  In 2010, revenues inched up by 3.78% to $3.12 billion, but GAAP EPS fell into negative territory to -$0.27. However, the profit margin improved to 59.90% from 57.82%. With a net margin of -1.6%, IRM is less profitable than the Commercial Services & Supplies industry median. The next earnings release is on April 25. For Q1 2011, analysts estimate IRM will earn $0.27 per share, an increase of 116.43% over the prior year first quarter results. For the first quarter 2011, analysts estimate IRM will generate revenues of $790.3 million, an increase of 1.77% over the prior year first quarter results. IRM shares trade well above our fair value estimates, and it should be near trading no more than $30 per share. Also, the company will continue to be hurt by the lackadaisical global economy.
