                           MAS Acquisition XLII Corp.
                      (A Development Stage Company)
                  Notes to Unaudited Financial Statements
                            September 30, 2001

(1) Basis Of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles  ("GAAP") for interim
financial information and Item 310(b) of Regulation SB.  They do not include
all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial
statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of
normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation
have been included.  The results of operations for the periods presented are
not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
For further information, refer to the financial statements of the Company as
of December 31, 2000 and for the two years then ended and the period from
inception (January 6, 1997) to December 31, 2000, including notes thereto
included in the Company's Form 10-SB.

(2) Earnings Per Share

The Company calculates net income (loss) per share as required by SFAS No.
128, "Earnings per Share." Basic earnings (loss) per share are calculated by
dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share are calculated
by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares
and dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding. During the periods when
they are anti dilutive common stock equivalents, if any, are not considered in
the computation.

(3) Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes may arise from temporary differences resulting from
income and expense items reported for financial accounting and tax purposes in
different periods. Deferred taxes are classified as current or non-current,
depending on the classifications of the assets and liabilities to which they
relate. Deferred taxes arising from temporary differences that are not related
to an asset or liability are classified as current or non-current depending on
the periods in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse. The
deferred tax asset related to the operating loss carryforward has been fully
reserved.

The Company's net operating loss carryforwards expire through 2021.

(4) Stockholders' Equity

On March 26, 2001 the Company affected a 1 for 825 reverse split of its $.001
par value common stock. All share and per share amounts have been
retroactively restated to reflect this split. The Company's majority
shareholder repurchased all fractional shares for $5 making it the sole
shareholder of the Company.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF
         OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITIONS.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the information
contained in the financial statements of the Company and the Notes thereto
appearing elsewhere herein.

Results of Operations - Inception (January 6, 1997) through September 30,
2001.

The Company is considered to be in the development stage as defined in
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 7. There have been no
operations since inception.

Liquidity and Capital Resources.

The Company has no cash as of September 30, 2001.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

In connection with the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the "Reform Act"), the Company is hereby
providing cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause
the Company's actual results to differ materially from those projected in
forward-looking statements (as such term is defined in the Reform Act) made by
or on behalf of the Company herein or orally, whether in presentations, in
response to questions or otherwise.  Any statements that express, or involve
discussions as to expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions or
future events or performance (often, but not always, through the use of words
or phrases such as "will result", "are expected to", "will continue", "is
anticipated", "estimated", "projection" and "outlook") are not historical
facts and may be forward-looking and, accordingly, such statements involve
estimates, assumptions, and uncertainties which could cause actual results to
differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements.
Such uncertainties include, among other, the following:  (i) the Company's
ability to obtain additional financing to implement its business strategy;
(ii) the financial condition of the Company's clients;  (iii) imposition of
new regulatory requirements affecting the Company;  (iv) a downturn in general
economic conditions (v) the delay or failure to properly manage growth and
successfully integrate acquired companies and operations;  (vi) lack of
geographic diversification;  and (vii) other factors which are described in
further detail in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.

The Company cautions that actual results or outcomes could differ materially
from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of
the Company.  Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on
which such statement is made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to
update any forward-looking statement or statements to reflect events or
circumstances after the date on which such statement is made or to reflect the
occurrence of unanticipated events.  New factors emerge from time to time, and
it is not possible for management to predict all of such factors.  Further,
management cannot assess the impact of each such factor on the business or the
extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual
results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking
statements.
                                                                        7
