Is it risky to sell options on IRON MOUNTAIN INC (IRM) right now?

IRON MOUNTAIN INC (IRM) currently scores 70 out of 100 for options catalyst risk (HIGH) over a 4-week expiry window. The contributing signals are an upcoming earnings report, 11 recent news items, 10 active legal filings and 3 recent SEC events within the 4-week window. On TickerRisk's scale 70 and above is HIGH, so a known event is scheduled inside this window — selling premium on IRM here is a bet on that event rather than on time decay. The score measures scheduled event exposure, not which way the stock will move.

IRM shows an IV Rank of 43, near the low end of its one-year range — options are relatively cheap, which favours option buyers over sellers, with a current implied volatility of about 35%. Read IV Rank alongside the catalyst score: it says how expensive IRM options are, while the score says whether that price is justified by a scheduled event.

IRM reports on 2026-11-04. Any expiry beyond that date carries the gap, and the implied volatility priced in beforehand typically collapses the morning after.

IRON MOUNTAIN INC (IRM) current implied volatility and IV Rank

IRM's IV Rank stands at 43 right now with implied volatility around 35%, alongside a TickerRisk options-risk score of 70/100. IRM's options are priced near the middle of their own yearly range — unremarkable volatility, so the trade has to stand on its own thesis rather than on rich or cheap premium.

For what this number does and does not tell you about IRM's options, see IV Rank explained.

IRON MOUNTAIN INC (IRM) next earnings date — 2026-11-04

IRON MOUNTAIN INC (IRM) reports earnings on 2026-11-04 — about 59 days away, which falls inside a typical options expiry window. IRM's IV Rank is currently 43. Earnings are the single biggest scheduled catalyst for an overnight gap: implied volatility usually runs up into the report and collapses immediately after (the IV crush). Selling premium into the event captures that crush but exposes you to the gap; buying premium needs a move large enough to beat the elevated IV you paid.
