Dear Shareholder:

     We are pleased to provide the semi-annual report for the Managed Municipals
Portfolio II Inc. ("Portfolio") for the period ended February 29, 2000. Over the
six months covered by this report, the Portfolio distributed income dividends
totaling $0.30 per share. The table below shows the annualized distribution rate
and six-month total return based on the Portfolio's February 29, 2000 net asset
value ("NAV") per share and its New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") closing price.1

      $10.92 (NAV)                   5.49%                        (0.25)%

     In comparison, general closed-end municipal bond funds posted an average
total return based on NAV of negative 0.58% for the same time period, as
reported by Lipper, Inc. (Lipper, Inc. is a nationally recognized


- ----------
1 The NAV is calculated by taking the closing value of all securities held by
  the Portfolio (plus cash) from total liabilities and dividing the result
  (total net assets) by the total number of shares outstanding. The NAV
  fluctuates with the changes in the market price of the securities in which the
  Portfolio had invested. However, the price at which the investors buys or
  sells shares of the Portfolio is at market (NYSE) price as determined by
  supply and demand.

2 Total returns are based on changes in net asset value ("NAV") and the market
  value, respectively. Total returns assume the reinvestment of all dividends
  and/or capital gains distributions in additional shares. Annualized
  distribution rate is the Portfolio's current monthly income dividend rate,
  annualized, and then divided by the NAV or the market value noted in this
  report. The annualized distribution rate assumes a current monthly income
  dividend rate of $0.050 for twelve months. This rate is as of March 30, 2000
  and is subject to change. The important difference between a total return and
  an annualized distribution rate is that the total return takes into
  consideration a number of factors including the fluctuation of the NAV or the
  market value during the period reported. The NAV fluctuation includes the
  effects of unrealized appreciation or depreciation in the Portfolio.
  Accordingly, since an annualized distribution rate only reflects the current
  monthly income dividend rate annualized, it should not be used as the sole
  indicator to judge the return you receive from your Portfolio investment. Past
  performance is not indicative of future results.

organization that reports on mutual fund total return performance and

similar investment objectives. Lipper peer group averages include reinvested
dividends and capital gains, if any, and exclude sales charges.)

Special Shareholder Notice

     We are pleased to report that we have continued our effort of reducing the
Portfolio's shares' discount to NAV. This program, which commenced on July 27,
1999, is believed to be an opportunity to take advantage of market price
fluctuations with the objective of offering long-term value to the Portfolio's
shareholders. The Portfolio intends to continue to purchase shares of its stock
in the open market at such times, prices and amounts deemed advisable and
subsequently retire them.

     This repurchase program has added liquidity to the market for the benefit
of investors who wish to sell their shares, while also seeking to benefit
current shareholders by increasing the Portfolio's shares' NAV. Since the
inception of the program, the Portfolio has repurchased and retired 765,500
shares with an average buyback price of $9.42. As of February 29, 2000, this
repurchase program has increased the Portfolio's shares' NAV by over $0.1130 per
share and accounted for approximately 1.00% of the Portfolio's shares' total
return when measured by NAV.

Municipal Bond Market Update

     In our view, bond yields are high enough to adequately reflect the risk of
slightly higher inflation. The period covered by this report was marked by
continued robust U.S. economic growth, historically low inflation and low
unemployment.

     On February 2, 2000, the Federal Reserve Board ("Fed") raised interest
rates for a fourth time in less than eight months, seeking to help reduce
inflationary pressures and slow down the nation's rapidly growing economy.3
Perhaps more significant than the Fed's recent policy decisions was its
accompanying statement that rapid growth could foster inflationary imbalances
that might undermine the economy's record economic expansion. We believe that
this vigilance may hint at a slightly more aggressive approach by the Fed in the
months ahead. However, in our view, bond yields are high enough to adequately
reflect the risk of slightly higher inflation. Indeed, we think that bond yields
may be near their peak.


- ----------
3 On Tuesday, March 21, 2000 after this letter was written, the Fed raised
  interest rates 0.25%.

                                       2
<PAGE>

     Also, we think performance in the bond market during the period has been a
direct result of Fed decisions. While presumably aimed at the bull market in
stocks, the bond market has been negatively impacted on fears of further Fed
rate increases. We believe the current lack of inflationary data defies a
historically tight labor market and shows the incredible influence of technology
and the power of global pricing constraints.

     The bond market had a tough time in 1999. Tax-loss selling and asset
allocation shifts out of municipal securities precipitated massive outflows in
the fourth quarter, prompting bond funds to sell their municipal bond holdings.
This drove yields even higher and sent the net asset values of many funds lower,
accelerating outflows and leaving bond dealers reluctant to hold municipal
securities. Additionally, the bond market has suffered in recent months from
uncertainty over the outlook for future Fed monetary policy, given the rise of
the stock market and the higher consumer demand at the end of 1999. Also, we
have noted that supply in the new-issue market is down substantially from last
year.

     These factors, in addition to the considerable momentum going into 2000,
may mean that there is less financial restraint in the economy than previously
believed. The pace of demand is surpassing even the rosiest assessments of the
economy's speed limit, threatening to bring inflation back and underscoring the
need for Fed vigilance and restraint.

     Under "normal" market conditions, municipal investors pay for the tax- free
income benefits by getting a lower return. Today, however, investors are saving
on taxes without sacrificing returns. It is possible to buy double- and
triple-A-rated bonds yielding nearly 100% or more of similar maturity U.S.
Treasury bonds, well above the historical average of roughly 80%. We think these
yields represent extraordinarily good value for municipal securities.

Investment Strategy

     The Portfolio seeks as high a level of current income exempt from federal
income taxes as is consistent with the preservation of principal.4

     The Portfolio focused on transportation bonds (15.1%), hospital bonds
(10.7%) and education bonds (8.9%). At the end of February, the Portfolio's
weighted average maturity was approximately 21.0 years. As of February 29, 2000,
approximately 84.1% of the Portfolio's holdings

  Minimum Tax ("AMT").

were rated investment grade5 by either Standard & Poor's Ratings Group
or Moody's Investors Service, Inc., with about 43.2% of the Portfolio
invested in AAA/Aaa bonds, the highest possible rating.

     While no guarantees can be made, our belief that municipal securities are
undervalued has led us to rebalance the Portfolio to capitalize on what we
believe will be a future bullish trend. In general, this means buying bonds
carrying maturities of 20 years or longer, with solid credit ratings and trading
below fair market value in price. We are targeting, among others, general
obligation bonds and high-grade revenue credits such as water, sewer and
toll-road bonds.

     Our investment strategy for the Portfolio has been to maximize our dividend
yield. In our view, the municipal bond market has provided us with excellent
opportunities during the reporting period. Since interest rates have gone up to
higher levels, we have been able to invest our excess cash at higher yields. In
addition, we have also been focusing on adding high-grade bonds to the
Portfolio.

     The Portfolio's investment strategy going forward will be three-fold:

          .    We are lengthening maturities in the Portfolio to take advantage
               of the inexpensive valuations of municipal bonds relative to U.S.
               Treasuries

          .    We are focusing on investing in high-grade issues

          .    We are investing in discount paper as this is where we believe we
               can obtain the best value

     Our aim is to sell off some of our intermediate-term maturities that were
defensive and stretch out longer on the yield curve to lock in today's higher
rates. (The yield curve is the graphical depiction of the relationship between
the yield on bonds of the same credit quality but different maturities.) We see
the best opportunity for reward potential right now at the long end of the
curve.

Municipal Bond Market Outlook

     We think the U.S. economy should remain stable this year, as low
unemployment and strong consumer confidence will likely support demand

5 Investment-grade bonds are those rated Aaa, Aa, A and Baa by Moody's Investors
  Service Inc. or AAA, AA, A and BBB by Standard & Poor's Ratings Group, or that
  have an equivalent rating by any nationally recognized statistical rating
  organization or are determined by the manager to be of equivalent quality.

for goods. Moreover, we think that the Fed has engineered a good balance between
strong economic growth and an "acceptable" rate of inflation.

     Regarding further Fed monetary policy tightenings, we think that such
future actions would not be detrimental to the bond market, particularly as the
U.S. Treasury continues to pay down debt and inflation appears to be under
control. We believe that any further Fed policy actions have already been
comfortably priced into the bond market. We also believe that the good news is
that the economy's "soft landing" is likely to be at a higher annual growth rate
than was previously thought possible due to the possible emergence of a "New
Economy," where technological advances can spur economic growth without
inflationary pressures because of higher productivity.

     In our judgment, a number of influences remain favorable for the municipal
bond market. The new issue market is expected to decline this year, boosting
demand for bonds currently outstanding and enhancing interest for the roughly
$175 billion of new municipals expected in 2000. Fiscal trends are another major
positive. During past economic downturns, some municipal issuers facing
declining tax receipts were hard-pressed to repay their bond obligations. Today,
many state and local governments have budget surpluses. We believe these
surpluses indicate that investors will feel more comfortable holding municipals,
even in a downturn. Lastly, recent narrowing of spreads in the taxable market
has made alternatives less attractive. All of these trends help to explain why
we remain optimistic about the long-term prospects for the municipal bond
market.

     In closing, thank you for investing in the Managed Municipals Portfolio II
Inc. We look forward to continuing to help you pursue your financial goals.

Sincerely,

/s/ Heath B. McLendon                        /s/ Joseph P. Deane

Take Advantage of the Fund's Dividend Reinvestment Plan!

Did you know that Fund investors who reinvest their dividends are taking
advantage of one of the most effective wealth-building tools available today?
Systematic investments put time to work for you through the strength of
compounding.

As an investor in the Fund, you can participate in its Dividend Reinvestment
Plan ("Plan"), a convenient, simple and efficient way to reinvest your dividends
and capital gains, if any, in additional shares of the Fund. Below is a short
summary of how the Plan works.

Plan Summary

If you are a Plan participant who has not elected to receive your dividends in
the form of a cash payment, then your dividend and capital gain distributions
will be reinvested automatically in additional shares of the Fund.

The number of common stock shares in the Fund you will receive in lieu of a cash
dividend is determined in the following manner. If the market price of the
common stock is equal to or exceeds the net asset value per share ("NAV") on the
determination date, you will be issued shares by the Fund at a price reflecting
the NAV, or 95% of the market price, whichever is greater.

If the market price is less than the NAV at the time of valuation (the close of
business on the determination date), or if the Fund declares a dividend or
capital gains distribution payable only in cash, PFPC Global Fund Services
("Plan Agent"), formerly known as First Data Investor Services Group, Inc., will
buy common stock for your account in the open market.

If the Plan Agent begins to purchase additional shares in the open market and
the market price of the shares subsequently rises above the previously
determined NAV before the purchases are completed, the Plan Agent will attempt
to terminate purchases and have the Fund issue the remaining dividend or
distribution in shares at the greater of the previously determined NAV or 95% of
the market price. In that case, the number of Fund shares you receive will be
based on the weighted average of prices paid for shares purchased in the open
market and the price at which the Fund issues the remaining shares.

Restated Plan Adopted

A more complete description of the current Plan appears beginning on page 25.
The description is based on a restated version of the Plan, which was recently
adopted to reflect current practices of the Plan Agent and for the purpose of
standardizing the terms among all closed-end mutual funds managed by SSB Citi
Fund Management LLC.

To find out more detailed information about the Plan and about how you can
participate, please call PFPC Global Fund Services at (800) 331-1710.

                                 Bond Ratings
                                  (unaudited)

The definitions of the applicable rating symbols are set forth below:

Standard & Poor's Ratings Service ("Standard & Poor's") -- Ratings from "AA" to
"BB" may be modified by the addition of a plus (+) or minus (-) sign to show
relative standings within the major rating categories.

AAA        -- Bonds rated "AAA" have the highest rating assigned by Standard &
              Poor's to a debt obligation. Capacity to pay interest and repay
              principal is extremely strong.

AA         -- Bonds rated "AA" have a very strong capacity to pay interest and
              repay principal and differ from the highest rated issue only in a
              small degree.

A          -- Bonds rated "A" have a strong capacity to pay interest and repay
              principal although they are somewhat more susceptible to the
              adverse effects of changes in circumstances and economic
              conditions than bonds in higher rated categories.

BBB        -- Bonds rated "BBB" are regarded as having an adequate capacity to
              pay interest and repay principal. Whereas they normally exhibit
              adequate protection parameters, adverse economic conditions or
              changing circumstances are more likely to lead to a weakened
              capacity to pay interest and repay principal for bonds in this
              category than in higher rated categories.

BB         -- Bonds rated "BB" have less near-term vulnerability to default than
              other speculative issues. However, it faces major ongoing
              uncertainties or exposure to adverse business, financial, or
              economic conditions which could lead to inadequate capacity to
              meet timely interest and principal payments.

Moody's Investors Service, Inc. ("Moody's") -- Numerical modifiers 1, 2 and 3
may be applied to each generic rating from "Aa" to "Baa," where 1 is the highest
and 3 is the lowest ranking within its generic category.

Aaa        -- Bonds rated "Aaa" are judged to be of the best quality. They carry
              the smallest degree of investment risk and are generally referred
              to as "gilt edge." Interest payments are protected by a large or
              by an exceptionally stable margin and principal is secure. While
              the various protective elements are likely to change, such changes
              as can be visualized are most unlikely to impair the fundamentally
              strong position of such issues.
Aa         -- Bonds rated "Aa" are judged to be of high quality by all
              standards. Together with the "Aaa" group they comprise what are
              generally known as high grade bonds. They are rated lower than the
              best bonds because margins of protection may not be as large in
              "Aaa" securities or fluctuation of protective elements may be of
              greater amplitude or there may be other elements present which
              make the long-term risks appear somewhat larger than in "Aaa"
              securities.
A          -- Bonds rated "A" possess many favorable investment attributes and
              are to be considered as upper medium grade obligations. Factors
              giving security to principal and interest are considered adequate
              but elements may be present which suggest a susceptibility to
              impairment some time in the future.
Baa        -- Bonds rated "Baa" are considered as medium grade obligations,
              i.e., they are neither highly protected nor poorly secured.
              Interest payments and principal security appear adequate for the
              present but certain protective elements may be lacking or may be
              characteristically unreliable over any great length of time. Such
              bonds lack outstanding investment characteristics and in fact have
              speculative characteristics as well.

NR         -- Indicates that the bond is not rated by Standard & Poor's or
              Moody's.

                                    (unaudited)

SP-1       -- Standard & Poor's highest rating indicating very strong or strong
              capacity to pay principal and interest; those issued determined
              possess overwhelming safety characteristics are denoted with a
              plus (+) sign.
A-1        -- Standard & Poor's highest commercial paper and variable-rate
              demand obligation (VRDO) rating indicating that the degree of
              safety regarding timely payment is either overwhelming or very
              strong; those issues determined to possess overwhelming safety
              characteristics are denoted with a plus (+)sign.
A-2        -- Standard & Poor's second highest commercial paper and VRDO rating
              indicating that the degree of safety regarding timely payment is
              either overwhelming or very strong; those issues determined to
              possess overwhelming safety characteristics are denoted with a
              plus (+) sign.
VMIG 1     -- Moody's highest rating for issues having a demand feature -- VRDO.
P-1        -- Moody's highest rating for commercial paper and for VRDO prior to
              the advent of the VMIG-1 rating.

     1.   Significant Accounting Policies

     Managed Municipals Portfolio II Inc. ("Fund"), a Maryland corporation, is
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a
non-diversified, closed-end management investment company.

     The significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund are:
(a) security transactions are accounted for on trade date; (b) securities are
valued at the mean between bid and asked prices provided by an independent
pricing service that are based on transactions in municipal obligations,
quotations from municipal bond dealers, market transactions in comparable
securities and various relationships between securities; (c) securities maturing
within 60 days are valued at cost plus accreted discount, or minus amortized
premium, which approximates value; (d) gains or losses on the sale of securities
are calculated by using the specific identification method; (e) interest income,
adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of original issue discount,
is recorded on an accrual basis; market discount is recognized upon the
disposition of the security; (f) dividends and distributions to shareholders are
recorded on the ex-dividend date; (g) the character of income and gains to be
distributed are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may
differ from generally accepted accounting principles. At August 31, 1999,
reclassifications were made to undistributed net investment income and
accumulated net realized gains to reflect permanent book/tax differences and
income and gains available for distributions under income tax regulations. Net
investment income, net realized gains and net assets were not affected by this
change; (h) the Fund intends to comply with the applicable provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, pertaining to regulated investment
companies and to make distributions of taxable income sufficient to relieve it
from substantially all Federal income and excise taxes; and (i) estimates and
assumptions are required to be made regarding assets, liabilities and changes in
net assets resulting from operations when financial statements are prepared.
Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters
used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ.

     2.   Exempt-Interest Dividends and Other Distributions

     The Fund intends to satisfy conditions that will enable interest from
municipal securities, which is exempt from regular Federal income tax and from
designated state income taxes, to retain such tax-exempt status when distributed
to the shareholders of the Fund.

     Capital gains distributions, if any, are taxable to shareholders, and are
declared and paid at least annually.

     3.   Investment Advisory Agreement, Administration
          Agreement and Other Transactions

     SSB Citi Fund Management LLC ("SSBC"), a subsidiary of Salomon Smith Barney
Holdings Inc. ("SSBH"), which, in turn, is a subsidiary of Citigroup Inc., acts
as investment adviser to the Fund. The Fund pays SSBC an advisory fee calculated
at an annual rate of 0.70% of the average daily net assets of the Fund. This fee
is calculated daily and paid monthly. For the six months ended February 29,
2000, SSBC waived $52,137 of its investment advisory fee.

     SSBC also acts as the Fund's administrator for which the Fund pays a fee
calculated at an annual rate of 0.20% of the average daily net assets. This fee
is calculated daily and paid monthly. For the six months ended February 29,
2000, SSBC waived $14,896 of its administration fee.

     All officers and one Director of the Fund are employees of Salomon Smith
Barney Inc., another subsidiary of SSBH.

     4.   Investments

     For the six months ended February 29, 2000, the aggregate cost of purchases
and proceeds from sales of investments (including maturities, but excluding
short-term securities) were as follows:

================================================================================
Purchases                                                           $24,785,359
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sales                                                                30,699,397
================================================================================

At February 29, 2000, aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation
of investments for Federal income tax purposes were substantially as follows:

================================================================================
Gross unrealized appreciation                                       $ 2,100,290

     5.   Futures Contracts

     Initial margin deposits made upon entering into futures contracts are
recognized as assets. Securities equal to the initial margin amount are
segregated by the custodian in the name of the broker. Additional securities are
also segregated up to the current market value of the futures contracts. During
the period the futures contract is open, changes in the value of the contract
are recognized as unrealized gains or losses by "marking-to-market" on a daily
basis to reflect the market value of the contract at the end of each day's
trading. Variation margin payments are made or received and recognized as assets
due from or liabilities due to broker, depending upon whether unrealized gains
or losses are incurred. When the contract is closed, the Fund records a realized
gain or loss equal to the difference between the proceeds from (or cost of) the
closing transactions and the Fund's basis in the contract.

     The Fund enters into such contracts to hedge a portion of its portfolio.
The Fund bears the market risk that arises from changes in the value of the
financial instruments and securities indices (futures contracts).

     At February 29, 2000, the Fund had no open futures contracts.

     6.   Repurchase Agreements

     The Fund purchases (and its custodian takes possession of) U.S. government
securities from banks and securities dealers subject to agreements to resell the
securities to the sellers at a future date (generally, the next business day) at
an agreed-upon higher repurchase price. The Fund requires continual maintenance
of the market value of the collateral in amounts at least equal to the
repurchase price.

     7.   Capital Shares

     At February 29, 2000, the Fund had 500,000,000 shares of common stock
authorized with a par value of $0.001.

     On July 27, 1999, the Fund commenced a share repurchase plan. As of
February 29, 2000, repurchased shares totaled 765,500.

     8.   Capital Loss Carryforward

     At August 31, 1999, the Fund had, for Federal income tax purposes, $972,645
of unused capital loss carryforwards available to offset future capital gains
expiring August 31, 2007. To the extent that these carryforward losses are used
to offset capital gains, it is probable that the gains so offset will not be
distributed.

                           Dividend Reinvestment Plan
                                   (unaudited)

     Under the Fund's Dividend Reinvestment Plan ("Plan"), a shareholder whose
shares of common stock are registered in his own name will have all
distributions from the Fund reinvested automatically by PFPC Global Fund
Services ("PFPC"), formerly known as First Data Investor Services Group Inc., as
purchasing agent under the Plan, unless the shareholder elects to receive cash.
Distributions with respect to shares registered in the name of a broker-dealer
or other nominee (that is, in street name) will be reinvested by the broker or
nominee in additional shares under the Plan, unless the service is not provided
by the broker or nominee or the shareholder elects to receive distributions in
cash. Investors who own common stock registered in street name should consult
their broker-dealers for details regarding reinvestment. All distributions to
shareholders who do not participate in the Plan will be paid by check mailed
directly to the record holder by or under the direction of PFPC as dividend
paying agent.

     The number of shares of common stock distributed to participants in the
Plan in lieu of a cash dividend is determined in the following manner. When the
market price of the common stock is equal to or exceeds the net asset value per
share of the common stock on the determination date (generally, the record date
for the distribution), Plan participants will be issued shares of common stock
by the Fund at a price equal to the greater of net asset value determined as
described below under "Net Asset Value" or 95% of the market price of the common
stock.

     If the market price of the common stock is less than the net asset value of
the common stock at the time of valuation (which is the close of business on the
determination date), or if the Fund declares a dividend or capital gains
distribution payable only in cash, PFPC will buy common stock in the open
market, on the AMEX or elsewhere, for the participants' accounts. If following
the commencement of the purchases and before PFPC has completed its purchases,
the market price exceeds the net asset value of the common stock as of the
valuation time, PFPC will attempt to terminate purchases in the open market and
cause the Fund to issue the remaining portion of the dividend or distribution in
shares at a price equal to the greater of (a) net asset value as of the
valuation time or (b) 95% of the then current market price. In this case, the
number of shares received by a Plan participant will be based on the weighted
average of prices paid for shares purchased in the open market and the price at
which the Fund issues the remaining shares. To the extent PFPC is unable to stop
open market purchases and cause the Fund to issue the remaining shares, the
average per share purchase price paid by PFPC may exceed the net asset value of
the common stock as of the valuation time, resulting in the acquisition of fewer
shares than if the dividend or capital gains distribution had been paid in
common stock issued by the Fund at such net asset value. PFPC will begin to
purchase common stock on

                           Dividend Reinvestment Plan
                             (unaudited) (continued)

the open market as soon as practicable after the determination date for the
dividend or capital gains distribution, but in no event shall such purchases
continue later than 30 days after the payment date for such dividend or
distribution, or the record date for a succeeding dividend or distribution,
except when necessary to comply with applicable provisions of the federal
securities laws.

     PFPC maintains all shareholder accounts in the Plan and furnishes written
confirmation of all transactions in each account, including information needed
by a shareholder for personal and tax records. The automatic reinvestment of
dividends and capital gains distributions will not relieve plan participants of
any income tax that may be payable on the dividends or capital gains
distributions. Common stock in the account of each Plan participant will be held
by PFPC in uncertificated form in the name of the Plan participant.

     Plan participants are subject to no charge for reinvesting dividends and
capital gains distributions under the Plan. PFPC's fees for handling the
reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions will be paid by the
Fund. No brokerage charges apply with respect to shares of common stock issued
directly by the Fund under the Plan. Each Plan participant will, however, bear a
proportionate share of any brokerage commissions actually incurred with respect
to any open market purchases made under the Plan.

     Experience under the Plan may indicate that changes to it are desirable.
The Fund reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan as applied to any
dividend or capital gains distribution paid subsequent to written notice of the
change sent to participants at least 30 days before the record date for the
dividend or capital gains distribution. The Plan also may be amended or
terminated by PFPC, with the Fund's prior written consent, on at least 30 days'
written notice to Plan participants. All correspondence concerning the Plan
should be directed by mail to PFPC Global Fund Services, P.O. Box 8030, Boston,
Massachusetts 02266-8030 or by telephone at 1-800-331-1710.

                          --------------------------

     Notice is hereby given in accordance with Section 23(c) of the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended, that from time to time the Fund may purchase
shares of its common stock in the open market.
