The Company conducts its coal (energy) operations in China. The coal (energy) operations operated in Yunnan province, southwest China, consists of the KMC coal wholesale business, and interest in 2 coal mines (DaPuAn Mine and SuTsong Mine, provisional name L&L Coal Partners, “2 Mines”) operations acquired with effective date on May 1, 2008.

  Disposal of air compressor Operation:

6


On January 23, 2009, the Company entered into an agreement to dispose off the LEK air compressor joint venture, thus the air compressor operations become a discontinued operation of the Company and the air compressor’s income (net) was reported separately on the Consolidated Statements of Income for the three months and nine months ended on January 31, 2009, and January 31, 2008. According to the terms of the agreement, L&L is to return all the shares it owned in LEK to the minority shareholders of LEK; and the minority shareholders of LEK is to return all the shares it owned in L&L to L&L. Accordingly the Company received 1,708,283 L&L common shares valued at $4,168,211while the Company returned 1,517,057 shares and hold 191,226 shares or 9% of shares as remaining interest in LEK. As part of disposal LEK agreed to distribute all post acquisition earnings of LEK to L&L for the period from December 2004 to January 2009 (up to the date of disposal). As a result of disposal, the Company recognized a net income from discontinued operation of $76,082 and $145,220 for the three and nine periods ended January 31, 2009 and disposal loss of $382,961for the three and nine month periods ended January 31, 2009 (Note # 19).

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The interim financial information - The consolidated interim financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The results of operations for the nine month period ended January 31, 2009 may not necessarily indicative of the results of operations which might be expected for the entire year.

These statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained therein. It is suggested that these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's audited financial statements on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2008.

Principles of Consolidation – The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, and its 100% ownership of KMC subsidiary, and 60% of operations of L&L Coal Partners, “2 Mines”. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions are eliminated.

Business Segment – For the current quarter ended January 31, 2009, the Company has one reportable business segment: coal (energy). Sales of the Company are mainly generated from its coal (energy) operations, which represented 89% of the Company’s total consolidated income.

Revenue Recognition – The Company’s revenue recognition policies are in compliance with Staff accounting bulletin 104, which stipulates recognition of revenue when a formal arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is completed, no other significant obligations of the Company exist and collectibility is reasonably assured. Payments received before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are satisfied are recorded as advances from customers.

Costs of Good Sold – For coal (energy) sales, cost of good sold includes mainly coal excavation and mining related costs. For air compressor, it consists of direct material cost, direct labor costs and related overhead costs associated with such product manufacturing.

Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Based on the past experience, these estimates are reasonably accurate, have not been changed, and these estimates are reasonably not likely to be changed in the future. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

New accounting pronouncements

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements”. This Statement amends ARB 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the non-controlling (minority) interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. It clarifies that a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements. SFAS No. 160 is effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning October 1, 2009. Management is currently evaluating the effect of this pronouncement on its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations”. This Statement replaces SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations. This Statement retains the fundamental requirements in Statement 141 that the acquisition method of accounting (which Statement 141 called the purchase method) be used for all business combinations and for an acquirer to be identified for each business combination. This Statement also establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer: a) recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquire; b) recognizes and measures the goodwill acquired in the business combination or a gain from a bargain purchase; and, c) determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS No. 141(R) will apply prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after Company’s fiscal year beginning October 1, 2009. While the Company has not yet evaluated this statement for the impact, if any, that SFAS No. 141(R) will have on its consolidated financial statements, the Company will be required to expense costs related to any acquisitions after September 30, 2009.

In March, 2008, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”. The new standard is intended to improve financial reporting about derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. It is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. The new standard also improves transparency about the location and amounts of derivative instruments in an entity’s financial statements; how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under Statement 133; and how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect its financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. FASB Statement No. 161 achieves these improvements by requiring disclosure of the fair values of derivative instruments and their gains and losses in a tabular format. It also provides more information about an entity’s liquidity by requiring disclosure of derivative features that are credit risk–related. Finally, it requires cross-referencing within footnotes to enable financial statement users to locate important. Based on current conditions, the Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 161 to have a significant impact on its results of operations or financial position.

In May 2008, FASB issued SFASB No.162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”. The pronouncement mandates the GAAP hierarchy reside in the accounting literature as opposed to the audit literature. This has the practical impact of elevating FASB Statements of Financial Accounting Concepts in the GAAP hierarchy. This pronouncement will become effective 60 days following SEC approval. The Company does not believe this pronouncement will impact its financial statements.

In May 2008, FASB issued SFASB No. 163, “Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance Contracts-an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 60”. The scope of the statement is limited to financial guarantee insurance (and reinsurance) contracts. The pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2008. The Company does not believe this pronouncement will impact its financial statements.

NOTE 3. BUSINESS CONBINATION

The Company owns majority equity controlling interest of the DaPuAn Coal Mine and SuTsong Mine under the provisional name of L&L Coal (the “2 Mines”, or “L&L Coal”). The 2 Mines were acquired through acquisition of L&L Coal, “2 Mines” during the nine month ended January 31, 2009.

Plan of Operations

As China does not substantial petroleum or natural gas reserves, different from that of the US, 71% of China energy is relying on coal. As China economy continues coal grow at high speed, supply of coal cannot meet the demand, thus drives coal prices upward in the recent years. This continuing demand of coal provides a leading, competitive edge for L&L energy operations, which is based on the coal rich region of Yunnan Province in the southwestern area of China. Yunnan’s strong infrastructure demands large quantities of steel, coke, and coal supplies in the next 3 years. As a result, the Company plans to expand its energy business via M&A existing operation to following government’s oligopoly policy that is to aim to eliminate many small inefficient coal mines, to increase operational efficiency and safety standards. The Company has entered 3 MOUs to acquire other energy related entities in Yunnan Province in July of 2008, following its policy to continuously acquire and expand other profitable energy entities in China and other parts of the world. Due to the unexpected Wall Street financial crisis, happened in the summer of 2008, the US liquidity is dried up which resulting a delay of the Company funding process. It is the Company’s plan to focus on funding while upgrading its team by inviting additional qualified professionals to help growth. L&L is a US company, public listed in the US OTC-BB market since 8/4/2008. L&L is known to have organizational skills and visions to upgrade the coal mining standards, which most of the local small China miners do not have. L&L has recruited an American mining executive, and is investing its time and resource to develop strategic relationship with large Japanese coal trading firms, not only to learn the high standards of Japan coal operations but also to take advantage of price differences between the higher international coal markets, and lower China domestic markets, following the Company international operational policy. The Company seeks institutions capital funding to increase its business competitive advantages and to fund acquisitions.

Results of Operations

1) During the current quarter ended on January 31, 2009, the Company sales increased of approx. 80% to $9,989,470 as compared to $5,545,237 for the same period in 2008. This sales increase was mainly due to L&L Coal sales, KMC sales increase of coal operations incurred during the current quarter. As of January 31, 2009, coal sales represent approx. 100% of L&L total sales, increased from approx. 69% from the same period ended on January 31, 2008. Please note the renevue of $9,989,470 is only representing the coal income. It did not include the LEK revenue of $1,175,834 per US GAAP. See Note #19, Discontinued Operation, for the reporting of LEK revenue earnned by L&L for the current and prior periods.

2) As of January 31, 2009, the Company controls 100% of KMC operations, and 60% of L&L Coal operations. The Company's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with the US generally accepted accounting principles (US GAAP), had removed minority interests from the profit belonging to the minority shareholders of L&L Coal, 40% respectively, from the Company’s net profit. Consequently, the Company consolidated results of operations appear to have a much lower profit margin than had the Company could reflect the entire operation profit as its bottom line. To reflect its true results of operation and improve its profit, the Company intents to acquire the entire equity of L&L Coal form the existing minority shareholders, when it is feasible to do so.

Total Revenue:

The Company recorded revenue of $9,989,470 for the quarter ended January 31, 2009 generated from the coal operations, excluding the revenue of $1,175,834 which is reported on Note # 19. The coal related revenue was $5,545,237 for the same period in 2008. The increase of $4,444,233 (or of 80%) for the quarter ended January 31, 2009 was a result of L&L Coal and KMC operation which contributed approx. $6.8 million and $3.1 million of sales respectively in the current period. See Sales Segment Analysis details.

Total Operating expenses:

Total operating expense of $1,344,669 incurred in the period ended January 31, 2009, representing an increase of $1,284,416 (or 2,131%) as compared to $60,253 for the same period in 2008. The increase of total operating expenses is mainly due to the acquisition of L&L Coal operations.

Interest expenses:

Interest expenses of $344,739 for the period ended January 31, 2009, representing an increase of $342,661 (or 16,489%) from $2,078 for the same period in 2008. The increase reflected increasing bank loans of L&L Coal subsidiary during the quarter, reflecting sales activities increase.

17


Minority Interest:

Minority interest for the period ended January 31, 2009 is $1,584,359, representing an increase of $1,584,359 (or 100%) as there is no minority interest for the same period in 2008. The increase of minority interest is due to the acquisition of L&L Coal.

Net Income:

Income increased by $1,376,403 (or 211%) to $2,029,323 during the current quarter, comparing to net income of $652,920 for the same period of 2008, as a result of L&L Coal sales and KMC coal sales increase during the current period. The Net Income could have been higher by $306,879, due to loss of the discontinued LEK air compressor operations incurred in the current quarter ended 1/31/2009.

Change in Liquidity and Capital Resources:

The following factors affected the Company’s liquidity status and capital resources:

Operating activities: Net cash provided by operating activities was $14,793,378 during the current period January 31, 2009. While in the same of period in 2008, the net cash used by operating activities was $1,382,736. By comparing these 2 periods, it shows an increment of cash provided by operating activities of $16,176,114 (or 1,170%). The increment was mainly due to the combined effect of an increase of the current period operating profit of L&L Coal and KMC operations by $6,279,522, increase of minority interest by $5,275,179, increase of accounts payable by $6,813,859, increase of lone-term payable by $3,000,000; and decrease of account receivable of $13,775,832, and decrease of prepaid and other assets of $8,024,579. The Company's operating cash flow is highly dependent upon its ability to bill the L&L Coal and KMC sales and collect these billings in a timely manner.

Investing activities: Net Cash used in investing activities was $3,406,682 during the current period ended January 31, 2009, while $50,279 was used during the same period in 2008. The increase of net cash used of $3,356,406 (or 6,676%) was due to the purchase of property and equipment, and purchase of intangible assets.

Financing activities: Net cash used in financing activities was $4,704,896 during the current period ended January 31, 2009, while $2,356,923 was generated during the same period in 2008. It shows a decrease of 7,061,819 (or 300%), which was mainly due to cash used by discontinued operation of LEK.

The current assets of the Company were $41,688,213 and $25,393,791 for the current period ended on January 31, 2009, and for the same period in 2008, respectively. The increase in current assets of $16,294,422 (or 64%) was primarily due to the increase of account receivable of $10,451,952, increase of cash of $7,251,609, increase of other receivable of $5,671,233, and increase of prepayment of $1,435,692.

The current liabilities were $15,765,518 and $9,409,666 for the current period ended on January 31, 2009 and for the same period in 2008 respectively. The decrease of the current liabilities by $6,355,852 (or 68%) was primarily due to the disposal of LEK.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements:

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet financing arrangements.

The Company's current ratio (current assets divided by current liabilities, a ratio used to determine the Company's ability to pay its short-term liabilities) is 2.64 as of January 31, 2009 compared to 1.80 in the same period ended on January 31, 2008. As a general rule, the higher the current ratio, the more likely the Company will be able to pay its short-term bills.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The company prepares its Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. In doing so, the company has to make estimates and assumptions based on the U. S. generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”). Many of our estimates and assumptions involved in the application of GAAP may have a material impact on reported financial condition, and operation performance and on the comparability of such reported information

18


over different reporting periods. The nature of the estimates or assumptions is material due to the levels of subjectivity and judgment, necessary to account for highly uncertain matters of the susceptibility of such matters to changes; and the impact of the estimates and assumptions on financial condition or operation performance may be material. The reason the uncertainties involved in may be that there is an uncertainty attached to the estimated or assumption, or it just may be difficult to measure or value.

As the assumptions for specific sensitivity may change as a result of other possible outcome, that these estimates/assumptions may changed in the future and may affect our reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, as well as disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.

The Company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

(i)      pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;
 
(ii)      provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and
 
(iii)      provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
 

The following accounts my require estimates in computing the balances:

Revenue Recognition - The Company's revenue recognition policies are in compliance with Staff accounting bulletin when a formal arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is completed, no other significant obligations of the Company exist and collectibility is reasonably assured. Payments received before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are satisfied are recorded as advances from customers.

Accounts receivable - Majority of the Company's accounts receivable is due from its customers in China. The Company determines any required allowance, by considering a number of factors including length of time trade accounts receivable are past due and the Company's previous loss history. The Company writes off accounts receivable when they become uncollectible. When payments subsequently received on such receivables, they are credited to the allowance for doubtful accounts.

Inventories - Inventories comprise finished goods and work–in-progress and are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost, calculated on the first-in, first-out basis, comprises materials, direct labor and an appropriate proportion of all production overhead expenditure. Net realizable value is determined on the basis of anticipated sales proceeds less estimated selling expenses

Property and Equipment - Property and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is recorded on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from 3 to 10 years.

Not recording value of coal reserves - On a conservative basis, the Company does not record value of 2 Mines' coal reserves which the Company has an exclusive right to excavate for commercial purposes and on a long term basis, evidenced by the exclusive government 2 mining licenses of the 2 Mines.

Income taxes - The Company provides for income taxes based on the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, which, among other things, requires that recognition of deferred income taxes be measured by the provisions of enacted tax laws in effect at the date of financial statements. Its income from overseas controlled subsidiaries is not subject to the United States federal income taxes, as income not repatriated to the US is subject to the IRS code.

Financial Instruments - Financial instruments consist primarily of cash, accounts receivables, related party receivables, investments in equity securities and obligations under a bank credit facility. The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable and the credit facility approximate fair value due to the short maturity of those instruments. The carrying value of the related party receivables is estimated on the basis of arms’ length transactions.

19


Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Based on the past experience, these estimates are reasonably accurate, may have not been changed, and it is our best belief that these estimates are reasonably not likely to be changed in the future under the current circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Stock-Based Compensation - The Company issued warrants to compensate directors and executive in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion (“APB”) No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and provides the pro forma net earnings and pro forma earnings per share disclosures for employee stock warrants granted, as if the fair-value-based method defined in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, had been applied. In accordance with APB No. 25, compensation expense is recorded on the date a warrant is granted only if the current market price of the underlying stock exceeds the exercise price. The Company has issued 2 types of warrants (Class D, and Class E). As of April 30, 2005, no options have been granted.

The Company from time-to-time may grant restricted stock to employees and executives to award their services. Compensation cost if any, is to be charged as expenses on the grant date.

The Company follows SFAS 123R and Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 96-18 Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling Goods or Services. Under SFAS 123R, stock compensation is based on the fair value of such instruments. The Company made additional disclosure on Note 21: Employee Stock Option Plan.

a) Pro Forma Net Income and Earning Per Share:

Under SFAS 123, the Company's net earnings, and earning per share are adjusted to the pro forma amounts for the 6 months ended January 31, 2009, and 2008, as follows:

(Per $ thousand)    Nine months period ended 
    1/31/2009    1/31/2008 
Net income - as reported    $2,029    $653 
Stock-Based employee compensation    -    - 
Expense included in reported net income, net of tax    -    - 
Total stock-based employee compensation expense    -    - 
determined, under fair- value-based method for    -    - 
all rewards, net of tax    -    - 



Pro forma net profit    $2,029    $653 

The fair value of the options granted in the period ended January 31, 2009 was determined based on the minimum value method. That calculation assumed no dividends, 5 year lives and risk free interest rate of 3.25% .

Impairment of Long-lived Assets: The Company assesses long-lived assets for impairment in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. SFAS 144 requires that the Company assess the value of a long-lived asset whenever there is an indication that its carrying amount may not be recoverable. The carrying amount of a long lived asset is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. The amount of impairment loss, if any, is measured as the difference between the net book value of the asset and its estimated fair value. For purposes of these tests, long-lived assets must be grouped with other assets and liabilities for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. No long-lived assets were impaired during the quarters ended January 31, 2009 and 2008.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards – In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, which is a revision of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. SFAS No. 123R supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and amends SFAS No. 95, Statement of Cash Flows. Generally, the approach in SFAS No. 123R is similar to the approach described in SFAS No. 123. However, SFAS No. 123R requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative. In addition, SFAS No. 123(R) will require additional accounting related to the income tax effects and

20


additional disclosure regarding the cash flow effects resulting from share-based payment arrangements. For public entities that file as a small business issuer, SFAS No. 123R is effective for the first interim or annual reporting period of the Company’s first fiscal year beginning on or after December 15, 2005. The adoption of SFAS No. 123R is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153 “Exchange of Non-Monetary Assets – an Amendment of APB Opinion No. 29” to amend APB No. 29 by eliminating the exception for non-monetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with general exception for exchanges of non-monetary assets that do not have commercial substance. A non-monetary exchange is defined to have commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. The provisions of SFAS No. 153 are effective for non-monetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. The adoption of SFAS No. 153 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In March 2005, the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 107 to give guidance on the implementation of SFAS No. 123R. The Company will consider SAB No. 107 during implementation of SFAS No. 123R.

In August 2005, the FASB issued SFAS 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections. This statement applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle and to changes required by an accounting pronouncement if the pronouncement does not include specific transition provisions, and it changes the requirements for accounting for and reporting them. Unless it is impractical, the statement requires retrospective application of the changes to prior periods’ financial statements. This statement is effective for accounting changes and correction of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005.

SFAS 155 – ‘Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments—an amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140’

This Statement, issued in February 2006, amends FASB Statements No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, and No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities. This Statement resolves issues addressed in Statement 133 Implementation Issue No. D1, “Application of Statement 133 to Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets.”

This Statement:

a. Permits fair value remeasurement for any hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation

b. Clarifies which interest-only strips and principal-only strips are not subject to the requirements of FASB Statement No. 133

c. Establishes a requirement to evaluate interests in securitized financial assets to identify interests that are freestanding derivatives or that are hybrid financial instruments that contain an embedded derivative requiring bifurcation

d. Clarifies that concentrations of credit risk in the form of subordination are not embedded derivatives

e. Amends FASB Statement No. 140 to eliminate the prohibition on a qualifying special-purpose entity from holding a derivative financial instrument that pertains to a beneficial interest other than another derivative financial instrument.

This Statement is effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued after the beginning of our first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006.

The fair value election provided for in paragraph 4(c) of this Statement may also be applied upon adoption of this Statement for hybrid financial instruments that had been bifurcated under paragraph 12 of Statement 133 prior to the adoption of this Statement. Earlier adoption is permitted as of the beginning of our fiscal year, provided we have not yet issued financial statements, including financial statements for any interim period, for that fiscal year. Provisions of this Statement may be applied to instruments that we hold at the date of adoption on an instrument-by-instrument basis.

The Company is currently reviewing the effects of adoption of this statement but it is not expected to have a material impact on our financial statements.

SFAS 156 – ‘Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets—an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140’

21


This Statement, issued in March 2006, amends FASB Statement No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities, with respect to the accounting for separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. This Statement:

1. Requires an entity to recognize a servicing asset or servicing liability each time it undertakes an obligation to service a financial asset by entering into a servicing contract in certain situations.

2. Requires all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities to be initially measured at fair value, if practicable.

3. Permits an entity to choose either the amortization method or the fair value measurement method for each class of separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities.

4. At its initial adoption, permits a one-time reclassification of available-for-sale securities to trading securities by entities with recognized servicing rights, without calling into question the treatment of other available-for-sale securities under Statement 115, provided that the available-for-sale securities are identified in some manner as offsetting the entity’s exposure to changes in fair value of servicing assets or servicing liabilities that a service elects to subsequently measure at fair value.

5. Requires separate presentation of servicing assets and servicing liabilities subsequently measured at fair value in the statement of financial position and additional disclosures for all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities.

Adoption of this Statement is required as of the beginning of the first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material impact on our financial statements.

Impairment of long-lived assets is assessed by the Company whenever there is an indication that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of these assets is determined by comparing the forecasted undiscounted cash flows generated by those assets to the assets’ net carrying value. The amount of impairment loss, if any, is measured as the difference between the net book value of the assets and the estimated fair value of the related assets.

Earning Per Common Share - The Company has adopted SFAS No. 128, Earnings per Share, which supersedes APB No. 15. Net profit per share for all periods presented has been restated to reflect the adoption of SFAS No. 128. Basic earning per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net profit per share is based on the assumption that all dilutive convertible shares and stock options were converted or exercised. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under this method, options and warrants are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. Basic EPS differs from primary EPS calculation in that basic EPS does not include any potentially dilutive securities. Diluted EPS must be disclosed regardless of the dilutive impact to basic EPS (See Note 19).

Foreign currency translation - The foreign subsidiaries maintain their financial statements in the local currency which has been determined to be the functional currency. Substantially all overseas operations are conducted in China, using the functional currencies Renminbi (RMB). Assets and liabilities denominated in the foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates for the year. Related translation adjustments are reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, whereas gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in the results of operations.

Contractual Obligations

During the quarter ended January 31, 2009, the contractual obligations are as follows:

1) A new, operational sub-lease of L&L Seattle office located at 130 Andover Park East, Suite 101, Seattle WA 98188 was entered on April 1, 2008. Lease will be terminated on September 30, 2010. The monthly office lease is $2,762.67, with a security deposit of $2,762.67.

2) A lease of L&L energy operational center located at 5th floor, Unida Bldg,, Kunming, Yunnan was entered in 2007 for a period of one and half years expires in December 2008. The entire lease is not renewable with approx $6,000 payment for the entire lease, made in advance in 2007.

The rent expense for the past quarters ended January 31, 2009 and 2008 were in the amounts of approx. $19,476 and $6,239 respectively.

22


3) See NOTE 23. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES on page 20 for other disclosures.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

While our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar, 100% of our consolidated revenues and 100% of consolidated costs and expenses are denominated in Renminbi (“RMB”), with the balance denominated in U.S. dollars. Substantially all of our assets are denominated in RMB. As a result, we are exposed to foreign exchange risk as our revenues and results of operations may be affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate between U.S. dollars and RMB. If the RMB depreciates against the U.S. dollar, the value of our RMB revenues, earnings and assets as expressed in our U.S. dollar financial statements will decline. We have not entered into any hedging transactions in an effort to reduce our exposure to foreign exchange risk.

Despite the coal (energy) is in shortage of the growing China economy, leading upward movement of coal related prices, market risks do exist if the market situation changed.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

The Company with the participation of its principal executive officer (“CEO”), and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 15d-15e under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the Company, its CEO, and CFO have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of January 31, 2009, covered by this report. During the quarter ended on 1/31/2009, the Company hired Ms. Jane Lu, a CPA, in China to enhance the coal operations and controls.

As required by Rule 15e-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the company has evaluated the internal controls over financial reporting to determine whether any changes occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Based on this evaluation, no such change in the internal controls over financial reporting occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting

During the quarter ended January 31, 2009, covered by this Report, no changes were made to our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. We are aware that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system are met, and that maintenance of disclosure controls and procedures is an ongoing process that may change over time.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

None

Item 1A. Risk Factors

In addition to the risk information contained in the following, the risk factors also include the reports we incorporated in Form 10-Q by reference. Each reader and investor should carefully read and consider these risk factors which may affect the Company’s future results and financial conditions.

1.      Risks Relating To The Company and it Business
 
  The Company’s main business is operating in China. China is developing fast, but China has sophisticated, long history with complicated cultural traditions, which are vastly different from that of the US. The decision making process of China is different than that of the US, which becomes a major risk to the Company incorporated in the US. As China is still developing legal system, laws in China are not the same as the US. The coal business with US ownership controls is allowed in China. However the coal mining in China may subject to governmental influence and control. Potential industrial accidents, and mining safety are important a risk to the Company. Business activities conducted in China are not covered by the US Constitution, nor by the American judicial system. Any legal system reversal, social unrest in China could adversely affect the Company business, its financial conditions and results of operations.
 
  As the Company entered into coal mining business, mining related industrial accidents do happen. It is Chinese government policy to improve mining safety to avoid accidents. The Company is reviewing the existing operational standards, including insurance coverage, and is in discussion with Japan coal mining companies and to recruit professional managers, trying to improve the QC standards of mining operation.
 
  There are critical risks each investor needs to consider them seriously before making an investment in the Company.
 
2.      Ownership of Land, and Mining Rights.
 
  Contrary to the out-right land ownership in the US, land in China is only leased to owners on a long term basis, ranging from 40 to 70 years. This is a system similar to the land lease in New Territory of Hong Kong, during the British colonization in Hong Kong, which ended in 1997. Currently, no law in China prohibits the continuing lease of the same land by the lessee after expiration of the lease.
 
  Coal Mining licenses are the exclusive evidence for the coal mine’s mining rights approved by the Chinese government. Similar to the ownership of land, coal reserves are owned by the Chinese government which leases to a mining operation on a long term (normally 50years), an exclusive mining rights to operate the mine via a mining license. The government charges all mining operators a resources (usage) fee ranging from 2%-3% based on the value of the coal excavated from the ground. A coal mining licenses once issued is to be reviewed and renewed (normally) once a year.
 
3.      Cultural, Political and Language Differences
 
  There are material cultural, political and language differences between China and the United States, which make business negotiations and doing business more difficult in China than that in the United States. Further, continuing trade surpluses, led by the Chinese export to the US over the US export to China, has become a sensitive political issue in the United States, and various members of United States legislature have threatened trade sanctions against China, if China continues its trade surplus with the US. In addition, continuous strong economic growth in China with its possible military buildup may result in American economic sanctions against China that could adversely affect the financial position and results of operations of the Company.

4.      Uncertainty of exchange rate of Chinese Currency (RMB) to the US Dollars
 
  Currently, the Chinese RMB currency is set at a fixed rate against the US dollars and other foreign currencies. RMB is not freely exchanged in the global markets. The Chinese currency is considered by many to be under valued against other foreign currencies, and the US dollars. The Chinese RMB thus may appreciate against the US dollars. RMB value has increased since the summer of 2005, and the trend of further appreciation of RMB against US dollars continues in 2008. When and if the Chinese Government allows a floating exchange rate, it is expected the RMB will appreciate more in its value. The United States has requested that China allow its currency exchange rate to float freely. Implications of currency fluctuation may or may not be favorable to the Company and its investments in China.
 
5.      Reliance upon Key Management
 
  The future success of L & L’s investments in China is dependent on the Company’s management team, including Chairman and CEO of the Company and its professional team, advisors, who speak the languages, understand culture differences of doing business internationally. If one or more of the Company’s key personnel are unable or unwilling to continue in their present positions, the Company may not be able to easily replace them, and may incur additional expenses to recruit and train new personnel. The Company’s business could be severely disrupted and its financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. Furthermore, since the industries the Company invests in are characterized by high demand and intense competition for talent, the Company may need to offer higher compensation and other benefits in order to attract and retain key personnel in the future. The Company cannot assure its investors that it will be able to attract or retain the key personnel needed to achieve our business objectives. Furthermore, the Company does not maintain key-man life insurance for any of its key personnel. Currently, most executives and managers are covered by a one-year term accident insurance policy in China, paid by the Company.
 
6.      Some Director and Officers may reside outside United States
 
  Because the diversity of the Company's directors and officer(s) who may reside both inside and outside of the United States, it may be difficult for investors to enforce his or her rights against them or enforce United States court judgments against them if they live outside the US. After the consummation of the 2 mines (provisional named as L&L Coal, Inc) acquisition, and the KMC coal wholesales, most of the Company's assets are located in China, outside of the United States. The Company will continue to acquire other energy related entities in China in the future. It may therefore be difficult for investors in the United States to enforce their legal rights, to affect service of process upon the Company's directors or officers, or to enforce judgments of United States courts predicated upon civil liabilities and criminal penalties of the Company's directors and officers under Federal securities laws. Further, it is unclear if extradition treaties now in effect between the United States and the PRC would permit effective enforcement of criminal penalties of the Federal securities laws. Insurance Coverage in China
 
  Despite the assets are generally insured, the Company has a very limited business insurance coverage in China. The insurance industry in China is still at an early stage of development. In particular, insurance companies in China offer limited business insurance products. As a result, the executives and managers of the Company only have limited one-year accident insurance coverage. No other business liability or disruption insurance coverage is available for the Company's operations in China, nor for the 2 Mines (under the provisional name of L&L Coal Partners), and KMC subsidiaries in China. Any business disruption, industrial accidents in coal related operations, litigation or natural disaster might result in substantial costs and the diversion of resources.
 
7.      Chinese Legal System/Enforcement of Agreements, Including Acquisition Agreements in China.
 
  Despite China has its own enforcement agency, securities regulators, the Chinese Legal System are in a developmental stage which does not enforce its law as rigid as that of the US. As China, no under the common law system, business conducted there is rule by people, not ruled by law which is different from that of the US. In addition, as China just open up for less than 30 years, its judiciary is relatively inexperienced in enforcing corporate and commercial law, resulting in significant uncertainty as to the outcome of any litigation in China. Consequently, there is a risk that should a dispute arise between the Company and any party with whom the Company has entered into a material agreement in China, the Company may be unable to enforce such agreements under the Chinese legal system. Chinese law will govern almost all of the Company's acquisition agreements, many of which may also require the approval of Chinese government agencies. Thus, the Company cannot assure
 

25


  investors that the target business will be able to enforce any of the Company’s material agreements or that remedies will be available outside China.
 
  Moreover, the Company is aware that the PRC State Administration of Foreign Exchange ("SAFE") SAFE on October 21, 2005 issued a new circular ("Circular 75"), effective November 1, 2005, which supersedes Circular 11 and Circular 29 ceased to be implemented. SAFE also issued a news release about the issuance of its Circular 75 to make it clear that China’s national policies encourage the efforts by Chinese private companies and high technology companies to obtain offshore financing. Circular 75 confirm that the uses of offshore special purpose vehicles (“SPV”) as holding companies for PRC investments are permitted as long as proper foreign exchange registrations are made with SAFE. As China starts to develop its legal system, additional legal, administrative, and regulatory rules and regulations become available on a on-going basis, which the Company may subject to comply in China. It is Chinese cultural, political practice to welcome friendly US investors, and it is China government practice not to vigorously enforce many SAFE matters if to enforce it at all. In China, many economic related rules if not being complied rigorously without bad intent, can often be amended and resolved on a case by case basis without severe penalty. As China believes society is ruled by People, not ruled by Law, to maintain a harmonious environment, which is vastly different from that of the US. It is the Company position, if any disagreement incurred with a government agency, or a business entity in China, L&L is to negotiate with the disagreement in China to keep a harmonious relationship doing business in China.
 
  Despite the entire registration has not completed, the Company received an approval of from the Chinese government of L&L ownership of KMC and LSP (a new entity intent to replace LEK air compressor subsidiary) as of January 31, 2009. The 2 coal mines (DaPuAn Mine and SuTsong Mine) recently acquired is in a process to prepare registration with the Chinese government, under a provisional name of L&L Coal Partner. While LEK investment being formulated in 2004 prior to the SAFE Circular, maybe grand-fathered out off the SAFE registration, which is spinned off during current quarter. It is unclear to what extent the regulations is applied to the Company, the Company believes that Circular 75 or other related Circular, or regulations may likely be further clarified by SAFE, in writing or through oral comments by officials from SAFE, or through implementation by SAFE in connection with actual transactions.
 
8.      Risks Associated with the Company’s Business Strategy Contemplating Growth May Need More Capital
 
  As the Company continues to grow quickly, it requires capital infusions from the capital market. Under the strategies, the ability to grow through will depend on its availability of additional fund, suitable acquisition targets at an acceptable cost. The Company’s ability to compete effectively to reach agreement with acquisition targets on commercially reasonable terms to secure financing is critical and to attract professional managers are critical to the Company success. The benefits of an acquisition may take considerable time to develop and we cannot assure investors that any particular acquisition or joint venture will produce the intended benefits. Moreover, the identification and completion of these transactions may require us expend significant management and other resources.
 
9.      The Company Acquisition Strategy May Result In Dilution To Its Stockholders
 
  The Company business strategy calls for strategic acquisition of other coal related businesses. In the past, the acquisitions of KMC and LEK the Company issued 485,592 common shares and 1,708,283 common shares respectively as consideration for these 2 purchases. There are 400,000 shares issued to the 2 Mines (under the provisional name of L&L Coal Partners) on 8/20/2008. It is anticipated that future acquisitions will require cash and issuances of L&L capital stock, including our common stock, warrants, preferred shares, or convertible bonds in the future. To the extent we are required to pay cash for any acquisition, we anticipate that we would be required to obtain additional equity and/or debt financing from either the public sector, or private financing. Equity financing would result in dilution for our then current stockholders. Stock issuances and financing, if obtained, may not be on terms favorable to us and could result in substantial dilution to our stockholders at the time(s) of these stock issuances and financings. Availability of significant amounts of our common stock for sale could adversely affect its market price.
 
  As of January 31, 2009, there were approximately 20,519,201 shares of our common stock outstanding with certain amount of warrants issued. Please refer to the Statement of Shareholders Equity for details.
 
10.      Recently enacted changes in securities laws and regulations are likely to increase our costs
 

26


The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Sarbanes-Oxley”), which became law in July 2002, requires changes in our corporate governance, public disclosure and compliance practices. Sarbanes-Oxley also requires the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), to promulgate new rules on a variety of corporate governance and disclosure subjects. We expect these developments to increase our legal and financial compliance costs.

We also expect these developments in additional to the existing securities rules and regulation to make it more difficult and more expensive for the Company to attract and retain additional members of the board of Directors (both independent and regular ones), and additional executive officers especially a recruitment of a full time CFO. In the worst case, at the expenses of increasing securities laws and regulations, the Company may not be able to continue to maintain its status as a US public company, and may need to seek listing in a market outside the United States, such as Hong Kong Stock Exchange among others foreign exchanges, or become a private company.
