NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 1999
(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.
Salomon Smith Barney Futures Management LLC acts as the general partner
(the "General Partner") of the Partnership. The General Partner changed its form
of organization from a corporation to a limited liability company. The
Partnership's commodity broker is Salomon Smith Barney Inc. ("SSB"). SSB is an
affiliate of the General Partner. The General Partner is wholly owned by Salomon
Smith Barney Holdings Inc. ("SSBH"), which is the sole owner of SSB. SSBH is a
wholly owned subsidiary of Citigroup Inc. All trading decisions are made for the
Partnership 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 September 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998 (unaudited) and the
results of its operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1999
and 1998. 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, 1998.
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 SSB 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, if applicable, at September 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998 was $31,513
and $2,163,400, respectively, and the average fair value during the nine and
twelve months then ended, based on monthly calculation, was $1,312,198 and
$1,359,853, respectively.
6
<PAGE>
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
may 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, through physical delivery 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 SSB.
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.

<PAGE>
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 September 30, 1999, the notional or contractual amounts of the
Partnership's commitment to purchase and sell these instruments was $161,405,441
and $127,066,879, respectively, as detailed below. All of these instruments
mature within one year of September 30, 1999. However, due to the nature of the
Partnership's business, these instruments may not be held to maturity. At
September 30, 1999, the fair value of the Partnership's derivatives, including
options thereon, if applicable, was $31,513, 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 constituted
approximately 82% of the Partnership's assets at September 30, 1999) 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 third quarter of 1999.
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 nine months ended September 30, 1999, Partnership capital
decreased 7.4% from $22,978,774 to $21,281,123. This decrease was attributable
to net loss from operations of $881,606 coupled with the redemption of 130 units
resulting in an outflow of $816,045 for the nine months ended September 30,
1999. Future redemptions can impact the amount of funds available for investment
in commodity contract positions in subsequent months.
Risk of Computer System Failure (Year 2000 Issue)
The Year 2000 issue is the result of existing computers in
many businesses using only two digits to identify a year in the date field.
These computers and programs, often referred to as "information technology,"
were designed and developed without considering the impact of the upcoming
change in the century. If not corrected, many computer applications could fail
or create erroneous results at the Year 2000. Such systems and processes are
dependent on correctly identifying dates in the next century.
The General Partner administers the business of the
Partnership through various systems and processes maintained by SSBH and SSB. In
addition, the operation of the Partnership is dependent on the capability of the
Partnership's Advisors, the brokers and exchanges through which the Advisors
trade, and other third parties to prepare adequately for the Year 2000 impact on
their systems and processes. The Partnership itself has no systems or
information technology applications relevant to its operations.
10
<PAGE>
The General Partner, SSB, SSBH and their parent organization Citigroup
Inc. have undertaken a comprehensive, firm-wide evaluation of both internal and
external systems (systems related to third parties) to determine the specific
modifications needed to prepare for the year 2000. The combined Year 2000
program in SSB is expected to cost approximately $140 million over the four
years from 1996 through 1999, and has involved over 450 people. As of June 30,
1999, SSB has completed all compliance and certification work.
The systems and components supporting the General Partner's business
that require remediation have been brought into Year 2000 compliance. Final
testing and certification was completed as of June 30, 1999.
This expenditure and the General Partner's resources dedicated to the
preparation for Year 2000 do not and will not have a material impact on the
operation or results of the Partnership.
The General Partner has received statements from the Advisors
that they have completed their Year 2000 remediation programs.
The most likely and most significant risk to the Partnership
associated with the lack of Year 2000 readiness is the failure of outside
organizations, including the commodities exchanges, clearing organizations, or
regulators with which the Partnership interacts to resolve their Year 2000
issues in a timely manner. This risk could involve the inability to determine
the value of the Partnership at some point in time and would make effecting
purchases or redemptions of Units in the Partnership infeasible until such
valuation was determinable.
SSB has successfully participated in industry-wide testing including:
The Streetwide Beta Testing organized by the Securities Industry Association
(SIA), a government securities clearing test with the Federal Reserve Bank of
New York, The Depository Trust Company, and The Bank of New York, and the
Futures Industry Association participants test. The firm also participated in
the streetwide testing that was conducted from March through May 1999.
It is possible that problems may occur that would require some time to
repair. Moreover, it is possible that problems will occur outside SSBH and the
General Partner for which SSBH or the General Partner could experience a
secondary effect. Consequently, SSBH and the General Partner have prepared
comprehensive, written contingency plans so that alternative procedures and a
framework for critical decisions are defined before any potential crisis occurs.
The goal of year 2000 contingency planning is a set of alternate
procedures to be used in the event of a critical system failure by a supplier or
counterparty. Planning work was completed in January 1999, and testing of
alternative procedures will be completed in the third and fourth quarters of
1999.
11
<PAGE>
Results of Operations
During the Partnership's third quarter of 1999, the net asset value per
unit decreased 8.8% from $6,562.24 to $5,982.89 as compared to an increase of
20.8% in the third quarter of 1998. The Partnership experienced a net trading
loss before brokerage commissions and related fees in the third quarter of 1999
of $2,047,971. Losses were primarily attributable to the trading of commodity
futures in currencies, U.S. and non-U.S. interest rates, grains, livestock,
metals and indices and were partially offset by gains in energy and softs. The
Partnership experienced a net trading gain before commissions and related fees
in the third quarter of 1998 of $4,437,843. Gains were primarily attributable to
the trading of commodity futures in currencies, livestock, U.S. and non-U.S.
interest rates, grains and indices and were partially offset by losses in
metals, softs and energy.
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. 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 nine
months ended September 30, 1999, decreased by $1,748 and $35,704, respectively,
as compared to the corresponding periods in 1998. Fluctuations in interest
income are due to the percentage of U.S. Treasury Bills to assets held by the
Partnership varying as a result of the effects of trading performance on
Partnership equity.
Brokerage commissions are based on the number of trades executed by the
Advisors. Accordingly, they must be analyzed in relation to the fluctuations in
the monthly net asset values. Brokerage commissions and fees for the three
months ended September 30, 1999 decreased by $6,403, and for the nine months
ended September 30, 1999 increased by $13,049 as compared to the corresponding
periods in 1998.
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 nine
months ended September 30, 1999 resulted in incentive fees of $0 and $222,126,
respectively. Trading performance for the three and nine months ended September
30, 1998 resulted in incentive fees of $433,960 and $441,174, respectively.
12
<PAGE>
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures of Market Risk
The Partnership is a speculative commodity pool. The market sensitive
instruments held by it are acquired for speculative trading purposes, and all or
substantially all of the Partnership's assets are subject to the risk of trading
loss. Unlike an operating company, the risk of market sensitive instruments is
integral, not incidental, to the Partnership's main line of business.
Market movements result in frequent changes in the fair market value of
the Partnership's open positions and, consequently, in its earnings and cash
flow. The Partnership's market risk is influenced by a wide variety of factors,
including the level and volatility of interest rates, exchange rates, equity
price levels, the market value of financial instruments and contracts, the
diversification effects among the Partnership's open positions and the liquidity
of the markets in which it trades.
The Partnership rapidly acquires and liquidates both long and short
positions in a wide range of different markets. Consequently, it is not possible
to predict how a particular future market scenario will affect performance, and
the Partnership's past performance is not necessarily indicative of its future
results.
Value at Risk is a measure of the maximum amount which the Partnership
could reasonably be expected to lose in a given market sector. However, the
inherent uncertainty of the Partnership's speculative trading and the recurrence
in the markets traded by the Partnership of market movements far exceeding
expectations could result in actual trading or non-trading losses far beyond the
indicated Value at Risk or the Partnership's experience to date (i.e., "risk of
ruin"). In light of the foregoing as well as the risks and uncertainties
intrinsic to all future projections, the inclusion of the quantification
included in this section should not be considered to constitute any assurance or
representation that the Partnership's losses in any market sector will be
limited to Value at Risk or by the Partnership's attempts to manage its market
risk.

<PAGE>
The following table indicates the trading Value at Risk associated with
the Partnership's open positions by market category as of September 30, 1999.
All open position trading risk exposures of the Partnership have been included
in calculating the figures set forth below. As of September 30, 1999, the
Partnership's total capitalization was $21,281,123. There has been no material
change in the trading Value at Risk information previously disclosed in the Form
