          To  the extent that the information presented in this Quarterly Report
on  Form  10-QSB  for  the  quarter ended September 30, 2001 discusses financial
projections,  information  or  expectations  about  our  products or markets, or
otherwise  makes  statements  about  future  events,  such  statements  are

the  safe  harbor  provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995.  Although  we  believe  that  the  expectations  reflected  in  these

number  of  risks  and  uncertainties  that could cause actual results to differ
materially  from  such forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties
are  described,  among  other  places in this Quarterly Report, in "Management's
Discussion  and  Analysis  of  Financial  Condition  and Results of Operations".

          In addition, we disclaim any obligations to update any forward-looking

                               VERTICALBUYER, INC.
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                           SEPTEMBER 30, 2001 AND 2000

NOTE  1  -  BASIS  OF  PRESENTATION
-----------------------------------

The  accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in  accordance  with  generally  accepted  accounting  principles  for  interim
financial  statements  and with the instructions to Form 10 - QSB and Article 10
of  Regulation  S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all the information and
disclosures  required  for  annual  financial  statements.

In  the  opinion  of  the  Company's  management, all adjustments (consisting of
normal  recurring  accruals) necessary to present fairly the Company's financial
position  as  of  September  30,  2001  are  included.

The  results  of  operations for the three month period ended September 30, 2001
are  not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

NOTE  2  -  SUMMARY  OF  SIGNIFICANT  ACCOUNTING  POLICIES
----------------------------------------------------------

Vertical  Buyer,  ("the  Company")  a  Delaware corporation, was incorporated on
September  24,  1999 and on March 1, 2000 issued 14,250,000 shares of its common
stock  to  the  shareholders  of  Lightseek  Limited  in exchange for all of the
outstanding  common  stock of Lightseek Limited. On February 15, 2001, Lightseek
Limited  acquired  all  of  the  outstanding common stock of Litech Limited. The
acquisition  of  Litech  has  been accounted for under the purchase method, and,
accordingly,  Litech's  operations  have  been  included  in  the  Company's
consolidated  financial  statements  from  its date of acquisition. Lightseek is
principally  engaged  in  the  development of Internet sites designed to exploit
Business-to-Business  e-commerce  opportunities  within  the  global  commercial
electrical  and  lighting  markets.  Litech  is  a  specialist  designer  and
manufacturer  of  fiber  optic  lighting  applications  for  the  entertainment,
commercial  and  retail markets.  In September 2001 the Company discontinued the
operations  of  both  Lightseek  Limited  and  Litech  Limited.

Use  of  estimates
------------------

The  preparation  of  financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect  the  reported  amounts  of  assets  and  liabilities  at the date of the
financial  statements  and  the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the  reporting  period.  Actual  results  could  differ  from  those  estimates.

Cash  and  cash  equivalents
----------------------------

The Company considers all highly liquid short-term investments, with a remaining
maturity  of  three  months  or  less  when  purchased,  to be cash equivalents.

Principles  of  Consolidation
-----------------------------

The  consolidated  financial  statements  of  the  Company  include those of the
Company  and  of  each  of  its  subsidiaries  for  the  periods  in  which  the
subsidiaries  were  owned/held  by  the  Company.  All  significant intercompany
accounts  and  transactions  have  been  eliminated  in  the  preparation of the
consolidated  financial  statements.

Stock  Options
--------------

Statement  of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148 "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation-Transition and Disclosure, an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 123,"
amends  the  disclosure  requirements  of  Statement  of  Financial  Accounting
Standards  No.  123,  "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS 123"), to
require  more  prominent  disclosures  in  both  annual  and  interim  financial
statements  regarding  the  method  of  accounting  for  stock-based  employee
compensation  and  the  effect  of  the  method  used  on  reported  results.

The  Company  accounts  for  stock-based compensation to employees and directors
using  the  intrinsic  value method of accounting as prescribed under Accounting
Principles  Board  Opinion  (APB)  No.  25,  "Accounting  for  Stock  Issued  to
Employees"  and  related  Interpretations.  Under  the  intrinsic  value method,
because  the  exercise  price of the Company's employee stock options equals the
market  price  of the underlying stock on the date of the grant, no compensation
expense  is  recognized  in  the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations

Loss  per  share
----------------

Loss  per  share  has been determined based on the Company's net loss divided by
the  weighted  average number of common shares outstanding. Warrants and options
to  purchase  4,470,000  shares of common stock were outstanding at December 31,
2001, but were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share because
the  effect  of  their  inclusion  would  be  antidilutive.

Foreign  currency
-----------------

The  assets  and liabilities of the foreign subsidiary are translated at current
exchange rates and their related revenues and expenses at average exchange rates
in effect during the period.  Resulting translation adjustments, are recorded as
a separate component of stockholders' deficit while foreign currency transaction
gains  and  losses  are  included  in  operations.

Income  taxes
-------------

Deferred  income  taxes  are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax
assets  are  established  for the difference between the financial reporting and
income  tax  basis  of  assets.  Deferred  tax assets are reduced by a valuation
allowance  when,  in  the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that
some  portion  or  all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. Deferred tax
assets  and  liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and
rates  on  the  date  of  enactment.

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

Overview

     VerticalBuyer,  ("the Company") a Delaware corporation, was incorporated on
September  24,  1999 and on March 1, 2000 issued 14,250,000 shares of its common
stock  to  the  shareholders  of  Lightseek  Limited  in exchange for all of the
outstanding  common  stock of Lightseek Limited. On February 15, 2001, Lightseek
Limited  acquired  all  of  the  outstanding  common  stock  of  Litech Limited.
Lightseek  was principally engaged in the development of Internet sites designed
to  exploit  Business-to-Business  e-commerce  opportunities  within  the global
commercial electrical and lighting markets. Litech was a specialist designer and
manufacturer  of  fiber  optic  lighting  applications  for  the  entertainment,
commercial  and  retail markets. In September 2001, the Company discontinued the
operations  of  both  Lightseek  Limited  and  Litech  Limited.

     VerticalBuyer  is  seeking  to specialize in the creation of Internet based
news  sites  dedicated  to  specific industries. Lightseek was our first website
developed  for  the  commercial  lighting industry. Subsequently, other lighting
sites  were  also  tested,  including  an  auction  site  for the global market.
Following  a  consolidation  of  these sites, we are currently evaluating how to
re-launch  Lightseek,  which  we believe is the brand-name that has the greatest
franchise  in  the  market.  This evaluation of strategy will require no capital
commitment  by  the  Company  and  the  Company will continue to have no payroll
obligations.

     We  will  require additional funding for working capital in order to resume
operations.  Such  financing  is expected to be through the sale of common stock
and  or  debt issuances. However, we do not have any commitment from any sources
to  raise  this capital. If management is unable to generate external financing,
we  will  not  be  able  to  proceed  with  our  business  plan, and accordingly
operations will not resume. As of September 30, 2001, we had no cash, no assets,
no  revenue,  and  no  operations.

Results  of  Operations

     Nine  Months  Ended  September  30,  2001  Compared  to  Nine  Months Ended
September  30,  2000.

     Revenue  was  zero for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and for the
nine  months  ended  September  30,  2000.

     Selling,  general  and  administrative expenses were $305,439 for the nine
months  ended  September  30,  2001  as compared to $598,018 for the nine months
ended  September  30,  2000.  This  decrease  was  a  result of reduced business
activity.

     Net  losses  were  $944,778 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 as
compared  to  $1,031,196  for  the  nine  months  ended September 30, 2000. This
decrease  in  losses  was  a  result  of  reduced  business  activity.

ITEM  3.   CONTROLS  AND  PROCEDURES

     Our  principal  executive officer and principal financial officer evaluated
the  effectiveness  of  the  Company's  disclosure  controls  and procedures (as
defined  in  Rules  13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934,  as  amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on
this  evaluation,  the  Company's  principal  executive  officer  and  principal
financial  officer  has concluded that the Company's controls and procedures are
effective  in providing reasonable assurance that the information required to be
disclosed  in  this report has been recorded, processed, summarized and reported
as of the end of the period covered by this report. During the period covered by
this  report,  there  have  not  been  any  significant  changes in our internal
controls  or,  to my knowledge, in other factors that could significantly affect
our  internal  controls.
