Learn the business model (revenue streams, revenue and cost drivers, etc.) and industry they are in. Look at research reports and see what the general market view is on their (and industry) performance. Go through google news to see if there have been any material events (like c-levels leaving, scandals, etc.)

This should be enough to get a foundation and impress your MD by showing that you have done your (basic) HW.
