General

         Hutton Investors Futures Fund L.P. II (the "Partnership") is a limited
partnership, organized on March 31, 1987 under the partnership laws of the State
of Delaware, to engage in the speculative trading of commodity futures contracts
and other commodity interests, including futures and option contracts on U.S.
Treasuries and other financial instruments, foreign currencies and stock
indices. The commodity interests that are traded by the Partnership are volatile
and involve a high degree of market risk. The Partnership commenced operations
on July 24, 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 for the Partnership are made by John W. Henry & Co., Inc. and
TrendLogic Associates, Inc. (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 March 31, 1996 and the results of its operations for the three
months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995. 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, 1995.

         Due to the nature of commodity trading, the results of operations for
the interim periods presented should not be considered indicative of the results
that may be expected for the entire year.

only assets are its equity in its commodity futures trading account, consisting
of cash and cash equivalents (such as U.S. Treasury Bills, which constitutes
approximately 75% of the Partnership's assets at March 31, 1996) and net
unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on open futures contracts. 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 substantial decrease in liquidity, no such
losses occurred in the Partnership's first quarter of 1996.

         The Partnership is party to financial instruments with off-balance
sheet risk, including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity
instruments, in the normal course of its business. These financial instruments
include forwards, futures and options, whose value is based upon an underlying
asset, index, or reference rate, and generally represent future commitments to
exchange currencies or cash flows, or to purchase or sell other financial
instruments at specified terms at specified future dates. Each of these
instruments is subject to various risks similar to those relating to the
underlying financial instruments including market and credit risk. The General
Partner monitors and controls the Partnership's risk exposure on a daily basis
through financial, credit and risk management monitoring systems and,
accordingly believes that it has effective procedures for evaluating and
limiting the credit and market risks to which the Partnership is subject.

         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 three months ended March 31, 1996, Partnership capital
increased 9.4% from $15,624,256 to $15,771,445. This increase was attributable
to net income from operations of $357,576 which was partially offset by the
redemption of 56 Units resulting in an outflow of $210,387 for the three months
ended March 31, 1996. Future redemptions can impact the amount of funds
available for investment in commodity contract positions in subsequent months.

Results of Operations

         During the Partnership's first quarter of 1996, the net asset value per
Unit decreased 2.3% from $3,672.84 to $3,756.90, as compared to the first
quarter of 1995 in which the net asset value per Unit increased 28.6%. The
Partnership experienced a net trading gain before commissions and expenses in
the first quarter of 1996 of $401,341. Gains were recognized in the trading of
commodity futures in interest rates and currencies and were partially offset by
losses recognized in stock indices, agricultural products, energy products, and
precious metals. The Partnership experienced a net trading gain before
commissions and expenses in the first quarter of 1995 of $3,689,269. Gains were
realized in the trading of interest rates, currencies, stock indices,
agricultural products and precious metals commodity futures and were partially
offset by losses realized in energy products.

         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 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 earned on U.S. Treasury Bills increased by $16,752 for
the three months ended March 31, 1996, as compared to the corresponding period
in 1995. The increase in interest income is primarily due to an increase in
Partnership capital as a result of a 12.8% increase in net asset value from the
first quarter of 1995 to the first quarter of 1996. This increase in net asset
value was partially offset by the net affect of redemptions coupled with a
decrease in interest rates in the first quarter of 1996 as compared to the
corresponding period in 1995.

         Brokerage commissions are based on the number of trades executed by the
Advisors. Brokerage commissions and clearing fees for the three months ended
March 31, 1996 increased by $7,420, as compared to the corresponding period in
1995.

         Incentive fees are based on the new appreciation generated by each
Advisor as defined in the advisory agreements between the Partnership, the
General Partner and each Advisor. Trading performance for the three months ended
March 31, 1996 and 1995 resulted in incentive fees of $37,766 and $347,390,
respectively.
