Item 1. Description of Business
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
General
RPM Advantage, Inc., (formerly Communitronics of America, Inc.)
was organized in the state of Utah on September 21, 1970 and
re-incorporated in Nevada in April 2006.
The Company is an independent operator in the Exploration and Production
(E & P) segment of oil and gas industry. The Company focus is on
secondary recovery leases that have known proven reserves and can have
their values increased by and through the application of new and
emerging enhanced recovery technologies. The Company considers itself
to be one operating segment.
RPM Advantage's overall business strategy is to continue growing in its
existing markets as well as to enter similar, adjacent markets by acquiring
new leases or acquiring other oil and gas companies.
Petroleum Industry Background
The petroleum industry includes the global processes of exploration,
extraction, refining, transporting (often by oil tankers and pipelines),
and marketing petroleum products. The largest volume products of the
industry are fuel oil and gasoline (petrol). Petroleum is also the raw
material for many chemical products, including pharmaceuticals, solvents,
fertilizers, pesticides, and plastics. The industry is usually divided
into three major components: upstream, midstream and downstream.
Midstream operations are usually included in the downstream category.
Petroleum is vital to many industries, and is of importance to the
maintenance of industrial civilization itself, and thus is a critical
concern for many nations. Oil accounts for a large percentage of the
worlds energy consumption, ranging from a low of 32% for Europe and
Asia, up to a high of 53% for the Middle East.
Other geographic regions consumption patterns are as follows: South
and Central America (44%), Africa (41%), and North America (40%). The
world consumes 30 billion barrels (4.8 km) of oil per year, with developed
nations being the largest consumers. The United States consumed 25% of the
oil produced in 2007. The production, distribution, refining, and
retailing of petroleum taken as a whole represents the worlds largest
industry in terms of dollar value.

OVERVIEW

specified number of shares of the Companys common stock and
preferred stock to be issued and the Company will acquire all
of the issued and outstanding equity interest of Resource

of the Company.
The officers and directors of RPM and Resource Protection agreed
on December 7, 2006 that the transaction was rescinded and reversed
and not never complete, hence never consummated as required by law,
and that the transaction, if complete in any manner, should be
deemed now fully and in all things rescinded.
We shall return to Resource Protection, immediately, all of the

to which it is entitled pursuant to this Agreement, is authorized to
cancel any securities which were the subject of this Agreement, with
the result that Resource Protection shall own no shares of RPM, and
RPM shall own no interest of Resource Protection.
On May 4, 2006, the Company entered into an Definitive Purchase and
Sale Agreement and Plan of Reorganization with Buchanan Electric, Inc.
a Massachusetts corporation and James Buchanan, the sole security
holder of Buchanan Electric, Inc.
Under the terms and the conditions of the Agreement, RPM has exchanged
one million (1,000,000) shares of RPM restricted common stock for all
of the outstanding common stock of Buchanan. The Company will acquire
all of the issued and outstanding equity interest of Buchanan, making

of the transaction is seventeen million dollars ($17,000,000) of RPM

hundred thousand($3,300,000) in debt.
By the terms of the Agreement RPM was to acquire all of the
issued and outstanding equity interest owned by Buchanan in
the company, making Buchanan Electric a wholly owned subsidiary of
the company. We have been advised that in your opinion Buchanan,
and in the opinion of Buchanan counsel, the merger agreement was
never consummated and that the shares of Buchanan Electric were
never transferred to RPM in exchange for the RPM shares pursuant
to the transaction identified, Due to the inability of the Buchanan
to be refinance and the Mr. Buchanan desire to not extend our option
time to finish the refinancing.
The officers and directors of RPM agree that the transaction was never
complete, hence never consummated as required by law, and that the
transaction, if complete in any manner, should be deemed now fully
and in all things rescinded.

which originally owned them, is not complete within 15 days , any
party not in receipt of the securities to which it is entitled

which were the subject of this Agreement, with the result that
Buchanan shall own no shares of RPM, and RPM shall own no shares
of Buchanan.
The Company supports its operations from its executive offices in
Houston, Texas.
The geographic areas the Company is looking to explore includes
Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi and all
other United States onshore leases .
Economic and Other Factors
The post September 11th era has generally been characterized by a
favorable business climate for suppliers of Oil an natural gas.
The Company believes the Exploration and Production market is
likely to continue to exhibit healthy growth, particularly
in industrial sectors, due to ongoing concerns over the adequacy
of security safeguards in Oil producing nations and a continued
world-wide demand for Energy.
Business Concentration and Credit Risk
An entity is more vulnerable to concentrations of credit risk if it is
exposed to risk of loss greater than it would have had if it mitigated
its risk through diversification of customers. Such risks of loss manifest
differently, depending on the nature of the concentration, and vary in
significance.

raising capital and finding additional strategic assets to acquire, The
availability of financing and the ability to reduce the combined companies

INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRMS REPORT
To the Stockholders
RPM Advantage, Inc.
2500 West Loop South
Suite 304
Houston, Texas 77027
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of RPM Advantage, Inc.
as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related statements of operations
and changes in stockholders deficit and cash flows for the years then ended.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based
on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards
required by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the
Companys internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included
consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for
designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but
not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the
Companys internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express
no such opinion. 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.
The accompanying 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 has a large accumulated deficit
through December 31, 2007. This condition raises substantial doubt
about its ability to continue as a Going Concern. Managements plans
in regard to these matters are also described in Note 9.
The figures used in the financial statement comparison for the year ending 2005
were audited by another accounting firm and not audited by our firm. As such,
these figures were used for comparison only and we do not express an opinion
on the 2005 financial statements.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of RPM Advantage, Inc.
for preparation of Form 10-KSB as of December 31, 2007 and 2006
and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years
then ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles.

ITEM 1. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
RPM ADVANTAGE, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements
NOTE #1 Organization, Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation
RPM Advantage, Inc., (formerly Communitronics,Inc.)
was organized in the state of Utah on September 21, 1970 and
re-incorporated in Nevada in April 2006.
The Company is an independent operator in the Exploration and Production
(E & P) segment of oil an gas industry. The Company. The focus is on
secondary recovery leases that have known proven reserves and can have
their values increased by and through the application of new and
emerging enhanced recovery technologies. The Company considers itself
to be one operating segment.
NOTE #2 Significant Accounting Policies
The significant accounting policies followed by the Company in
preparing its consolidated financial statements are set forth
in Note (2) to such consolidated financial statements included
in Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. The Company
has made no significant changes to these policies during 2007.
A. The Company uses the accrual method of accounting.
B. Revenues and directly related expenses are recognized in the
period then the goods are shipped to the customer.
C. The Company considers all short term, highly liquid investments
that are readily convertible, within three months, to known amounts
as cash equivalents. The Company currently has no cash equivalents.
D. Basic Earnings Per Shares are computed by dividing income available
to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding during the period. Diluted Earnings Per Share shall be
computed by including contingently issuable shares with the weighted
average shares outstanding during the period. When inclusion of the
contingently issuable shares outstanding during the period. When
inclusion of the contingently issuable shares would have an
anti-dilutive effect upon earnings per share no diluted earnings per
share shall be presented.
E. Inventories: Inventories are stated at the lower of cost,
determined by the FIFO method or market.
F. Depreciation: The cost of property and equipment is depreciated
over the estimated useful lives of the related Communitronics Group,
Inc. assets. The cost of leasehold improvements is amortized over the
lesser of the length of the lease of the related assets of the
estimated lives of the assets. Depreciation and amortization is
computed on the straight-line method.
G. Estimates: The preparation of the financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting Principles requires
management to make estimates and Communitronics Assumptions that affect
the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying
notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
H. Cash: The company policy for any cash balances above $100,000 in any
one account is to sweep the funds into a company brokerage account,
which under the Securities Investor Protectors Corporation, insures
cash balances up to $5,000,000.
I. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets: In accordance with Statement 144,
long-lived assets, such as property, plant, and equipment, and
purchased intangible assets subject to amortization, are reviewed for
impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that
the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability
of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the
carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash
flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an
asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge
is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset
exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of would be
separately presented in the balance sheet and reported at the lower of
the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and are no longer
depreciated. The assets and liabilities of a disposal group classified
as held for sale would be presented separately in the appropriate
asset and liability sections of the balance sheet.
Goodwill and intangible assets that have indefinite useful lives are
tested annually for impairment, and are tested for impairment more
frequently if events and circumstances indicate that the asset might
be impaired. An impairment loss is recognized to the
extent that the carrying amount exceeds the assets fair value.
For goodwill, the impairment determination is made at the reporting
unit level and consists of two steps. First, the Company determines
the fair value of a reporting unit and compares it to its carrying
amount.
Second, if the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair
value, an impairment loss is recognized for any excess of the carrying
amount of the reporting units goodwill over the implied fair value of
that goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined by
allocating the fair value of the reporting unit in a manner similar
to a purchase price allocation, in accordance with FASB Statement No.
141, Business Combinations. The residual fair value after this
allocation is the implied fair value of the reporting unit goodwill.
J. Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount
and do not bear interest. Amounts collected on accounts
receivable are included in net cash provided by operating
activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows.
The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Companys best
estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the Companys
existing accounts receivable. The Company determines the
allowance based on historical write-off experience by
industry and national economic data. Past due balances
over 90 days and over a specified amount are reviewed
individually for collectability.
K. Principles of Consolidation. The consolidated financial
statements include our accounts and those of our wholly owned
subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts
and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
NOTE #3 Income Taxes
RPM Advantage, Inc., has adopted SFAS 109 to account for income
taxes. RPM ADVANTAGE, Inc., currently has no issues that
create timing differences that would mandate deferred tax expense. Net
operating losses would create possible tax assets in future years. Due
to the uncertainty as to the utilization of net operating loss carry forwards
an evaluation allowance has been made to the extent of any tax benefit
that net-operating losses may generate. Subsequent to the report
RPM ADVANTAGE, had a change in officers and a change in control.
When control of an entity changes net operating losses generally can be used
only by the taxpayer (Officers) who sustained the losses. There can be no
assurance that the net operating losses sustained before the change in
control will be available for future benefits.
RPM ADVANTAGE, Inc., has incurred losses that can be
carried forward to offset future earnings if conditions of the Internal
Revenue Codes are met. These losses are as follows:
Year of Loss Amount Expiration Date
2005-2006 $7,002,704 2020
Current Tax Asset Value of Net Operating Loss Carry forwards At Current
Prevailing Federal Tax Rate (33.9%) $2,310,892
Evaluation Allowance (33.9%) $2,310,892
Net Tax Asset $ -0-
Current Income Tax Expense -0-
Deferred Income Tax Benefit -0-
Note #4 Contingencies
In 2005, the Company became aware of a prior claim for services.
The Company is investigating the validity of the claim. In the process
of dealing with this claim the Company has established procedures in
handling prior claims and a reserve of $50,000 for these matters.
Note #5 Stockholders' Equity
As of December 31, 2006, there was approximately 44,535,286
of $.001 Shares of common stock outstanding. The company has no
outstanding warrants or stock based compensation to account for as of

Equity in the Amended filing from 7/14/2006. An extra table has been
inserted in the Changes in Stockholders' Equity section to correct
