Nomura Securities Buy Equinix (NASDAQ: EQIX) price target of $235.00 (from $210.00) following the REIT conversion update.

Analyst Mike McCormack, comments, "We believe the conversion to REIT status highlights further upside to Equinix shares. We are raising our target price from $210 to $235, representing 17x our 2013 AFFO estimate of $13.75 and supported by our DCF analysis. Equinix currently trades at ~13.5x our 2013 AFFO estimate, a discount to peer data center companies that have already elected REIT status in the 17x range."
