UBS reiterates a 'Buy' on The Macerich Company (NYSE: MAC) price target raised from $55 to $60.

UBS analyst says, "We expect solid fundamental growth to continue into 2012 for MAC’s Class A/B+ mall portfolio, driven by incremental gains in pricing power and modest occupancy upside. We favor a strategy of using access to low-cost debt capital to prepay, fix, and term out variable rate debt coming due in ‘13, as well as the continued upgrade of portfolio quality through acquisitions and ramp in re/development."

UBS raises FY12 EPS estimate from $3.18 to $3.42, but lowers FY13 from $3.40 to $3.30.
