                                   (Unaudited)

General

      Shearson Lehman Select Advisors Futures Fund L.P. (the "Partnership") was
organized under the laws of the State of Delaware on February 10, 1987. The
Partnership engages in the speculative trading of commodity futures contracts,
including forward contracts on foreign currencies, commodity options, and
commodity interests, including futures contracts on U.S. Treasury Bills and
other financial instruments, foreign currencies and stock indices. The
Partnership commenced trading July 1, 1987.

      Smith Barney Futures Management Inc. acts as the general partner (the
"General Partner") of the Partnership. Smith Barney Inc. ("SB"), an affiliate of
the General Partner, acts as commodity broker for the Partnership. All trading
decisions are being made for the Partnership by John W. Henry & Co., Sunrise
Capital Management, Inc. and Gill Capital Management (collectively, the
"Advisors").

      The accompanying financial statements are unaudited but, in the opinion of
management, include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the Partnership's financial
condition at June 30, 1995 and the results of its operations for the three and
six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994. These financial statements present the
results of interim periods and do not include all disclosures normally provided
in annual financial statements. It is suggested that these financial statements
be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the
Partnership's annual report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission for the year ended December 31, 1994.

Subsequent Events

      Effective July 1, 1995, Gill Capital Management was terminated as an
Advisor for the Partnership.

      Effective July 1, 1995 brokerage commissions have been reduced to .667% of
month-end net assets (8% per year) from .833% of month-end net assets (10% per
year).

Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and 
          Results of Operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

      The Partnership does not engage in the sale of goods or services. Its only
assets are its equity in its commodity futures trading account, consisting of
cash and cash equivalents, net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on open
futures contracts, and interest receivable. Because of the low margin deposits
normally required in commodity futures trading, relatively small price movements
may result in substantial losses to the Partnership. While substantial losses
could lead to a decrease in liquidity, no such losses occurred during the second
quarter of 1995.

      The Partnership's capital consists of the capital contributions of the
partners as increased or decreased by gains or losses on commodity futures
trading, expenses, interest income, redemptions of Units and distributions of
profits, if any.

      For the six months ended June 30, 1995, Partnership capital increased 7.9%
from $6,129,708 to $6,613,473. This increase was attributable to net income from
operations of $1,533,305 which was partially offset by the redemption of 551
limited partnership Units resulting in an outflow of $1,049,540 for the six
months ended June 30, 1995. Future redemptions can impact the amount of funds
available for investments in commodity contract positions in subsequent periods.

Results of Operations

      During the Partnership's second quarter of 1995, the net asset value per
Unit increased 2.6% from $1,886.14 to $1,936.03, as compared to the second
quarter of 1994 when the Net Asset Value per Unit increased 4.7%. The
Partnership experienced a net trading gain before commissions and expenses in
the second quarter of 1995 of approximately $399,000. Gains were recognized in
the trading of commodity futures in interest rates and energy products. These
gains were partially offset by losses recognized in the trading of commodity
futures in agricultural products, currencies, precious metals and stock indices.

      Commodity futures markets are highly volatile. Broad price fluctuations
and rapid inflation increase the risks involved in commodity trading, but also
increase the possibility of profit. The profitability of the Partnership depends
on the existence of major price trends and the ability of the Advisors to
identify correctly those price trends. These price trends are influenced by,
among other things, changing supply and demand relationships, weather,
governmental, agricultural, commercial and trade programs 

                                       7
<PAGE>   8
and policies, national and international political and economic events and
changes in interest rates. To the extent that market trends exist and the
Advisors are able to identify them, the Partnership expects to increase capital
through operations.
        
      Interest income on 70% of the Partnership's daily average equity was
earned on the monthly average 13-week U.S. Treasury bill yield. Interest income
for the three and six months ended June 30, 1995 increased by approximately
$10,000 and $25,000, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in
1994. The increase in interest income is primarily attributable to an increase
in interest rates during the six months ended June 30, 1995 as compared to the
corresponding period in 1994.

      Commissions are calculated on the adjusted net asset value on the last day
of each month and, therefore, vary according to trading performance and
redemptions. Accordingly, they must be compared in relation to the fluctuations
in the monthly net asset values. Commissions for the three and six months ended
June 30, 1995 decreased by approximately $42,000 and $95,000, respectively, as
compared to the corresponding periods in 1994.

      All trading decisions for the Partnership are currently being made by the
Advisors. Management fees are calculated as a percentage of the Partnership's
net asset value as of the end of each month and are affected by trading
performance and redemptions. Management fees for the three and six months ended
June 30, 1995 decreased by approximately $20,000, and $46,000, respectively, as
compared to the corresponding periods in 1994.

      Incentive fees paid by the Partnership are based on the net trading
profits of the Partnership as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement.
Trading performance for the three and six months ended June 30, 1995 resulted in
an increase in incentive fees of approximately $11,000 and $31,000,respectively,
as compared to the corresponding periods in 1994.
