HUTTON INVESTORS FUTURES FUND L.P. II
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 1997
(Unaudited)
1. 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 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 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 & Company, Inc. and
TrendLogic Associates (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, 1997 and the results of its operations for the three and
six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996. 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, 1996.
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.

========= ========= ========= =========
3. 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.
The Customer Agreement between the Partnership and SB gives the
Partnership the legal right to net unrealized gains and losses.
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 June 30, 1997 was $691,215 and the average fair value during the six
months then ended, based on monthly calculation, was $685,366.
4. 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
6
<PAGE>
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.
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.
The notional or contractual amounts of these instruments, while not
recorded in the financial statements, reflect the extent of the Partnership's
involvement in these instruments. At June 30, 1997, the notional or contractual
amounts of the Partnership's commitment to purchase and sell these instruments
was $175,830,297 and $75,341,734, respectively, as detailed below. All of these
instruments mature within one year of June 30, 1997. However, due to the nature
of the Partnership's business, these instruments may not be held to maturity. At
June 30, 1997, the fair value of the Partnership's derivatives, including
options thereon, was $691,215, as detailed below.

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 (such as U.S. Treasury Bills, which constitutes
approximately 76% of the Partnership's assets at June 30, 1997) 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 second quarter of 1997.
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, 1997, Partnership capital decreased 1.3%
from $19,153,165 to $18,902,899. This decrease was attributable to the
redemption of 75 Units resulting in an outflow of $367,398 which was partially
offset by net income from operations of $117,132 for the six months ended June
30, 1997. 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 second quarter of 1997, the net asset value per
Unit decreased 4.3% from $4,985.31 to $4,768.64, as compared to the second
quarter of 1996 in which the net asset value per Unit increased 5.1%. The
Partnership experienced a net trading loss before commissions and expenses in
the second quarter of 1997 of $851,521. Losses were recognized in the trading of
commodity futures in currencies, U.S. and non U.S. interest rates and energy
products and were partially offset by gains recognized in metals, softs,
indices, grains and livestock. The Partnership experienced a net trading gain
before commissions and expenses in the second quarter of 1996 of $935,547. Gains
were recognized in the trading of currencies, agricultural products, energy
products and metals and were partially offset by losses in indices and interest
rates.
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
9
<PAGE>
those price trends. 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 for the three and six months
ended June 30, 1997 increased by $45,451 and $83,735, respectively, as compared
to the corresponding periods in 1996. This increase in interest income was
attributable to an increase in Partnership capital as a result of positive
trading performance which was partially offset by redemptions during 1996 and
through the second quarter of 1997.
Brokerage commissions are based on the number of trades executed by the
Advisors. Brokerage commissions and clearing fees for the three and six months
ended June 30, 1997 increased by $49,968 and $29,054, respectively, as compared
to the corresponding periods in 1996.
Incentive fees are based on the new trading profits generated by each
Advisor as defined in the advisory agreements between the Partnership, the
General Partner and each Advisor. Trading performance for the three and six
months ended June 30, 1997 resulted in incentive fees of $4,111 and $202,238,
respectively. Trading performance for the three and six months ended June 30,
1996 resulted in incentive fees of $119,987 and $157,753, respectively.
