Iron Mountain Is Running Hot Daniel Jones Investing Group Leader Summary Iron Mountain Incorporated has surged 42.8% YTD, far outpacing the S&P 500, driven by robust revenue and cash flow growth. IRM’s rapid expansion in data centers and asset lifecycle management, alongside 37 consecutive years of organic revenue growth, underpins its operational strength. Management guides for 2026 revenue of $7.94–$8.01B, EBITDA of $2.945–$2.975B, and adjusted FFO of $1.76–$1.78B. Despite strong fundamentals, IRM stock’s valuation is now considered expensive; I maintain a neutral stance, with a potential downgrade to Sell if shares rise another 10%.
