S&P upgrades UDR

Standard & Poor’s said it raised the rating on UDR Inc. to BBB+ from BBB, along with the rating on its senior unsecured notes to BBB+ from BBB.

The outlook is stable.

The upgrades reflect an improvement in UDR’s competitive position based upon its large and relatively diverse portfolio of apartment properties with above-average asset quality, S&P said.

Credit metrics are expected to continue to strengthen, the agency added.

As of March 31, the company’s debt-to-EBITDA was 6.9x and this ratio is expected to decline further as EBITDA strengthens, S&P said.
