FBR Capital maintains a 'Market Perform' on Universal Technologies (NYSE: UTX), raises PT to $90.

FBR analyst says, "United Technologies delivered solid headline 1Q operating EPS of $1.11 well above FBR/consensus of $1.06 with revenues ahead of our estimate in four of the company’s six segments. Key positives included (1) solid organic revenues +9% versus our 5.0% assumption and a solid pickup from 5.8% in 4Q10; (2) robust performance at Carrier, where revenues exceeded our expectations by 11% driven by better trends in U.S. residential (partly dealer restocking) and solid growth at Transicold; (3) continued impressive growth in commercial aero aftermarket with spares orders up 33%/23% at PW/HS; and (4) about 25% YOY increase in orders for North America OTIS new equipment as nonresidential construction shows some signs of life."
