The Company was incorporated to originate new residential mortgages. It has not written any new residential mortgages since September 1995, at which time it gradually began the liquidation of its portfolio. After exploring new business opportunities, an agreement among certain current and former shareholders was concluded on January 22, 1997, which permitted the Company to initiate a business strategy of developing paging licenses in Latin America. By date of April 7, 1997, as subsequently amended, the Company entered into an agreement with Auto Link Telecom S.A. ("Auto Link") to acquire 77.76% of its issued and outstanding capital stock as follows: 33.34% of the outstanding voting stock (which constitutes 11.10% of Auto Link's outstanding capital stock)and 100% of the outstanding non-voting stock (all of which constitutes 66.66% of Auto Link's outstanding capital stock). The Company was also granted irrevocable and irretractable option rights with respect to purchasing the remaining 22.24% of Auto Link's issued and outstanding capital stock (representing 66.66% of the outstanding voting stock). Auto Link holds permits from the Brazilian Ministry of Communications to operate paging services in Sao Paulo, Brazil and 32 surrounding municipalities.
To date the Company has generated no net income from its paging business. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business.
As of the date of financial statements, the Company’s former businesses have all been abandoned or discontinued and all assets were disposed of.
There are no legal proceedings. |
B. Business Overview

Exchange Controls
The company is not subject to any governmental laws, decrees or regulations in Canada which restrict the export or import of capital, including any foreign exchange controls, or which affect the remittance of dividends, interest or other payments to non-resident holders of the Company’s Common Stock. Nor do the laws of Canada or the Company’s Articles impose any limitation on the rights of non-resident foreign owners to hold or vote the common stock of the Company.
Taxation
The following is a summary of the principal Canadian federal income tax considerations under the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the “Act”) generally applicable to holders of common shares who are not resident or deemed to be resident in Canada, who hold their common shares as capital property and who do not use or hold and are not deemed to use or hold common shares in carrying on business in Canada, except, in certain situations, holders who carry on an insurance business in Canada and elsewhere. This summary is based on the current provisions of the Act, the regulations thereunder, specific proposals to amend the Act or the regulations publicly announced by the Minister of Finance before the date hereof and counsel’s understanding of the current administrative practices published by Canada Revenue Agency but does not take into account provincial or territorial income tax laws. This summary is not exhaustive of all possible income tax considerations and holders or prospective purchasers are advised to consult with their own tax advisers with respect to their particular circumstances.
Capital gains realized on the disposition of common shares will not be subject to tax under the Act unless such common shares are taxable Canadian property of the holder within the meaning of the Act. Common shares will generally not be taxable Canadian property to a holder unless, at any time during the five-year period immediately preceding a disposition, the holder, persons with whom the holder did not deal at arm’s length was considered to own under the Act 25% or more of the issued shares of any class or series of the Company. Even if the common shares constitute taxable Canadian property to a particular holder, an exemption from tax under the act may be available under the provisions of any applicable international tax treaty. In the case of residents of the United States (other than certain former residents of Canada), the Canada-United States Income Tax Convention (1980) (the “US/Canada Tax Treaty”) provides an exemption from tax unless the value of the common shares at the time of disposition is derived principally from real property situated in Canada (which the Company believes is not currently the case and does not expect to be the case in the future).
Dividends paid or credited on the common shares will be subjected to Canadian withholding tax under the Act at a rate of 25%, subject to reduction under the provisions of any applicable international tax treaty. In the case of residents of the Unites States who own less than 10% of the Company’s voting stock, the U.S./Canada Tax Treaty reduces the rate to 15%. Under the U.S./Canada Tax Treaty, dividends paid to certain religious, scientific, charitable and similar tax-exempt organizations and certain pension organizations that are resident in, and exempt from tax in, the United States are exempt from Canadian non-resident withholding tax. Provided that certain administrative procedures are observed regarding registration of such organizations, the Company will not be required to withhold such tax from payments made to such organizations. Qualifying organizations that fail to follow the required administrative procedures will have to file a claim for refund to recover any amounts withheld.
The Company itself is taxed in Canada both at the federal and the provincial level. The federal tax rate is 19% and the provincial tax rate is 15% for an effective overall tax rate of 34% of net income.

Item 15. Managements Annual Report on Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
During the period of time covered by this report, the Company was a development stage corporation with no assets or activity. As a going concern, the Company will establish and maintain adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined by SEC rules adopted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principals. It consists of policies and procedures that:
A) | Pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; |
B) | Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of the financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principals, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors, and: |
C) | Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition or our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. |
Since our Company was a development stage corporation, during this accounting period, and there were no operations, we conclude that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2006. Our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in timely alerting the officers to material information required to be included in our period Securities and Exchange Commission filings at reasonable assurance levels due to the material weaknesses described below.
In light of the material weaknesses described below, we performed additional analysis and other post-closing procedures to ensure our consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, we believe that the consolidated financial statements included in this report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
A material weakness is a control deficiency (within the meaning of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) Auditing Standard No. 2) or combination of control deficiencies, which result in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. Management has determined that we did not maintain a sufficient amount of accounting and finance personnel with adequate depth and skill in the application of generally accepted accounting principles as demonstrated by our inability to timely file our 6-K and 20-F filings for the years 1998-2007.
Remediation of Material Weaknesses
To remediate the material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures identified above, we are being assisted by outside accounting personnel. We do not believe that this outsourcing will be effective once we commence significant operations. As a result, our internal controls may continue to be inadequate or ineffective, which could cause our financial reporting to be unreliable and lead to misinformation being disseminated to the public. Investors relying upon this misinformation may make an uninformed investment decision. However, we believe, once funding is available and have established criteria by which we will retain the expertise required to provide adequate and effective financial reporting.
Item 16A. Audit Committee Financial Expert
(a)(ii) The company does not have an audit committee or a financial expert serving on its board of directors, therefore the entire board constitutes the audit committee. At the time covered in this report, the Company was dormant and had no operations or audit committee.
Item 16B. Code of Ethics
The Company adopted a Code of Ethical Conduct. This was filed with its December 31, 2005 Form 20-F.
Item 16C. Principal Accountant Fees and Services
The aggregate fees paid relating to the audit of the Company’s financial statements for the year 2006 was $0.00.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors
SIPP Industries, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of SIPP Industries, Inc. (formerly Promax Communications Inc.) as of December 31, 2006 and the related statements of operations ( except for cumulative since its inception) , changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows ( except for cumulative since its inception) for the fiscal year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audit 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 audit provides 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 SIPP Industries, Inc. (formerly Promax Communications Inc.) as of December 31, 2006, and the results of their operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
The financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company’s results of operations raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Promax Communications Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Expressed in United States dollars)
December 31, 2006
1. Operations:
Promax Communications, Inc. (the "Company") was originally incorporated under the laws of British Columbia as First Canadian Financial Corporation on July 23, 1993. It changed its name by amendment on January 12, 1995 to Promax Communications, Inc. It changed jurisdictions by filing Articles of Continuation on April 4, 1998, thereby moving domiciles to the Yukon Territory, where it exists today.
From the date of incorporation through January 1997 the Company was engaged in the issuance of residential property mortgages. On January 22, 1997 an agreement among certain current and former shareholders was concluded which permitted the Company to initiate a business strategy of developing paging licenses in Latin America.
By date of April 7, 1997, as subsequently amended, the Company entered into an agreement with Auto Link Telecom S.A. ("Auto Link") to acquire 77.76% of its issued and outstanding capital stock as follows: 33.34% of the outstanding voting stock (which constitutes 11.10% of Auto Link's outstanding capital stock)and 100% of the outstanding non-voting stock (all of which constitutes 66.66% of Auto Link's outstanding capital stock). The Company was also granted irrevocable and irretractable option rights with respect to purchasing the remaining 22.24% of Auto Link's issued and outstanding capital stock (representing 66.66% of the outstanding voting stock). Auto Link holds permits from the Brazilian Ministry of Communications to operate paging services in Sao Paulo, Brazil and 32 surrounding municipalities.
To date the Company has generated no net income from its paging business. These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business.
As of the date of financial statements, the Company’s former businesses have all been abandoned or discontinued and all assets were disposed of.
2. Significant accounting policies:
a) Basis of Presentation - Development Stage Company
The Company has not earned any revenue from operations. Accordingly, the Company's activities have been accounted for as those of a "Development Stage Company" as set forth in Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 7 ("SFAS 7"). Among the disclosures required by SFAS 7 are that the Company's financial statements be identified as those of a development stage company, and that the statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows disclose activity since the date of the Company's inception.
b) Accounting estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates that affect the reported value of assets, such as mortgages and loans, and liabilities and the 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. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
c) Reporting currency:
Because the Company's operations are primarily denominated in U.S. dollar based currencies, the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2006 have been restated from Canadian dollars to U.S. dollars.
d) Cash equivalents:
Cash equivalents are represented by short-term investments issued by major financial institutions having original terms to maturity of three months or less when acquired.
e) Foreign exchange:
The Company's businesses which operate in other than U.S. dollars are considered to be self-sustaining in nature. Accordingly, assets and liabilities are translated into United States dollars at rates of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date. Transactions which impact the determination of earnings are translated at average exchange rates during each reporting period. Exchange gains and losses arising from the translation of the businesses into U.S. Dollars are excluded from the determination of income and disclosed as the cumulative translation adjustment in shareholders' equity in the consolidated balance sheets. Other exchange gains and losses are included in the determination of income.
f) Loss per share:
Loss per share is calculated based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding after giving retroactive effect to the stock consolidation in the year ended December 31, 2006.
g) Financial instruments:
Financial instruments include notes payable and accrued interest liabilities, which the estimated fair values do not differ materially from their carrying value due to the short-term nature of such financial instruments.
h) Comparative figures:
Certain comparative figures have been reclassified to conform with the basis of presentation adopted in the current year's consolidated financial statements.
i) Impact of New Accounting Standards
The Company does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on the Company's results of operations, financial position, or cash flow.
3. Going Concern
The Company is in dormant stage with no assets and has no operating business. The Company has significant working capital needs in order to continue its existence. Moreover, in the absence of significant business operation, the Company will have to seek to raise additional funds to meet its working capital needs principally through the additional sales of its securities. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain sufficient additional funds when needed, or that such funds, if available, will be obtainable on terms satisfactory to the Company.
4. Capital stock:
Share of Common stock;
Authorized:
10,000,000 preferred shares with $0.001 par value
250,000,000 common shares with $0.001 par value
As of December 31, 2006, there were 12,093,851 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.
Shares of Preferred Stock:
As of December 31, 2006, there were no preferred shares of stock issued and outstanding.
Issuer's Options, Warrants and/or Subscriptions. There are no options, warrants and/ or subscriptions for any shares of the Issuer's common or preferred stock for the year ended December 31, 2006.
5. Reconciliation to United States accounting principles:
The basic consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Canada which differ in certain respects from those accounting principles that are generally accepted in the United States. The significant differences to these consolidated financial statements are set out below.
(a) For United States accounting purposes, the Company has adopted SFAS 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." The adoption of SFAS 109 had no effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations as the future benefit of loss carry forwards would be fully offset by a valuation allowance.
(b) For United States accounting purposes, capital stock issued for non-cash consideration, including on the acquisition of businesses and as broker fees, are non-cash transactions which would be excluded from the consolidated statements of changes in financial position and reported separately.
(c) In accordance with the provision of SFAS 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", for United States accounting purposes the Company applies the provisions of APB Opinion No. 23 to the measurement and recognition of value of stock-based compensation.
6. Subsequent events:
Business acquisitions
On August 31, 2007, the Company share exchange agreement with SIPP, Inc., a Nevada corporation whereby the Company issued 16,743,375 shares of common stocks for all the outstanding capital of SIPP, Inc. The share exchange has been accounted for as a reverse merger followed with a recapitalization. As a result, SIPP, Inc. is considered the accounting acquirer and consequently the financial historical of SIPP, Inc. will become the financial historical of the Company.
On August 24, 2007, the Issuer affected a 1 for 1,000 reverse split of its shares of common stock resulting in 47,596 shares of common stock, with rounding up to the next digit.
As of August 31, 2007, there were 22,372,261shares of common stock issued and outstanding. There were 12,761 shares of common stock that are free-trading and an additional 5,581,125 shares of common stock that are eligible to become free-trading in the near future. The balance of the 16,743,375 shares of common stock are restricted.
On August 31, 2007, there were (i) 16,743,375shares of common stock issued for the share exchange for the acquiring of a wholly owned subsidiary of Sipp, Inc., a Nevada corporation, (ii) 5,581,125 shares issued for settlement of corporate debt. As a result of the forward split of 2 for 1 on October 9, 2007, those 16,743,375 shares of common stock resulted in 33,486,750. On November 1, 2007, there were 113,250 shares of common stock issued to Sipp, Inc. to increase their post split share position from 33,486,750 to 33,600,000. This was to enable Sipp, Inc, to exchange their shares without fractional units. This allows for 1.2 shares of common stock of the Issuer to be exchanged for 1 share of Sipp, Inc., the private corporation and now the subsidiary of the Issuer.
All of the shares of common stock issued in the last two years were issued pursuant to the exemption from registration provided in Section 4(2) of the Securities and Exchange Act.
