Part I

Item 1. BusinessGeneral Information

You should read the following summary together with the more detailed business information and the financial statements and related notes that appear elsewhere in this annual report. In this report, unless the context otherwise denotes, references to we, us, our, Company, Baron and Baron Energy are to Baron Energy Inc. (formerly Nevwest Explorations Corp.).

Baron Energy Inc. was incorporated as Nevwest Explorations Corp. in the State of Nevada on July 24, 2007 to engage in the acquisition, exploration and development of natural resource properties. Effective September 2, 2008 we changed our name from Nevwest Explorations Corp. to Baron Energy Inc. We are an exploration stage company with no revenues and limited operating history. The principal executive offices are located at 1081 S. Cimarron, Unit #B5, Las Vegas, NV 89145. The telephone and fax number is (702)993-7424.

Cash provided by financing activities for the period from inception (July 24, 2007) through July 31, 2008 was $75,000, $15,000 pursuant to the sale of 6,000,000 shares of common stock issued to our director for $0.0025 per share and $60,000 pursuant to the sale of 6,000,000 registered shares of common stock issued to 28 unaffiliated shareholders for $0.01 per share.

General Information

The Company had conducted exploration activities on the May 1-4 Mineral Claims. A three-phase exploration program to evaluate the Claims was originally recommended by the consulting geologist in his report. Phase 1 of the work program consisting of detailed prospecting, mapping and soil geochemistry was recently completed and the consulting geologist provided us with his recommendations. The report was not favorable for continued exploration.Due to the results of the geologist's report, the Company has decided not to pursue any further testing or

Commission, ("SEC"), at the SEC's Public Reference Room at 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC 20549. The public may obtain information on the operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330. The SEC maintains an Internet site (http://www.sec.gov) that contains reports, proxy and information statements, and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

We need to continue as a going concern if our business is to succeed. Our independent auditor has raised doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

The Independent Auditor's Report to our audited financial statements for the year ended July 31, 2008 indicates that there are a number of factors that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Such factors identified in the report are that we have no profitable operations and our dependence upon obtaining adequate financing. If we are not able to continue as a going concern, it is likely investors will lose all of their investment.

We are an exploration stage company and face a high risk of business failure.

Potential investors should be aware of the difficulties normally encountered by new exploration companies and the high rate of failure of such enterprises. The likelihood of success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays encountered in connection with the exploration of the properties that we plan to undertake. These potential problems include, but are not limited to, unanticipated problems relating to exploration, and additional costs and expenses that may exceed current estimates.

Our exploration efforts may be unsuccessful resulting in any funds spent on exploration being lost.

No known economic deposits have been established on our properties. Even in the event commercial quantities of minerals are discovered, the exploration property might not be brought into a state of commercial production. Finding deposits is dependent on a number of factors, including the technical skill of exploration personnel involved. The commercial viability of a deposit once discovered is also dependent on a number of factors, some of which are particular attributes of the deposit, such as size, grade and proximity to infrastructure, as well as metal prices.

Because of the inherent dangers involved in mineral exploration, there is a risk that we may incur liability or damages, which could hurt our financial position and possibly result in the failure of our business.

The search for valuable minerals involves numerous hazards. As a result, we may become subject to liability for such hazards, including pollution, cave-ins and other hazards against which we cannot insure or against which we may elect not to insure. The payment of such liabilities may have a material adverse effect on our financial position.

Even if we discover commercial reserves of precious metals, we may not be able to successfully commence commercial production.



6

---

The May 1-4 Mineral Claims do not contain any known bodies of mineralization. If our exploration programs are successful in establishing gold and silver of commercial tonnage and grade, we will require additional funds in order to place the May 1-4 Mineral Claims into commercial production. We may not be able to obtain such financing.

We may not have access to all of the supplies and materials we need to begin exploration which could cause us to delay or suspend activities.

Competition and unforeseen limited sources of supplies in the industry could result in occasional spot shortages of supplies, such as dynamite, and certain equipment such as bulldozers and excavators that we might need to conduct exploration. We have not attempted to locate or negotiate with any suppliers of products, equipment or materials. We will attempt to locate products, equipment and materials after this offering is complete. If we cannot find the products and equipment we need, we will have to suspend our exploration plans until we do find the products and equipment we need.

Government regulation or other legal uncertainties may increase costs and our business will be negatively affected.

Laws and regulations govern the exploration, development, mining, production, importing and exporting of minerals; taxes; labor standards; occupational health; waste disposal; protection of the environment; mine safety; toxic substances; and other matters. In many cases, licenses and permits are required to conduct mining operations. Amendments to current laws and regulations governing operations and activities of mining companies or more stringent implementation thereof could have a substantial adverse impact on the Company. Applicable laws and regulations will require the Company to make certain capital and operating expenditures to initiate new operations. Under certain circumstances, the Company may be required to stop its exploration activities once it is started until a particular problem is remedied or to undertake other remedial actions.

Because our directors have other business interests, they may not be able or willing to devote a sufficient amount of time to our business operations, causing our business to fail.

Our independent director, Mr. Schiliro may not always devote fulltime services to us. While he presently possesses adequate time to attend to our interests, it is possible that the demands on our directors from other obligations could increase with the result that he would no longer be able to devote sufficient time to aid in the management of our business.

Item 2. Properties

We do not currently own any property. The office facilities at 1081 S. Cimarron, Suite #B5, Las Vegas, NV are rented to us at a cost of approximately $100 per month. The facilities include telephone, fax, a reception area, office and meeting facilities and secretarial services, all of which are available on a pay as you use basis. Management believes the current premises are sufficient for its needs at this time.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings

We are not currently involved in any legal proceedings and we are not aware of any pending or potential legal actions.

Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

Part II

Item 5. Market for Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters

Our common stock is currently listed for trading on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol BRON (formerly NVWT). There has been no active trading market.

Of the 12,000,000 shares of common stock outstanding as of July 31, 2008, 6,000,000 shares are owned by Albert Abah, a former officer and director, and may only be resold in compliance with Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933.

As of July 31, 2008, we have 12,000,000 Shares of $0.001 par value common stock issued and outstanding, held by 29 shareholders of record.

The stock transfer agent for our securities is Holladay Stock Transfer.

Subsequent Events

On August 29, 2008 we completed a private placement of equity in the aggregate amount of $350,000. Pursuant to the terms of the offering, the Company sold 700,000 post-split shares of common stock at a price of $0.50 per share.

On September 2, 2008 we completed a 2 for 1 forward stock split of our issued outstanding common stock. Our authorized capital was not increased and shall remain at 75,000,000 shares of common stock but our outstanding share capital increased from 6,000,000 shares of common stock to 12,000,000 shares of common stock, plus 700,000 shares to be issued as a result of the private placement.

Dividends

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock. For the foreseeable future, we intend to retain any earnings to finance the development and expansion of our business, and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on its common stock. Any future determination to pay dividends will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors and will be dependent upon then existing conditions, including our financial condition and results of operations, capital requirements, contractual restrictions, business prospects, and other factors that the board of directors considers relevant.

Section Rule 15(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934

The Company's shares are covered by Section 15(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended that imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker/dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouses). For transactions covered by the Regulation, the broker/dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase and have received the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction prior to the sale. Consequently, the Rule may affect the ability of broker/dealers to sell our securities and also may affect your ability to sell your shares in the secondary market.

Section 15(g) also imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker/dealers who sell penny securities. These rules require a one page summary of certain essential items. The items include the risk of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary marketing; terms important to in understanding of the function of the penny stock market, such as "bid" and "offer" quotes, a dealers "spread" and broker/dealer compensation; the broker/dealer compensation, the broker/dealers duties to its customers, including the disclosures required by any other penny stock disclosure rules; and the customers rights and remedies in causes of fraud in penny stock transactions.

Securities authorized for issuance under equity compensation plans

We do not have any equity compensation plans and accordingly we have no securities authorized for issuance thereunder.

Section 16(a)

Based solely upon a review of Form 3 and 4 furnished by us under Rule 16a-3(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, we are not aware of any individual who failed to file a required report on a timely basis required by Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Purchases of Equity Securities by the Issuer and Affiliated Purchasers

There were no shares of common stock or other securities purchased by the issuer or affiliated purchasers during the year ended July 31, 2008.



Item 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Results of Operations

We are still in our exploration stage and have generated no revenues to date.

We incurred operating expenses of $19,906 and $590 for the years ended July 31, 2008 and 2007. These expenses consisted of general operating expenses and professional fees incurred in connection with the day to day operation of our business and the preparation and filing of our SB-2 Registration Statement and required reports.

Our net loss from inception through July 31, 2008 was $20,496.

Cash provided by financing activities for the period from inception (July 24, 2007) through July 31, 2008 was $75,000, $15,000 pursuant to the sale of 6,000,000 shares of common stock issued to a director for $0.0025 per share and $60,000 pursuant to the sale of 6,000,000 registered shares of common stock issued to 28 unaffiliated shareholders for $0.01 per share.

Subsequent to our July 31, 2008 year end, on September 2, 2008 we affected a 2 for 1 forward stock split of our authorized and issued outstanding common stock. Our authorized capital was not increased and remains at 75,000,000 shares of common stock and our outstanding share capital increased from 6,000,000 shares of common stock to 12,000,000 shares of common stock. This was further augmented by the private placement such that 12,700,000 shares were outstanding at September 19, 2008. All share and per share information has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the stock split.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our cash balance at July 31, 2008 was $49,754 with total assets being $54,504. If we experience a shortage of funds prior to generating revenues from operations we may utilize funds from our director, who has informally agreed to advance funds to allow us to pay for operating costs, however he has no formal commitment, arrangement or legal obligation to advance or loan funds to us. Management believes our current cash balance will be sufficient to fund our operations for the next twelve months.

Plan of Operation

We have completed Phase 1 of our exploration program and received the geologists recommendations.Due to the results of the geologist's report, the Company has decided not to pursue any further testing or exploration activity on this property and to not renew these mineral claims. As of September 1, 2008 these claims have expired.

We have included the geologists report on Phase 1 as Exhibit 99 to this annual report.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors

Barron Energy Inc. (formerly Nevwest Explorations Corp.) (An Exploration Stage Company) Las Vegas, NV

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Barron Energy Inc. (an exploration stage company) as of July 31, 2008 and 2007 and the related statements of expenses, stockholders equity, and cash flows for the year ended July 31, 2008, for the period from July 24,2007 (inception) through July 31,2007 and from July 24, 2007 (inception) through July 31, 2008. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit.

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 an audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit 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 Companys internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, 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 Barron Energy Inc. as of July 31, 2008 and 2007 and the results of operations and cash flows for the year then ended, for the periods from July 24, 2007 (inception) through July 31, 2007 and from July 24, 2007 (inception) through July 31, 2008, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

BARON ENERGY INC.(formerly Nevwest Exploration Corp.)(AN EXPLORATION STAGE COMPANY)NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Baron Energy Inc. (f/k/a Nevwest Explorations Corp.) (or Baron)was incorporated in Nevada on July 24, 2007. Baron is an Exploration Stage Company, as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No.7 Accounting and Reporting for Development Stage Enterprises.

Barons principal business is the acquisition and exploration of mineral resources.

Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share. The basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss adjusted on an "as if converted" basis, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus potential dilutive securities. For the year ended July 31, 2008, there were no potentially dilutive securities outstanding.

Cash and Cash Equivalents. For purposes of the statement of cash flows, Baron considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. As of July 31, 2008, cash consisted of funds in the Baron's bank account.

Mineral Property Costs. Baron has been in the exploration stage since its formation on July 24, 2007 and has not yet realized any revenues from its planned operations. It is primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mining properties. Mineral property acquisition and exploration costs are expensed as incurred. When it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves, the costs incurred to develop such property are capitalized. Such costs will be amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable reserve. If mineral properties are subsequently abandoned or impaired, any capitalized costs will be charged to operations.

Financial Instruments. Financial instruments, which include cash, accrued liabilities and due to related parties were estimated to approximate their carrying values due to the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments.



F-7

---

Income Taxes. Baron recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities based on differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to be recovered. Baron provides a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets for which it does not consider realization of such assets to be more likely than not.

Common Stock Split. On September 2, 2008, the Company effected a two-for-one stock split. All share and per share information has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the stock split.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements. Baron does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on their results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

Note 2. Income Taxes

Baron uses the liability method, where deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial and income tax reporting purposes. During fiscal 2007, Nevwest incurred a net loss and, therefore, has no tax liability. The net deferred tax asset generated by the loss carry-forward has been fully reserved. The cumulative net operating loss carry-forward is $20,496 at July 31, 2008, and will expire in 2028.

At July 31, 2008, deferred tax assets consisted of the following:

|Deferred Tax Asset     | $ | 6,969  |  
|---------------------- | - | ------ | -
|Valuation Allowance    |   | (6,969 | )
|Net Deferred Tax Asset | $ |       |  

Note 3. Common Stock

From inception (July 24, 2007) through July 31, 2008, Baron sold 6,000,000 shares of its common stock to its directors at $0.0025 per share, or $15,000 cash and 6,000,000 shares of its common stock to 28 unaffiliated investors at $0.01 per share, or $60,000 cash.

Effective September 2, 2008 the Company effected a forward stock spilt of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock on a two new for one old basis. Authorized capital remained at 75,000,000 common shares and par value remained at $.001 per share. These financial statements have been retroactively restated to reflect these changes.

Note 4. Subsequent Events

On August 15, 2008, Michael G Maguire, was appointed as vice-president, chief operating officer and as director of our company. He shall also serve as a member of the board of directors with

Albert Abah. Pursuant to the employment agreement, Baron issued 500,000 stock options that vest immediately and 1,500,000 options that vest ratably over three years.

On August 29, 2008 we completed a private placement of equity in the aggregate amount of $350,000. Pursuant to the terms of the offering, the Company sold 700,000 post-split shares of common stock at a price of $0.50 per share.

Effective September 2, 2008 the Company completed a forward stock spilt of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock on a two new for one old basis.

Also effective September 2, 2008, we have changed our name from Nevwest Explorations Corp. to Baron Energy, Inc. The change of name was approved by our directors and a majority of our shareholders.

On September 12, 2008, the Board of Directors of the Company appointed Lou Schiliro to a vacant seat on the Board of Directors. Additionally, the Company accepted the resignation of Albert Abah from all of his director and officer positions with the Company. Mr. Abah's resignation was not due to any disagreements, of any kind, with the Company. Upon Mr. Abah's resignation, the Board appointed Michael McGuire as the Company's Interim Chief Executive Officer, Interim Chief Financial Officer, and Interim Secretary.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Financial Disclosure

None.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We conducted an evaluation (the Evaluation), under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (Disclosure Controls) as of the end of the period covered by this report pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act. Based on this Evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our Disclosure Controls were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.

Changes in Internal Controls

We have also evaluated our internal controls for financial reporting, and there have been no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect those controls subsequent to the date of their last evaluation.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

Our management, including our CEO and CFO, does not expect that our Disclosure Controls and internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management or board override of the control.



21

---

The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Companys registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Managements report was not subject to attestation by the Companys registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only managements report in this annual report.

CEO and CFO Certifications

Appearing immediately following the Signatures section of this report there are Certifications of the CEO and the CFO. The Certifications are required in accordance with Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the Section 302 Certifications). This Item of this report, which you are currently reading, is the information concerning the Evaluation referred to in the Section 302 Certifications and this information should be read in conjunction with the Section 302 Certifications for a more complete understanding of the topics presented.
