Salomon Smith Barney Orion Futures Fund L.P.
Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 2006
(Unaudited)
In the normal course of its business, the Partnership and the Funds are party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk, including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments. These financial instruments may include forwards, futures, options and swaps, 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/Funds 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/Funds' 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/Funds have credit risk and concentration risk because the sole counterparty or broker with respect to the Partnership's/Funds' assets is CGM.
The General Partner monitors and controls the Partnership's/Funds' 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/Funds are 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, 2006. However, due to the nature of the Partnership's/Funds' businesses, 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. The Partnership's only assets are its equity in its commodity futures trading account consisting of cash, investment in Partnerships, net unrealized appreciation on open futures and forward contracts, commodity options, if applicable, 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 decrease in liquidity, no such losses occurred in the third quarter of 2006.
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, 2006, Partnership Capital increased 54.7% from $172,442,322 to $266,792,344. This increase was attributable to net income from operations of $17,200,112 coupled with additional sales of 53,898.1829 Redeemable Units of Limited Partnership totaling $93,056,000, which was partially offset by the redemption of 9,033.7017 Redeemable Units resulting in an outflow of $15,906,090. Future redemptions can impact the amount of funds available for investment in the Partnership in subsequent periods.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the 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) held by the Partnership 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, including dealer quotes for swaps and certain option contracts. 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 commodity interests and foreign currencies 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. The investment in AAA Master, Willowbridge Master and Winton Master are recorded at fair value, based upon the Partnership's proportionate interest held.
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 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 2006, the Net Asset Value per Redeemable Unit decreased 2.9% from $1,808.67 to $1,756.57 as compared to an increase of 5.7% in the third quarter of 2005. The Partnership experienced a net trading loss before brokerage commissions and related fees in the third
14
quarter of 2006 of $4,301,183. Losses were primarily attributable to the Partnership's trading of currencies, energy, grains, non-U.S. interest rates, livestock and metals and were partially offset by gains in U.S. interest rates, softs, and indices. The Partnership experienced a net trading gain before brokerage commissions and related fees in the third quarter of 2005 of $12,519,744. Gains were primarily attributable to the Partnership's trading of commodity futures in energy, grains, metals and indices, and were partially offset by losses in currencies, U.S. and non-U.S. interest rates, livestock, lumber and softs.
The third quarter presented a challenging investment landscape for the Advisors. The fund was negatively impacted by a number of price trend reversals in both financial and commodity markets. Gains earned in U.S. interest rates, soft commodities, and equity indices were offset by losses in currencies, metals, and energy.
The Advisors were profitable in trading soft commodities, especially in sugar and cotton, as reports suggesting record production of new crops resulted in price declines. Buoyant global equity markets were also beneficial for the fund as falling bond yields and energy prices supported global equity valuations. While small losses were realized in the global fixed income markets, trading in U.S. interest rates was profitable as the slowing housing market and deteriorating consumer spending further strengthened the perception that the U.S. monetary policy had changed course.
Losses were taken in energy, metals, and currency trading. Trading in the petroleum sector was adversely impacted by a larger than expected decline in oil and gasoline prices, sharp fluctuations in the relationship between prices of oil and refined products, and continued compression of price volatility in the sector. In natural gas trading, rising price volatility in nearby contract months coupled with price weakness in longer dated contracts produced losses for the sector. The fund posted gains from trading in Japanese Yen as the dollar strengthened on speculation that Japan's central bank would refrain from raising interest rates again this year. However, these gains were insufficient to offset losses from trading in Euro and Swiss Franc. Gains from the industrial metals only partially offset losses in precious metals where prices reflected unfavorable trading ranges and sharp price reversals.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2006, the Net Asset Value per Redeemable Unit increased 9.0% from $1,611.33 to $1,756.57 as compared to an increase of 16.6% during the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The Partnership experienced a net trading gain before brokerage commissions and related fees in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 of $28,673,121. Gains were primarily attributable to the Partnership's trading of energy, U.S. and non-U.S. interest rates, metals and indices and were partially offset by losses in currencies, grains, livestock and softs. The Partnership experienced a net trading gain before brokerage commissions and related fees in the nine months ended September 30, 2005 of $33,801,631. Gains were primarily attributable to the Partnership's trading of commodity futures in energy, indices and lumber and were partially offset by losses in currencies, grains, U.S. and non-U.S. interest rates, livestock, metals and softs.
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 Advisors 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 Advisors are able to identify them, the Partnership expects to increase capital through operations. AAA is aware of price trends but does not trade upon trends. AAA often takes profits in positions with specific trends even though that trend may still be intact or perhaps even stronger. AAA occasionally establishes positions that are counter-trend.
Interest income is earned on 100% of the Partnership's average daily equity allocated to it by the funds in its account during each month 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 from the date on which such weekly rate is determined. 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 100% of the interest earned on Treasury bills purchased. Interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2006 increased by $77,674 as compared to the corresponding period in 2005. The increase in interest
15
income is primarily due to higher interest rates during the three months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to the corresponding period in 2005. Interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 decreased $159,677 as compared to the corresponding period in 2005. The decrease in interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was due to lower average net assets held for direct trading by the partnership when compared to the corresponding period in 2005. The decrease is due to the Partnership's use of cash to fund additional investments in other partnerships. The interest earned at the Investment in Partnerships level is included in the Partnership's share of overall net income (loss) of the other partnerships in 2006 as compared to 2005.
Brokerage commissions are based on the number of trades executed by the Advisors. Brokerage commissions and fees for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 increased by $379,370 and $1,241,158, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2005. The increase in commissions and fees is primarily due to an increase in the number of trades during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to the corresponding periods in 2005.
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 the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 increased by $436,547 and $1,258,830, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2005. The increase of management fees is due to an increase in net assets during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to the corresponding periods in 2005.
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 nine months ended September 30, 2006 increased by $123,835 and $352,716, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2005. The increase in administrative fees is due to an increase in net assets during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to the corresponding periods in 2005.
Incentive fees paid by the Partnership are based on the new trading profits generated by each Advisor at the end of the quarter, as defined in the management agreements between the Partnership, the General Partner and each Advisor. Trading performance for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 resulted in incentive fees of $0 and $3,736,128, respectively. Trading performance for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 resulted in incentive fees of $2,219,153 and $7,548,870, 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 of 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 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.
17
The following tables indicate the trading Value at Risk associated with the Partnership's investments and investments in other Partnerships by market category as of September 30, 2006 and the highest, lowest and average value during the three months ended September 30, 2006. All open position trading risk exposures of the Partnership have been included in calculating the figures set forth below. As of September 30, 2006, the Partnership's total capitalization was $266,792,344. There has been no material change in the trading Value at Risk information previously disclosed in the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.
