Hedge Fund Stock Pitch Format

When pitching a stock during a hedge fund interview/sending a pitch to an employee of a fund, is it standard practice to format it like an ER report, or is there a different standard (perhaps PPT-style and less wordy, like a school stock pitch). Also, what is the typical length. Sorry if this is a dumb question
