1.    General:

Salomon Smith Barney Fairfield Futures Fund L.P. (the "Partnership") is a limited partnership which was organized on March 25, 2002 under the partnership laws of the State of New York 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. During the initial offering period (April 15, 2002 through June 4, 2002), the Partnership sold 12,424 redeemable units of Limited Partnership Interest ("Redeemable Units") and 126 Units of General Partnership Interest. The Partnership commenced trading on June 5, 2002.

Citigroup Managed Futures LLC, formerly Smith Barney Futures Management 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. As of September 30, 2004, all trading decisions for the Partnership are made by Graham Capital Management, L.P. (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, 2004 and December 31, 2003 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003. 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 Registration Statement on Form 10-12 G/A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 1, 2004.

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 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 of these interests during the nine and twelve months ended September 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, based on a monthly calculation, were $3,065,208 and $4,723,567, respectively. The fair values of these commodity interests, including options thereon, if applicable, at September 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, were $5,647,539 and $10,998,676, 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 Risks:

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 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 statements 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, forward and option positions by sector, margin requirements, gain and loss transactions and collateral positions.

The majority of these instruments mature within one year of September 30, 2004. However, due to the nature of the Partnership's business, these instruments may not be held to maturity.

12




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 third quarter of 2004.

The Partnership's capital consists of capital contributions, as increased or decreased by realized and/or unrealized gains or losses on commodity futures trading and expenses, interest income, redemptions of Redeemable Units and distributions of profits, if any.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2004, Partnership capital decreased 25.9% from $153,310,380 to $113,527,812. This decrease was attributable to a net loss from operations of $23,385,963, coupled with the redemption of 9,827.7567 Redeemable Units of Limited Partnership Interest totaling $16,396,605. Future redemptions can impact the amount of funds available for investment in commodity contract positions in subsequent periods.

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 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 dates of entry into the contracts and the forward rates at the reporting date, is included in the statements 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 2004, the Net Asset Value per Redeemable Unit decreased 6.2% from $1,593.62 to $1,495.57 as compared to a decrease of 11.8% in the third quarter of 2003. The Partnership experienced a net trading loss before brokerage commissions and related fees in the third quarter of 2004 of $5,909,849. Losses were primarily attributable to the trading of commodity futures in currencies, U.S. interest rates, metals, softs and indices and were partially offset by gains in energy, grains and non-U.S. interest rates. The Partnership experienced a net trading loss before brokerage commissions and related fees in the third quarter of 2003 of $12,893,320. Losses were primarily attributable to the trading of commodity futures in currencies, U.S. and non-U.S. interest rates, energy, grains, livestock and metals and were partially offset by gains in softs and indices.

During the Partnership's nine months ended September 30, 2004, the Net Asset Value per Redeemable Unit decreased 16.4% from $1,788.14 to $1,495.57 as compared to a decrease of 1.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2003. The Partnership experienced a net trading loss before brokerage commissions and related fees during the nine months ended September 30, 2004 of $13,501,236. Losses were primarily attributable to the trading of commodity futures in currencies, U.S. interest rates, softs and indices and were partially offset by gains in energy, grains, non-U.S. interest rates and metals. The Partnership experienced a net trading loss before brokerage commissions and related fees during the nine months ended September 30, 2003 of $440,808. Losses were primarily attributable to the trading of commodity futures in grains, U.S. and non-U.S. interest rates, livestock and metals and were partially offset by gains in currencies, energy, softs and indices.

The third quarter of 2004 was characterized by continued difficult trading conditions for the Partnership's trend-following Advisor. The currency sector produced the greatest losses as the European and Asian currencies were unable to sustain any solid direction versus a weak U.S. dollar. These choppy market conditions carried over to the U.S. interest rate markets generating losses for these positions as the Federal Reserve Bank tightened short-term rates in spite of persistent market-driven lower long-term interest rates. Slightly offsetting these losses were gains in non-US interest rate trading. Trading in global stock market indices was also unprofitable for the Partnership's Advisor as the same lack of direction caused trends to be initiated and only a short time later to be reversed.

Trading in crude oil, natural gas and gas oil contributed profits during the quarter as crude oil hit successive highs each month ending in September at over $50 per barrel. Trading in grains also contributed to profits for the period while metals and softs were slightly negative.

The overall expectation is for continued directionless financial markets and potentially volatile commodity markets until political, financial and economic trends become more evident.

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 average equity maintained in cash was earned at a 30-day U.S. Treasury bill rate determined weekly by CGM based on the average non-competitive yield on 3-month U.S. Treasury bills maturing in 30 days. CGM may continue to maintain the Partnership's assets in cash and/or place all of the Partnership'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 nine months ended September 30, 2004 increased by $100,740 and $210,168, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2003. The increase in interest income is primarily due to an increase in interest rates during the three months ended September 30, 2004 and an increase in average net assets in the nine months ended September 30, 2004 as compared to the corresponding periods in 2003.

Brokerage commissions are calculated as a percentage of the Partnership's adjusted net asset value on the last day of each month and are affected by trading performance, additions and redemptions. Accordingly, they must be analyzed in relation to the fluctuations in the monthly net asset values. Commissions and fees for the three months ended September 30, 2004 decreased by $156,449 as compared to the corresponding period in 2003. Commissions decreased in the third quarter of 2004 due to lower month-end net assets as compared to the corresponding period in 2003. Commissions and fees for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 increased by $1,183,703 as compared to the corresponding period in 2003. The increase in brokerage commissions and fees is due to higher month-end net assets during the nine months ended September 30, 2004 as compared to the corresponding period in 2003.

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, additions and redemptions. Management fees for

14




the three months ended September 30, 2004 decreased by $13,419 as compared to the corresponding period in 2003. Management fees decreased during the third quarter of 2004 due to lower month-end net assets as compared to the corresponding period in 2003. Management fees during the nine months ended September 30, 2004 increased by $493,863 as compared to the corresponding period in 2003. The increase in management fees is due to higher month-end net assets during the nine months ended September 30, 2004 as compared to the corresponding period in 2003.

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 months ended September 30, 2004 decreased by $3,355 as compared to the corresponding period in 2003. This decrease was due to lower month-end net assets in the third quarter of 2004 as compared to the corresponding period in 2003. Administrative fees for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 increased by $123,466 as compared to the corresponding period in 2003. This increase is due to higher month-end net assets during the nine months ended September 30, 2004 as compared to the corresponding period in 2003.

Incentive fees are based on the new trading profits generated by the Advisor at the end of the quarter 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, 2004, resulted in incentive fees of $0 and $2,826,991, respectively. Trading performance for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003, resulted in incentive fees of $0 and $1,747,649, 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 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 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.

The following table indicates the trading Value at Risk associated with the Partnership's open positions by market category as of September 30, 2004 and the highest, lowest and average values during the three months ended September 30, 2004. All open position trading risk exposures of the Partnership have been included in calculating the figures set forth below. As of September 30, 2004, the Partnership's total capitalization was $113,527,812. There has been no material change in the trading Value at Risk information previously disclosed in the Partnership's Registration Statement on Form 10-12 G/A filed on June 1, 2004.
