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.
On April 7, 2003, Smith Barney Futures Management LLC changed its name to
Citigroup Managed Futures LLC. Citigroup Managed Futures LLC acts as the general
partner (the "General Partner") of the Partnership. The Partnership's commodity
broker is Citigroup Global Markets Inc. ("CGM"), formerly Salomon Smith Barney
Inc. CGM is an affiliate of the General Partner. The General Partner is wholly
owned by Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. ("CGMHI"), formerly Salomon
Smith Barney Holdings Inc., which is the sole owner of CGM. CGMHI is a wholly
owned subsidiary of Citigroup Inc. ("Citigroup"). As of September 30, 2003, all
trading decisions are made for the Partnership by John W. Henry & Company, Inc.
(the "Advisor").
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, 2003 and December 31, 2002 and the results of its
operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002.
These financial statements present the results of interim periods and do not
include all disclosures normally provided in annual financial statements. You
should read these financial statements together 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, 2002.
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.
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current
year presentation.

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
activities are shown in the Statements of Income and Expenses and Partners'
Capital and are discussed in Item 2, Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The Customer Agreement between the Partnership and CGM gives the
Partnership the legal right to net unrealized gains and losses on open futures
positions.
All of the commodity interests owned by the Partnership are held for
trading purposes. The average fair values during the nine and twelve months
ended September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, based on a monthly calculation,
were assets of $1,159,623 and $1,802,674, respectively. The fair value of these
commodity interests, including options thereon, if applicable, at September 30,
2003 and December 31, 2002, were assets of $635,881 and $1,850,754,
respectively. Fair values for exchange traded commodity futures and options are
based on quoted market prices for those futures and options. Fair values for all
other financial instruments for which market quotations are not readily
available are based on calculations approved by the General Partner.
4. Financial Instrument Risk:
In the normal course of its business the Partnership is party to financial
instruments with off-balance sheet risk, including derivative financial
instruments and derivative commodity instruments. These financial instruments
may include forwards, futures and options, whose values are 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
10
HUTTON INVESTORS FUTURES FUND L.P. II
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2003
(Unaudited)
(Continued)
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 as unrealized appreciation in the statement of
financial condition and not represented by the contract or notional amounts of
the instruments. The Partnership has credit risk and concentration risk because
the sole counterparty or broker with respect to the Partnership's assets is CGM.
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 majority of these instruments mature within one year of September 30,
2003. However, due to the nature of the Partnership's business, these
instruments may not be held to maturity.
11
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, net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on open futures and forward
contracts and interest receivable. 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 2003.
The Partnership's capital consists of the capital contributions of the
partners as increased or decreased by realized and/or unrealized gains or losses
on commodity futures trading, expenses, interest income, redemptions of
Redeemable Units and distributions of profits, if any.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2003, Partnership capital increased
3.9% from $19,486,774 to $20,247,296. This increase was attributable to net
income from operations of $1,967,551, which was partially offset by the
redemption of 130 Redeemable Units resulting in an outflow of $1,207,029. Future
redemptions can impact the amount of funds available for investment in commodity
contract positions in subsequent months.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
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
statements of financial condition at fair value on the last business day of the
period, which represents market value for those commodity interests for which
market quotations are readily available or other measures of fair value deemed
appropriate by management of the General Partner for those commodity interests
and foreign currencies for which market quotations are not readily available.
Investments in commodity interests denominated in foreign currencies are
12
translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates prevailing on the last
business day of the period. Realized gains (losses) and changes in unrealized
values on open positions 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.
Foreign currency contracts are those contracts where the Partnership agrees
to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of foreign currency for an agreed-upon
price on an agreed future date. Foreign currency contracts are valued daily, and
the Partnership's net equity therein, representing unrealized gain or loss on
the contracts as measured by the difference between the forward foreign exchange
rates at the date of entry into the contracts and the forward rates at the
reporting dates, is included in the statement of financial condition. Realized
gains (losses) and changes in unrealized values on foreign currency contracts
are recognized in the period in which the contract is closed or the changes
occur and are included in the statements of income and expenses and partners'
capital.
Results of Operations
During the Partnership's third quarter of 2003, the net asset value per
Redeemable Unit decreased 5.0% from $9,415.57 to $8,942.78 as compared to an
increase of 21.7% in the third quarter of 2002. The Partnership experienced a
net trading loss before brokerage commissions and related fees in the third
quarter of 2003 of $844,377. Losses were primarily attributable to the trading
of commodity futures in energy, grains, softs, U.S. and non-U.S. interest rates
and metals and were partially offset by gains in currencies, livestock and
indices. The Partnership experienced a net trading gain before brokerage
commissions and related fees in the third quarter of 2002 of $5,001,379. Gains
were primarily attributable to the trading of commodity futures in energy,
grains, livestock, U.S. and non-U.S. interest rates and indices and were
partially offset by losses in currencies, softs and metals.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2003, the Partnerships net asset
value per Redeemable Unit increased 9.9% from $8,139.52 to $8,942.78 as compared
to an increase of 44.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The
partnership experienced a net trading gain before brokerage commissions and
related fees during the nine months ended September 30, 2003 of $2,889,206.
Gains were primarily attributable to the trading of commodity contracts in
currencies, energy, livestock, U.S. and non-U.S. interest rates and indices and
were partially offset by losses in grains, softs and metals. The Partnership
experienced a net trading gain before brokerage commissions and related fees
13
during the nine months ended September 30, 2002 of $8,290,988. Gains were
primarily attributable to the trading of commodity contracts in currencies,
energy, grains, livestock, U.S. and non-U.S. interest rates and indices and were
partially offset by losses in softs and metals.
Commodity futures markets are highly volatile. The potential for broad and
rapid price fluctuations increases the risks involved in commodity trading but
also increases the possibility of profit. The profitability of the Partnership
depends on the existence of major price trends and the ability of the Advisor to
correctly identify 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 Advisor is able to identify them,
the Partnership expects to increase capital through operations.
Interest income on 80% of the Partnership's daily equity maintained in cash
was earned at the monthly average 13-week U.S. Treasury Bill yield. CGM may
continue to maintain the Partnership assets in cash and/or place all of the
Partnership assets in 90-day Treasury bills and pay the Partnership 80% of the
interest earned on the Treasury bills purchased. CGM will retain 20% of any
interest earned on Treasury bills. Interest income for the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2003 decreased by $23,739 and $25,509, respectively, as
compared to the corresponding period in 2002. The decrease in interest income is
primarily due to a decrease in interest rates during the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2003 as compared to 2002.
Brokerage commissions are based on the number of trades executed by the
Advisor. Brokerage commissions and fees for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2003 increased by $102,705 and $228,014, respectively, as compared
to the corresponding period in 2002. The increase in commissions and fees is
primarily due to higher net assets, and therefore higher number of round turns,
during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003 as compared to 2002.
Incentive fees are based on the new trading profits generated by the
Advisor as defined in the advisory agreements between the Partnership, the
General Partner and the Advisor. Trading performance for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2003 resulted in incentive fees of $0 and $286,455,
respectively. Trading performance for the three and nine months ended September
30, 2002, resulted in incentive fees of $955,382 and $1,083,961, respectively.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about 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 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 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 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.
Exchange maintenance margin requirements have been used by the Partnership
as the measure of its Value at Risk. Maintenance margin requirements are set by
exchanges to equal or exceed the maximum losses reasonably expected to be
incurred in the fair value of any given contract in 95%-99% of any one-day
interval. Maintenance margin has been used rather than the more generally
available initial margin, because initial margin includes a credit risk
component, which is not relevant to Value at Risk.
15
The following table indicates the trading Value at Risk associated with the
Partnership's open positions by market category as of September 30, 2003 and the
highest and lowest value at any point during the nine months ended September 30,
2003. All open position trading risk exposures of the Partnership have been
included in calculating the figures set forth below. As of September 30, 2003,
the Partnership's total capitalization was $20,247,296. There has been no
material change in the trading Value at Risk information previously disclosed in
the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Based on their evaluation of the Partnership's disclosure controls and
procedures as of September 30, 2003, the President and Chief Financial Officer
of the General Partner have concluded that such controls and procedures are
effective.
During the Partnership's last fiscal quarter, no changes occurred in the
Partnership's internal control over financial reporting that have materially
affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Partnership's
internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The following information supplements and amends our discussion set forth
under Part I, Item 3 "Legal Proceedings" in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002, as updated by our Quarterly
Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2003 and June 30, 2003 and
our Current Report on Form 8-K dated April 28, 2003.
ENRON
TITTLE, ET AL. v. ENRON CORP., ET AL.
On September 30, 2003, all of the claims against Citigroup in this
litigation were dismissed.
Additional Actions
Several additional actions, previously identified, have been consolidated
or coordinated with the Newby action and are stayed, except with respect to
certain discovery, until after the court's decision on class certification. In
addition, on August 15, 2003, a purported class action was brought by purchasers
of Enron stock alleging state law claims of negligent misrepresentation, fraud,
breach of fiduciary duty and aiding and abetting a breach of fiduciary duty. On
August 29, 2003, an investment company filed a lawsuit alleging that Citigroup,
CGM and several other defendants (including, among others, Enron's auditor,
financial institutions, outside law firms and rating agencies) engaged in a
conspiracy, which purportedly caused plaintiff to lose credit (in the form of a
commodity sales contract) it extended to an Enron subsidiary in purported
reliance on Enron's financial statements. On September 24, 2003, Enron filed an
adversary proceeding in its chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings to recover alleged
preferential payments and fraudulent transfers involving Citigroup, CGM and
other entities, and to disallow or to subordinate bankruptcy claims that
Citigroup, CGM and other entities have filed against Enron.
Research
In connection with the global research settlement, on October 31, 2003,
final judgment was entered against CGM and nine other investment banks. In
addition, CGM has entered into separate settlement agreements with numerous
states and certain U.S. territories.
18
WORLDCOM
Citigroup and/or CGM are now named in approximately 35 individual state
court actions brought by pension funds and other institutional investors based
on underwriting of debt securities of WorldCom. Most of these actions have been
removed to federal court and transferred to the United States District Court for
the Southern District of New York for centralized pretrial hearings with other
WorldCom actions. On October 24, 2003, the court granted plaintiffs' motion to
have this matter certified as a class action.
OTHER
On November 3, 2003, the United States District Court for the Southern
District of New York granted the Company's motion to dismiss the consolidated
amended complaint asserting violations of certain federal and state antitrust
laws by CGM and other investment banks in connection with the allocation of
shares in initial public offerings underwritten by such parties.
