IB Case study interview - resources/examples/help?

Have an IB SA interview coming up - case study oriented.

got the following briefing:

- The case study centres around reviewing a specific listed company based on a public info pack (financial statements, company publications, analyst research, etc) and presenting views to a senior banker on the state of the business, key issues and summarizing potential strategic and financial considerations.

- 90 minutes to review the company and prepare a short presentation on PPT, followed by a 30 minute presentation (incl. Q&A)

Do you think they expect me to create excel models etc? What is the best way to prepare, and where can i find examples/resources of this sort of thing, for PIB case studies.

Any insight from bankers/students would be super helpful, thanks!
