Coal Mining Segment
In November 2012, we sold our interest on Da Ping Mine to Union Energy. The coal mining segment analysis is separated into a table for continued operations (which exclude Da Ping). Also excluded in the table are the results of Ping Yi Mine, which was sold on November 18, 2012.
Since DaPuAn only washes its own coal from its own mine, we only listed the raw coal under the Mining Segment. We have considered this is part of the total service provided within DaPuAn before the coal was sold to customer. There was no washing reported separately.
The following tables summarize the year-to-year operating data for our coal mining segment:
Continued Operations, excluding intersegment transactions (Excludes Da Ping Coal Mine for 2013 and 2012 and Ping Yi Mine for 2012):

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of L&L Energy, Inc. and its subsidiaries’ (the “Company”) as of April 30, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended April 30, 2013. The Company’s management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of L&L Energy, Inc. and its subsidiaries as of April 30, 2013 and 2012, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended April 30, 2013 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), L&L Energy, Inc. and its subsidiaries’ internal control over financial reporting as of April 30, 2013, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), and our report dated July 29, 2013 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
