All total returns on this page assume dividends and distributions were reinvested. Index figures do not include trading and management costs, which would lower performance. Indices are unmanaged and cannot be invested in directly. Performance results less than one year are not annualized.
For index definitions, please see the Glossary.
Performance does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or on the redemption or sale of fund shares.
Shares are bought and sold at market price, which may be higher or lower than the net asset value (NAV). Brokerage commissions will reduce returns.
Fixed income securities are subject to increased loss of principal during periods of rising interest rates. An investment in the fund(s) is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) or any other government agency.
TIPS generally have lower yields than conventional fixed rate bonds and will likely decline in price during periods of deflation, which could result in losses.
Index ownership — Bloomberg Index Services Limited and its affiliates (collectively, Bloomberg) and Bloomberg’s licensors, including Barclays Bank PLC (Barclays), own all proprietary rights in the Bloomberg Barclays Indices.

1 ETF performance must be shown based on both a Market Price and a Net Asset Value (NAV) basis. The fund’s per share net asset value (NAV) is the value of one share of the fund. NAV is calculated by taking the fund’s total assets (including the market value of securities owned), subtracting liabilities, and dividing by the number of shares outstanding. The NAV Return is based on the NAV of the fund, and the Market Price Return is based on the market price per share of the fund. The price used to calculate market return (Market Price) is determined using the Official Closing Price of the primary stock exchange (generally, 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) and may not represent the returns you would receive if shares were traded at other times. Market Price and NAV returns assume that dividends and capital gain distributions have been reinvested in the fund at Market Price and NAV, respectively.

From the President

Jonathan de St. Paer
President and CEO of
Charles Schwab Investment
Management, Inc. and the
funds covered in this report.
Dear Shareholder,
Amid the numerous headlines catching the attention of investors in recent months, one big story has been a substantial shift in interest rate expectations. As late as the end of 2018, most observers were predicting that the Federal Reserve (Fed) would continue to raise rates in 2019. How quickly things change. By June 2019, the outlook had reversed entirely as Fed policy makers cited uncertainty about the economy. Although the Fed left interest rates unchanged at their June meeting, markets were signaling that rates will likely be cut by the end of this year. (Following the end of the period, at their July meeting, the Fed cut interest rates by 0.25%.)
It’s a good reminder that the direction of markets and interest rates is never a certainty, even if an economist or analyst might seem very confident when discussing the matter on any given day. This is why, when it comes to building a portfolio, we believe investors benefit from holding a mix of asset classes—including exposure to an assortment of bonds with varying maturities—that can serve their long-term goals through ever-changing market conditions. At Charles Schwab Investment Management, we are committed to offering core investment products, with a focus on low pricing and transparency, to help make it easier for you to build diversification into your investment portfolio.
The Schwab Fixed-Income ETFs are a prime example of this approach, giving you convenient and low-cost options for gaining access to different segments of the fixed income market. We understand that investors allocate to bonds for a variety of reasons, such as generating income and preserving capital. With among the lowest expenses in the industry, the Schwab Fixed-Income ETFs can help investors realize these benefits without the typical cost barriers.
Since we launched our first ETF products in 2009, Charles Schwab Investment Management has become one of the largest and fastest-growing ETF providers in the country—all while staying focused on what investors need and want to help them achieve long-term success. And, although we can’t take all of the surprises out of investing, we can continue to work hard to give investors straightforward products and solutions that can help them build a portfolio that is positioned to help weather the inevitable market ups and downs.
Thank you for investing with Charles Schwab Investment Management, and for trusting us to help you achieve your financial goals. For more information about the Schwab Fixed-Income ETFs, please continue reading this report. In addition, you can find further details about these funds by visiting our website at www.schwabfunds.com. We are also happy to hear from you at 1-877-824-5615.
Sincerely,
At Charles Schwab Investment Management, we are committed to offering core investment products, with a focus on low pricing and transparency, to help make it easier for you to build diversification into your investment portfolio.
Diversification and asset allocation strategies do not ensure a profit and cannot protect against losses in a declining market.

The Investment Environment

Over the six-month reporting period ended June 30, 2019, fixed-income markets generated positive returns. Despite signs of weakening global growth, stock markets were robust, with major U.S. market indices achieving multiple record highs during the period. Although trade tensions between the U.S. and China, as well as the U.S. and Mexico, continued during the period, volatility in U.S. markets moderated for the most part, rising slightly as stocks weakened in early May when negotiations between China and the U.S. stalled. In this environment, the Bloomberg Barclays US Aggregate Bond Index returned 6.11%, while the Bloomberg Barclays US Treasury 1-3 Year Index and the Bloomberg Barclays US Treasury 3-10 Year Index returned 2.47% and 5.11%, respectively. Over the same period, the Bloomberg Barclays US Treasury Inflation-Linked Bond Index (Series-L) returned 6.15%.
After growing concerns in late 2018 about weakness in the U.S. economy, the economic outlook brightened slightly in the first six months of 2019. Gross domestic product (GDP) grew at an annual rate of 3.1% in the first quarter of 2019, up from 2.2% in the last quarter of 2018. Corporate earnings remained robust. The U.S. labor market remained strong, with the unemployment rate near an 18-year low. The inflation rate ended the reporting period lower than the beginning of the reporting period, but up from earlier lows in January and February. Consumer confidence, which had fallen steeply in December, recovered to a near 18-year high by period end.
After enacting four short-term interest rate hikes in 2018, the Federal Reserve (Fed) held rates steady at its meetings in January, March, May, and June 2019. With the Fed having declared its intent to remain “patient” earlier in the reporting period, by June markets began to expect possible rate cuts later in 2019 due to increased uncertainties regarding the global economic outlook and the Fed’s intent to monitor incoming information in order to sustain U.S. economic expansion. The federal funds rate ended the reporting period in a target range of 2.25% to 2.50%. The Fed also announced that, in September, it would end its program of allowing securities to mature without reinvesting the proceeds to reduce the size of its balance sheet.
Outside the U.S., most central banks maintained accommodative monetary policies. The European Central Bank has held interest rates unchanged since early 2016 and in June announced that it would likely maintain those rates through mid-2020. Also in June, the Bank of Japan upheld its short-term interest rate target of –0.1%, also unchanged since 2016, and maintained its pledge to keep interest rates extremely low for an extended period. The Bank of England held its key interest rate steady at 0.75% at its June meeting and warned that it expected growth to be flat in the second quarter of 2019 due to global trade tensions and the perceived likelihood of a no-deal Brexit.

The Investment Environment (continued)

Trade tensions, global growth fears, and expectations for policy easing steered investors to less-risky assets, driving a rally in the bond market during the reporting period and pushing yields lower. (Bond yields and bond prices move in opposite directions.) The U.S. bond yield curve flattened and subsequently certain parts of the yield curve inverted as short-term yields exceeded long-term yields, raising recession concerns. The yield on the 3-month Treasury bill, which typically responds to changes in the federal funds rate, fell from 2.45% at the outset of the reporting period to 2.12% at its close.1 Longer-term yields, which are generally driven by inflation expectations and growth forecasts, also declined with the 10-year Treasury yield falling from 2.69% to 2.00% over the reporting period.1 Outside the U.S., bond yields generally remained low.

NAV is calculated by taking the fund’s total assets (including the market value of securities owned), subtracting liabilities, and dividing by the number of shares outstanding. The NAV Return is based on the NAV of the fund, and the Market Price Return is based on the market price per share of the fund. The price used to calculate market return (Market Price) is determined using the Official Closing Price of the primary stock exchange (generally, 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) and may not represent the returns you would receive if shares were traded at other times. NAV is used as a proxy for purposes of calculating Market Price Return on inception date. Market Price and NAV returns assume that dividends and capital gain distributions have been reinvested in the fund at Market Price and NAV, respectively.
3 Source for category information: Morningstar, Inc. The Morningstar Category return represents all passively- and actively-managed ETFs within the category as of the report date.
4 As stated in the prospectus.
5 The percentage may differ from the Portfolio Holdings because the above calculation is based on a percentage of total investments, whereas the calculation in the Portfolio Holdings is based on a percentage of net assets.
6 The fund may seek to obtain exposure to U.S. agency mortgage pass-through securities, in part or in full, through the use of “to-be-announced” or “TBA” transactions, which are standardized contracts for future delivery of mortgage pass-through securities in which the exact mortgage pools to be delivered are not specified until a few days prior to settlement. These transactions represented approximately 3.2% of total investments on June 30, 2019.
7 Includes the fund’s position in money market mutual funds registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

Fund Expenses (Unaudited)
Examples for a $1,000 Investment
As a fund shareholder, you may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including brokerage commissions on purchases and sales of fund shares; and, (2) ongoing costs, including management fees.
The expense examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing cost (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare this cost with the ongoing cost of investing in other mutual funds. These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested for six months beginning January 1, 2019 and held through June 30, 2019.
Actual Return lines in the table below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use this information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value ÷ $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for your fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period.”
Hypothetical Return lines in the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed return of 5% per year before expenses. Because the return used is not an actual return, it may not be used to estimate the actual ending account value or expenses you paid for the period.
You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in a fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only, and do not reflect any transactional costs, including any brokerage commissions you may pay when purchasing or selling shares of a fund. Therefore, the hypothetical return lines of the table are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

* Supranational bonds represent the debt of international organizations or institutions such as the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund, regional multilateral development banks and others.
(a) The effective maturity may be shorter than the final maturity shown because of the possibility of interim principal payments and prepayments or as the result of embedded demand features (puts or calls).
(b) Security converts to floating rate after the fixed-rate coupon period.
(c) Perpetual security with no stated maturity date.
(d) All or a portion of this security is held as collateral for delayed-delivery securities.
(e) Security or a portion of the security purchased on a delayed delivery or when-issued basis.
(f) Variable-rate security.
(g) Interest rate is subject to adjustments from time to time if a nationally recognized statistical rating organization downgrades (or subsequently upgrades) the debt rating assigned to the bond.
(h) Securities exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. These securities may be resold in transactions exempt from registrations, normally to qualified institutional buyers. At the period end, the value of these amounted to $30,409,931 or 0.5% of net assets.
(i) Guaranteed by the Republic of Germany.
(j) Zero Coupon Bond.
(k) Variable rate is determined by formula set forth in the security’s offering documents and is affected by the MBS (Mortgage-Backed Securities) pass-through rate, which is the rate earned from a securitized asset pool once management fees and guarantee fees have been paid to the securitizing corporation.
(l) Variable rate is determined by formula set forth in the security’s offering documents and is affected by the current WAC (Weighted Average Coupon), which is the weighted average gross interest rate of the securitized asset pool and is determined by the different speeds at which the underlying mortgages are paid down.
(m) Security is a type of structured mortgage-backed security (MBS) that involves tranching (i.e. dividing) the underlying MBS pools’ cash flows into securities that have varying coupon and principal payback profiles. Tranches pay an investor an interest rate, which is determined by a formula set forth in the security’s offering documents. The floating interest rate may reset once a year and is generally tied to the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), the Constant Maturity Treasury (CMT), or the Cost of Funds Index (COFI). LIBOR is the interest rate banks charge each other for short-term loans. The CMT is an index published by the Federal Reserve Board to compute an index based on the monthly average yield of a range of Treasury securities maturing at different periods, adjusted to the equivalent of a one-year maturity. The COFI is a regional index of the average interest expenses paid by financial institutions on money market accounts, passbooks, CDs, and other liabilities. A variable interest rate can also be affected by the current WAC (Weighted Average Coupon), which is the weighted average gross interest rate of the securitized asset pool and is determined by the different speeds at which the underlying mortgages are paid down.
(n) The rate shown is the 7-day yield.
(o) The rate shown is the purchase yield.

1. Business Structure of the Funds:
Each of the funds in this report is a series of Schwab Strategic Trust (the trust), a no-load, open-end management investment company. The trust is organized as a Delaware statutory trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act). The list below shows all the operational funds in the trust as of the end of the period, including the funds discussed in this report, which are highlighted:

The funds issue and redeem shares at their net asset value per share (NAV) only in large blocks of shares, typically 50,000 shares or more (Creation Units). These transactions are usually in exchange for a basket of securities and/or an amount of cash. As a practical matter, only institutions or large investors purchase or redeem Creation Units. Except when aggregated in Creation Units, shares of the funds are not redeemable securities.
Individual shares of the funds trade on national securities exchanges and elsewhere during the trading day and can only be bought and sold at market prices throughout the trading day through a broker-dealer. Because fund shares trade at market prices rather than NAV, shares may trade at a price greater than NAV (premium) or less than NAV (discount).
Each fund maintains its own account for purposes of holding assets and accounting, and is considered a separate entity for tax purposes. Within its account, each fund may also keep certain assets in segregated accounts, as required by securities law.

    
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the funds use in their preparation of financial statements. The funds follow the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standard Codification Topic 946 Financial Services — Investment Companies. The accounting policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP).
The funds may invest in certain other investment companies (underlying funds). For more information about the underlying funds’ operations and policies, please refer to those funds’ semiannual and annual reports, which are filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
(a) Security Valuation:
Under procedures approved by the funds’ Board of Trustees (the Board), the investment adviser has formed a Pricing Committee to administer the pricing and valuation of portfolio securities and other assets and to ensure that prices used for internal purposes or provided by third parties reasonably reflect fair market value. Among other things, these procedures allow the funds to utilize independent pricing services, quotations from securities and financial instrument dealers and other market sources to determine fair value.
The funds value the securities in their portfolios every business day. The funds use the following policies to value various types of securities:
•   Bonds and notes: Fixed income investments are generally valued using an evaluated price at the mid-point of the bid/ask spread provided by an approved, independent pricing service (mid-price). To determine the evaluated mid-price, a pricing service may use a variety of techniques and inputs. Techniques may include, but are not limited to, spread models that calculate an investment-specific price relative to a benchmark or yield curve models that establish a price based on yields of comparable bonds along a range of maturities. Inputs differ by valuation approach and technique, as appropriate, and examples of inputs may include, but are not limited to, interest rates, market conditions, comparable bonds, market trades, projected cash flows, credit reviews and issuer news.

Financial Notes, unaudited (continued)

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
•   Securities for which no quoted value is available: The Board has adopted procedures to fair value each fund’s securities when market prices are not “readily available” or are unreliable. For example, a fund may fair value a security when it is de-listed or its trading is halted or suspended; when a security’s primary pricing source is unable or unwilling to provide a price; or when a security’s primary trading market is closed during regular market hours. Each fund makes fair value determinations in good faith in accordance with the fund’s valuation procedures. The Pricing Committee considers a number of factors, including unobservable market inputs when arriving at fair value. The Pricing Committee may employ techniques such as the review of related or comparable assets or liabilities, related market activities, recent transactions, market multiples, book values, transactional back-testing, disposition analysis and other relevant information. The Pricing Committee regularly reviews these inputs and assumptions to calibrate the valuations. Due to the subjective and variable nature of fair value pricing, there can be no assurance that a fund could obtain the fair value assigned to the security upon the sale of such security. The Board convenes on a regular basis to review fair value determinations made by the funds pursuant to the valuation procedures.
•   Short-term securities (60 days or less to maturity): Securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less are generally valued at an evaluated price; however, such securities may be valued at their amortized cost if it approximates the security’s market value.
•   Underlying funds: Mutual funds are valued at their respective NAVs.
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures under GAAP, the funds disclose the fair value of their investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the significant inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (Level 3 measurements). If inputs used to measure the financial instruments fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the valuation. If the funds determine that either the volume and/or level of activity for an asset or liability has significantly decreased (from normal conditions for that asset or liability) or price quotations or observable inputs are not associated with orderly transactions, increased analysis and management judgment will be required to estimate fair value.
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
•   Level 1quoted prices in active markets for identical securitiesInvestments whose values are based on quoted market prices in active markets, and whose values are therefore classified as Level 1 prices, include active listed equities. Investments in mutual funds are valued daily at their NAVs, which are classified as Level 1 prices, without consideration to the classification level of the specific investments held by an underlying fund.
•   Level 2other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)Investments that trade in markets that are not considered to be active, but whose values are based on quoted market prices, dealer quotations or valuations provided by alternative pricing sources supported by observable inputs are classified as Level 2 prices. These generally include U.S. government and sovereign obligations, most government agency securities, investment-grade corporate bonds, certain mortgage products, less liquid listed equities, and state, municipal and provincial obligations.
•   Level 3significant unobservable inputs (including the funds’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)Investments whose values are classified as Level 3 prices have significant unobservable inputs, as they may trade infrequently or not at all. When observable prices are not available for these securities, the funds use one or more valuation techniques for which sufficient and reliable data is available. The inputs used by the funds in estimating the value of Level 3 prices may include the original transaction price, quoted prices for similar securities or assets in active markets, completed or pending third-party transactions in the underlying investment or comparable issuers, and changes in financial ratios or cash flows. Level 3 prices may also be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, with the amount of such discount estimated by the funds in the absence of market information. Assumptions used by the funds due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting fair value and therefore the funds’ results of operations.
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The levels associated with valuing the funds’ investments as of June 30, 2019 are disclosed in the Portfolio Holdings.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
(b) Accounting Policies for certain Portfolio Investments (if held):
Securities Lending: Under the trust’s Securities Lending Program, a fund (lender) may make short-term loans of its securities to another party (borrower) to generate additional revenue for the fund. The borrower pledges collateral in the form of cash, securities issued or fully guaranteed by the U.S. government or foreign governments, or letters of credit issued by a bank. Collateral at the individual loan level is required to be maintained on a daily marked-to-market basis in an amount at least equal to the current value of the securities loaned. The lending agent provides a fund with indemnification against borrower default (the borrower fails to return the security on loan) reducing the risk of loss as a result of default. The cash collateral of securities loaned is currently invested in money market portfolios operating under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act. Each fund bears the risk of loss with respect to the investment of cash collateral. The terms of the securities lending agreements allow the funds or the lending agent to terminate any loan at any given time and the securities must be returned within the earlier of the standard trade settlement period or the specified time period under the relevant securities lending agreement. Securities lending income, as disclosed in each fund’s Statement of Operations, if applicable, represents the income earned from the investment of the cash collateral plus any fees paid by borrowers, less the fees paid to the lending agent and broker rebates which are subject to adjustments pursuant to the securities lending agreement. On loans not collateralized by cash, a fee is received from the borrower, and is allocated between a fund and the lending agent. The aggregate market value of securities loaned will not at any time exceed one-third of the total assets of a fund, including collateral received from the loan. Securities lending fees paid to the unaffiliated lending agents start at 10% of gross lending revenue, with subsequent breakpoints to a low of 7.5%. In this context, the gross lending revenue equals the income received from the investment of cash collateral and fees paid by borrowers less any rebates paid to the borrowers. Any expenses charged by the cash collateral fund are in addition to these fees. All remaining revenue is retained by the fund, as applicable. No portion of lending revenue is paid to or retained by CSIM or any affiliate of CSIM.
As of June 30, 2019, the funds had no securities on loan.
Inflation-Protected Securities: The Schwab U.S. TIPS ETF invests in inflation-protected securities. Inflation-protected securities are fixed-income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted to the rate of inflation. The interest rate on these instruments is generally fixed at issuance at a rate lower than typical bonds or notes. Over the life of an inflation-indexed instrument, however, interest will be paid based on a principal value, which is adjusted for any inflation or deflation. Any increase or decrease in the principal amount of an inflation-protected security will be included as an addition or reduction to interest income on the Statement of Operations, even though investors do not receive their principal until maturity.
TBA Commitments: The Schwab U.S. Aggregate Bond ETF may enter into “TBA” (to-be-announced) commitments to purchase or sell securities for a fixed price at a future date. Payments or proceeds of TBA commitments are not delivered until the contractual settlement date. Unsettled TBA commitments are valued at the current market value generally according to the procedures described above in the Security Valuation section. The fund’s use of TBA commitments may cause the fund to experience higher portfolio turnover and higher transaction costs.
Agency MBS and TBA Transactions: The Treasury Market Practices Group (TMPG) of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York recommended the margining of certain forward-settling Agency MBS transactions, including TBAs, to reduce counterparty credit risk. The TMPG recommended market participants exchange two-way variation margin on a regular basis. The Schwab U.S. Aggregate Bond ETF posts and receives variation margin with certain counterparties in instances where the unrealized gain/loss on such transactions exceeded certain pre-determined thresholds. The variation margin, if any, is disclosed on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Delayed Delivery Transactions and When-Issued Securities: During the period, certain funds transacted in securities on a delayed delivery or when-issued basis. Payment and delivery may take place after the customary settlement period for that security. The price of the underlying securities and the date when the securities will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. The securities purchased on a delayed delivery or when-issued basis are identified as such in the funds’ Portfolio Holdings. The funds may receive compensation for interest forgone in the purchase of a delayed delivery or when-issued security. With respect to purchase commitments, the funds identify securities as segregated in their records with a value at least equal to the amount of the commitment. Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the underlying securities or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract’s terms, or if the issuer does not issue the securities due to political, economic, or other factors.
(c) Security Transactions:
Security transactions are recorded as of the date the order to buy or sell the security is executed. Realized gains or losses from security transactions are based on the identified costs of the securities involved. Gains and losses from paydowns on mortgage and asset backed securities are recorded as adjustments to interest income.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
(d) Investment Income:
Interest income is recorded as it accrues. If a fund buys a debt security at a discount (less than face value) or a premium (more than face value), it amortizes premiums and accretes discounts from the purchase settlement date up to maturity. The fund then increases (in the case of discounts) or reduces (in the case of premiums) the income it records from the security. Certain securities may be callable (meaning that the issuer has the option to pay it off before its maturity date). The fund amortizes the premium and accretes the discount on each callable security to the security’s maturity date, except when the purchase price is higher than the call price at the security’s call date (in which case the premium is amortized to the call date).
(e) Expenses:
Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement (Advisory Agreement) between Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (CSIM or the investment adviser) and the trust, the investment adviser will pay the operating expenses of each fund, excluding taxes, any brokerage expenses, and extraordinary or non-routine expenses. Taxes, any brokerage expenses and extraordinary or non-routine expenses that are specific to a fund are charged directly to the fund.
(f) U.S. Treasury, Agency Debt & Agency Mortgage-Backed Securities Charges:
Due to market conditions or other reasons, delivery of U.S. Treasury securities, agency debt and agency mortgage-backed securities may not occur on a timely basis. In these instances, a fund may fail to receive a security purchased causing the fund to be unable to deliver a security sold. The TMPG recommends voluntary fail charges when securities are not delivered as agreed by the parties. These fails charges are included in net realized gains (losses) on each fund’s Statement of Operations, if any.
(g) Distributions to Shareholders:
The funds make distributions from net investment income, if any, monthly and from net realized capital gains, if any, once a year.
(h) Accounting Estimates:
The accounting policies described in this report conform to GAAP. Notwithstanding this, shareholders should understand that in order to follow these principles, fund management has to make estimates and assumptions that affect the information reported in the financial statements. It’s possible that once the results are known, they may turn out to be different from these estimates and these differences may be material.
(i) Federal Income Taxes:
The funds intend to meet federal income and excise tax requirements for regulated investment companies under subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended. Accordingly, the funds distribute substantially all of their net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, to their respective shareholders each year. As long as a fund meets the tax requirements, it is not required to pay federal income tax.
(j) Indemnification:
Under the funds’ organizational documents, the officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the funds. In addition, in the normal course of business the funds enter into contracts with their vendors and others that provide general indemnifications. The funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the funds. However, based on experience, the funds expect the risk of loss attributable to these arrangements to be remote.
(k) Recent Accounting Standards:
In March 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update “Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities” which amends the amortization period for a callable debt security held at a premium from the maturity date to the earliest call date. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those annual periods. At this time, management believes these changes will not have a material impact to the financial statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820)” (ASU 2018-13) which modifies the disclosure requirements for fair value measurement by removing, modifying, or adding certain disclosures. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those annual periods. The funds are permitted to early adopt any removed or modified disclosures upon issuance of this update and delay adoption of the additional disclosures until their effective date. The funds have early adopted certain removed or modified disclosures, including the

At this time, management is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of the additional disclosures will have on the funds’ financial statements.

    
3. Risk Factors:
Investing in the funds may involve certain risks, as discussed in the funds’ prospectus, including, but not limited to, those described below. Any of these risks could cause an investor to lose money.
Market Risk. Financial markets rise and fall in response to a variety of factors, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably. As with any investment whose performance is tied to these markets, the value of an investment in a fund will fluctuate, which means that an investor could lose money over short or long periods.
Investment Style Risk. The funds are index funds. Therefore, the funds follow the securities included in an index during upturns as well as downturns. Because of their indexing strategy, the funds do not take steps to reduce market exposure or to lessen the effects of a declining market. In addition, because of each fund’s expenses, each fund’s performance may be below that of its respective index.
Interest Rate Risk. The funds’ investments in fixed-income securities are subject to the risk that interest rates rise and fall over time. As with any investment whose yield reflects current interest rates, a fund’s yield will change over time. During periods when interest rates are low, a fund’s yield (and total return) also may be low. Changes in interest rates also may affect a fund’s share price: a rise in interest rates could cause a fund’s share price to fall. The longer a fund’s portfolio duration, the more sensitive to interest rate movements its share price is likely to be. A change in a central bank’s monetary policy or improving economic conditions, among other things, may result in an increase in interest rates. The funds are currently subject to heightened levels of interest rate risk because of the continued economic recovery, along with the fact that the Federal Reserve Board ended its quantitative easing program in 2014, and has begun, and may continue, to raise interest rates.
Credit Risk. The funds are subject to the risk that a decline in the credit quality of a portfolio investment could cause the funds to lose money or underperform. The funds could lose money if the issuer or guarantor of a portfolio investment fails to make timely principal or interest payments or otherwise honor its obligations.
Inflation-Protected Security Risk. The value of inflation-protected securities, including TIPS, generally will fluctuate in response to changes in “real” interest rates, generally decreasing when real interest rates rise and increasing when real interest rates fall. Real interest rates represent nominal (or stated) interest rates reduced by the expected impact of inflation. In addition, interest payments on inflation-indexed securities will generally vary up or down along with the rate of inflation.
Sampling Index Tracking Risk. To the extent a fund uses sampling techniques, the fund may not fully replicate the index and may hold securities not included in the index. As a result, a fund will be subject to the risk that the investment adviser’s investment management strategy, the implementation of which is subject to a number of constraints, may not produce the intended results. If a fund uses a sampling approach, it may not track the return of the index as well as it would if a fund purchased all of the securities in its index.
Tracking Error Risk. As index funds, the funds seek to track the performance of an index, although they may not be successful in doing so. The divergence between the performance of a fund and the index, positive or negative, is called “tracking error.” Tracking error can be caused by many factors and it may be significant.
Liquidity Risk. A fund may be unable to sell certain securities, such as illiquid securities, readily at a favorable time or price, or the fund may have to sell them at a loss.
Securities Lending Risk. Securities lending involves the risk of loss of rights in, or delay in recovery of, the loaned securities if the borrower fails to return the security loaned or becomes insolvent.
Market Trading Risk. Although fund shares are listed on national securities exchanges, there can be no assurance that an active trading market for fund shares will develop or be maintained. If an active market is not maintained, investors may find it difficult to buy or sell fund shares.
Mortgage-Backed and Mortgage Pass-Through Securities Risk. With respect to the Schwab U.S. Aggregate Bond ETF, certain of the mortgage-backed securities in which the fund may invest are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government and there can be no assurance that the U.S. government would provide financial support where it was not obligated to do so. Mortgage-

3. Risk Factors (continued):
backed securities tend to increase in value less than other debt securities when interest rates decline, but are subject to similar or greater risk of decline in market value during periods of rising interest rates. Transactions in mortgage pass-through securities often occur through TBA transactions, as described in the fund’s prospectus. Default by or bankruptcy of a counterparty to a TBA transaction could expose the fund to possible losses.
Portfolio Turnover Risk. With respect to the Schwab U.S. Aggregate Bond ETF, the fund may engage in frequent trading of its portfolio securities in connection with its tracking of the index, primarily due to the fund rolling over its positions in TBAs as it tracks the portion of the index represented by mortgage-backed securities. A higher portfolio turnover rate may result in increased transaction costs, which may lower the fund’s performance. A higher portfolio turnover rate can also result in an increase in taxable capital gains distributions to the fund’s shareholders.
Prepayment and Extension Risk. With respect to the Schwab U.S. Aggregate Bond ETF, certain of the fund’s investments are subject to the risk that the securities may be paid off earlier or later than expected. Either situation could cause the fund to hold securities paying lower-than-market rates of interest, which could hurt the fund’s yield or share price.
Non-U.S. Issuer Risk. The Schwab U.S. Aggregate Bond ETF may invest in U.S.-registered, dollar-denominated bonds of non-U.S. corporations, governments, agencies and supra-national entities to the extent such bonds are included in the fund’s index. The fund’s investments in bonds of non-U.S. issuers may involve certain risks that are greater than those associated with investments in securities of U.S. issuers. These include risks of adverse changes in foreign economic, political, regulatory and other conditions; the imposition of economic sanctions or other government restrictions; differing accounting, auditing, financial reporting and legal standards and practices; differing securities market structures; and higher transaction costs. These risks may be heightened in connection with bonds issued by non-U.S. corporations and entities in emerging markets.
Derivatives Risk. The Schwab U.S. Aggregate Bond ETF may invest in derivatives instruments. The principal types of derivatives used by the fund are futures contracts. A futures contract is an agreement to buy or sell a financial instrument at a specific price on a specific day. The fund’s use of derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. Certain of these risks, such as market risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and leverage risk, are discussed elsewhere in this section. The fund’s use of derivatives is also subject to lack of availability risk, valuation risk, correlation risk and tax risk. Lack of availability risk is the risk that suitable derivative transactions may not be available in all circumstances for risk management or other purposes. Valuation risk is the risk that a particular derivative may be valued incorrectly. Correlation risk is the risk that changes in the value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index. Tax risk is the risk that the use of derivatives may cause the fund to realize higher amounts of short-term capital gains. A fund’s use of derivatives could reduce the fund’s performance, increase the fund’s volatility, and cause the fund to lose more than the initial amount invested. Furthermore, the use of derivatives subject to regulation by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) could cause the fund to become a commodity pool, which would require the fund to comply with certain CFTC rules.
Concentration Risk. With respect to the Schwab U.S. Aggregate Bond ETF, to the extent that the fund’s or an index’s portfolio is concentrated in the securities of issuers in a particular market, industry, group of industries, sector or asset class, the fund may be adversely affected by the performance of those securities, may be subject to increased price volatility and may be more vulnerable to adverse economic, market, political or regulatory occurrences affecting that market, industry, group of industries, sector or asset class.
Shares of the Fund May Trade at Prices Other Than NAV. Fund shares may be bought and sold in the secondary market at market prices. Although it is expected that the market price of the shares of a fund will approximate the fund’s NAV, there may be times when the market price and the NAV vary significantly. An investor may pay more than NAV when buying shares of a fund in the secondary market, and an investor may receive less than NAV when selling those shares in the secondary market. The market price of fund shares may deviate, sometimes significantly, from NAV during periods of market volatility or market disruption.
Please refer to the funds’ prospectus for a more complete description of the principal risks of investing in the funds.

6. Board of Trustees:
The Board may include people who are officers and/or directors of CSIM or its affiliates. Federal securities law limits the percentage of such “interested persons” who may serve on a trust’s board, and the trust was in compliance with these limitations throughout the report period. The trust does not pay any interested or non-interested trustees (independent trustees). The independent trustees are paid by CSIM. For information regarding the trustees, please refer to the Trustees and Officers table at the end of this report.

    
7. Borrowing from Banks:
During the period, the funds were participants with other U.S. registered investment companies managed by CSIM in a joint, syndicated, committed $750 million line of credit (the Syndicated Credit Facility), maturing on October 3, 2019. Under the terms of the Syndicated Credit Facility, in addition to CSIM paying the interest charged on any borrowings by a fund, CSIM paid a commitment fee of 0.15% per annum on the funds’ proportionate share of the unused portion of the Syndicated Credit Facility.
During the period, the funds were participants with other U.S. registered investment companies managed by CSIM in a joint, unsecured, uncommitted $500 million line of credit (the Uncommitted Credit Facility), with State Street, maturing on November 29, 2019. Under the terms of the Uncommitted Credit Facility, CSIM pays interest on the amount a fund borrows. There were no borrowings from either line of credit during the period.
The funds also have access to custodian overdraft facilities. A fund may have utilized the overdraft facility and incurred an interest expense, which is paid by CSIM. The interest expense is determined based on a negotiated rate above the current Federal Funds Rate.

9. In-Kind Transactions:
The consideration for the purchase of Creation Units of a fund often consists of the in-kind deposit of a designated portfolio of fixed-income securities, which constitutes an optimized representation of the securities involved in a relevant fund’s underlying index, and an amount of cash. Due to the composition of the portfolio of the Schwab U.S. Aggregate Bond ETF, consideration for the subscription and redemption of Creation Units generally is cash. Investors purchasing and redeeming Creation Units are subject to a standard creation transaction fee and a standard redemption transaction fee paid to the custodian to offset transfer and other transaction costs associated with the issuance and redemption of Creation Units. Purchasers and redeemers of Creation Units for

9. In-Kind Transactions (continued):
cash are subject to an additional variable charge paid to the fund that will offset the transaction costs to the fund of buying or selling portfolio securities. In addition, purchasers and redeemers of shares in Creation Units are responsible for payment of the costs of transferring securities to or out of the fund. From time to time, CSIM may cover the cost of any transaction fees when believed to be in the best interests of the fund.
The in-kind transactions for the period ended June 30, 2019, were as follows:

Schwab U.S. Aggregate Bond ETF
For the period ended June 30, 2019, the funds (except for the Schwab U.S. Aggregate Bond ETF) realized net capital gains or losses resulting from in-kind redemptions of Creation Units. Because such gains or losses are not taxable to the funds and are not distributed to existing fund shareholders, the gains or losses are reclassified from accumulated net realized gains or losses to capital received from investors at the end of the funds’ tax year. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset values per share. The net realized in-kind gains or losses for the period ended June 30, 2019 are disclosed in the funds’ Statements of Operations, if any.

Investment Advisory Agreement Approval

The Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) requires that the continuation of a fund’s investment advisory agreement must be specifically approved (1) by the vote of the trustees or by a vote of the shareholders of the fund, and (2) by the vote of a majority of the trustees who are not parties to the investment advisory agreement or “interested persons” of any party (the Independent Trustees), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. In connection with such approvals, the fund’s trustees must request and evaluate, and the investment adviser is required to furnish, such information as may be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the investment advisory agreement.
The Board of Trustees (the Board or the Trustees, as appropriate) calls and holds one or more meetings each year that are dedicated, in whole or in part, to considering whether to renew the investment advisory agreement (the Agreement) between Schwab Strategic Trust (the Trust) and Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (CSIM) with respect to the existing funds in the Trust, including Schwab U.S. TIPS ETF, Schwab Short-Term U.S. Treasury ETF, Schwab Intermediate-Term U.S. Treasury ETF and Schwab U.S. Aggregate Bond ETF (the Funds), and to review certain other agreements pursuant to which CSIM provides investment advisory services to certain other registered investment companies. In preparation for the meeting(s), the Board requests and reviews a wide variety of materials provided by CSIM, including information about CSIM’s affiliates, personnel, business goals and priorities, profitability, third-party oversight, corporate structure and operations. The Board also receives extensive data provided by an independent provider of investment company data. This information is in addition to the detailed information about the Funds that the Board reviews during the course of each year, including information that relates to the Funds’ operations and performance, legal and compliance matters, risk management, portfolio turnover, and sales and marketing activity. The Independent Trustees receive advice from Independent Trustees’ legal counsel, including a memorandum regarding the responsibilities of trustees for the approval of investment advisory agreements. In addition, the Independent Trustees meet in executive session outside the presence of Fund management and participate in question and answer sessions with representatives of CSIM.
The Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, considered information specifically relating to the continuance of the Agreement with respect to the Funds at meetings held on May 13, 2019 and June 4, 2019, and approved the renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds for an additional one-year term at the meeting held on June 4, 2019. The Board’s approval of the continuance of the Agreement with respect to the Funds was based on consideration and
evaluation of a variety of specific factors discussed at these meetings and at prior meetings, including:
1. the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Funds under the Agreement, including the resources of CSIM and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds;
2. each Fund’s investment performance and how it compared to that of certain other comparable exchange-traded funds and benchmark data;
3. each Fund’s expenses and how those expenses compared to those of certain other similar exchange-traded funds;
4. the profitability of CSIM and its affiliates, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (Schwab), with respect to the Funds, including both direct and indirect benefits accruing to CSIM and its affiliates; and
5. the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Funds grow and whether fee levels in the Agreement reflect those economies of scale for the benefit of Fund investors.
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Board considered the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by CSIM to the Funds and the resources of CSIM and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds. In this regard, the Trustees evaluated, among other things, CSIM’s experience, track record, compliance program, resources dedicated to hiring and retaining skilled personnel and specialized talent, and information security resources. The Trustees also considered information provided by CSIM relating to services and support provided with respect to the Funds’ portfolio management team, portfolio strategy, and internal investment guidelines, as well as trading infrastructure, liquidity management, product design and analysis, shareholder communications, securities valuation, fund accounting and custody, and vendor and risk oversight. The Trustees also considered investments CSIM has made in its infrastructure, including modernizing CSIM’s technology and use of data, increasing expertise in key areas (including portfolio management and trade operations), and improving business continuity, cybersecurity, due diligence, risk management processes, and information security programs, which are designed to provide enhanced services to the Funds and their shareholders. The Trustees also considered Schwab’s reputation in connection with the OneSource exchange-traded fund offering and the firm’s overall financial condition. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the nature, extent and quality of services provided by CSIM to the Funds and the resources of CSIM and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds.

Fund Performance. The Board considered each Fund’s performance in determining whether to renew the Agreement with respect to the Fund. Specifically, the Trustees considered each Fund’s performance relative to a peer category of other exchange-traded funds and applicable indices/benchmarks, in light of total return, yield, if applicable, and market trends, as well as in consideration of each Fund’s investment style and strategy attributes and disclosures. As part of this review, the Trustees considered the composition of the peer category, selection criteria and the reputation of the independent provider of investment company data who prepared the peer category analysis. In evaluating the performance of the Funds, the Trustees considered the risk profile for each Fund and such Fund’s demonstrated performance in tracking its benchmark index. The Trustees further considered the level of Fund performance in the context of their review of Fund expenses and adviser profitability discussed below and also noted that performance is reviewed throughout the year by a designated committee of the Board and by the Board. Following such evaluation the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the performance of the Fund supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds.
Fund Expenses. With respect to the Funds’ expenses, the Trustees considered the rate of compensation called for by the Agreement and each Fund’s operating expense ratio, in each case in comparison to those of other similar exchange-traded funds, such peer groups and comparisons having been selected and calculated by an independent provider of investment company data. CSIM reported to the Board, and the Board took into account, the risk assumed by CSIM in the development of products and provision of services as well as the competitive marketplace for financial products. The Trustees also considered fees charged by CSIM to mutual funds that it manages. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the expenses of each Fund are reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds.
Profitability. The Trustees considered the compensation flowing to CSIM and its affiliates, directly or indirectly and reviewed profitability on a pre-tax basis, without regard to distribution expenses. In this connection, the Trustees reviewed management’s profitability analyses. The Trustees also reviewed profitability of CSIM relating to the Schwab fund complex as a whole, noting the benefit to Fund shareholders of being part of the Schwab fund complex, including the allocations of certain fixed costs across other funds in the complex. The Trustees also considered any other benefits derived by CSIM from its relationship with the Funds, such as whether, by virtue of its management of the Funds, CSIM obtains investment information or other research resources that aid it in providing advisory services to other clients. The Trustees considered whether the varied levels of compensation and profitability with respect to the Funds under the Agreement and other service agreements were reasonable and
justified in light of the quality of all services rendered to the Funds by CSIM and its affiliates. The Trustees noted that CSIM continues to invest substantial sums in its business in order to provide enhanced research capabilities, services, and systems to benefit the Funds. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the profitability of CSIM is reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds.
Economies of Scale. Although the Trustees recognized the difficulty of determining economies of scale with precision, the Trustees considered the potential existence of any economies of scale and whether those are passed along to the Funds’ shareholders by way of the relatively low advisory fee and unitary fee structure of the Funds through (i) the enhancement of services provided to the Funds in return for fees paid, including through investments by CSIM in CSIM’s infrastructure, including modernizing CSIM’s technology and use of data, increasing expertise and capabilities in key areas (including portfolio and trade operations), and improving business continuity, cybersecurity, due diligence, and information security programs, which are designed to provide enhanced services to the Funds and their shareholders; (ii) graduated investment advisory fee schedules, fee waivers, or expense caps by CSIM and its affiliates for those funds with such features; and (iii) pricing a fund to scale and keeping overall expenses down as the fund grows. The Trustees acknowledged that CSIM has shared any economies of scale with the Funds by investing in CSIM’s infrastructure, as discussed above, over time and that CSIM’s internal costs of providing investment management, technology, administrative, legal and compliance services to the Funds continues to increase as a result of regulatory or other developments. The Trustees considered that CSIM and its affiliates may employ contractual expense caps to protect shareholders from high fees when fund assets are relatively small, for example, in the case of newer funds or funds with investment strategies that are from time to time out of favor, because, among other reasons, shareholders may benefit from the continued availability of such funds at subsidized expense levels. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that each Fund obtains reasonable benefits from economies of scale.
In the course of their deliberations, the Trustees may have accorded different weights to various factors and did not identify any particular information or factor that was all important or controlling. Based on the Trustees’ deliberation and their evaluation of the information described above, the Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, approved the continuation of the Agreement with respect to the Funds and concluded that the compensation under the Agreement with respect to the Funds is fair and reasonable in light of such services and expenses and such other matters as the Trustees have considered to be relevant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment.

Schwab Fixed-Income ETFs
Glossary

ask  See “offer.”
asset allocation  The practice of dividing a portfolio among different asset classes, with each asset class assigned a particular percentage to help offset risks and rewards, based on your goals, time horizon and risk tolerance.
asset-backed securities  Bond or other debt securities that represent ownership in a pool of assets such as credit card debt.
asset class  A group of securities with similar structure and basic characteristics. Stocks, bonds and cash are the three main examples of asset classes.
authorized participant (AP)  A large institutional investor that places orders for creation units with the funds’ distributor.
bid  The highest price at which someone is willing to buy a security.
Bloomberg Barclays US Aggregate Bond Index   An index that is a broad-based benchmark measuring the performance of the U.S. investment grade, taxable bond market, including U.S. Treasuries, government-related and corporate bonds, mortgage pass-through securities, commercial mortgage-backed securities, and asset-backed securities that are publicly available for sale in the United States. To be eligible for inclusion in the index, securities must be fixed rate, non-convertible, U.S. dollar denominated with at least $300 million or more of outstanding face value and have one or more years remaining to maturity. The index excludes certain types of securities, including tax-exempt state and local government series bonds, structured notes embedded with swaps or other special features, private placements, floating rate securities, inflation-linked bonds and Eurobonds. The index is market capitalization weighted and the securities in the index are updated on the last business day of each month.
Bloomberg Barclays US Treasury 1–3 Year Index   An index which includes all publicly-issued U.S. Treasury securities that have a remaining maturity of greater than or equal to one year and less than three years, are rated investment grade, and have $300 million or more of outstanding face value. The securities in the index must be denominated in U.S. dollars and must be fixed-rate and non-convertible. The index excludes state and local government series bonds and coupon issues that have been stripped from bonds. The index is market capitalization weighted and the securities in the index are updated on the last business day of each month.
Bloomberg Barclays US Treasury 3–10 Year Index  An index which includes all publicly-issued U.S. Treasury securities that have a remaining maturity of greater than or equal to three years and less than ten years, are rated investment grade, and have $300 million or more of outstanding face value.

The index excludes state and local government series bonds and coupon issues that have been stripped from bonds. The index is market capitalization weighted and the securities in the index are updated on the last business day of each month.
Bloomberg Barclays US Treasury Inflation-Linked Bond Index (Series-L)   An index which includes all publicly-issued U.S. Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS) that have at least one year remaining to maturity, are rated investment grade and have $500 million or more of outstanding face value.

The index is market capitalization weighted and the TIPS in the index are updated on the last business day of each month. TIPS are publicly issued, dollar denominated U.S. Government
securities issued by the U.S. Treasury that have principal and interest payments linked to an official inflation measure (as measured by the Consumer Price Index, or CPI) and their payments are supported by the full faith and credit of the United States.
bond  A security representing a loan from the investor to the issuer. A bond typically pays interest at a fixed rate (the “coupon rate”) until a specified date (the “maturity date”), at which time the issuer returns the money borrowed (“principal” or “face value”) to the bondholder. Because of their structure, bonds are sometimes called “fixed income securities” or “debt securities.”
call  An early repayment of a bond’s principal by the issuer, usually done because the issuer is able to refinance its bond debt at a lower rate.
call protection  A term used in reference to a bond that cannot be called by the issuer before maturity, or at least for many years from the present date. A bond that offers call protection can more reliably be expected to provide a given yield over a given number of years than a bond that could be called (assuming both bonds are of the same credit quality).
capital gain, capital loss  The difference between the amount paid for an investment and its value at a later time. If the investment has been sold, the capital gain or loss is considered a realized gain or loss. If the investment is still held, the gain or loss is still “on paper” and is considered unrealized.
commencement of operations  The date that the first NAV was calculated.
coupon, coupon rate  The annual rate of interest paid until maturity by the issuer of a debt security.
creation unit (C.U.)  A basket of securities that is delivered by an authorized participant (AP) to the fund equal to the current holdings of the ETF, plus a designated cash component. In return, the APs receive a large block of ETF shares (typically 50,000 shares), which investors can then buy and sell in the secondary market.
credit quality  The capacity of an issuer to make its interest and principal payments; an assessment typically rendered by an independent third-party organization.
credit risk  The risk that a bond issuer may be unable to pay interest or principal to its bondholders.
duration  A measure of an individual bond’s sensitivity to interest rates, expressed in years. Calculations of duration generally take into account the bond’s yield, interest payments, maturity date and call features.
weighted average duration  A measure of the duration of all bonds in a fund’s portfolio, also expressed in years, based on the market value weighted average duration of each bond in the portfolio.
exchange  A marketplace, or any organization or group that provides or maintains a marketplace for trading securities, options, futures, or commodities.
expense ratio  The amount that is taken from the fund’s assets each year to cover the operating expenses. An expense ratio of 0.50% means that a fund’s expenses amount to half of one percent of its average net assets a year.
face value  The value of a bond, note, mortgage or other security as given on the certificate or instrument. Face value is also referred to as par value or nominal value.

Schwab Fixed-Income ETFs
inception date  The date that the shares began trading in the secondary market.
indicative optimized portfolio value (IOPV)  A calculation disseminated by the stock exchange that approximates the fund’s NAV every 15 seconds throughout the trading day.
interest  Payments to bondholders (usually made twice a year) as compensation for loaning the bond principal to the issuer.
interest rate risk  The risk that a bond’s value will fluctuate if market interest rates change or are expected to change. Bond prices tend to move in the opposite direction of interest rates: when interest rates rise, bond prices tend to fall.
liquidity  The ability to convert a security or asset quickly into cash.
market price return  The return based on the change in market price per share of the fund over a given time period. Market price returns assume that dividends and capital gain distributions have been reinvested in the fund at market price.
maturity  The maturity of a bond will generally be determined using a portfolio security’s final maturity date (date on which the final principal payment of a bond is scheduled to be paid); however, for securitized products, such as mortgage-backed securities and certain other asset-backed securities, maturity will be determined on an average life basis (weighted average time to receipt of all principal payments) by the investment adviser. Because pre-payment rates of individual mortgage pools vary widely, the average life of a particular pool cannot be predicted precisely. For securities with embedded demand features, such as puts or calls, either the demand date or the final maturity date will be used depending on interest rates, yields and other market conditions. The weighted average maturity (WAM) of a fund is dollar-weighted based upon the market value of a fund’s securities at the time of the calculation.
mortgage-backed securities  Bond or other debt securities that represent ownership in a pool of mortgage loans.
net asset value (NAV)  The value of one share of a fund. NAV is calculated by taking the fund’s total assets, subtracting liabilities, and dividing by the number of shares outstanding.
NAV return  The return based on the change in NAV of the fund over a given time period. NAV returns assume that dividends and capital gain distributions have been reinvested in the fund.
offer (ask)  The lowest price at which an individual is willing to sell a security.
open  The price at which a security opened for trading on a given day.
outstanding shares, shares outstanding  When speaking of the fund, indicates all shares currently held by investors.
prepayment risk  The risk that a mortgage-backed security may be paid off early, typically because interest rates have fallen and the homeowners who hold the underlying mortgages have refinanced those mortgages at lower rates. In this type of situation, the investor who held the mortgage-backed security will usually have to settle for a lower rate when reinvesting the principal.
primary market  The market that deals with the issuance of new securities.
replication  If a fund uses a full replication method, the fund will invest substantially all of its assets proportionately in the securities included in the underlying index.
sampling  If a fund uses a sampling method, the fund will not fully replicate the underlying index and may hold securities not included in the index. A fund that utilizes a sampling approach may not track the return of the index as closely as a fund that uses a full replication method.
secondary market  The market in which investors purchase securities from other investors rather than directly from the issuing companies. Organized exchanges facilitate the trading of securities in the secondary market.
spread  The gap between bid and ask prices of a security.
total return  The percentage that an investor would have earned or lost on an investment in the fund assuming dividends and distributions were reinvested.
tracking error  The difference between the performance of the fund and its benchmark index, positive or negative.
Treasury inflation protected security (TIPS)  A United States Treasury bond whose principal increases at the same rate as the Consumer Price Index (CPI).The interest payment is then calculated off that inflated (adjusted) principal and repaid at maturity.
weighted average  For mutual funds or ETFs, an average that gives the same weight to each security as the security represents in the fund’s portfolio.
yield  The income paid out by an investment, expressed as a percentage of the investment’s market value.
yield to maturity  The annualized rate of return a bondholder could expect if the bond were held to maturity. In addition to interest payments, yield to maturity also factors in any difference between a bond’s current price and its principal amount, or face value.
