1. General

     F-1000  Futures  Fund  L.P.,  Series  IX (the  "Partnership")  is a limited
partnership organized under the laws of the State of New York on August 25, 1992
to engage in the  speculative  trading of a  diversified  portfolio of commodity
interests  including  futures  contracts,  options  and forward  contracts.  The
commodity  interests that are traded by the Partnership are volatile and involve
a high degree of market risk. The Partnership  maintains a portion of its assets
in principal  amounts  stripped from U.S.  Treasury  Bonds under the  Treasury's
STRIPS program for which payments are due approximately nine years from the date
trading commenced ("Zero  Coupons").  The Partnership uses such Zero Coupons and
its other assets to margin its commodities  account.  The Partnership  commenced
trading on March 9, 1993.

     Smith  Barney  Futures  Management  Inc.  acts as the general  partner (the
"General  Partner") of the Partnership.  The  Partnership's  commodity broker is
Salomon Smith Barney Inc.  ("SSB").  SSB is an affiliate of the General Partner.
The  General  Partner is wholly  owned by Salomon  Smith  Barney  Holdings  Inc.
("SSBH"),  which is the sole owner of SSB. SSBH is a wholly owned  subsidiary of
Citigroup Inc. All trading  decisions are made for the  Partnership by Trendview
Management Inc. and Rabar Market Research, Inc. (collectively, the "Advisors").

     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 March 31,  1999 and the  results of its  operations  for the three
months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998.  These  financial  statements  present the
results of interim periods and do not include all disclosures  normally provided
in annual financial statements.  It is suggested that these financial statements
be read in conjunction  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, 1998.

     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.

Partnership the legal right to net unrealized gains and losses.

         All of the commodity  interests  owned by the  Partnership are held for
trading purposes. The fair value of these commodity interests, including options
thereon, if applicable,  at March 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998 was $20,917 and
$54,426,  respectively,  and the average  fair value during the three and twelve
months  then ended,  based on monthly  calculation  was  $48,899  and  $113,655,
respectively.

4.       Financial Instrument Risk:

         The  Partnership  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.  These financial instruments
may  include  forwards,  futures  and  options,  whose  value is  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 in the  statement of financial  condition and
not  represented  by the contract or notional  amounts of the  instruments.  The
Partnership has concentration  risk because the sole counterparty or broker with
respect to the Partnership's assets is SSB.

         The General  Partner  monitors  and  controls  the  Partnership's  risk
exposure  on a  daily  basis  through  financial,  credit  and  risk  management
monitoring systems and,  accordingly  believes that it has effective  procedures
for evaluating and limiting the credit and market risks to which the Partnership
is subject.  These monitoring systems allow the General Partner to statistically
analyze actual  trading  results with risk adjusted  performance  indicators and
correlation statistics. In addition,  on-line monitoring systems provide account
analysis  of  futures,   forwards  and  options  positions  by  sector,   margin
requirements, gain and loss transactions and collateral positions.

         The notional or  contractual  amounts of these  instruments,  while not
recorded in the financial  statements,  reflect the extent of the  Partnership's
involvement in these instruments.

         At  March  31,  1999,  the  notional  or  contractual  amounts  of  the
Partnership's  commitment to purchase and sell these instruments was $15,331,574
and $5,548,481, respectively, as detailed below. All of these instruments mature
within  one  year  of  March  31,  1999.  However,  due  to  the  nature  of the
Partnership's business,  these instruments may not be held to maturity. At March
31, 1999, the fair value of the  Partnership's  derivatives,  including  options
thereon, if applicable, was $20,917, as detailed below.

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  and  cash  equivalents,  Zero  Coupons,  net  unrealized  appreciation
(depreciation)  on open  futures and forward  contracts,  commodity  options and
interest  receivable.  Because of the low margin deposits  normally  required in
commodity  futures  trading,  relatively  small  price  movements  may result in
substantial losses to the Partnership.  While substantial losses could lead to a
substantial  decrease in liquidity no such losses occurred in the  Partnership's
first quarter of 1999.

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

         For  the  three  months  ended  March  31,  1999,  Partnership  capital
decreased 7.5% from $6,601,095 to $6,109,232.  This decrease was attributable to
the redemption of 303 Units  resulting in an outflow of $405,941  coupled with a
loss from  operations  of $85,922  during the three months ended March 31, 1999.
Future  redemptions  can impact the amount of funds available for investments in
commodity contract positions in subsequent periods.

 Risk of Computer System Failure (Year 2000 Issue)

        The  Year  2000  issue  is the  result  of  existing  computers  in many
businesses  using only two digits to  identify a year in the date  field.  These
computers and programs,  often  referred to as  "information  technology,"  were
designed and developed without  considering the impact of the upcoming change in
the century. If not corrected,  many computer  applications could fail or create
erroneous  results at the Year 2000. Such systems and processes are dependent on
correctly identifying dates in the next century.

        The General Partner  administers the business of the Partnership through
various  systems and  processes  maintained  by SSBH and SSB. In  addition,  the
operation of the Partnership is dependent on the capability of the Partnership's
Advisors,  the brokers and exchanges through which the Advisors trade, and other
third  parties to prepare  adequately  for the Year 2000 impact on their systems
and processes.  The Partnership itself has no systems or information  technology
applications relevant to its operations.

        The General Partner,  SSB, SSBH and their parent organization  Citigroup
Inc. have undertaken a comprehensive,  firm-wide evaluation of both internal and
external  systems  (systems  related to third parties) to determine the specific
modifications  needed to  prepare  for the year  2000.  The  combined  Year 2000

<PAGE>

program in SSB is  expected to cost  approximately  $140  million  over the four
years from 1996 through  1999,  and involve over 450 people at the peak staffing
level.  SSB expects to complete all  compliance and  certification  work by June
1999.  At this time,  over 95% of SSBH systems  have  completed  the  correction
process  and are Year 2000  compliant.  Over 73% of the systems  have  completed
certification testing. The Year 2000 project at SSBH remains on schedule.

        The systems and  components  supporting the General  Partner's  business
that require  remediation have been identified and modifications  have been made
to bring them into Year 2000 compliance.  Testing of these systems was completed
in the fourth quarter of 1998. Final testing and  certification  are expected to
be completed by the end of the first quarter of 1999.

        This expenditure and the General  Partner's  resources  dedicated to the
preparation  for Year  2000 do not and will not have a  material  impact  on the
operation or results of the Partnership.

        The General  Partner has  requested  and  received  statements  from the
Advisors that each has undertaken its own  evaluation and  remediation  plans to
identify any of its computer systems that are Year 2000 vulnerable. Each Advisor
has  confirmed  it is taking  immediate  actions  to  remedy  those  systems  as
necessary. The General Partner will continue to inquire into and to confirm each
Advisor's readiness for Year 2000.

        The most likely and most significant risk to the Partnership  associated
with the lack of Year 2000  readiness  is the failure of outside  organizations,
including the commodities exchanges, clearing organizations,  or regulators with
which the  Partnership  interacts to resolve  their Year 2000 issues in a timely
manner.  This risk could  involve the  inability to  determine  the value of the
Partnership  at some  point  in time  and  would  make  effecting  purchases  or
redemptions  of Units in the  Partnership  infeasible  until such  valuation was
determinable.

        SSB has successfully  participated in industry-wide  testing  including:
The Streetwide  Beta Testing  organized by the Securities  Industry  Association
(SIA), a government  securities  clearing test with the Federal  Reserve Bank of
New York,  The Depository  Trust Company,  and The Bank of New York, and Futures
Industry  Association  participants  test. The firm is also participating in the
streetwide testing which commenced in March 1999.

        It is possible  that  problems may occur that would require some time to
repair. Moreover, it is possible that problems will occur outside SSBH for which
SSBH could  experience  a  secondary  effect.  Consequently,  SSBH is  preparing
comprehensive,  written  contingency plans so that alternative  procedures and a
framework for critical decisions are defined before any potential crisis occurs.

        The  goal  of  Year  2000  contingency  planning  is a set of  alternate
procedures to be used in the event of a critical  system failure or a failure by
a supplier or  counterparty.  Planning work was completed in December  1998, and
testing of alternative procedures will be conducted in the first half of 1999.

Results of Operations

         During the Partnership's first quarter of 1999, the net asset value per
Unit decreased 1.3% from $1,357.41 to $1,339.74 as compared to the first quarter
of 1998 in which the net asset value per Unit decreased  0.3%.  The  Partnership
experienced a net trading loss before brokerage  commissions and related fees in
the first quarter of 1999 of $77,390.  Losses were primarily attributable to the
trading of currencies,  non-U.S.  interest rates, livestock,  indices and metals
and were partially  offset by gains in U.S.  interest  rates,  energy  products,
grains  and  softs.  The  Partnership  experienced  a net  trading  loss  before
brokerage  commissions and related fees in the first quarter of 1998 of $36,230.
Losses  were  primarily  attributable  to the  trading  of  grains,  currencies,
livestock,  softs,  U.S.  interest rates and metals and were partially offset by
gains in indices, non-U.S. interest rates and energy products.

         Commodity futures markets are highly volatile. Broad price fluctuations
and rapid inflation increase the risks involved in commodity  trading,  but also
increase the possibility of profit. The profitability of the Partnership depends
on the  existence  of major  price  trends and the  ability of the  Advisors  to
identify  correctly  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.

         Interest  income  on 75%  of the  Partnership's  daily  average  equity
maintained in cash was earned on the monthly average 13-week U.S.  Treasury bill
yield.  Also included in interest  income is the  amortization of original issue
discount on the Zero Coupons based on the interest  method.  Interest income for
the three  months  ended March 31, 1999  decreased by $10,045 as compared to the
corresponding  period in 1998. The decrease in interest  income is primarily due
to the  effect of  redemptions  on the  Partnership's  Zero  Coupons  and equity
maintained in cash.

         Brokerage commissions are calculated on the adjusted net asset value on
the last day of each month and, therefore, vary according to trading performance
and  redemptions.  Accordingly,  they  must  be  compared  in  relation  to  the
fluctuations in the monthly net asset values. Commissions and fees for the three
months ended March 31, 1999 decreased by $4,159 as compared to the corresponding
period in 1998.

         All trading  decisions for the  Partnership are currently being made by
the  Advisors.   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 months ended
March 31, 1999  decreased  by $398 as compared  to the  corresponding  period in
1998.

         Incentive fees are based on the new trading  profits  generated by each
Advisor as defined in the  advisory  agreements  between  the  Partnership,  the
General  Partner and each Advisor.  No incentive  fees were earned for the three
months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998.

Item 3.     Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures of 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
included 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.

     The following  table indicate the trading Value at Risk associated with the
Partnership's  open positions by market  category as of March 31, 1999. All open
position  trading  risk  exposures  of the  Partnership  have been  included  in
calculating the figures set forth below. As of March 31, 1999, the Partnership's
total  capitalization  was $6,109,232.  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, 1998.
