1. General:
Shearson Mid-West Futures Fund (the "Partnership") is a limited partnership
which was organized on August 21, 1991 under the partnership laws of the State
of New York to engage directly or indirectly in the speculative trading of a
diversified portfolio of commodity interests including futures contracts,
options and forward contracts. The Partnership commenced trading on December 2,
1991. From December 2, 1991 to January 25, 2002, the Partnership engaged
directly in the speculative trading of a diversified portfolio of commodity
interests.
Effective January 26, 2001, the Partnership transferred substantially all
of its assets as a tax-free transfer to the JWH Strategic Allocation Master Fund
LLC, a New York limited liability company (the "Master"), in exchange for
31,509.8853 Units of the Master with a fair value of $31,509,885. The Master was
formed in order to permit commodity pools managed now or in the future by John
W. Henry & Company, Inc. (the "Advisor") using the Strategic Allocation Program,
the Advisor's proprietary trading program, to invest together in one trading
vehicle. The commodity interests that are traded by the Master are volatile and
involve a high degree of market risk. Citigroup Managed Futures LLC, formerly
Smith Barney Futures Management LLC (the "General Partner"), is the general
partner of the Partnership and the managing member of the Master. The
Partnership is a non-managing member of the Master. Expenses to investors as a
result of the investment in the Master are approximately the same and redemption
rights are not affected.
As of June 30, 2003, the Partnership owns 19.4% of the Master. It is the
Partnership's intention to continue to invest substantially all of its assets in
the Master. The performance of the Partnership is directly affected by the
performance of the Master. The Master's Statement of Financial Condition,
Statement of Income and Expenses and Members' Capital and Condensed Schedule of
Investments are included herein.
The Partnership's and the Master's commodity broker is Citigroup Managed
Futures LLC. 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

(Continued)
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 June
30, 2003, all trading decisions for the Partnership are being made by 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 June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 and the results of its
operations for the three and six months ended June 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.

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 Partnership invests the majority of its
assets through a "master fund/feeder fund" structure. The results of the
Partnership's investment in the Master are shown in the statements of income and
expenses and Members' Capital and are discussed in Item 2, Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The respective Customer Agreements between the Partnership and CGM and the
Master and CGM give the Partnership and the Master, respectively, the legal
right to net unrealized gains and losses.
All of the commodity interests owned by the Master are held for trading
purposes. The average fair values during the six months ended June 30, 2003 and
December 31, 2002 based on a monthly calculation were $6,084,708 and $9,163,093,
respectively. The fair value of these commodity interests, including options
thereon, if applicable, at June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 was $(12,376,328)
and $9,394,955, respectively.
4. Financial Instrument Risk:
The Partnership, through the Partnership's investment in the Master, 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.
In the normal course of its business the Master 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

(Continued)
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 Master 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
Master'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 Master has credit risk and concentration risk because the
sole counterparty or broker with respect to the Master's assets is CGM.
The General Partner monitors and controls the Master'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 Master 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 June 30, 2003.
However, due to the nature of the Master's business, these instruments may not
be held to maturity.

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 investment in the Master, cash and interest receivable. The
Master does not engage in the sale of goods or services. Its only assets are its
investments in commodity futures and cash. 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 decrease in liquidity, no such losses occurred in the second
quarter of 2003.
The Partnership's capital consists of the capital contributions of the
partners as increased or decreased by its investment in the Master, expenses,
interest income, redemptions of Units and distributions of profits, if any.
For the six months ended June 30, 2003, Partnership capital increased 5.0%
from $26,641,938 to $27,984,839. This increase was attributable to net income
from operations of $3,052,414, which was partially offset by the redemption of
529.0605 Units of Limited Partnership Interest resulting in an outflow of
$1,709,513. Future redemptions can impact the amount of funds available for
investment in the Master in subsequent periods.
The Master's capital consists of the capital contributions of the members
as increased or decreased by realized and/or unrealized 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, 2003, the Master's capital increased
62.4% from $90,459,415 to $146,939,977. This increase was attributable to net
income from operations of $9,803,729, coupled with additional sales of
28,614.4521 Units totaling $54,982,545 which was partially offset by the
redemptions of 4,313.8117 Units resulting in an outflow of $7,729,873 coupled
with distribution of interest of $575,839 to the Partnerships. Future
redemptions can impact the amount of funds available for investments in
commodity contract positions in subsequent periods.
18
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
statement 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
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 second quarter of 2003, the net asset value per
unit decreased 3.5% from $3,134.33 to $3,025.48 as compared to an increase of
34.6% in the second quarter of 2002. The Partnership experienced a net trading
loss before brokerage commissions and related fees in the second quarter of 2003
of $341,834. Losses were primarily attributable to the Master's trading of
commodity futures in currencies, energy, grains, non-U.S. interest rates,
livestock, metals and softs and were partially offset by gains in U.S. interest
19
rates and indices. The Partnership experienced a net trading gain before
brokerage commissions and related fees in the second quarter of 2002 of
$8,456,592. Gains were primarily attributable to the Master's trading of
commodity futures in currencies, grains, non-U.S. interest rates, indices and
livestock and were partially offset by losses in energy, U.S. interest rates,
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
(and Master) 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 (and Master) expect to increase capital through
operations.
Interest income on 80% of the Partnership's average daily equity, allocated
to it by the Master, was earned at the monthly average 13-week U.S. Treasury
Bill yield. CGM may continue to maintain the Master's assets in cash and/or
place all of the Master's 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 six months ended June 30, 2003, decreased by $12,567 and $35,623,
respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2002. This decrease is
primarily the result of a decrease in interest rates during the three and six
months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to 2002.
Brokerage commissions are calculated on the Partnership's adjusted net
asset value on the last day of each month and are affected by trading
performance and redemptions. Accordingly, they must be analyzed in relation to
the fluctuations in monthly net asset values. Commissions and fees for the three
and six months ended June 30, 2003 increased by $59,022 and $139,306,
respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2002. The increase in
brokerage commissions is due to higher average net assets during the three and
six months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to 2002.
Management fees are calculated as a percentage of the Partnership's net
asset value as of the end of each month and are affected by trading performance
and redemptions. Management fees for the three and six months ended June 30,
20
2003 increased by $17,569 and $44,800, respectively, as compared to the
corresponding periods in 2002. The increase in management fees is due to higher
average net assets during the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 as
compared to 2002.
Administrative fees are paid to the General Partner for administering the
business and affairs of the Partnership. These fees are calculated as a
percentage of the Partnership's net asset value as of the end of each month and
are affected by trading performance and redemptions. Administrative fees for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2003 increased by $8,784 and $22,398,
respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2002. The increase in
administrative fees is due to higher net assets during the three and six months
ended June 30, 2003 as compared to 2002.
Incentive fees are based on the new trading profits generated by the
Advisor as defined in the advisory agreement between the Partnership, the
General Partner and the Advisor. Trading performance for the three and six
months ended June 30, 2003 resulted in incentive fees of $0 and $77,162,
respectively. There were no incentive fees earned for the three and six months
ended June 30, 2002.
21
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures of Market Risk
All of the Partnership's assets are subject to the risk of trading loss
through its investment in the Master. The Master 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 Master'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 Master's main
line of business.
Market movements result in frequent changes in the fair value of the
Master's open positions and, consequently, its earnings and cash flow. The
Master'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 of the
Master's open positions and the liquidity of the markets in which it trades.
The Master 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
Master's past performance is not necessarily indicative of its future results.
Value at Risk is a measure of the maximum amount which the Master could
reasonably be expected to lose in a given market sector. However, the inherent
uncertainty of the Master's speculative trading and the recurrence in the
markets traded by the Master of market movements far exceeding expectations
could result in actual trading or non-trading losses far beyond the indicated
Value at Risk or the Master'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
Master's losses in any market sector will be limited to Value at Risk or by the
Master's attempts to manage its market risk.
Exchange maintenance margin requirements have been used by the Master 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.
22
The following table indicates the trading Value at Risk associated with the
Master's open positions by market category as of June 30, 2003 and the highest
and lowest value at any point during the three and six months ended June 30,
2003. All open position trading risk exposures of the Master have been included
in calculating the figures set forth below. As of June 30, 2003, the Master's
total capitalization was $146,939,977. 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 June 30, 2003, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer of the General Partner have concluded that such controls and procedures
are effective.
There were no significant changes in the Partnership's internal controls or
in other factors that could significantly affect such controls subsequent to the
date of their evaluation.

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
Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2002 and under Part II, Item 1 "Legal Proceedings" in the
Partnership's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter
ended March 31, 2003.
Enron
On July 28, 2003, Citigroup entered into a final settlement agreement with the
Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") to resolve the SEC's outstanding
investigations into Citigroup transactions with Enron and Dynegy. Pursuant to
the settlement, Citigroup has, among other terms, (1) consented to the entry of
an administrative cease and desist order, which bars Citigroup from committing
or causing violations of provisions of the federal securities laws, and (2)
agreed to pay $120 million ($101.25 million allocable to Enron and $18.75
million allocable to Dynegy). Citigroup entered into this settlement without
admitting or denying any wrongdoing or liability, and the settlement does not
establish wrongdoing or liability for purposes of any other proceeding. On July
28, 2003, Citibank, N.A. entered into an agreement with the Office of the
Comptroller of the Currency ("OCC") and Citigroup entered into an agreement with
the Federal Reserve Bank of New York ("FED") to resolve their inquiries into
certain of Citigroup's transactions with Enron. Pursuant to the agreements,
Citibank and Citigroup have agreed to submit plans to the OCC and FED,
respectively, regarding the handling of complex structured finance transactions.
Also on July 28, 2003, Citigroup entered into a settlement agreement with the
Manhattan District Attorney's Office to resolve its investigation into certain
of Citigroup's transactions with Enron; pursuant to the settlement, Citigroup
has agreed to pay $25.5 million and to abide by its agreements with the SEC, OCC
and FED.
Additional Actions Several additional actions, previously identified, have been
consolidated with the Newby action and are stayed, except with respect to
certain discovery, until after the Court's decision on class certification.
Also, in July 2003, an action was brought by purchasers in the secondary market
of Enron bank debt against Citigroup, Citibank, Citigroup Global Markets Inc.
("CGM"), and others, alleging claims for common law fraud, conspiracy, gross
negligence, negligence and breach of fiduciary duty.
Research
On June 23, 2003, the West Virginia Attorney General filed an action against CGM
and nine other firms that were parties to the April 28, 2003 settlement with the
SEC, the National Association of Securities Dealers ("NASD"), the New York Stock
Exchange ("NYSE") and the New York Attorney General (the "Research Settlement").
The West Virginia Attorney General alleges that the firms violated the West
Virginia Consumer Credit and Protection Act in connection with their research
activities and seeks monetary penalties.
In May 2003, the SEC, NYSE and NASD issued a subpoena and letters to CGM
requesting documents and information with respect to their continuing
25
investigation of individuals in connection with the supervision of the research
and investment banking departments of CGM. Other parties to the Research
Settlement have received similar subpoena and letters.
In April 2003, to effectuate the Research Settlement, the SEC filed a Complaint
and Final Judgment in the United States District Court for the Southern District
of New York. The Final Judgment has not yet been entered by the court, and the
court has asked for certain additional information. Also in April 2003, the NASD
accepted the Letter of Acceptance, Waiver and Consent entered into with CGM in
connection with the Research Settlement; and in May 2003, the NYSE advised CGM
that the Hearing Panel's Decision, in which it accepted the Research Settlement,
had become final. CGM is currently in discussion with various of the states with
respect to completion of the state components of the Research Settlement.
Payment will be made in conformance with the payment provisions of the Final
Judgment.
WorldCom, Inc.
On May 19, 2003, a motion to dismiss an amended complaint in the WorldCom, Inc.
Securities Litigation was denied.
Dynegy Inc.
On June 6, 2003, the complaint in a pre-existing putative class action pending
in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, brought
by purchasers of publicly traded debt and equity securities of Dynegy Inc., was
amended to add Citigroup, Citibank and CGM, as well as other banks, as
defendants. The plaintiffs allege violations of the federal securities laws
against the Citigroup defendants.
Adelphia Communications Corporation
- -----------------------------------
On July 6, 2003, an adversary proceeding was filed by the Official Committee of
Unsecured Creditors on behalf of Adelphia against certain lenders and investment
banks, including CGM, Citibank, N.A., Citicorp USA, Inc., and Citigroup
Financial Products, Inc. (together, the Citigroup Parties). The Complaint
alleges that the Citigroup Parties and numerous other defendants committed acts
in violation of the Bank Company Holding Act and the common law. The complaint
seeks equitable relief and an unspecified amount of compensatory and punitive
damages.
In addition, Salomon Smith Barney Inc. (predecessor of Citigroup Global Markets
Inc.) is among the underwriters named in numerous civil actions brought to date
by investors in Adelphia debt securities in connection with Adelphia securities
offerings between September 1997 and October 2001. Three of the complaints also
assert claims against Citigroup and Citibank, N.A. All of the complaints allege
violations of federal securities laws, and certain of the complaints also allege
violations of state securities laws and the common law. The complaints seek
unspecified damages.
