Iron Mountain Q3 2026: Data Center segment revenue surges 34% YoY, driving consolidated revenue to $1.99B as AI-fueled leasing momentum accelerates

Iron Mountain's Global Data Center Business delivered 34% segment revenue growth in Q3 2026 and 39.6% for the nine-month period, with Adjusted EBITDA margin expanding 160 basis points to 53.6% — the clearest signal that AI-driven lease commencements and improved pricing are compounding into structural margin expansion. Consolidated revenue reached $1.99 billion in Q3 2026 versus $1.75 billion in Q3 2025, with organic growth of 12.8% in the quarter and 15.6% year-to-date, supported by both RIM revenue management and ALM business expansion. Capital deployment remains heavily skewed toward data center construction at $1.34 billion of the $1.59 billion total growth capex spent in the nine months, with full-year capex guidance of approximately $2.2 billion signaling no deceleration in infrastructure investment.
