See accompanying notes. -6- THE FULCRUM FUND LIMITED PARTNERSHIP NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) Note 1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES A. General Description of the Partnership The Fulcrum Fund Limited Partnership (the Partnership) is a Connecticut limited partnership which operates as a commodity pool. The Partnership engages in the speculative trading of futures contracts and options on futures contracts. It is subject to the regulations of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, an agency of the United States (U.S.) government which regulates most aspects of the commodity futures industry; rules of the National Futures Association, an industry self-regulatory organization; and the requirements of commodity exchanges and Futures Commission Merchants (brokers) through which the Partnership trades. The Partnership is a registrant with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Act). As a registrant, the Partnership is subject to the regulations of the SEC and the informational requirements of the Act. B. Method of Reporting The Partnership's financial statements are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require the use of certain estimates made by the Partnership's management. C. Commodities Gains or losses are realized when contracts are liquidated. Net unrealized gains or losses on open contracts (the difference between contract trade price and quoted market price) are reflected in the statement of financial condition. Any change in net unrealized gain or loss from the preceding period is reported in the statement of operations. Brokerage commissions include other trading fees and are charged to expense when contracts are opened. D. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents includes cash, short-term time deposits and investments in money market mutual funds. Interest income includes interest-equivalent dividends on money market mutual funds. E. Fixed Income Securities Fixed income securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Any change in net unrealized gain or loss from the preceding period is reported in the statement of operations. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. -7- THE FULCRUM FUND LIMITED PARTNERSHIP NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (Unaudited) Note 1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) F. Income Taxes The Partnership prepares calendar year U.S. and applicable state information tax returns and reports to the partners their allocable shares of the Partnership's income, expenses and trading gains or losses. G. Foreign Currency Transactions The Partnership's functional currency is the U.S. dollar; however, it transacts business in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars at the rates in effect at the date of the statement of financial condition. Income and expense items denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars at the rates in effect during the period. Gains and losses resulting from the translation to U.S. dollars are reported in income currently. H. Reclassification Certain amounts in the statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2001 were reclassified to conform with the presentation for the six months ended June 30, 2002. Note 2. GENERAL PARTNER The General Partner of the Partnership is Kenmar Advisory Corp., which conducts and manages the business of the Partnership. The Limited Partnership Agreement requires the General Partner to maintain a capital account of no less than the lesser of 1% of the aggregate capital accounts of all partners or $500,000. For managing the continuing offering of units, the General Partner receives a monthly offering fee equal to 0.25% (3% annually) of that month's beginning Net Asset Value (as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement) of the Partnership. The General Partner rebates to One Million Dollar Investors (as defined in the Confidential Private Placement Memorandum and Disclosure Document) who invested in the Partnership prior to August 1, 2000, a monthly amount equal to two-thirds of the offering fee applicable to such One Million Dollar Investors. Effective April 1, 2002, the General Partner also rebates to an affiliated investment fund the entire offering fee applicable to such fund. All rebates to One Million Dollar Investors and the affiliated investment fund are made by issuing additional Units. A portion of the brokerage commissions paid by the Partnership to the broker is, in turn, paid by the broker to the General Partner. -8- THE FULCRUM FUND LIMITED PARTNERSHIP NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (Unaudited) Note 3. COMMODITY TRADING ADVISORS The Partnership has an advisory agreement with Beacon Management Corporation (USA) (Beacon), a commodity trading advisor, pursuant to which the Partnership pays a monthly management fee of 1/12 of 2% (2% annually) of the month-end Net Asset Value of the subaccount (as defined in the advisory agreement) and a quarterly incentive fee equal to 20% of Net New Trading Profits (as defined). Beacon pays up to 22.5% of its management and incentive fees to the General Partner. During the period November 1, 2000 to October 18, 2001, the Partnership had an advisory agreement with Stonebrook Structured Products, LLC (Stonebrook), also a commodity trading advisor, pursuant to which the Partnership paid a monthly management fee equal to 1/12 of 1% (1% annually) of the month-end Net Asset Value of the subaccount (as defined) and a quarterly incentive fee equal to 10% of Net New Trading Profits (as defined). Stonebrook paid its entire incentive fee to the General Partner. During the period November 1, 2000 to March 31, 2001, the General Partner waived its right to all incentive fees to which it was entitled from Beacon and Stonebrook. Accordingly, such incentive fees were not ultimately charged to the Partnership, and the gross amount of advisor incentive fees reflected in the statements of operations has been reduced after total expenses by the advisor incentive fees waived which amounted to $0 and $123,124 during the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Note 4. DEPOSITS WITH BROKER The Partnership deposits cash with Man Financial Inc. to act as broker, subject to Commodity Futures Trading Commission regulations and various exchange and broker requirements. Margin requirements are satisfied by the deposit of cash with such broker. The Partnership earns interest income on its cash deposited with the broker. Note 5. SUBSCRIPTIONS, DISTRIBUTIONS AND REDEMPTIONS Investments in the Partnership are made by subscription agreement, subject to acceptance by the General Partner. The subscription price is equal to the Net Asset Value of the units purchased plus a 5% selling commission, unless such selling commission is waived in whole or in part by the General Partner. Additions to partners' capital are shown net of such selling commissions which amounted to $0 and $7,388 during the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The Partnership is not required to make distributions, but may do so at the sole discretion of the General Partner. A Limited Partner may request and receive redemption of units owned, subject to restrictions in the Limited Partnership Agreement. -9- THE FULCRUM FUND LIMITED PARTNERSHIP NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (Unaudited) Note 6. TRADING ACTIVITIES AND RELATED RISKS The Partnership engages in the speculative trading of U.S. and foreign futures contracts and options on U.S. and foreign futures contracts (collectively, "derivatives"). The Partnership is exposed to both market risk, the risk arising from changes in the market value of the contracts, and credit risk, the risk of failure by another party to perform according to the terms of a contract. Purchase and sale of futures and options on futures contracts requires margin deposits with the broker. Additional deposits may be necessary for any loss on contract value. The Commodity Exchange Act requires a broker to segregate all customer transactions and assets from such broker's proprietary activities. A customer's cash and other property (for example, U.S. Treasury bills) deposited with a broker are considered commingled with all other customer funds subject to the broker's segregation requirements. In the event of a broker's insolvency, recovery may be limited to a pro rata share of segregated funds available. It is possible that the recovered amount could be less than total cash and other property deposited. The Partnership has a substantial portion of its assets on deposit with financial institutions in connection with its cash management activities. In the event of a financial institution's insolvency, recovery of Partnership assets on deposit may be limited to account insurance or other protection afforded such deposits. For derivatives, risks arise from changes in the market value of the contracts. Theoretically, the Partnership is exposed to a market risk equal to the notional contract value of futures contracts purchased and unlimited liability on such contracts sold short. As both a buyer and seller of options, the Partnership pays or receives a premium at the outset and then bears the risk of unfavorable changes in the price of the contract underlying the option. Written options expose the Partnership to potentially unlimited liability, and purchased options expose the Partnership to a risk of loss limited to the premiums paid. The General Partner has established procedures to actively monitor market risk and minimize credit risk, although there can be no assurance that it will, in fact, succeed in doing so. The Limited Partners bear the risk of loss only to the extent of the market value of their respective investments and, in certain specific circumstances, distributions and redemptions received. Note 7. INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The statement of financial condition as of June 30, 2002, including the June 30, 2002 condensed schedule of investments, the statements of operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, and the statements of changes in partners' capital (net asset value) for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, are unaudited. In the opinion of management, such financial statements reflect all adjustments, which were of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position as of June 30, 2002, and the results of operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001. -10- THE FULCRUM FUND LIMITED PARTNERSHIP NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (Unaudited) Note 8. FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS The following information presents per unit operating performance data and other supplemental financial data for the entire three months and six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001. This information has been derived from information presented in the financial statements.

Total returns are calculated based on the change in value of a unit during the period. An individual partner's total returns and ratios may vary from the above total returns and ratios based on different fee arrangements and the timing of additions and redemptions. ---------------------------- (1) Excludes brokerage commissions and other trading fees. (2) Includes brokerage commissions and other trading fees. (3) The net investment (loss) per unit is calculated by dividing the net investment (loss) by the average number of units outstanding during the period. The net realized and change in unrealized gain from trading is a balancing amount necessary to reconcile the change in net asset value per unit with the other per unit information. (4) Excludes brokerage commissions, other trading fees and advisor incentive fees. (5) Net of 1.14% annualized effect of advisor incentive fees waived. (6) Not annualized. (7) Annualized. -11- ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. The assets of the Fulcrum Fund Limited Partnership, formerly The Dennis Fund Limited Partnership (the "Partnership") are used to engage, directly or indirectly, in the speculative trading of (1) commodities, futures contracts, forward contracts, foreign exchange commitments, exchange for physicals, swap contracts, spot (cash) commodities and other items, options on the foregoing, and any rights pertaining to the foregoing contracts, instruments or investments ("Commodities") and (2) options, warrants, or other rights and any other investment or transaction (together with the Commodities, "Investments") that the Partnership's general partner, Kenmar Advisory Corp. (the "General Partner") deems, in its sole discretion, to be consistent with the objectives of the Partnership. From time to time, a portion of such assets may be used for transactions in the cash markets or for interbank trading. The assets of the Partnership are deposited with Man Financial Inc. (the "Broker") in a trading account established by the Partnership for the commodity trading advisor and are used by the Partnership as margin to engage in trading. Such assets are held in either a non-interest bearing bank account or in securities approved by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission for investment of customer funds. In addition, certain of the Partnership's assets may also be placed in a custodial account with a cash manager to maximize the interest earned on assets not committed as margin. The commodity trading advisor for the Partnership is the Meka program of the Beacon Management Corporation ("Beacon" or the "Advisor"). The Advisor is the sole advisor for the Partnership. CAPITAL RESOURCES The Partnership does not have, nor does it expect to have, any capital assets. Redemptions and sales of units of limited partnership interests ("Units") in the future will affect the amount of funds available for trading Investments in subsequent periods. There are only three factors that affect the Partnership's capital resources: (1) the trading profit or loss generated by the Advisor (including interest income); (2) the money invested or redeemed by the limited partners of the Partnership (the "Limited Partners"); and (3) capital invested or redeemed by the General Partner. The General Partner has maintained, and shall maintain, at all times a capital account in such an amount, up to a total of $500,000, as is necessary for the General Partner to maintain a one percent (1%) interest in the capital, income and losses of the Partnership. All capital contributions by the General Partner necessary to maintain such capital account balance shall be evidenced by Units of general partnership interest, each of which shall have an initial value equal to the Net Asset Value per Unit (as defined below) at the time of such contribution. The General Partner, in its sole discretion, may withdraw any excess above its required capital contribution without notice to the Limited Partners. The General Partner, in its sole discretion, may also contribute any greater amount to the Partnership, for which it shall receive, at its option, additional Units of general partnership interest at their then-current Net Asset Value. -12- "Net Asset Value" of the Partnership is defined as total assets of the Partnership, including, but not limited to, all cash and cash equivalents, accrued interest, earned discount, and open Commodities positions, less total liabilities, including, but not limited to, brokerage commissions that would be payable with respect to the closing of open Commodities positions, all as determined in accordance with the principles set forth in the Limited Partnership Agreement of the Partnership, dated June 18, 1996 and as amended on December 15, 1997 and further amended on October 10, 2000 (the "Partnership Agreement") or, where no such principles are specified therein, in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis ("GAAP"). The term "Net Asset Value per Unit" is defined in the Partnership Agreement to mean the Net Asset Value of the Partnership divided by the number of Units outstanding as of the date of determination. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The success of the Partnership is dependent upon the ability of the Advisor to generate trading profits through the speculative trading of Investments sufficient to produce capital appreciation after payment of all fees and expenses. Future results will depend in large part upon the Investment markets in general, the performance of the Advisor, the amount of additions and redemptions, and changes in interest rates. Due to the highly leveraged nature of Investment trading, small price movements may result in substantial losses. Because of the nature of these factors and their interaction, it is impossible to predict future operating results. The Partnership incurs substantial charges from the payment of brokerage commissions to the Broker, management and/or incentive fees to the Advisor, management fees, offering fees and/or incentive fees to the General Partner and operating expenses. The Partnership is required to make substantial trading profits to avoid depletion and exhaustion of its assets from the above-mentioned fees and expenses. Due to the nature of the Partnership's business, the Partnership's trading results depend on the Advisor and the ability of its individual trading system to take advantage of price movements or other profit opportunities in the Investment markets. The Advisor trades in various markets at different times and prior activity in a particular market does not mean that such markets will be actively traded by the Advisor or will be profitable in the future. Consequently, the results of operations of the Partnership can only be discussed in the context of the overall trading activities of the Partnership, the Advisor's trading activities on behalf of the Partnership as a whole and how the Partnership has performed in the past. In general, Commodity Trading Advisors or CTAs analyze the movement of prices in the commodity and financial futures markets to identify trends and the opportunities for profit which accompany them. Because a CTA can take long or short positions in the futures markets, the direction of a trend is less important than the existence of a trend itself. The Advisor or another CTA has the potential to generate profits when prices are identified as trending downward, by going short or selling ahead of a price decline, and when prices appear to be trending upward, by going long or buying ahead of the rise in price. When prices are moving sideways (i.e., with little movement up or down) or are exhibiting significant short-term volatility (such as rapid intra-day or inter-day price swings) trends are few and far between, and CTA profits can be flat or negative. -13- Set forth below is a comparison of the results of operations of the Partnership for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2001. As of June 30, 2002, the Net Asset Value of the Partnership was $11,825,551 an increase of approximately 15.13% from its Net Asset Value of $10,271,180 at March 31, 2002. The Partnership's subscriptions and redemptions for the quarter ended June 30, 2002 totaled $23,966 and $842,210, respectively. For the quarter ended June 30, 2002, the Partnership had revenues comprised of $1,987,342 in realized gains, $618,300 in change in unrealized gains and $34,843 in interest income compared to revenues comprised of $5,900,616 in realized gains, ($5,636,799) in change in unrealized losses and $161,244 in interest income for the same period in 2001. The total income for the second quarter of 2002 increased by $2,215,424 from the same period in 2001, while total expenses decreased by $277,108 between these periods. The Net Asset Value per Unit increased 23.87% from $704.53 at March 30, 2002 to $872.70 at June 30, 2002. The Partnership's positive performance for the quarter ended June 30, 2002 resulted primarily from currencies, U.S. interests rates, meats and gold. The Net Asset Value of the Partnership decreased $1,979,939, or 14.34%, from December 31, 2001 through June 30, 2002. The Partnership's subscriptions and redemptions for the six months ended June 30, 2002 totaled $767,204 and $2,558,749, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2002, the Partnership had revenues comprised of ($242,592) in realized losses, $537,394 in change in unrealized gains and $71,816 in interest income compared to revenues comprised of $6,842,835 in realized gains, ($3,957,750) in change in unrealized losses and $310,927 in interest income for the same period in 2001. The total income for the first six months of 2002 decreased by $2,829,394 from the same period in 2001 while expenses decreased by $975,638 between these periods. The Net Asset Value per Unit decreased 0.58% from $877.83 at December 31, 2001 to $872.70 at June 30, 2002. For the reasons described in this Management's Discussion and Analysis, past performance is not indicative of future results. As a result, any recent increases in net realized or unrealized trading gains may have no bearing on any results that may be obtained in the future. LIQUIDITY Although there is no public market for the Units, a Limited Partner may redeem its Units in the Partnership as of any month-end upon ten (10) days' written notice to the General Partner in the form of a request for redemption. With respect to the Partnership's trading, in general, the Advisor will trade only Investments that have sufficient liquidity to enable it to enter and close out positions without causing major price movements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, most United States commodity exchanges limit the amount by which certain commodities may move during a single day by regulations referred to as "daily price fluctuation limits" or "daily limits." Pursuant to such regulations, no trades may be executed on any given day at prices beyond daily limits. The price of a futures contract has occasionally moved the daily limit for several consecutive days, with little or no trading, thereby effectively preventing a party from liquidating its position. While the occurrence of such an event may reduce or effectively eliminate the liquidity of a particular market, it will not limit ultimate losses and may in fact substantially increase losses because of this inability to liquidate -14- unfavorable positions. In addition, if there is little or no trading in a particular futures or forward contract that the Partnership is trading, whether such illiquidity is caused by any of the above reasons or otherwise, the Partnership may be unable to execute trades at favorable prices and/or may be unable or unwilling to liquidate its position prior to its expiration date, thereby requiring the Partnership to make or take delivery of the underlying interest of the Investment. The Partnership's trading also may be impacted by the various conflicts of interest between the Partnership and the General Partner, the Advisor, the Broker, and their affiliates. SAFE HARBOR STATEMENT The discussions above and under the heading "Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" contain certain "forward-looking statements" (as such term is defined in Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that are based on the beliefs of the Partnership, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, the Partnership. Words such as "expects," "anticipates" and similar expressions have been used to identify "forward-looking statements" but are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. A number of important factors could cause the Partnership's actual results, performance or achievements for 2002 and beyond to differ materially from the results, performance or achievements expressed in, or implied by, such forward-looking statements. These factors include, without limitation, risk of failure by third parties to perform according to contract terms and the factors described above and under the heading "Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk." See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001 for further discussion. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK. Derivative instruments involve varying degrees of off-balance sheet market risk. Changes in the level or volatility of interest rates or foreign currency exchange rates or the market values of the financial instruments or commodities underlying such derivative instruments frequently result in changes in the Partnership's unrealized profit (loss) on such derivative instruments as reflected in the Statements of Financial Condition included herein. The Partnership's exposure to market risk is influenced by a number of factors, including the relationships among derivative instruments held by the Partnership, as well as the volatility and liquidity of the markets in which the financial instruments are traded. There has been no material change, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, in the sources of the Partnership's exposure to market risk. The General Partner has procedures in place which are intended to control the Partnership's exposure to market risk, although there can be no assurance that these procedures will, in fact, succeed in doing so. These procedures focus primarily on monitoring the trading of the Advisor selected from time to time for the Partnership, calculating the Net Asset Value of the Advisor's respective Partnership accounts as of the close of business on each day and reviewing outstanding positions for over-concentrations. While the General Partner will not itself intervene in the markets to hedge or diversify the Partnership's market exposure, the General Partner may urge the Advisor to reallocate positions, or itself reallocate Partnership assets among different -15- advisors (although typically only as of the end of a month) in an attempt to avoid over-concentrations. However, such interventions would be unusual. Except in cases in which it appears that the Advisor has begun to deviate from past practice or trading policies or to be trading erratically, the General Partner's basic risk control procedures consist of the ongoing process of Advisor monitoring and selection, with the market risk controls being applied by the Advisor itself. PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS. In June, 1996, the Partnership commenced a private placement of Units in reliance on the exemptions afforded by, among others, Section 4(2) of the 1933 Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder. Units are offered monthly at a price per Unit equal to the then-current Net Asset Value per Unit plus a selling commission equal to 5% unless such selling commission is waived in whole or in part. The minimum subscription is $26,250 for new investors other than Employee Benefit Plans or $10,500 for Employee Benefit Plans and existing Limited Partners, which amounts include selling commissions of $1,250 and $500, respectively. During the second quarter of 2002, 30.0237 Units were sold for a total of $23,965.51. -16- ITEM 6. EXHIBITS AND REPORTS ON FORM 8-K.
