                            (a limited partnership)
                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 JUNE 30, 2001
                                  (Unaudited)

A. General

   These financial statements have been prepared without audit. In the opinion
of Prudential Securities Futures Management Inc. (the 'General Partner'), the
financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal
recurring adjustments) necessary to state fairly the financial position of
Prudential-Bache Capital Return Futures Fund 2, L.P. (the 'Partnership') as of
June 30, 2001 and the results of its operations for the six and three months
ended June 30, 2001 and 2000. However, the operating results for the interim
periods may not be indicative of the results expected for a full year.

   Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual
financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America have been omitted. It is suggested that
these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements
and notes thereto included in the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the year ended December 31,
2000.

   Certain balances from 2000 have been reclassified to conform with the current
financial statement presentation.

   Welton Investment Corporation ('Welton'), a trading manager to the
Partnership, was terminated effective May 31, 2001 due to performance not
meeting expectations relative to its peers. The assets previously managed by
Welton (the 'Welton Assets'), which totalled approximately $2,189,000 as of June
30, 2001, were reallocated to commodities trading on July 8, 2001 as more fully
discussed in Note E. The Welton Assets earned interest but were not subject to
management fees or commissions during the period that the assets were not
allocated to trading.

B. Related Parties

   The General Partner is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Prudential Securities
Incorporated ('PSI'). The General Partner and its affiliates perform services
for the Partnership which include, but are not limited to: brokerage services;
accounting and financial management; registrar, transfer and assignment

   The costs incurred for these services for the six and three months ended June
30, 2001 and 2000 were:

   The Partnership's assets are maintained either in trading or cash accounts
with PSI, the Partnership's commodity broker, or, for margin purposes, with the
various exchanges on which the Partnership is permitted to trade.

   The Partnership, acting through its trading managers, may execute
over-the-counter, spot, forward and/or option foreign exchange transactions with
PSI. PSI then engages in back-to-back trading with an affiliate,
Prudential-Bache Global Markets Inc. ('PBGM'). PBGM attempts to earn a profit on
such transactions. PBGM keeps its prices on foreign currency competitive with
other interbank currency trading desks. All over-the-counter currency
transactions are conducted between PSI and the Partnership pursuant to a line of
credit. PSI may require that collateral be posted against the marked-to-market
positions of the Partnership.

C. Derivative Instruments and Associated Risks

   The Partnership is exposed to various types of risk associated with the
derivative instruments and related markets in which it invests. These risks
include, but are not limited to, risk of loss from fluctuations in the value of
derivative instruments held (market risk) and the inability of counterparties to
perform under the terms of the Partnership's investment activities (credit
risk).

Market risk

   Trading in futures and forward (including foreign exchange) contracts
involves entering into contractual commitments to purchase or sell a particular
commodity at a specified date and price. The gross or face amount of the
contracts, which is typically many times that of the Partnership's net assets
being traded, significantly exceeds the Partnership's future cash requirements
since the Partnership intends to close out its open positions prior to
settlement. As a result, the Partnership is generally subject only to the risk
of loss arising from the change in the value of the contracts. As such, the
Partnership considers the 'fair value' of its futures and forward contracts to
be the net unrealized gain or loss on the contracts. The market risk associated
with the Partnership's commitments to purchase commodities is limited to the
gross or face amount of the contracts held. However, when the Partnership enters
into a contractual commitment to sell commodities, it must make delivery of the
underlying commodity at the contract price and then repurchase the contract at
prevailing market prices. Since the repurchase price to which a commodity can
rise is unlimited, entering into commitments to sell commodities exposes the
Partnership to unlimited risk.

   Trading in options involves the payment or receipt of a premium and the
corresponding right or obligation, as the case may be, to either purchase or
sell the underlying commodity for a specified price during a limited period of
time. Purchasing options involves the risk that the underlying commodity does
not change price as expected, so that the option expires worthless and the
premium is lost. On the other hand, selling options involves unlimited risk
because the Partnership is exposed to the potentially unlimited price movement
in the underlying commodity.

   Market risk is influenced by a wide variety of factors including government
programs and policies, political and economic events, the level and volatility
of interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, the diversification effects
among the derivative instruments the Partnership holds and the liquidity and
inherent volatility of the markets in which the Partnership trades.

Credit risk

   When entering into futures, forward and options contracts, the Partnership is
exposed to credit risk that the counterparty to the contract will not meet its
obligations. The counterparty for futures and options contracts traded on United
States and most foreign futures and options exchanges is the clearinghouse
associated with such exchanges. In general, clearinghouses are backed by their
corporate members who are required to share any financial burden resulting from
the nonperformance by one of their members and, as such, should significantly
reduce this credit risk. In cases where the clearinghouse is not backed by the
clearing members (i.e., some foreign exchanges), it is normally backed by a
consortium of banks or other financial institutions. On the other hand, the sole
counterparty to the Partnership's forward transactions is PSI, the Partnership's
commodity broker. The Partnership has entered into a master netting agreement
with PSI and, as a result, presents unrealized gains and losses on open forward
positions as a net amount in the statements of financial condition. The amount
at risk associated with counterparty nonperformance of all of the Partnership's
contracts is the net unrealized gain (plus premiums paid on options) included in
the statements of financial condition. There can be no assurance that any
counterparty, clearing member or clearinghouse will meet its obligations to the
Partnership.

   The General Partner attempts to minimize both credit and market risks by
requiring the Partnership and its trading managers to abide by various trading
limitations and policies. The General Partner monitors compliance with these
trading limitations and policies which include, but are not limited to:
executing and clearing all trades with creditworthy counterparties, limiting the
amount of margin or premium required for any one commodity or all commodities
combined, and generally limiting transactions to contracts which are traded in
sufficient volume to permit the taking and liquidating of positions.
Additionally, pursuant to each Advisory Agreement among the Partnership, the
General Partner and each trading manager, the General Partner shall
automatically terminate a trading manager if the net asset value allocated to
the trading manager declines by 33 1/3% since the commencement of its trading
activities or from the value at the beginning of any year. Furthermore, the
Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership provides

                                       5

<Page>
that the Partnership will liquidate its positions, and eventually dissolve, if
the Partnership experiences a decline in the net asset value to less than 50% of
the value at commencement of trading activities. In each case, the decline in
net asset value is after giving effect for distributions and redemptions. The
General Partner may impose additional restrictions (through modifications of
trading limitations and policies) upon the trading activities of the trading
managers as it, in good faith, deems to be in the best interest of the
Partnership.

   PSI, when acting as the Partnership's futures commission merchant in
accepting orders for the purchase or sale of domestic futures and options
contracts, is required by Commodity Futures Trading Commission ('CFTC')
regulations to separately account for and segregate as belonging to the
Partnership all assets of the Partnership relating to domestic futures and
options trading (subject to the recent opt out provisions discussed below) and
is not allowed to commingle such assets with other assets of PSI. At June 30,
2001, such segregated assets totalled $10,378,755. Part 30.7 of the CFTC
regulations also requires PSI to secure assets of the Partnership related to
foreign futures and options trading which totalled $2,206,038 at June 30, 2001.
There are no segregation requirements for assets related to forward trading.

   The CFTC recently promulgated rules that allow futures commission merchants
to permit certain customers, including the Partnership, to opt out of
segregation with regard to trading on certain exchanges, but PSI has not done so
to date. If the Partnership were to opt out, its funds could be held in a
broader and riskier range of investments.

   As of June 30, 2001, the Partnership's open futures and forward contracts
mature within one year.

   At June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000, the fair value of open futures,
forward and options contracts was:

E. Subsequent Events

   During July 2001, the Partnership entered into agreements to reallocate the
Welton Assets evenly between two of the Partnership's trading managers--Appleton
Capital Management ('Appleton') and Eclipse Capital Management, Inc.
('Eclipse'). Appleton and Eclipse will receive monthly management fees on their
portion of the reallocated assets equal to 1/6 of 1% (2% annually) as compared
to management fees paid to Welton ranging between 1/6 of 1% (2% annually) and
1/3 of 1% (4% annually). Appleton and Eclipse will earn a quarterly incentive
fee equal to 20% of the 'New High Net Trading Profits' (as defined in each
advisory agreement among the Partnership, the General Partner and each trading
manager) as compared to the range of 15% to 20% for Welton. Additionally,
Appleton must recoup 100% (or $964,000) of Welton's cumulative trading losses
associated with its portion of the reallocated assets and Eclipse must recoup
only 50% (or $482,000) of its portion, before earning any incentive fees.

           ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                      CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Liquidity and Capital Resources

   The Partnership commenced trading operations on October 6, 1989 with gross
proceeds of $101,010,000. After accounting for organizational and offering
costs, the Partnership's net proceeds were $99,010,000.

   At June 30, 2001, 82% of the Partnership's total net assets was allocated to
commodities trading. The remaining Partnership net assets were not allocated to
commodities trading after Welton, one of the Partnership's trading managers, was
terminated effective May 31, 2001 due to performance not meeting expectations
relative to its peers. The Welton Assets were reallocated evenly between two of
the Partnership's trading managers during July 2001 as further discussed in Note
E to the financial statements.

   A significant portion of the net asset value as of June 30, 2001 was held in
U.S. Treasury bills (which represented approximately 63% of the net asset value
prior to redemptions payable) and cash, which are used as margin for the
Partnership's trading in commodities. Inasmuch as the sole business of the
Partnership is to trade in commodities, the Partnership continues to own such
liquid assets to be used as margin.

   The percentage that U.S. Treasury bills bears to the total net assets varies
each day, and from month to month, as the market values of commodity interests
change. The balance of the net assets is held in cash. All interest earned on
the Partnership's interest-bearing funds is paid to the Partnership. For the
month of June 2001, the Partnership earned interest on the assets previously
managed by Welton (the 'Welton Assets').

   The commodities contracts are subject to periods of illiquidity because of
market conditions, regulatory considerations and other reasons. For example,
commodity exchanges limit fluctuations in certain commodity futures contract
prices during a single day by regulations referred to as 'daily limits.' During
a single day, no trades may be executed at prices beyond the daily limit. Once
the price of a futures contract for a particular commodity has increased or
decreased by an amount equal to the daily limit, positions in the commodity can
neither be taken nor liquidated unless traders are willing to effect trades at
or within the limit. Commodity futures prices have occasionally moved the daily
limit for several consecutive days with little or no trading. Such market
conditions could prevent the Partnership from promptly liquidating its commodity
futures positions.

   Since the Partnership's business is to trade futures, forward and options
contracts, its capital is at risk due to changes in the value of these contracts
(market risk) or the inability of counterparties to perform under the terms of
the contracts (credit risk). The Partnership's exposure to market risk is
influenced by a number of factors including the volatility of interest rates and
foreign currency exchange rates, the liquidity of the markets in which the
contracts are traded and the relationships among the contracts held. The
inherent uncertainty of the Partnership's speculative trading as well as the
development of drastic market occurrences could result in monthly losses
considerably beyond the Partnership's experience to date and could ultimately
lead to a loss of all or substantially all of investors' capital. The general
partner attempts to minimize these risks by requiring the Partnership and its
trading managers to abide by various trading limitations and policies, which
include limiting margin amounts, trading only in liquid markets and permitting
the use of stop loss provisions. See Note C to the financial statements for a
further discussion of the credit and market risks associated with the
Partnership's futures, forward and options contracts.

   Redemptions recorded for the six and three months ended June 30, 2001 were
$870,298 and $371,528, respectively, for the limited partners and $8,893 and
$3,832, respectively, for the general partner, and from commencement of
operations, October 6, 1989, through June 30, 2001, totalled $132,261,846 for
the limited partners and $1,881,995 for the general partner. Future redemptions
will impact the amount of funds available for investment in commodity contracts
in subsequent periods.

   The Partnership does not have, nor does it expect to have, any capital
assets.

Results of Operations

   The net asset value per Unit as of June 30, 2001 was $212.91, a decrease of
4.45% from the December 31, 2000 net asset value per Unit of $222.83 and a
decrease of 7.45% from the March 31, 2001 net asset value per Unit of $230.06.
Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.

   The Partnership had gross trading losses of approximately $21,000 and
$780,000 during the six and three months ended June 30, 2001, respectively,
compared to losses of $1,325,000 and $831,000 for the corresponding periods in
the prior year. Due to the nature of the Partnership's trading activities, a
period to period comparison of its trading results is not meaningful. However, a
detailed discussion of the Partnership's current quarter trading results is
presented below.

Quarterly Market Overview

   The global economy remained sluggish during the second quarter of 2001 and as
a result, U.S. and global stock markets continued their downward trend. In the
U.S., heightened concerns regarding cutbacks in industrial production and future
sales caused downward revisions of corporate earnings. Business investment and
capital spending were weak and appeared to be decreasing further, reflecting in
part the downtrend in manufacturing output. Labor demand weakened considerably
and unemployment rose. Consumer spending held up relatively well despite
deceleration in income, reduced household net worth, and deterioration in
consumer sentiment. Economic activity in foreign industrial countries
decelerated as well, due in part to softening of the U.S. economy, weakness in
world high-tech markets and the downward adjustment in global equity prices.
Expansion in Europe, including the United Kingdom, and Canada slowed
significantly, while the Japanese economy slowed after a brief rebound late last
year. In addition, economic growth in many developing countries softened,
reflecting, in part, weaker external demand. In the U.S., overall inflation, as
measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI), increased slightly, but was held
down by a deceleration in energy prices.

   As a result of weak global economies, equity markets continued to perform
poorly during most of the quarter. In April, U.S. equity markets, particularly
the NASDAQ, rallied briefly after the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) called an
unscheduled meeting to lower interest rates before falling once again amid
continuing softening economies and fears of weak corporate earnings. Markets
rose briefly once again in June following the U.S. Federal Reserve's 25 basis
point interest rate cut. This smaller than anticipated rate reduction seemed to
signal a cessation of the Fed's recent series of aggressive rate cuts and caused
many investors to exit the bond market and invest in equities.

   Interest rate instruments trended upward throughout most of the quarter as
major central banks cut short-term interest rates in an attempt to bolster
slowing economies. The U.S. Federal Reserve cut rates three times during the
quarter lowering rates from 4.50% to 3.75%. The European Central Bank and the
Bank of England cut interest rates by 25 basis points in May. This was the third
interest rate reduction in five months for the Bank of England. Global bonds
reversed downward towards quarter-end as the Fed cut rates by only 25 basis
points, driving many investors out of interest rate instruments and into
equities.

   In foreign exchange markets, the Japanese yen started the quarter strong
before weakening against the U.S. dollar and other foreign currencies. This
followed a government report that Japan's GDP shrank in the first quarter,
generating fears that the Japanese economy may be slipping into recession. The
Canadian dollar posted gains against the U.S. dollar as economic reports showed
a 1.7% increase in exports to the U.S. in June. The British pound reached a 15
year low against the U.S. dollar in June amid concern that England would join
the European Monetary Union. The euro declined against the U.S. dollar as well,
amid signs of continuing weakness in the European economy.

   Energy prices fell in response to growing inventory levels of crude oil and
related products. The American Petroleum Institute reported that the U.S.
gasoline supply had reached its highest level in two years. Swelling energy
inventories fed fears of an overall weakening demand for fuels in the slowing
global economy. Additionally, the market fell when tropical storm Allison caused
less damage along the Gulf Coast than was originally feared.

Quarterly Partnership Performance

   The following is a summary of performance for the major sectors in which the
Partnership traded:
                                       9

<Page>
   Currencies (-): After a strong start, the Japanese yen declined against the
U.S. dollar and many European currencies as the Japanese economy exhibited signs
of weakness. Long Japanese yen and yen cross-rate positions resulted in losses.
The euro declined against the U.S. dollar, Swiss franc and other foreign
currencies amid fears of weakening European economies resulting in losses for
euro cross-rate positions.

   Interest rates (-): Prices of most interest rate instruments trended upward
throughout most of the quarter due to short-term interest rate cuts by major
central banks in an attempt to bolster slowing economies. Short positions in
U.S. government and euro bonds resulted in losses for the Partnership.

   Metals (-): Gold prices rallied to a ten month high in May before reversing
course amid rumors that Russia would sell a portion of its gold reserve. Long
gold positions incurred losses for the Partnership. Rate cuts by U.S. and
European central banks stirred fears of inflation driving metal prices higher.
Short positions in nickel, aluminum and copper incurred losses for the
Partnership.

   Stock indices (-): Weak global economies and concerns regarding corporate
earnings resulted in continued poor performance in the equity markets. London
FTSE and Nikkei Dow positions resulted in losses for the Partnership.

   Energies (+): Short natural gas positions resulted in gains as increased
inventories and weakening demand drove prices downward.

   Interest income is earned on the Partnership's investment in U.S. Treasury
bills and varies monthly according to interest rates as well as the effect of
trading performance and redemptions on the level of interest-bearing funds.
Interest income from U.S. Treasury bills decreased by approximately $118,000 and
$62,000, respectively, for the six and three months ended June 30, 2001 compared
to the same periods in 2000. These declines in interest income were the result
of fewer funds being invested in U.S. Treasury bills principally due to
redemptions as well as lower interest rates during the six and three months
ended June 30, 2001 versus the corresponding periods in 2000.

   Commissions paid to PSI are calculated on the Partnership's net asset value
on the first day of each month and, therefore, vary monthly according to trading
performance and redemptions. Commissions decreased by approximately $172,000 and
$70,000, respectively, for the six and three months ended June 30, 2001 as
compared to the same periods in 2000 principally due to the effect of
redemptions on the monthly net asset values. Additionally, a portion of the
Partnership's assets were not allocated to commodities trading during June 2001
(as more fully discussed in Notes A and E to the financial statements) and,
therefore, were not subject to commissions for that month.

   All trading decisions are currently being made by Eclipse Capital Management,
Inc., Trendlogic Associates, Inc. and Appleton Capital Management ('Appleton').
Welton made trading decisions on the Welton Assets until their termination,
effective May 31, 2001. Management fees are calculated on the portion of the
Partnership's net asset value allocated to each trading manager as of the end of
each month and, therefore, are affected by trading performance and redemptions.
Management fees decreased by approximately $45,000 and $20,000, respectively,
for the six and three months ended June 30, 2001 as compared to the same periods
in 2000 primarily due to the fluctuations in monthly net asset values as
described in the discussion on commissions above. Additionally, the portion of
assets which were not allocated to commodities trading during June 2001, as
referred to in the discussion on commissions above, were not subject to
management fees.

   Incentive fees are based on the 'New High Net Trading Profits' generated by
each trading manager, as defined in each advisory agreement among the
Partnership, the General Partner and each trading manager. Appleton generated
sufficient trading profits during the first quarter of 2001 to earn incentive
fees of approximately $61,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2001. No
incentive fees were incurred by the Partnership during the six and three months
ended June 30, 2000.

   General and Administrative expenses for the six and three months ended June
30, 2001 were relatively comparable to the corresponding periods in 2000. These
expenses include reimbursements of costs incurred by the General Partner on
behalf of the Partnership, in addition to accounting, audit, tax and legal fees
as well as printing and postage costs related to reports sent to limited
partners.
