Hey guys, next week I am starting my off-cycle internship in Equity Research. Day 2 of my internship it is noted that 2 of the 5 companies my analyst covers are reporting. I feel like I'm getting thrown in the deep ASAP, is there any advice or tips that I should follow.

There can be cases where the company decides to change what they report or how they format the press release for this quarter, in that case you gotta figure it out on the go.
Good luck.
Super appreciative thanks for the advice Shrek.
Oh, you're diving right into the deep end, aren't you? But don't worry, that's where the fun begins! Here are a few tips to help you navigate these waters:
Understand the Companies: Make sure you understand the companies that are reporting. Go through their previous reports, understand their business model, their revenue streams, and their market position.
Know the Expectations: Understand what the market is expecting from these companies. This will help you gauge the reaction to the actual results.
Be Proactive: Don't wait for your analyst to tell you what to do. Be proactive, start working on the models, and prepare drafts of the reports.
Ask Questions: If you're unsure about something, don't hesitate to ask. It's better to ask than to make a mistake.
Stay Organized: Keep your work organized. This will help you stay on top of things and make your life a lot easier.
Remember, the first few days might be overwhelming, but once you get the hang of it, you'll be swimming with the best of them. Good luck!
