UBS maintains a 'Neutral' on TC Pipelines (NYSE: TCP) price target lowered from $46 to $43.

Analyst, Ronald J. Barone, said, "TCP EPU fell short of UBSe and consensus, and well short of year-ago results, as the benefit garnered from the 25% interests TCP acquired in the GTN and Bison pipelines in May 2011 (i.e., not in year-ago numbers) was not enough to overcome weakness elsewhere. This weakness was most pronounced in the Great Lakes Pipeline (~27% of 2011 equity income),
where 28% of long-haul capacity went unsold, largely due to continued challenging nat gas market conditions."

UBS lowers FY12 EPS estimate from $2.89 to $2.70 and FY13 from $2.90 to $2.73.
