Compass Point reiterates a 'Buy' on Associated Estates Realty (NYSE: AEC) price target lowered to $18.00.
Analyst, Wilkes Graham, said, "AEC priced a 6.3M share equity raise on 6/22/12, netting aggregate proceeds of 87.4M. To reflect the offering and AEC's updated disclosure of recent activities, we are lowering our 2012 and 2013 FFO estimates to $1.23 and $1.36, respectively, and lowering our price target...AEC's recent activity reflects the Company's commitment to achieving an investment grade rating through the sale of non-core assets and acquisitions and developments in more attractive rental markets."
Graham thinks the recent moves will create a negative spread near-term, but believes the prices were fair and remains optimistic in the company's ability to enter and operate in new markets.
