shares and 1,506,562 shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively.
9
d. New Accounting Pronouncements
In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, "Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44 and 64, amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections," which, among other things, limits the classification of gains and losses from extinguishment of debt as extraordinary to only those transactions that are unusual and infrequent in nature as defined by APB Opinion No. 30 "Reporting the Results of Operations—Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions." We adopted SFAS No. 145 on January 1, 2003. Gains and losses on certain future debt extinguishments, if any, will be recorded in pre-tax income. Losses on early extinguishment of debt of $0 and $1,222 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and $13,841 and $15,665 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively, are included in other income, net in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations to conform to the requirements under SFAS No. 145.
(3) Comprehensive Income (Loss)
SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," requires presentation of the components of comprehensive income (loss), including the changes in equity from non-owner sources such as unrealized gains (losses) on hedging transactions, securities and foreign currency translation adjustments. Our total comprehensive income (loss) is as follows:

(4) Variable Interest Entities
During the third quarter of 2002 we changed the characterization and the related accounting for properties in one variable interest entity ("VIE III") at such time and prospectively for new property acquisitions added to VIE III. In addition, anticipating the requirement to consolidate, and in line with our objective of transparent reporting, we voluntarily guaranteed all of the at-risk equity in VIE III and our two other variable interest entities (together, the "Other Variable Interest Entities" and, collectively with VIE III, our "Variable Interest Entities"). These guarantees resulted in our consolidating all of our Variable Interest Entities' assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2002. As a result of the consolidation of our Variable Interest Entities, (1) rent expense decreased $2,408 and interest expense and depreciation increased $3,503 and $945, respectively, in our consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2002, and (2) rent expense decreased $5,047 and interest expense and depreciation increased $6,914 and $1,890,
10
respectively, in our consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2002.
(5) Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
Effective January 1, 2001, we adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS No. 133 requires that every derivative instrument be recorded in the balance sheet as either an asset or a liability measured at its fair value. Periodically, we acquire derivative instruments that are intended to hedge either cash flows or values that are subject to exchange or other market price risk, and not for trading purposes. We have formally documented our hedging relationships, including identification of the hedging instruments and the hedge items, as well as our risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking each hedge transaction.
We have entered into two interest rate swap agreements, which are derivatives as defined by SFAS No. 133 and designated as cash flow hedges. These swap agreements hedge interest rate risk on certain amounts of our term loan. We have recorded, in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, the estimated cost to terminate these swaps (fair value of the derivative liability), a deferred tax asset and a corresponding charge to accumulated other comprehensive items of $18,504 ($8,128 recorded in accrued expenses and $10,376 recorded in other long-term liabilities), $6,751 and $11,753, respectively, as of June 30, 2003. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, we recorded additional interest expense of $1,882 and $3,679, respectively, resulting from interest rate swap settlements. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, we recorded additional interest expense of $2,155 and $4,273, respectively, resulting from interest rate swap settlements. These interest rate swap agreements were determined to be highly effective, and therefore no ineffectiveness was recorded in earnings.
In addition, we have entered into a third interest rate swap agreement, which was designated as a cash flow hedge through December 31, 2002. This swap agreement hedged interest rate risk on certain amounts of our variable operating lease commitments. We have recorded, in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, the estimated cost to terminate this swap (fair value of the derivative liability), a deferred tax asset and a corresponding charge to accumulated other comprehensive items of $2,340 ($1,638 recorded in accrued expenses and $702 recorded in other long-term liabilities), $854 and $1,486, respectively, as of June 30, 2003. From inception through December 31, 2002, this interest rate swap agreement was determined to be highly effective, and therefore no ineffectiveness was recorded in earnings. As a result of the consolidation of one of the Other Variable Interest Entities ("VIE I") on December 31, 2002, we consolidated the real estate term loans of VIE I and the operating lease commitments that were hedged by this swap are now considered to be inter-company transactions. As a result, this interest rate swap agreement was deemed to be no longer effective on a prospective basis. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, we recorded additional rent expense of $439 and $878, respectively, resulting from the settlements associated with this interest rate swap agreement. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, we recorded additional interest expense of $509 and $1,002, respectively, resulting from the settlements associated with this interest rate swap agreement.
Also, we consolidated VIE III which had entered into an interest rate swap agreement upon its inception that was designated as a cash flow hedge. This swap agreement hedges the majority of interest rate risk associated with VIE III's real estate term loans. We have recorded, in the
11
accompanying consolidated balance sheets, the estimated cost to terminate this swap (fair value of the derivative liability), a deferred tax asset and a corresponding charge to accumulated other comprehensive items of $15,134 ($4,691 recorded in accrued expenses and $10,443 recorded in other long-term liabilities), $5,521 and $9,613, respectively, as of June 30, 2003. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, we recorded additional interest expense of $1,184 and $2,345, respectively, resulting from interest rate swap settlements. This interest rate swap agreement has been since inception and continues to be a highly effective hedge, and therefore no ineffectiveness was recorded in earnings.
(6) Acquisitions
During the six months ended June 30, 2003, we purchased substantially all of the assets, and assumed certain liabilities, of four businesses.
Each of the 2003 acquisitions were accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and, accordingly, the results of operations for each acquisition have been included in our consolidated results from their respective acquisition dates. For the 2003 acquisitions, the aggregate purchase price exceeded the underlying fair value of the net assets acquired by $17,914 which has been assigned to goodwill and, consistent with SFAS No. 142, has not been amortized.
In connection with each of our acquisitions, we have undertaken certain restructurings of the acquired businesses. The restructuring activities include certain reductions in staffing levels, elimination of duplicate facilities and other costs associated with exiting certain activities of the acquired businesses. The estimated cost of these restructuring activities were recorded as costs of the acquisitions and were provided in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 95-3, "Recognition of Liabilities in Connection with a Purchase Business Combination." We finalize restructuring plans for each business no later than one year from the date of acquisition. Unresolved matters at June 30, 2003 primarily include completion of planned abandonments of facilities and severances for certain acquisitions.
The following is a summary of reserves related to such restructuring activities:
| Year Ended December 31, 2002 | Six Months Ended June 30, 2003 | |||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Reserves, Beginning Balance | $ | 16,225 | $ | 9,906 | |||

Reserves, Ending Balance | $ | 9,906 | $ | 7,255 | |||
- (1)
- Includes adjustments to goodwill as a result of management finalizing its restructuring plans.
At June 30, 2003, the restructuring reserves related to acquisitions consisted of lease losses on abandoned facilities of $4,341, severance costs for six people of $492 and other exit costs of $2,422. These accruals are expected to be used prior to June 30, 2004 except for lease losses of $2,657 and severance contracts of $370, both of which are based on contracts that extend beyond one year.

On March 15, 2002, we entered into a new amended and restated revolving credit agreement (together with the term loan, the "Amended and Restated Credit Agreement"). The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement replaced our prior credit agreement. As a result, we recorded a charge to other income, net in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations of $1,222 related to the early retirement of debt in conjunction with the refinancing of our credit facility.
As of June 30, 2003, we had no borrowings under our revolving credit facility. We had various outstanding letters of credit totaling $34,451. The remaining availability under the revolving credit facility was $365,549 as of June 30, 2003.
Our Variable Interest Entities were financed with real estate term loans. See Note 4. As of June 30, 2003, these real estate term loans amounted to $202,647. No further financing is currently available to our Variable Interest Entities to fund further property acquisitions. The real estate term loans held by our Variable Interest Entities have always been and continue to be treated as indebtedness for purposes of our financial covenants under our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. As of the date they were consolidated into our financial statements, they were considered indebtedness under our Parent notes and Subsidiary notes.
In January 2003, we redeemed the remaining $23,183 of outstanding principal amount of our 91/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2007 (the "91/8% notes"), at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) of 104.563%, plus accrued and unpaid interest, with proceeds from our underwritten public offering of $100,000 in aggregate principal of our 73/4% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2015 (the "73/4% notes"). We recorded a charge to other income, net in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations of $1,824 in the first quarter of 2003 related to the early retirement of the remaining 91/8% notes.
In March 2003, we completed two debt exchanges which resulted in the issuance of $31,255 in face value of our 73/4% notes and the retirement of $30,000 of our 83/4% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2009 (the "83/4% notes"). These non-cash debt exchanges resulted in carryover basis and, therefore, no gain (loss) on extinguishment of debt in accordance with EITF No. 96-19, "Debtor's Accounting for Modification or Exchange of Debt Instruments." These exchanges result in a lower interest rate and, therefore, lower interest expense in future periods as well as extend the maturity of our debt obligations. From time to time, we may enter into similar exchange transactions that we deem appropriate.
In April 2003, we completed an underwritten public offering of an additional $300,000 in aggregate principal amount of our 73/4% notes, which were issued at a price to investors of 104% of par, implying an effective yield to worst of 7.066%. Our net proceeds of $307,340, after paying the underwriters' discounts, commissions and transaction fees, were used to fund our offer to purchase and consent solicitation relating to our outstanding 83/4% notes, to otherwise redeem the 83/4% notes, and for general corporate purposes, including the repayment of borrowings under our revolving credit facility, the repayment of other indebtedness and future acquisitions.
In April 2003, we received and accepted tenders for $143,317 of the $220,000 aggregate principal amount outstanding of our 83/4% notes. In May 2003, we redeemed the remaining $76,683 of outstanding principal amount of our 83/4% notes, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of
14
principal amount) of 104.375%, plus accrued and unpaid interest. We recorded a charge to other income, net of $13,841 in the second quarter of 2003 related to the early retirement of the 83/4% notes, which consists of redemption premiums and transaction costs, as well as original issue discount and unamortized deferred financing costs related to the 83/4% notes.
In June 2003, we completed an underwritten public offering of $150,000 in aggregate principal amount of 65/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2016 (the "65/8% notes"). The 65/8% notes were issued at a price to investors of 100% of par. Our net proceeds of $147,500, after paying the underwriters' discounts, commissions and transaction fees, were used to redeem $50,000 in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Subsidiary notes and the remainder was used for acquisitions, both of which occurred in July 2003 after our second quarter ended.
Our 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 our indentures and other agreements governing our indebtedness. As of June 30, 2003, we were in compliance in all material respects with all debt covenants.

- Total corporate & other assets include the intersegment elimination amount of $1,551,676 and $1,430,439 as of June 30, 2002 and 2003, respectively.
The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in Note 2 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2002 except that certain costs are allocated from Corporate to the other segments in both 2002 and 2003, primarily to our Business Records Management and Off-Site Data Protection segments. These allocations, which include rent, worker's compensation, property, general liability, auto and other insurance, pension/medical costs, sick and vacation costs, incentive compensation, real estate property taxes and provision for bad debts, are based on rates set at the beginning of each year. Contribution for each segment is defined as total revenues less cost of sales (excluding depreciation) and selling, general and administrative expenses including the costs allocated to each segment as described above. Internally, we use Contribution as the basis for evaluating the performance of and allocating resources to our operating segments.

(10) Commitments and Contingencies
We are a party to numerous operating leases. No material changes in the obligations associated with these leases have occurred since December 31, 2002. See our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2002 for amounts outstanding at December 31, 2002.
We are involved in litigation from time to time in the ordinary course of business with a portion of the defense and/or settlement costs being covered by various commercial liability insurance policies purchased by us. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, the outcome of outstanding legal proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations, although there can be no assurance in this regard.
(11) Subsequent Events
In July 2003, we redeemed $50,000 of outstanding principal amount of the Subsidiary notes, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) of 104.063%, plus accrued and unpaid interest. We will record a charge to other (income) expense, net of $5,600 in the third quarter of 2003 related to the early retirement of these Subsidiary notes, which consists of redemption premiums and transaction costs, as well as original issue discount related to these Subsidiary notes.
In July 2003, we and Iron Mountain Europe Limited ("IME"), our European joint venture, completed the acquisition of the information management services business of Hays plc ("Hays IMS") in two simultaneous transactions. IME acquired the European operations of Hays IMS for aggregate cash consideration at closing of 185,500 pounds sterling ($304,000), while we acquired the U.S. operations of Hays IMS for aggregate cash consideration at closing of 14,500 pounds sterling ($24,000).
26
The final purchase price is subject to post-closing adjustments. Both transactions were on a cash and debt free basis.
We provided the initial financing to IME for all of the consideration associated with the acquisition of the European operations using cash on hand and borrowings under our revolving credit facility. In order to minimize the foreign currency risk associated with providing IME with the consideration necessary for the acquisition of Hay IMS, we borrowed 80,000 pounds sterling under our revolving credit agreement to create a natural hedge. Additionally, on July 16, 2003 we entered into two cross currency swaps with a combined notional value of 100,000 pounds sterling. These swaps each have a term of one year and at maturity we have a right to receive $162,800 in exchange for 100,000 pounds sterling. We have not designated these swaps as hedges and will record all mark to market fluctuations of the swaps as a foreign currency gain or loss in future consolidated statements of operations. IME is currently obtaining permanent financing to repay all or a portion of the funding received from us.

Critical Accounting Policies
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. 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 on-going basis, we evaluate the estimates used, including those related to the allowance for doubtful accounts, impairments of tangible and intangible assets, income taxes, purchase accounting related reserves, self-insurance liabilities, incentive compensation liabilities, litigation liabilities and contingencies. 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. We use these estimates to assist us in the identification and assessment of the accounting treatment necessary with respect to commitments and contingencies. Actual results may differ from these estimates under
28
different assumptions or conditions. Our critical accounting policies include the following and are in no particular order:
- •
- Accounting for Acquisitions
- •
- Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
- •
- Accounting for Variable Interest Entities
- •
- Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
- •
- Accounting for Internal Use Software
- •
- Deferred Income Taxes
Further detail regarding our critical accounting policies can be found in the consolidated financial statements and the notes included in our latest Annual Report on Form 10-K/A as filed with the SEC. Management has determined that no material changes concerning our critical accounting policies has occurred since our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2002.

- We believe that EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) is useful to investors because it is an important financial measure used in evaluating our performance, as EBITDA is an internally generated source of funds for investment in continued growth and for servicing indebtedness. Externally, holders of our publicly issued debt use EBITDA and EBITDA-based calculations as important criteria for evaluating us and, as a result, all of our bond indentures include EBITDA and EBITDA-based calculations as primary measures of financial performance.

Revenue
Consolidated storage revenues increased $22.0 million, or 11.8%, to $209.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003. The increase was primarily attributable to internal revenue growth of 8.4% resulting from net increases in records and other media stored by existing customers, sales to new customers and acquisitions. The net effect of foreign currency translation on storage revenues was an increase in revenue of $2.9 million. This was a result of a strengthening of the British pound sterling, the Canadian dollar, and the Euro against the U.S. dollar, offset by a weakening of the Brazilian real against the U.S. dollar, based on an analysis of weighted average rates for the comparable periods.
Consolidated service and storage material sales revenues increased $9.6 million, or 6.8%, to $150.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003. The increase was primarily attributable to internal revenue growth of 2.9% resulting from net increases in service and storage material sales to existing customers and sales to new customers, foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and acquisitions. The net effect of foreign currency translation on service and storage material sales revenues was an increase in revenue of $2.6 million. This was a result of a strengthening of the British pound sterling, the Canadian dollar, and the Euro against the U.S. dollar, offset by a weakening of the Brazilian real against the U.S. dollar, based on an analysis of weighted average rates for the comparable periods.
For the reasons stated above, our consolidated revenues increased $31.6 million, or 9.6%, to $359.3 million. Internal revenue growth for the three months ended June 30, 2003 was 6.1%. We calculate internal revenue growth in local currency for our international operations.

Our internal revenue growth rate represents the year over year growth rate of our revenues after removing the effects of acquisitions and foreign currency exchange fluctuations. Over the past eight quarters, the internal growth rate of our storage revenues has ranged from a high of 10.9% to a low of 8.0%. The most recent two quarters show our storage revenue internal growth rate coming off its two-year low and increasing steadily. We attribute this to higher growth rates in our international businesses, primarily Europe, stabilized growth in our North American records management business and higher growth rates in our digital businesses. Prior to this, the storage revenue growth rate experienced a steady decline primarily due to a reduction in the rate at which customers added new cartons to their inventory. During the second quarter of 2003, we did see a decline in carton destructions and other permanent removals. If this develops into a trend and the trend continues, storage revenue growth will be favorably impacted.
The internal growth rate for service and storage material sales revenue is inherently more volatile than the storage revenue internal growth rate. The volatility arises from the more discretionary services we offer such as large special projects, data products and carton sales and recycled paper. These revenues are impacted to a greater extent by an economic downturn as customers defer or cancel the purchase of these services as a way to reduce their short-term costs. As a commodity, recycled paper prices are subject to the volatility of that market. The growth rate in the second quarter of 2003 was
31
negatively impacted by several factors. Carton destructions and other permanent removals decreased, data product sales decreased, as information technology spending remained tight, and large special project revenue did not achieve the same high levels experienced in the second quarter of 2002. In addition, our off-site data protection business continued to operate in a market experiencing downward pressure on information technology spending as companies look to reduce their costs.
Cost of Sales
Consolidated cost of sales (excluding depreciation) is comprised of the following expenses (in thousands):

Labor
The dollar increase in labor expense is primarily attributable to increases in headcount and changes in our labor mix resulting from the expansion of our secure shredding operations. In addition, our domestic operations, which comprise approximately 75% of our workforce, experienced an overall increase in wages due to normal inflation, merit increases and increases in medical insurance expense of $0.4 million.
Facilities
The largest component of our facilities cost is rent expense, which decreased $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 primarily as a result of our consolidating 31 properties owned by our Variable Interest Entities during the third and fourth quarter of 2002. The leases associated with these properties were accounted for as operating leases prior to December 31, 2002. We recorded $2.4 million of rent expense for these 31 properties during the three months ended June 30, 2002 and no rent expense in 2003. Rather than rent expense, we recorded interest expense and depreciation expense associated with these properties for the three months ended June 30, 2003. In addition, we reduced the number of leased facilities we occupy by nine as of June 30, 2003 compared to June 30, 2002 due to our exiting less desirable facilities in connection with our rationalization of properties related to the Pierce Leahy merger. The decrease in rent is offset by increased rent in our European operations of $1.2 million primarily attributable to a new facility and properties acquired through an acquisition.
The dollar increase in facilities expenses is attributable to property taxes, utilities, and property insurance, which increased $1.0 million, $0.9 million, and $0.5 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2002.
32
Transportation
Our transportation expenses are influenced by several variables including total number of vehicles in our fleet, the number of owned versus leased vehicles, use of subcontracted couriers, fuel expenses, and maintenance. Operating lease expense increased $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2002, as a result of an increased percentage of vehicles within our fleet being under operating leases. For the three months ended June 30, 2003, domestic fuel expense increased $0.4 million due to an increase in the average price per gallon of fuel of approximately 10% in 2003 and an increase in the size of our fleet. Our subcontracted courier fees were flat year over year due to better management of internal transportation resources. We experienced a $0.4 million increase in transportation expenses in our European operations, which is primarily attributable to the growth of operations and acquisitions.
Product Cost of Sales and Other Cost of Sales
Product and other cost of sales are highly correlated to complementary revenue streams. Product cost of sales for the three months ended June 30, 2003 was lower than the three months ended June 30, 2002 as a percentage of product revenues due to more focused selling efforts on higher margin product and improved product sourcing.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses are comprised of the following expenses (in thousands):

General and Administrative
The dollar increase in general and administrative expenses is primarily attributable to an increase in wages due to normal inflation and merit increases and an increase in medical expenses. We also experienced a $1.7 million increase in general and administrative expenses in our European operations, which is primarily attributable to the growth of operations and acquisitions and includes approximately $0.4 million associated with the strengthening of the British pound sterling against the U.S. dollar, based on an analysis of weighted average rates for the comparable periods. These increases were offset by decreases in professional fees.
Sales, Marketing & Account Management
The majority of our sales, marketing and account management costs are labor related and are primarily driven by the headcount in each of these departments. Increased headcount and commissions are the most significant contributors to the increase in sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2003. Throughout 2002 and 2003, we continued to invest in the expansion and improvement of our sales force. We added more than 52 new sales and marketing employees since
33
June 30, 2002, a 12% increase in headcount, increased our account management force and initiated several new marketing and promotional efforts in 2003 to develop awareness in the marketplace of our entire service offerings. The costs associated with these efforts have contributed to the increase in our sales, marketing and account management expenses.
Information Technology
Information technology expenses increased $4.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 principally due to higher compensation costs resulting from increased headcount and normal inflation and merit increases of $1.8 million as well as $1.0 million of additional costs primarily incurred for expanding bandwidth and international connectivity. Additionally, as our digital initiatives mature, more of our efforts are maintenance related and capitalizable expenditures are decreasing, which resulted in an increase in information technology costs of $1.5 million.
Bad Debt Expense
The decrease in consolidated bad debt expense for the three months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2002 is primarily attributable to the centralization of our collection efforts within our divisions.
Depreciation, Amortization, Merger-Related Expenses and (Gain) Loss on Disposal/Writedown of Property, Plant and Equipment, Net
Consolidated depreciation and amortization expense increased $4.4 million, or 16.7%, to $30.8 million (8.6% of consolidated revenues) for the three months ended June 30, 2003 from $26.4 million (8.0% of consolidated revenues) for the three months ended June 30, 2002. Depreciation expense increased $4.3 million, primarily due to the additional depreciation expense related to capital expenditures, including storage systems, which include racking, building improvements and leasehold improvements, computer systems hardware and software, and new buildings, and depreciation associated with facilities accounted for as capital leases. Depreciation associated with our digital initiatives increased $1.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2003 as a result of software and hardware assets placed in service throughout 2002. The consolidation of the properties owned by our Variable Interest Entities during 2002 resulted in $0.9 million of additional depreciation in the three months ended June 30, 2003.
Merger-related expenses are certain expenses directly related to our merger with Pierce Leahy that cannot be capitalized and include system conversion costs, costs of exiting certain facilities, severance, relocation and pay-to-stay payments and other transaction-related costs. Merger-related expenses were $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002. All merger related activities associated with the Pierce Leahy merger were completed in 2002.
Consolidated (gain) loss on disposal/writedown of property, plant and equipment, net consisted of $1.7 million of disposals and writedowns during the second quarter of 2003 and a gain of $2.1 million on the sale of a property held by one of our European subsidiaries during the second quarter of 2002.
Interest Expense, Net
Consolidated interest expense, net increased $3.6 million, or 11.0%, to $36.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 from $32.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002. This increase was primarily attributable to $3.5 million of interest expense associated with real estate term loans held by our Variable Interest Entities that were consolidated in the second half of 2002, as well as an increase in our overall weighted average outstanding borrowings. These increases were offset by a
34
decline in our overall weighted average interest rate resulting from a general decline in interest rates coupled with our refinancing efforts.
Other Income, Net
Significant items included in other (income) expense, net include the following (in thousands):

$ | (6,268 | ) | $ | (4,722 | ) | $ | 1,546 | |||
Foreign currency gains of $18.6 million based on period-end exchange rates were recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2003 primarily due to the strengthening of the Canadian dollar and British pound sterling against the U.S. dollar as these currencies relate to our intercompany balances with our Canadian and U.K. subsidiaries, U.S. dollar denominated debt held by our Canadian subsidiary and Canadian dollar borrowings under our revolving credit facility.
During the three months ended June 30, 2003, we redeemed the remaining outstanding principal amount of our 83/4% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2009 (the "83/4% notes") resulting in a charge of $13.8 million. The charge consisted primarily of the call and tender premiums associated with the extinguished debt and the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs.
Provision for Income Taxes
The effective rate was 41.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and the primary reconciling item between the statutory rate of 35% and the effective rate is state income taxes (net of federal benefit). The effective rate projected for 2003 is 42.0%. The effective rate was 41.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2002. There may be future volatility with respect to our effective rate related to items including unusual unforecasted permanent items, significant changes in tax rates in foreign jurisdictions and the need for additional valuation allowances. Also, as a result of our net operating loss carryforwards, we do not expect to pay any significant federal and state income taxes during 2003.
Minority Interest
Minority interest in earnings of subsidiaries, net resulted in a charge to income of $1.6 million (0.4% of consolidated revenues) for the three months ended June 30, 2003 compared to $1.1 million (0.3% of consolidated revenues) for the three months ended June 30, 2002. This represents our minority partners' share of earnings in our majority-owned international subsidiaries that are consolidated in our operating results. The increase is primarily a result of the improved profitability of our European business.
Net Income
As a result of the foregoing factors, consolidated net income increased $0.1 million, or 0.7%, to $20.1 (5.6% of consolidated revenues) for the three months ended June 30, 2003 from net income of $20.0 million (6.1% of consolidated revenues) for the three months ended June 30, 2002.
35
EBITDA
As a result of the foregoing factors, consolidated EBITDA increased $8.7 million, or 9.3%, to $102.6 million (28.6% of consolidated revenues) for the three months ended June 30, 2003 from $93.9 million (28.6% of consolidated revenues) for the three months ended June 30, 2002.

Business Records Management
Revenue in our business records management segment increased 7.0% primarily due to increased storage revenues, growth of our secure shredding operations and acquisitions, and was offset by lower special project service revenue and lower permanent removal and destruction fees during 2003. In addition, favorable currency fluctuations during the three months ended June 30, 2003 in Canada increased revenue $2.2 million when compared to the three months ended June 30, 2002. Contribution as a percent of segment revenue increased primarily due to lower bad debt expense which was partially offset by higher property taxes, utilities and increased investment in our sales and account management force. Items excluded from the calculation of Contribution include the following: (1) depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended June 30, 2003 of $16.9 million compared to $16.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002, (2) foreign currency gains of $15.1 million and $9.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively.
Off-Site Data Protection
Revenue in our off-site data protection segment increased 3.5% primarily due to internal revenue growth from both existing and new customers in the face of increasing pressure in the marketplace to
36
reduce information technology related spending. Contribution as a percent of segment revenue increased primarily due to reduced bad debt expense, increased product sales margins and improved labor management. This increase was partially offset by increased investment in our sales and account management force. Items excluded from the calculation of Contribution include the following: (1) depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended June 30, 2003 of $3.4 million compared to $3.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and (2) a loss on disposal/writedown of property plant and equipment, net of $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003.
International
Revenue in our international segment increased 45.2% primarily due to increased sales efforts and a large service project in the United Kingdom, as well as, acquisitions completed in Europe and South America in the fourth quarter of 2002 and the first quarter of 2003. Favorable currency fluctuations during the three months ended June 30, 2003 in Europe increased revenue, as measured in U.S. dollars, by $3.7 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2002. This increase was offset by $0.4 million of unfavorable currency fluctuations in South America during the three months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2002. Contribution as a percent of segment revenue increased primarily due to improved gross margins from both our European and South American operations and overall increased overhead utilization. This increase was partially offset by increased rent associated with a new property in Europe. Items excluded from the calculation of Contribution include the following: (1) depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended June 30, 2003 of $2.7 million compared to $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and (2) a gain on disposal/writedown of property plant and equipment, net of $2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002.

- We believe that EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) is useful to investors because it is an important financial measure used in evaluating our performance, as EBITDA is an internally generated source of funds for investment in continued growth and for servicing indebtedness. Externally, holders of our publicly issued debt use EBITDA and EBITDA-based calculations as important criteria for evaluating us and, as a result, all of our bond indentures include EBITDA and EBITDA-based calculations as primary measures of financial performance. We have not included in EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2002 the effect of cumulative effect of change in accounting principle of $6.4 million.

Revenue
Consolidated storage revenues increased $41.4 million, or 11.2%, to $411.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. The increase was primarily attributable to internal revenue growth of 8.3% resulting from net increases in records and other media stored by existing customers, sales to new customers and acquisitions. The net effect of foreign currency translation on storage revenues was an increase in revenue of $4.3 million. This was a result of a strengthening of the British pound sterling, the Canadian dollar, and the Euro against the U.S. dollar, offset by a weakening of the Argentine peso and the Brazilian real against the U.S. dollar, based on an analysis of weighted average rates for the comparable periods.
Consolidated service and storage material sales revenues increased $24.8 million, or 9.0%, to $299.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. The increase was primarily attributable to internal revenue growth of 5.1% resulting from net increases in service and storage material sales to existing customers and sales to new customers, foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and acquisitions. The net effect of foreign currency translation on service and storage material sales revenues was an increase in revenue of $4.2 million. This was a result of a strengthening of the British pound sterling, the Canadian dollar, and the Euro against the U.S. dollar, offset by a weakening of the Argentine peso and the Brazilian real against the U.S. dollar, based on an analysis of weighted average rates for the comparable periods.
For the reasons stated above, our consolidated revenues increased $66.2 million, or 10.3%, to $711.1 million. Internal revenue growth for the six months ended June 30, 2003 was 7.0%. We calculate internal revenue growth in local currency for our international operations.

Labor
The dollar increase in labor expense is primarily attributable to increases in headcount and changes in our labor mix resulting from the expansion of our secure shredding operations. In addition, our domestic operations, which comprise approximately 75% of our workforce, experienced an overall increase in wages due to normal inflation, merit increases and increases in medical insurance expense of $0.9 million. The increase in labor expenses was substantially offset by reductions in incentive compensation expenses due to changes in our estimates of those expenses during the first quarter of 2003.
Facilities
The largest component of our facilities cost is rent expense, which decreased $3.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 primarily as a result of our consolidating 31 properties owned by our Variable Interest Entities during the third and fourth quarter of 2002. The leases associated with these properties were accounted for as operating leases prior to December 31, 2002. We recorded $5.0 million of rent expense for these 31 properties during the six months ended June 30, 2002 and no rent expense in 2003. Rather than rent expense, we recorded interest expense and depreciation expense associated with these properties for the six months ended June 30, 2003. In addition, we reduced the number of leased facilities we occupy by nine as of June 30, 2003 compared to June 30, 2002 due to our exiting less desirable facilities in connection with our rationalization of properties related to the Pierce Leahy merger. The decrease in rent is offset by increased rent in our European operations of $2.4 million primarily attributable to a new facility and properties acquired through an acquisition.
The dollar increase in facilities expenses is attributable to property taxes, utilities, and property insurance, which increased $4.1 million, $2.6 million, and $1.1 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2002.
Transportation
Our transportation expenses are influenced by several variables including total number of vehicles in our fleet, the number of owned versus leased vehicles, use of subcontracted couriers, fuel expenses, and maintenance. Operating lease expense increased $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2002, as a result of an increased percentage of vehicles within our fleet being under operating leases. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, domestic fuel expense increased $0.9 million due to an increase in the average price per gallon of fuel
41
of approximately 20% in 2003 and an increase in the size of our fleet. Our subcontracted courier fees were flat year over year due to better management of internal transportation resources. We experienced a $0.9 million increase in transportation expenses in our European operations, which is primarily attributable to the growth of operations and acquisitions.
Product Cost of Sales and Other Cost of Sales
Product and other cost of sales are highly correlated to complementary revenue streams. Product cost of sales for the six months ended June 30, 2003 was lower than the six months ended June 30, 2002 as a percentage of product revenues due to more focused selling efforts on higher margin products and improved product sourcing.

General and Administrative
The dollar increase in general and administrative expenses is primarily attributable to an increase in wages due to normal inflation and merit increases and an increase in medical expenses. We also experienced a $3.0 million increase in general and administrative expenses in our European operations, which is primarily attributable to the growth of operations and acquisitions and includes approximately $0.9 million associated with the strengthening of the British pound sterling against the U.S. dollar, based on an analysis of weighted average rates for the comparable periods. These increases were offset by decreases in professional fees and office facilities.
Sales, Marketing & Account Management
The majority of our sales, marketing and account management costs are labor related and are primarily driven by the headcount in each of these departments. Increased headcount and commissions are the most significant contributors to the increase in sales and marketing expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2003. Throughout 2002 and 2003, we continued to invest in the expansion and improvement of our sales force. We added more than 52 new sales and marketing employees since June 30, 2002, a 12% increase in headcount, increased our account management force and initiated several new marketing and promotional efforts in 2003 to develop awareness in the marketplace of our entire service offerings. The costs associated with these efforts have contributed to the increase in our sales, marketing and account management expenses.
42
Information Technology
Information technology expenses increased $6.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 principally due to higher compensation costs resulting from increased headcount and normal inflation and merit increases of $3.4 million as well as $0.8 million of additional costs primarily incurred for expanding bandwidth and international connectivity. Additionally, as our digital initiatives mature, more of our efforts are maintenance related and capitalizable expenditures are decreasing, which resulted in an increase in information technology costs of $2.7 million. These increased costs were offset by a reduction of $0.5 million realized through reduced technology equipment lease expenses.
Bad Debt Expense
The decrease in consolidated bad debt expense for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2002 is primarily attributable to the centralization of our collection efforts within our divisions.
Depreciation, Amortization, Merger-Related Expenses and (Gain) Loss on Disposal/Writedown of Property, Plant and Equipment, Net
Consolidated depreciation and amortization expense increased $9.2 million, or 17.9%, to $60.7 million (8.5% of consolidated revenues) for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from $51.5 million (8.0% of consolidated revenues) for the six months ended June 30, 2002. Depreciation expense increased $8.3 million, primarily due to the additional depreciation expense related to capital expenditures, including storage systems, which include racking, building improvements and leasehold improvements, computer systems hardware and software, and new buildings, and depreciation associated with facilities accounted for as capital leases. Depreciation associated with our digital initiatives increased $2.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2003 as a result of software and hardware assets placed in service throughout 2002. The consolidation of the properties owned by our Variable Interest Entities during 2002 resulted in $1.9 million of additional depreciation in the six months ended June 30, 2003.
Merger-related expenses are certain expenses directly related to our merger with Pierce Leahy that cannot be capitalized and included system conversion costs, costs of exiting certain facilities, severance, relocation and pay-to-stay payments and other transaction-related costs. Merger-related expenses were $0.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002. All merger related activities associated with the Pierce Leahy merger were completed in 2002.
Consolidated (gain) loss on disposal/writedown of property, plant and equipment, net consisted of $2.5 million gain on the sale of a property in Texas, offset by disposals and asset writedowns of $2.5 million in 2003 and a gain of $2.1 on the sale of a property held by one of our European subsidiaries in 2002.

IRON MOUNTAIN INCORPORATED
Interest Expense, Net
Consolidated interest expense, net increased $6.3 million, or 9.6%, to $72.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from $65.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002. This increase was primarily attributable to $6.9 million of interest expense associated with real estate term loans held by our Variable Interest Entities that were consolidated in the second half of 2002, as well as an increase in our overall weighted average outstanding borrowings. These increases were offset by a decline in our overall weighted average interest rate resulting from a general decline in interest rates coupled with our refinancing efforts.
Other Income, Net
Significant items included in other (income) expense, net include the following (in thousands):

$ | (4,956 | ) | $ | (7,982 | ) | $ | (3,026 | ) | ||
Foreign currency gains of $23.6 million based on period-end exchange rates were recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2003 primarily due to the strengthening of the Canadian dollar and British pound sterling against the U.S. dollar as these currencies relate to our intercompany balances with our Canadian and U.K. subsidiaries, U.S. dollar denominated debt held by our Canadian subsidiary and Canadian dollar borrowings under our revolving credit facility.
During the six months ended June 30, 2003, we redeemed the remaining outstanding principal amount of our 91/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2007 (the "91/8% notes") resulting in a charge of $1.8 million and the remaining outstanding principal amount of our 83/4% notes resulting in a charge of $13.8 million. The charges consisted primarily of the call and tender premiums associated with the extinguished debt and the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs. During the six months ended June 30, 2002, we recorded a charge of $1.2 million related to the early retirement of debt in conjunction with the refinancing of our credit facility. The charge consisted primarily of the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs. Effective January 1, 2003, we have reflected these charges to other (income) expense, net in accordance with recent changes in accounting pronouncements.
Provision for Income Taxes
The effective rate was 42.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and the primary reconciling item between the statutory rate of 35% and the effective rate is state income taxes (net of federal benefit). A Massachusetts tax increase, retroactive to January 1, 2002, increased the provision for income taxes for the first six months of 2003 by 1.1%. The effective rate projected for 2003 is 42.0%. The effective rate was 41.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2002. There may be future volatility with respect to our effective rate related to items including unusual unforecasted permanent items, significant changes in tax rates in foreign jurisdictions and the need for additional valuation allowances. Also, as a result of our net operating loss carryforwards, we do not expect to pay any significant federal and state income taxes during 2003.
44
Minority Interest and Cumulative Effect of Change in Accounting Principle
Minority interest in earnings of subsidiaries, net resulted in a charge to income of $2.9 million (0.4% of consolidated revenues) for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to $2.1 million (0.3% of consolidated revenues) for the six months ended June 30, 2002. This represents our minority partners' share of earnings in our majority-owned international subsidiaries that are consolidated in our operating results. The increase is primarily a result of the improved profitability of our European business.
In the first quarter of 2002, we recorded a non-cash charge for the cumulative effect of change in accounting principle of $6.4 million (net of minority interest of $8.5 million) as a result of our implementation of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets".
Net Income
As a result of the foregoing factors, consolidated net income increased $15.3 million, or 58.6%, to $41.4 (5.8% of consolidated revenues) for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from net income of $26.1 million (4.0% of consolidated revenues) for the six months ended June 30, 2002.
EBITDA
As a result of the foregoing factors, consolidated EBITDA before Extraordinary Items increased $32.8 million, or 18.8%, to $206.7 million (29.1% of consolidated revenues) for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from $173.9 million (27.0% of consolidated revenues) for the six months ended June 30, 2002.

Business Records Management
Revenue in our business records management segment increased 7.8% primarily due to increased storage revenues, growth of our secure shredding operations and acquisitions, and was offset by lower special project service revenue and lower permanent removal and destruction fees during 2003. In addition, favorable currency fluctuations during the six months ended June 30, 2003 in Canada increased revenue $3.3 million when compared to the six months ended June 30, 2002. Contribution as a percent of segment revenue increased primarily due to lower bad debt expense which was partially offset by higher property taxes, utilities and our continuing investment in our sales and account management force. Items excluded from the calculation of Contribution include the following: (1) depreciation and amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2003 of $34.6 million compared to $33.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002, (2) foreign currency gains of $25.9 million and $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively and (3) a gain on disposal/writedown of property plant and equipment, net of $1.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003.
Off-Site Data Protection
Revenue in our off-site data protection segment increased 5.2% primarily due to internal revenue growth from both existing and new customers in the face of increasing pressure in the marketplace to reduce information technology related spending. Contribution as a percent of segment revenue increased primarily due to reduced bad debt expense, increased product sales margins and improved labor management. This increase was partially offset by increased investment in our sales and account management force. Items excluded from the calculation of Contribution include the following: (1) depreciation and amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2003 of $6.6 million compared to $6.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and (2) a loss on disposal/writedown of property plant and equipment, net of $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003.
International
Revenue in our international segment increased 42.4% primarily due to increased sales efforts and a large service project in the United Kingdom, as well as, acquisitions completed in Europe and South America in the fourth quarter of 2002 and the first quarter of 2003. Favorable currency fluctuations during the six months ended June 30, 2003 in Europe increased revenue, as measured in U.S. dollars, by $6.8 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2002. This increase was offset by $1.7 million of unfavorable currency fluctuations in South America during the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2002. Contribution as a percent of segment revenue increased primarily due to improved gross margins from both our European and South American operations and overall increased overhead utilization. This increase was partially offset by increased rent associated with a new property in Europe. Items excluded from the calculation of Contribution include the following: (1) depreciation and amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2003 of $5.0 million compared to $3.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and (2) a gain on disposal/writedown of property plant and equipment, net of $2.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002.

The following is a summary of our cash balances and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2003 (in thousands).
| 2002 | 2003 | |||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Cash flows provided by operating activities | $ | 98,148 | $ | 130,657 | |||
Cash flows used in investing activities | (116,642 | ) | (129,840 | ) | |||
Cash flows provided by financing activities | 23,030 | 120,341 | |||||
Cash and cash equivalents at the end of period | $ | 26,055 | $ | 177,863 |
Net cash provided by operating activities was $130.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to $98.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002. The increase resulted primarily from an increase in operating income and by working capital variations primarily associated with increased accounts receivable collections and decreased disbursements to vendors.
We have made significant capital investments, including: (1) capital expenditures, primarily related to growth, including investments in storage systems and information systems and discretionary investments in real estate; (2) acquisitions; and (3) customer relationship and acquisition costs. Cash paid for these investments during the six months ended June 30, 2003 amounted to $106.0 million, $24.1 million (net of cash acquired) and $4.7 million, respectively. These investments have been funded primarily through cash flows from operations, borrowings under our revolving credit facilities and other financing transactions. In addition, we received proceeds from sales of property and equipment of $6.3 and $6.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2003, respectively. Excluding any potential acquisitions, we expect to invest between $190.0 million and $215.0 million on capital expenditures for the 2003 fiscal year.
Net cash provided by financing activities of $120.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 primarily related to proceeds from the issuance of our 73/4% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2015 (the "73/4 notes") and 65/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2016 (the "65/8 notes") totaling $455.6 million, offset by the early retirement of our 91/8% and 83/4% notes totaling $254.4 million and a net decrease in debt under our credit facilities and other debt of $88.0 million.
We are highly leveraged and expect to continue to be highly leveraged for the foreseeable future. Our consolidated debt as of June 30, 2003 was comprised of the following (in thousands):
Revolving Credit Facility due 2005 | $ | — | ||
Term Loan due 2008 | 249,250 | |||

Our key bond leverage ratio of indebtedness to Adjusted EBITDA, as calculated per our bond indentures, increased to 5.1 as of June 30, 2003 from 4.8 as of December 31, 2002. The increase was primarily attributable to our offering of $150 million of our 65/8% notes completed in June 2003. The proceeds of this offering were included in cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2003, since we did not complete the redemption of a portion of our Subsidiary notes and the acquisition of the information management services business of Hays plc ("Hays IMS") until July 2003. We expect this ratio to increase in the short-term due to additional borrowings under our revolving credit facility in July 2003 to finance the remaining portion of the purchase price of the Hays IMS acquisition. We expect that Iron Mountain Europe Limited ("IME"), our European joint venture, will obtain permanent financing to repay all or a portion of the funding received by us, which will ultimately have the effect of reducing this expected increase in our bond leverage ratio. Noncompliance with this leverage ratio would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and liquidity. Our target for this ratio is generally in the range of 4.5 to 5.5 while the maximum ratio allowable under the bond indentures is 6.5.
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.
As of June 30, 2003, we had no borrowings under our revolving credit facility. We had various outstanding letters of credit totaling $34.5 million. The remaining availability under the revolving credit facility was $365.5 as of June 30, 2003.
Our 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 our indentures and other agreements governing our indebtedness. As of June 30, 2003, we were in compliance in all material respects with all debt covenants.
In January 2003, we redeemed the remaining $23.2 million of outstanding principal amount of our 91/8% notes, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) of 104.563%, plus accrued and unpaid interest, with proceeds from our underwritten public offering of $100.0 million in aggregate principal of our 73/4% notes. We recorded a charge to other income, net in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations of $1.8 million in the first quarter of 2003 related to the early retirement of the remaining 91/8% notes.
In March 2003, we completed two debt exchanges, which resulted in the issuance of $31.3 million in face value of our 73/4% notes and the retirement of $30.0 million of our 83/4% notes. These non-cash debt exchanges resulted in carryover basis and, therefore, no gain (loss) on extinguishment of debt in accordance with EITF No. 96-19, "Debtor's Accounting for Modification or Exchange of Debt Instruments." These exchanges result in a lower interest rate and, therefore, lower interest expense in future periods, as well as extend the maturity of our debt obligations. From time to time, we may enter into similar exchange transactions that we deem appropriate.
In April 2003, we completed an underwritten public offering of an additional $300 million in aggregate principal amount of our 73/4% notes, which were issued at a price to investors of 104% of par, implying an effective yield to worst of 7.066%. Our net proceeds of $307.3 million, after paying the underwriters' discounts, commissions and transaction fees, were used to fund our offer to purchase and consent solicitation relating to our outstanding 83/4% notes, to otherwise redeem the 83/4% notes, and
48
for general corporate purposes, including the repayment of borrowings under our revolving credit facility, the repayment of other indebtedness and future acquisitions.
In April 2003, we received and accepted tenders for $143.3 million of the $220 million aggregate principal amount outstanding of our 83/4% notes. In May 2003, we redeemed the remaining $76.7 million of outstanding principal amount of our 83/4% notes, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) of 104.375%, plus accrued and unpaid interest. We recorded a charge to other income, net of $13.8 million in the second quarter of 2003 related to the early retirement of the 83/4% notes, which consists of redemption premiums and transaction costs, as well as original issue discount and unamortized deferred financing costs related to the 83/4% notes.
In June 2003, we completed an underwritten public offering of $150 million in aggregate principal amount of 65/8% notes. The 65/8% notes were issued at a price to investors of 100% of par. Our net proceeds of $147.5 million, after paying the underwriters' discounts, commissions and transaction fees, were used to redeem $50 million in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Subsidary notes and the remainder was used for acquisitions, both of which occurred in July 2003 after our second quarter ended.
In July 2003, we redeemed $50 million of outstanding principal amount of the Subsidiary notes, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) of 104.063%, plus accrued and unpaid interest. We will record a charge to other (income) expense, net of $5.6 million in the third quarter of 2003 related to the early retirement of these Subsidiary notes, which consists of redemption premiums and transaction costs, as well as original issue discount related to these Subsidiary notes.
In July 2003, we and IME completed the acquisition of Hays IMS in two simultaneous transactions. IME acquired the European operations of Hays IMS for aggregate cash consideration at closing of 185.5 million pounds sterling ($304.0 million), while we acquired the U.S. operations of Hays IMS for aggregate cash consideration at closing of 14.5 million pounds sterling ($24.0 million). The final purchase price is subject to post-closing adjustments. Both transactions were on a cash and debt free basis.
We provided the initial financing to IME for all of the consideration associated with the acquisition of the European operations using cash on hand and borrowings under our revolving credit facility. In order to minimize the foreign currency risk associated with providing IME with the consideration necessary for the acquisition of Hay IMS, we borrowed 80 million pounds sterling under our revolving credit agreement to create a natural hedge. Additionally, on July 16, 2003 we entered into two cross currency swaps with a combined notional value of 100 million pounds sterling. These swaps each have a term of one year and at maturity we have a right to receive $162.8 million in exchange for 100 million pounds sterling. We have not designated these swaps as hedges and will record all mark to market fluctuations of the swaps as a foreign currency gain or loss in future consolidated statements of operations. IME is currently obtaining permanent financing to repay all or a portion of the funding received from us.
We expect to meet our cash flow requirements for the next twelve months from cash generated from operations, existing cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, borrowings under our revolving credit facility and other financings, which may include secured credit facilities, securitizations and mortgage or capital lease financings.
Seasonality
Historically, our businesses have not been subject to seasonality in any material respect.
49
Inflation
Certain of our expenses, such as wages and benefits, insurance, occupancy costs and equipment repair and replacement, are subject to normal inflationary pressures. Although to date we have been able to offset inflationary cost increases through increased operating efficiencies and the negotiation of favorable long-term real estate leases, we can give no assurance that we will be able to offset any future inflationary cost increases through similar efficiencies, leases or increased storage or service charges.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Interest Rate Risk
In December 2000, January 2001 and May 2001, we and the variable interest entities, which we now consolidate, entered into a total of four derivative financial contracts, which are variable-for-fixed swaps consisting of (a) two contracts for interest payments payable on our term loan of an aggregate principal amount of $195.5 million, (b) one contract for interest payments payable (previously certain variable operating lease commitments payable) on our real estate term loans of an aggregate principal amount of $47.5 million and (c) one contract for interest payments payable on our real estate term loans of an aggregate principal amount of $97.0 million. See Note 4 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2002.
After consideration of the swap contracts mentioned above, as of June 30, 2003, we had $153.5 million of variable rate debt outstanding with a weighted average variable interest rate of 4.04%, and $1,721.8 million of fixed rate debt outstanding. 86% of our total debt outstanding is fixed. If the weighted average variable interest rate on our variable rate debt had increased by 1%, such increase would have had a negative impact on our net income for the six months ended June 30, 2003 by $0.6 million. See Note 7 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of our long-term indebtedness, including the fair values of such indebtedness as of June 30, 2003 included in this Form 10-Q.
Currency Risk
Our investments in IME, Iron Mountain South America, Ltd. and other international investments may be subject to risks and uncertainties related to fluctuations in currency valuation. Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. However, our international revenues are generated in the currencies of the countries in which we operate, primarily the Canadian dollar and British pound sterling. The currencies of many Latin American countries have experienced substantial volatility and depreciation in the past, including the Argentine peso. In addition, one of our Canadian subsidiaries, Iron Mountain Canada Corporation, has U.S. dollar denominated debt. Declines in the value of the local currencies in which we are paid relative to the U.S. dollar will cause revenues in the U.S. dollar terms to decrease and dollar-denominated liabilities to increase in local currency. We also have several intercompany obligations between our foreign subsidiaries and Iron Mountain and our U.S.-based subsidiaries. These intercompany obligations are primarily denominated in the local currency of the foreign subsidiary. Our currency exposures to intercompany borrowings are unhedged. At June 30, 2003, we did not have any outstanding foreign currency hedging contracts.
The impact of devaluation or depreciating currency on an entity depends on the residual effect on the local economy and the ability of an entity to raise prices and/or reduce expenses. Due to our constantly changing currency exposure and the potential substantial volatility of currency exchange rates, we cannot predict the effect of exchange fluctuations on our business.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of 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 required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within required time periods. As of June 30, 2003 (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 the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, the chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, such disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that required information will be disclosed on a timely basis in our reports filed under the Exchange Act.
(b) Changes in Internal Controls
We maintain a system of internal accounting controls that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that our transactions are properly recorded and reported and that our assets are safeguarded against unauthorized or improper use. As part of the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, we evaluated our internal controls. There were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting during the second fiscal quarter of 2003 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting, including any corrective actions taken with regard to any significant deficiencies or material weaknesses.
