PART I
Item 1. Business.
(a) General development of business. Hutton Investors Futures
Fund L.P. II (the "Partnership") is a limited partnership organized on March 31,
1987, under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act and commenced
trading on July 24, 1987. The Partnership engages in speculative trading of
commodity futures contracts and other commodity interests, including futures
contracts on United States Treasuries and other financial instruments, foreign
currencies and stock indices. Redemptions of Units of Limited Partnership
Interest in the Partnership ("Units") for the years ended December 31, 1996,
1995 and 1994 are reported in the Statements of Partners' Capital on page F-5
under "Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data."
The Partnership trades futures contracts on commodities on United States
and foreign commodity exchanges through a commodity brokerage account maintained
with its commodity broker, Smith Barney Inc. ("SB").
Smith Barney Futures Management Inc. acts as the general partner (the
"General Partner") of the Partnership. SB is an affiliate of the General
Partner.
Under the Limited Partnership Agreement of the Partnership (the "Limited
Partnership Agreement"), the General Partner has sole responsibility for the
management of the business and affairs of the Partnership, but may delegate
trading discretion to one or more trading advisors.
2
<PAGE>
As of December 31, 1996, the General Partner has entered into advisory
agreements (the "Management Agreements") with TrendLogic Associates Inc. and
with John W. Henry & Company, Inc. (collectively the "Advisors"). Two of the
principals of TrendLogic Associates, Inc., Mr. Paul E. Dean and Mr. Richard
Semels, are employees of SB. The Management Agreements provide that the Advisors
will have sole discretion in determining the investment of the assets of the
Partnership but that the Advisors will have no authority to select the commodity
broker through whom transactions will be executed.
The Management Agreements can be terminated by the General Partner at any
time for any reason whatsoever. The Advisors may terminate the Management
Agreements for any reason upon 30 days' notice to the General Partner. The
Advisors may also terminate the Agreements if the trading policies of the
Partnership are changed in a manner that the Advisor reasonably believes will
adversely affect the performance of its trading strategies.
Pursuant to the terms of the Management Agreements, the Partnership will
pay each Advisor an incentive fee, payable quarterly, equal to 20% of each
Advisor's Trading Profits.
Under the terms of a customer agreement between the Partnership and SB,
(the "Customer Agreement") the Partnership is obligated to pay commodity
brokerage commissions at $50 per round-turn futures transaction and $25 per
option transaction (inclusive of National Futures Association ("NFA"), floor
brokerage, exchange and clearing fees). The Customer Agreement between the
Partnership
3
<PAGE>
and SB gives the Partnership the legal right to net unrealized gains and losses.
In addition, the General Partner (through SB) invests approximately eighty
percent (80%) of the Partnership's assets in interest bearing U.S. Treasury
obligations (primarily U.S. Treasury Bills).
(b) Financial information about industry segments. The Partnership's
business consists of only one segment, speculative trading of commodity
interests. The Partnership does not engage in sales of goods or services. The
Partnership's net income (loss) from operations for the years ended December 31,
1996, 1995, 1994, 1993 and 1992 are set forth under "Item 6. Selected Financial
Data." The Partnership's capital at December 31, 1996 was $19,153,165.
(c) Narrative description of business.
See Paragraphs (a) and (b) above.
(i) through (x) - Not applicable.
(xi) through (xii) - Not applicable.
(xiii) - The Partnership has no employees.

(d) Financial Information About Foreign and Domestic Operations and Export
Sales. The Partnership does not engage in sales of goods or services, and

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations.
(1) Liquidity. The Partnership does not engage in sales of
goods or services. The Partnership's only assets are its equity in its commodity
futures trading account, consisting of cash and cash equivalents, and net
unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on open futures contracts. Approximately
80% of the Partnership's assets are maintained in interest bearing U.S. Treasury
obligations. Because of the low margin deposits normally required in commodity
futures trading, relatively small price movements may result in substantial
losses to the Partnership. Substantial losses resulting from such price
movements could lead to a material decrease in liquidity. To minimize this risk,
the Partnership follows certain policies including:
(a) Partnership funds are invested only in commodity interests which
are traded in sufficient volume to permit, in the opinion of the Advisors, ease
of taking and liquidating positions.
(b) The Partnership diversifies its positions among various
commodities. The Partnership does not initiate additional positions in a
commodity if such additional positions would result in a net long or short
position in such commodity requiring as margin more than 15% of the net assets
of the Partnership.
(c) The Partnership does not initiate additional positions in any
commodity if such additional positions would result in aggregate positions for
all commodities requiring as margin more than 66 2/3% of the Partnership's net
assets.
7
<PAGE>
(d) The Partnership may occasionally accept delivery of a commodity.
Unless such delivery is disposed of promptly by retendering the warehouse
receipt representing the delivery to the appropriate clearing house, the
physical commodity position is fully hedged.
(e) The Partnership does not employ the trading technique commonly
known as "pyramiding", in which the speculator uses unrealized profits on
existing positions as margin for the purchase or sale of additional positions in
the same or related commodities.
(f) The Partnership does not utilize borrowings except short-term
borrowings if the Partnership takes delivery of any cash commodities.
(g) The Advisors may, from time to time, employ trading strategies
such as spreads or straddles on behalf of the Partnership. The term "spread" or
"straddle" describes a commodity futures trading strategy involving the
simultaneous buying and selling of futures contracts on the same commodity but
involving different delivery dates or markets and in which the trader expects to
earn a profit from a widening or narrowing of the difference between the prices
of the two contracts.
(h) The Partnership does not trade on a regular basis in forward
contracts on foreign currencies. Such transactions may be effected only in an
attempt to hedge currency risks resulting from trading on foreign exchanges or
to limit or protect profits on existing positions in futures contracts on
foreign currencies in situations in which such positions cannot be closed out
due to market
8
<PAGE>
conditions. Such transactions will only be effected with banks having a minimum
combined capital and surplus of $100,000,000.
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. (See
also Item 8. "Financial Statement and Supplementary Data.," for further
information on financial instrument risk included in the notes to financial
statements.)
Other than the risks inherent in commodity futures trading, the
Partnership knows of no trends, demands, commitments, events or uncertainties
which will result in or which are reasonably likely to result in the
Partnership's liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way. The
Limited Partnership Agreement requires dissolution of the Partnership under
certain circumstances as defined in the
9
<PAGE>
Limited Partnership Agreement including, but not limited to, a decrease in the
net asset value of a Unit to less than $500 as of the close of business on any
business day, or a decrease in the aggregate net assets of the Partnership to
less than $1,000,000, or December 31, 2007.
(2) Capital resources. (a) The Partnership has made no material
commitments for capital expenditures as of the end of the latest fiscal period.
(b) The Partnership's capital consists of the capital contributions
of the Partners as increased or decreased by gains or losses on trading of
commodity interests, expenses, interest income, redemptions of Units and
distributions of profits, if any. Gains or losses on commodity futures trading
cannot be predicted. Market movements in commodities are dependent upon
fundamental and technical factors which the Partnership's Advisors may or may
not be able to identify. Partnership expenses consist of, among other things,
commissions and incentive fees. The level of these expenses is dependent upon
the level of trading and the ability of the Advisors to identify and take
advantage of price movements in the commodity markets, in addition to the level
of net assets maintained. No forecast can be made as to the level of redemptions
in any given period. For the year ended December 31, 1996, 215 Units were
redeemed for a total of $880,296. For the year ended December 31, 1995, 235
Units were redeemed for a total of $829,493 which includes the General Partner
redemption representing 31 Unit equivalents totaling $113,858. For the year
10
<PAGE>
ended December 1994, 589 Units were redeemed for a total of $1,591,200 which
includes the General Partner redemption representing 229 Unit equivalents
totaling $615,586.
(c) Results of Operations. For the year ended December 31, 1996, the
net asset value per Unit increased 29.1% from $3,672.84 to $4,742.06. For the
year ended December 31, 1995, the net asset value per Unit increased 41.8% from
$2,590.60 to $3,672.84. For the year ended December 31, 1994, the net asset
value per Unit decreased 4.7% from $2,717.36 to $2,590.60.
The Partnership experienced net trading gains of $5,334,997 before
commissions and expenses for the year ended December 31, 1996. These gains were
primarily attributable to the trading of commodity futures in interest rates,
metals, currencies and energy and were partially offset by losses in the trading
of agricultural products and indices.
The Partnership experienced net trading gains of $5,271,863 before
commissions and expenses for the year ended December 31, 1995. Realized trading
gains of $5,587,098 were primarily attributable to the trading of commodity
futures in currencies, interest rates and agricultural products. These realized
gains were partially offset by realized trading losses incurred in the trading
of precious metals and energy commodity futures.
The Partnership experienced net trading losses of $181,265 before
commissions and expenses for the year ended December 31, 1994. Realized trading
losses of $83,821 were primarily attributable to net losses incurred in the
trading of precious metals, and stock index
11
<PAGE>
commodity futures. These realized trading losses were partially offset by
realized trading gains incurred in the trading of financial, energy,
agricultural and industrial commodity futures.
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 those price trends correctly. 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. The
Advisors' technical trading methods do not generally take into account such
fundamental factors. To the extent that market trends exist and the Advisors are
able to identify them, the Partnership expects to increase capital through
operations.

31, 1996 and 1995, and the related statements of income and expenses and
partners' capital for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the management of the General
Partner. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. 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 the
management of the General Partner, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide 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 Hutton Investors Futures Fund
L.P. II as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of its operations for
the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, in conformity with generally

Hutton Investors
Futures Fund L.P. II
Notes to Financial Statements
1. Partnership Organization:
Hutton Investors Futures Fund L.P. II (the "Partnership") is a limited
partnership which was organized under the partnership laws of the State of
Delaware on March 31, 1987 to engage in the speculative trading of a
diversified portfolio of commodity interests including futures contracts,
options and forward contracts. The commodity interests that are traded by the
Partnership are volatile and involve a high degree of market risk. The
Partnership was authorized to sell 30,000 Units of Limited Partnership
Interest ("Units") during the public offering period.
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 (see
Note 3b). The General Partner and each limited partner share in the profits
and losses of the Partnership in proportion to the amount of partnership
interest owned by each except that no limited partner shall be liable for
obligations of the Partnership in excess of his initial capital contribution
and profits, if any, net of distributions.
The Partnership will be liquidated upon the first to occur of the following:
December 31, 2007; the net asset value of a Unit decreases to less than $500
per unit; the aggregate net assets of the Partnership decline to less than
$1,000,000; or under certain other circumstances as defined in the Limited
Partnership Agreement.
2. Accounting Policies:
a.All commodity interests (including derivative financial instruments and
derivative commodity instruments) are used for trading purposes. The
commodity interests are recorded on trade date and open contracts are
recorded in the statement of financial condition at market value for those
commodity interests for which market quotations are readily available or at
fair value on the last business day of the year. Investments in commodity
interests denominated in foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars
at the exchange rates prevailing on the last business day of the year.
Realized gain (loss) and changes in unrealized values on commodity
interests are recognized in the period in which the contract is closed or
the changes occur and are included in net gains (losses) on trading of
commodity interests.
F-6
<PAGE>
Hutton Investors
Futures Fund L.P. II
Notes to Financial Statements
b.Commission charges to open and close futures contracts are expensed at the
time the positions are opened.
c.Income taxes have not been provided as each partner is individually liable
for the taxes, if any, on his share of the Partnership's income and
expenses.
d.The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of 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.
3. Agreements:
a.Management Agreements:
The General Partner has Management Agreements with Trendlogic Associates
and John W. Henry & Company, Inc., (individually an "Advisor" or
collectively, the "Advisors"). Two of the principals of Trendlogic
Associates, Mr. Paul E. Dean and Mr. Richard Semels, are employees of SB.
The Agreements provide that the Advisors have sole discretion to determine
the investment of the assets of the Partnership, subject to the
Partnership's trading policies set forth in the Partnership's prospectus.
Pursuant to each Management Agreement, each Advisor is entitled to an
incentive fee, payable quarterly, equal to 20% of the Trading Profits on
the assets under such Advisor's management.
b.Customer Agreement:
The Partnership has entered into a Customer Agreement, which has been
assigned to SB, whereby SB provides services which include, among other
things, the execution of transactions for the Partnership's account in
accordance with orders placed by the Advisors. The Partnership is obligated
to pay brokerage commissions to SB at $50 per roundturn futures transaction
and $25 per option transaction which includes floor brokerage, exchange,
clearing and NFA fees. All of the Partnerships' assets are deposited in the
Partnership's account at SB. The Partnership's cash is deposited by SB in
segregated bank accounts as required by Commodity Futures Trading
Commission regulations. At December 31, 1996 and 1995, the amount of cash
held for margin requirements was $1,888,350 and $2,387,095, respectively.
The Customer Agreement provides that approximately 80% of the Partnership's
assets be maintained in interest bearing U.S. Treasury obligations,
including assets to be utilized as margin for commodities positions. The
Customer Agreement between the Partnership and SB gives the Partnership the
legal right to net unrealized gains and losses.

4. Trading Activities:
The Partnership was formed for the purpose of trading contracts in a variety
of commodity interests, including derivative financial instruments and
derivative commodity instruments. The results of the Partnership's trading
activity are shown in the statement of income and expenses.
All of the commodity interests owned by the Partnership are held for trading
purposes. The fair value of these commodity interests, including options
thereon, at December 31,1996 and 1995 was $474,335 and $835,706, respectively
and the average fair value during the years then ended, based on monthly

7. Financial Instrument Risk:
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, to purchase or sell other
financial instruments at specific terms at specified future dates, or, in the
case of derivative commodity instruments, to have a reasonable possibility to
be settled in cash or with another financial instrument. These instruments
may be traded on an exchange or over-the-counter ("OTC"). Exchange traded
instruments are standardized and include futures and certain option
contracts. OTC contracts are negotiated between contracting parties and
include forwards and certain options. Each of these instruments is subject to
various risks similar to those related to the underlying financial
instruments including market and credit risk. In general, the risks
associated with OTC contracts are greater than those associated with exchange
traded instruments because of the greater risk of default by the counterparty
to an OTC contract.
Market risk is the potential for changes in the value of the financial
instruments traded by the Partnership due to market changes, including
interest and foreign exchange rate movements and fluctuations in commodity or
security prices. Market risk is directly impacted by the volatility and
liquidity in the markets in which the related underlying assets are traded.
Credit risk is the possibility that a loss may occur due to the failure of a
counterparty to perform according to the terms of a contract. Credit risk
with respect to exchange traded instruments is reduced to the extent that an
exchange or clearing organization acts as a counterparty to the transactions.
The Partnership's risk of loss in the event of counterparty default is
typically limited to the amounts recognized in the statement of financial
condition and not represented by the contract or notional amounts of the
instruments. The Partnership has concentration risk because the sole
counterparty or broker with respect to the Partnership's assets is SB.

Notes to Financial Statements
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. These monitoring systems allow the General Partner to
statistically analyze actual trading results with risk adjusted performance
indicators and correlation statistics.In addition, on-line monitoring systems
provide account analysis of futures, forwards and options positions by
sector, margin requirements, gain and loss transactions and collateral
positions.
