Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

INTRODUCTION

The Charles Schwab Corporation (CSC) is a savings and loan holding company engaged, through its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the Company), in wealth management, securities brokerage, banking, asset management, custody, and financial advisory services.

Significant business subsidiaries of CSC include the following:

• Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (Schwab), a securities broker-dealer;

• Charles Schwab Bank (Schwab Bank), a federal savings bank; and

• Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (CSIM), the investment advisor for Schwab’s proprietary mutual funds, which are referred to as the Schwab Funds^®, and for Schwab’s exchange-traded funds (ETFs), which are referred to as the Schwab ETFs™.

The Company provides financial services to individuals and institutional clients through two segments – Investor Services and Advisor Services. The Investor Services segment provides retail brokerage and banking services, retirement plan services, and other corporate brokerage services. The Advisor Services segment provides custodial, trading, banking, and support services as well as retirement business services.

Schwab was founded on the belief that average Americans deserve access to a better investing experience. Although much has changed in the intervening years, the Company’s purpose remains clear – to champion every client’s goals with passion and integrity. Guided by this purpose and the aspiration of creating the most trusted leader in investment services, management has adopted a strategy described as “Through Clients’ Eyes.”

Under this approach, the Company’s strategic goals are focused on putting clients’ perspectives, needs, and desires at the forefront. Because investing plays a fundamental role in building financial security, the Company strives to deliver a better investing experience for its clients – individual investors and the people and institutions who serve them – by disrupting longstanding industry practices on their behalf and providing superior service. The Company aims to offer a broad range of products and solutions to meet client needs with a focus on transparency and value. In addition, management works to couple the Company’s scale and resources with ongoing expense discipline to keep costs low and ensure that products and solutions are affordable as well as responsive to client needs. Finally, the Company aims to maximize its market valuation and stockholder returns over time.

Management estimates that investable wealth in the United States (U.S.) currently exceeds $30 trillion, which means the Company’s $2.92 trillion in client assets represent a market share of less than ten percent, leaving substantial opportunity for growth. The Company’s strategy is based on the principle that developing trusted relationships will translate into more assets from both new and existing clients, ultimately driving more revenue and, along with expense discipline, generating earnings growth and building long-term stockholder value.

Starting with this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2017 (Form 10-Q), management has minimized the repetition of any information already reflected in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year-ended December 31, 2016 (2016 Form 10-K). This Form 10-Q is intended to provide an update on the activity and results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and should be read in conjunction with the 2016 Form 10-K. More information on the Company’s business operations, descriptions of revenue and expense categories, policies and procedures including the Company’s governance and monitoring programs is available in the 2016 Form 10-K. The Company’s recent annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, proxy statements, as well as other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), are available free of charge on the Company’s website, https://www.aboutschwab.com or by request via email (investor.relations@schwab.com), telephone (415-667-7000) or mail (Charles Schwab Investor Relations at 211 Main Street, San Francisco, CA 94105).

The Company continues to grow bigger, stronger, and more capable through a steadfast focus on its “Through Clients’ Eyes” strategy. The equity markets began the quarter in positive territory and remained solidly positive throughout. Investors were engaged, and the Company was there to provide guidance and support along the way. Core net new assets totaled $38.9 billion for the first quarter ended March 31, 2017, up 22% year-over-year. The Company ended the quarter serving 10.3 million active brokerage accounts, 1.1 million banking accounts, and 1.5 million retirement plan participants, up 5%, 7%, and 1%, respectively, from the same period in 2016. Total client assets reached $2.92 trillion at March 31, 2017, up 14% year-over-year. During the first quarter of 2017, the Company’s financial consultants held planning conversations with 38,000 clients, up 12% from the same quarter in 2016. Assets enrolled in some form of ongoing advisory service totaled $1.48 trillion at quarter-end, up 16% from a year ago.

The Company’s strong first quarter financial performance was driven by ongoing success in building the client base, sustained improvement in the economic environment, and the Federal Reserve System’s (Federal Reserve) actions to lift interest rates, along with focused expense management. Net revenues increased 18% in the first quarter of 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 primarily due to growth in client assets and higher short-term interest rates.

(Tabular Amounts in Millions, Except Ratios, or as Noted)

Expenses excluding interest increased 12% in the first three months of 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 largely due to higher compensation and benefits and deposit insurance assessments and surcharges. These increases were consistent with management’s expectations for spending to support current and future growth in the business.

The pre-tax profit margin for the first quarter of 2017 was 40.5% compared to 37.1% for the same period in 2016. Net income grew by 37% for the first quarter 2017 compared to the same period in 2016. Lastly, the return on average common stockholders’ equity improved to 15% for the first quarter of 2017 compared to 13% for the same period in 2016.

⁽¹⁾  Includes Schwab ETF OneSource^™.

⁽²⁾  Average client assets for advice solutions may also include the asset balances contained in the mutual fund and/or ETF categories listed above.

⁽³⁾  Includes various asset-related fees, such as trust fees, 401(k) recordkeeping fees, and mutual fund clearing fees and other service fees. Beginning in the first quarter of 2017, a prospective methodology change was made to average client assets relating to 401(k) recordkeeping fees to provide improved insight into the associated fee driver, which resulted in an increase of approximately $25 billion. There was no impact to revenue or the average fee.

⁽⁴⁾  Includes miscellaneous service and transaction fees relating to mutual funds and ETFs that are not balance-based.

Asset management and administration fees increased by $124 million, or 18%, in the first quarter of 2017 compared to the same period in 2016. The increase is largely due to continued improvement in net money fund revenue from rising rates and growing balances in advisory solutions, mutual funds, and ETFs.

⁽¹⁾ Interest revenue or expense was less than $500,000 in the period or periods presented.

⁽²⁾ Amounts have been calculated based on amortized cost.

Net interest revenue increased $228 million, or 30%, in the first quarter of 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 due to higher interest-earning assets driven by growth in bank deposits. The Company has grown bank deposits through a combination of:

• Gathering additional assets from new and current clients; 

• Transferring uninvested cash balances in certain client brokerage accounts to Schwab Bank; and

• Establishing the Schwab Bank sweep feature as the default investment option for uninvested cash balances within all new brokerage accounts as of June 2016.

The Company has invested the cash from the growth in bank deposits and short-term borrowings in investment securities. These incremental investments, coupled with an increase in short-term interest rates, have resulted in a 14 basis point improvement in the net interest margin to 1.87% during the first quarter of 2017.

In March 2017, the Company transferred $24.7 billion of debt securities from the available for sale (AFS) category to the held to maturity (HTM) category. For additional information on the transfer, see Item 1 – Note 3.

Trading Revenue

The following table presents trading revenue and the related drivers:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2017		2016		Percent Change
Daily average revenue trades (in thousands)	317		328		(3	)%
Clients’ daily average trades (in thousands)	585		616		(5	)%
Number of trading days	62.0		61.0		2	%
Average revenue per revenue trade	$	9.84	$	11.44	(14	)%
Trading revenue	$	192	$	232	(17	)%

During the first quarter of 2017, the Company announced two trading price reductions which lowered standard equity, ETF, and option trade commissions from $8.95 to $4.95 and lowered the per contract option fee from $.75 to $.65. Trading revenue decreased by $40 million, or 17%, in the first quarter of 2017 compared to the same period in 2016, primarily due to these pricing reductions along with lower trading volumes from the prior year. These reductions in commission rates reflect both the Company’s belief that trade pricing should never be an obstacle for investors as well as the Company’s commitment to share the benefits of its scale with clients.

Other Revenue

Other revenue increased by $3 million, or 5%, in the first quarter of 2017 compared to the first quarter of 2016, primarily due to the sublease of office space in San Francisco along with a gain on the sale of a building in Indianapolis.

Order flow revenue was $27 million during the first quarters of both 2017 and 2016.

Incentive compensation increased in the first quarter of 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 primarily due to higher field incentive plan costs relating to increased net client asset flows and increased employee headcount.

Employee benefits and other expenses increased in the first quarter of 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 due to increases in healthcare costs and higher employee headcount.

Professional services expense increased in the first quarter of 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 primarily due to higher spending on technology services and an increase in fees paid to outsourced service providers and consultants as the Company continued to invest in the business.

Depreciation and amortization expenses grew in the first quarter of 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 as a result of higher amortization of internally developed software as projects were completed and placed into production.

Other expense increased in the first quarter of 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 primarily due to an increase in the Company’s Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) assessments. The FDIC assessments rose as a result of higher bank deposits and the effect of a new surcharge that commenced in the third quarter of 2016.

Taxes on Income

Effective January 1, 2017, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-09, which prospectively changes the accounting treatment of a portion of the tax deductions relating to equity compensation. These deductions were previously reflected directly in additional paid-in capital, a component of stockholders’ equity, and are now included in tax expense, a component of net income. The Company’s first quarter 2017 tax expense was reduced by approximately $31 million as a result of this change. Future effects will depend on the Company’s share price, restricted stock vesting, and the volume of equity incentive options exercised.

The Company’s effective income tax rate on income before taxes was 33.1% and 37.1% for the first quarters of 2017 and 2016, respectively, which reflects the benefit in the first quarter of 2017 discussed above.

Segment Information

Financial information for the Company’s reportable segments is presented in the following table:

Investor Services

Net revenues rose by $216 million, or 17%, in the first quarter of 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 primarily due to increases in net interest revenue and asset management and administration fees, partially offset by a decrease in trading revenue. Net interest revenue increased primarily due to higher balances of interest-earning assets and higher yields on invested assets. Asset management and administration fees increased primarily due to higher net yields on money market fund assets and growth in client assets invested in mutual funds and ETFs and advisory solutions. Trading revenue decreased primarily due to lower commissions per revenue trade.

Expenses excluding interest increased by $94 million, or 11%, in the first quarter of 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 primarily due to higher compensation and benefits and other expenses. Incentive compensation increased as a result of growth in net client asset flows while salaries and benefits grew reflecting higher employee headcount. Other expenses rose due to higher FDIC fees.

Advisor Services

Net revenues rose by $101 million, or 21%, in the first quarter of 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 primarily due to increases in net interest revenue and asset management and administration fees, partially offset by a decrease in trading revenue. Net interest revenue increased primarily due to higher balances of interest-earning assets and higher yields. This growth in interest-earning assets was bolstered by the migration of more uninvested client cash balances in the segment to Schwab Bank. Asset management and administration fees increased primarily due to higher net yields on money market fund assets and growth in client assets invested in mutual funds and ETFs. Trading revenue decreased primarily due to lower commissions per revenue trade.

Expenses excluding interest increased by $35 million, or 13%, in the first quarter of 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 primarily due to salaries and incentive compensation resulting from growth in client assets and higher headcount.

RISK MANAGEMENT

The Company’s business activities expose it to a variety of risks, including operational, credit, market, liquidity, and compliance risk. The Company has a comprehensive risk management program to identify and manage these risks and their associated potential for financial and reputational impact. For a discussion of the Company’s risk management programs, see Item 7 – Risk Management in the 2016 Form 10-K.

Credit Risk

Credit risk is the potential for loss due to a borrower, counterparty, or issuer failing to perform on its contractual obligations. The Company’s exposure to credit risk mainly results from margin lending and client option and futures activities, securities lending, mortgage lending, pledged asset lending, its role as a counterparty in financial contracts, and other investing activities. Client investing activities often include the use of leverage through margin, options, and futures positions. The Company manages collateral concentrations at the account level and across client portfolios.

The credit risk exposure related to the Company’s bank loans is actively managed through individual loan and portfolio reviews. Management regularly reviews asset quality, including concentrations, delinquencies, nonaccrual loans, charge-offs, and recoveries. All are factors in the determination of an appropriate allowance for loan losses. For more information on the Company’s credit quality indicators relating to its bank loans, see Item 1 – Note 4.

The Company also has exposure to concentration risk when holding large positions in financial instruments collateralized by assets with similar economic characteristics or in securities of a single issuer or within a particular industry or geographical area. The fair value of the Company’s investments in corporate debt securities and commercial paper totaled $11.3 billion at March 31, 2017, with 43% issued by institutions in the financial services industry. For more information on the Company’s investment portfolios, see Item 1 – Note 3.

Market Risk

Market risk is the potential for changes in earnings or the value of financial instruments held by the Company as a result of fluctuations in interest rates, equity prices, or market conditions.

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk primarily from changes in market interest rates on its interest-earning assets relative to changes in the costs of its funding sources that finance these assets. The majority of the Company’s interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities are sensitive to changes in short-term interest rates. A portion of the Company’s investment portfolio is sensitive to changes in long-term interest rates.

Net Interest Revenue Simulation

For the Company’s net interest revenue sensitivity analysis, the Company uses net interest revenue simulation modeling techniques to evaluate and manage the effect of changing interest rates. The simulation includes all interest-sensitive assets and liabilities. Key variables in the simulation include the repricing of financial instruments, prepayment, reinvestment, and product pricing assumptions. The Company uses constant balances and market rates in the simulation assumptions in order to minimize the number of variables and to better isolate risks. The simulations involve assumptions that are inherently uncertain and, as a result, cannot precisely estimate net interest revenue or predict the impact of changes in interest rates on net interest revenue. Actual results may differ from simulated results due to balance growth or decline and the timing, magnitude, and frequency of interest rate changes, as well as changes in market conditions and management strategies, including changes in asset and liability mix.

If the Company’s guidelines for its net interest revenue sensitivity are breached, management must report the breach to the Company’s Corporate Asset-Liability Management and Pricing Committee and establish a plan to address the interest rate risk. There were no breaches of the Company’s net interest revenue sensitivity risk limits during the first quarter of 2017 or year ended December 31, 2016.

As represented by the simulations presented below, the Company’s investment strategy is structured to produce an increase in net interest revenue when interest rates rise and, conversely, a decrease in net interest revenue when interest rates fall.

- 10 -

THE CHARLES SCHWAB CORPORATION

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

(Tabular Amounts in Millions, Except Ratios, or as Noted)

The simulations in the following table assume that the asset and liability structure of the consolidated balance sheet would not be changed as a result of the simulated changes in interest rates. As the Company actively manages its consolidated balance sheet and interest rate exposure, in all likelihood the Company would take steps to manage additional interest rate exposure that could result from changes in the interest rate environment. The following table displays the simulated net interest revenue change over the next 12 months beginning March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 of a gradual 100 basis point increase or decrease in market interest rates relative to prevailing market rates at the end of each reporting period:

	March 31, 2017		December 31, 2016
Increase of 100 basis points	4.7	%	6.5	%
Decrease of 100 basis points	(9.6	)%	(9.8	)%

The change in net interest revenue sensitivities as of March 31, 2017 reflects the increase in interest rates across all terms. The increase of short-term interest rates positively impacts net interest revenue as yields on interest-earning assets rise faster than the cost of funding sources. A decline in interest rates could negatively impact the yield on the Company’s investment and loan portfolio to a greater degree than any offsetting reduction in interest expense from funding sources, compressing net interest margin.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the potential that the Company will be unable to sell assets or meet cash flow obligations when they come due without incurring unacceptable losses. The Company’s primary source of funds is cash generated by client activity: bank deposits and cash balances in client brokerage accounts. Other sources of funds may include cash flows from operations, maturities and sales of investment securities, repayments on loans, lending securities held in client brokerage accounts, and cash provided by external financing or equity offerings.

To meet daily funding needs, the Company maintains liquidity in the form of overnight cash deposits and short-term investments. For unanticipated liquidity needs, the Company maintains a buffer of highly liquid investments, currently comprised of U.S. Treasury notes.

In addition to internal sources of liquidity, the Company has sources of external funding. The following table describes debt facilities available to the Company:

		Available at
Description	Borrower	March 31, 2017 (1)
Committed, unsecured credit facility with various external banks	CSC	$	750
Uncommitted, unsecured lines of credit with various external banks	CSC, Schwab	1,102
Federal Reserve Bank discount window	Schwab Bank	3,839
Federal Home Loan Bank secured credit facility	Schwab Bank	18,166
Unsecured commercial paper	CSC	150

⁽¹⁾ See Item 1 – Note 7 for information on amounts outstanding. For additional information on the Company’s borrowing facilities, including financial covenants and other conditions of borrowing, see Item 7 – Liquidity Risk in the 2016 Form 10-K.

CSC has a universal automatic shelf registration statement on file with the SEC, which enables it to issue debt, equity, and other securities.

On March 2, 2017, CSC issued $650 million aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes that mature in 2027. The Senior Notes have a fixed interest rate of 3.200% with interest payable semi-annually. CSC intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of the Senior Notes for general corporate purposes, including, but not limited to, the repayment of $250 million aggregate principal amount of its 6.375% Senior Notes due September 1, 2017.

CSC’s ratings for commercial paper notes are P1 by Moody’s, A1 by Standard & Poor’s, and F1 by Fitch. CSC’s Senior Notes and Medium-Term Notes are rated A2 by Moody’s, A by Standard & Poor’s, and A by Fitch. CSC’s preferred stock is rated Baa2 by Moody’s, BBB by Standard & Poor’s, and BB+ by Fitch. For further discussion of CSC’s debt and equity, see Item 1 – Note 7 and Note 11.

Beginning on January 1, 2016, the Company became subject to the modified liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) rule which was fully phased in on January 1, 2017 and requires CSC to hold High Quality Liquid Assets equal to at least 70% of projected net cash outflows over a 30-day period, as defined by the rule. At March 31, 2017, the Company was in compliance with the fully phased-in modified LCR rule. For additional information on the LCR rule, see Item 1 – Business – Regulation in the 2016 Form 10‑K.

CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

The Company seeks to manage capital to a level and composition sufficient to support execution of its business strategy, including anticipated balance sheet growth, providing financial support to its subsidiaries, and sustained access to the capital markets, while at the same time meeting its regulatory capital requirements and serving as a source of financial strength to Schwab Bank.

The Company’s primary sources of capital are funds generated by the operations of its subsidiaries and securities issuances by CSC in the capital markets. To ensure that it has a sufficient amount of capital to absorb unanticipated losses or declines in asset values, the Company has adopted a policy to remain well capitalized even in stressed scenarios. For a description of the Company’s internal guidelines, monitoring and governance processes, see Item 7 – Capital Management in the 2016 Form 10‑K.

⁽¹⁾ CSC and Schwab Bank have elected to opt-out of the requirement to include most components of accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) in Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) Capital. The year after the Company surpasses $250 billion in consolidated assets, it can no longer exclude AOCI from regulatory capital.

Schwab Bank is also subject to regulatory requirements that restrict and govern the terms of affiliate transactions. In addition, Schwab Bank is required to provide notice to, and may be required to obtain approval from, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the Federal Reserve to declare dividends to CSC.

The Company’s broker-dealer subsidiaries (Schwab and optionsXpress, Inc. (optionsXpress)) are subject to regulatory requirements of the Uniform Net Capital Rule. At March 31, 2017, Schwab and optionsXpress met and exceeded their net capital requirements.

In addition to the capital requirements above, the Company’s subsidiaries are subject to various regulatory requirements that are intended to ensure financial soundness and liquidity.

OTHER

Foreign Holdings

At March 31, 2017, the Company had exposure to non-sovereign financial and non-financial institutions in foreign countries of $6.8 billion, with the fair value of the top three exposures being to issuers and counterparties domiciled in France at $1.8 billion, Sweden at $1.2 billion, and Australia at $0.9 billion. The Company has no direct exposure to sovereign foreign governments. The Company does not have unfunded commitments to counterparties in foreign countries, nor does it have exposure as a result of credit default protection purchased or sold separately as of March 31, 2017. 

In addition to the direct holdings in foreign companies, the Company has indirect exposure to foreign countries through its investments in CSIM money market funds (collectively, the Funds) resulting from brokerage clearing activities. At March 31, 2017, the Company had $113 million in investments in these Funds. Certain of the Funds’ positions include certificates of deposits, time deposits, commercial paper, and corporate debt securities issued by counterparties in foreign countries. Additionally, at March 31, 2017, the Company had outstanding margin loans to foreign residents of $405 million.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company enters into various off-balance sheet arrangements in the ordinary course of business, primarily to meet the needs of its clients. These arrangements include firm commitments to extend credit. Additionally, the Company enters into guarantees and other similar arrangements in the ordinary course of business. For information on each of these arrangements, see Item 1 – Note 4, Note 5, Note 7, and Note 8 , and Item 8 – Note 15 in the 2016 Form 10-K.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

Certain of the Company’s accounting policies that involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity are discussed in Part II – Item 7 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Critical Accounting Estimates in the 2016 Form 10-K. With the exception of adding Income Taxes, there have been no other changes to critical accounting estimates during the first three months of 2017.

Income Taxes

The Company estimates income tax expense based on amounts expected to be owed to the various tax jurisdictions in which it operates, including federal, state and local domestic jurisdictions, and insignificant amounts owed to several foreign jurisdictions. The estimated income tax expense is reported in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Accrued taxes are reported in other assets or other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and represent the net estimated amount due to or to be received from taxing jurisdictions either currently or deferred to future periods. Deferred taxes arise from differences between assets and liabilities measured for financial reporting purposes versus income tax reporting purposes. Deferred tax assets are recognized if, in management’s judgment, their realizability is determined to be more likely than not. Uncertain tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold are measured to determine the amount of benefit to recognize. An uncertain tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit management believes is more likely than not to be realized upon settlement. In estimating accrued taxes, the Company assesses the relative merits and risks of the appropriate tax treatment considering statutory, judicial and regulatory guidance in the context of the tax position. Because of the complexity of tax laws and regulations, interpretation can be difficult and subject to legal judgment given specific facts and circumstances.  

Changes in the estimate of accrued taxes occur periodically due to changes in tax rates, interpretations of tax laws, the status of examinations being conducted by various taxing authorities, and newly enacted statutory, judicial and regulatory guidance that impacts the relative merits and risks of tax positions. These changes, when they occur, affect accrued taxes and can be significant to the operating results of the Company.

1.    Introduction and Basis of Presentation

CSC is a savings and loan holding company engaged, through its subsidiaries, in wealth management, securities brokerage, banking, asset management, custody, and financial advisory services. Schwab is a securities broker-dealer with over 335 domestic branch offices in 46 states, as well as a branch in each of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico and London, England. In addition, Schwab serves clients in Hong Kong through one of CSC’s subsidiaries. Other subsidiaries include Schwab Bank, a federal savings bank, and CSIM, the investment advisor for Schwab’s proprietary mutual funds, which are referred to as the Schwab Funds^®, and for Schwab’s exchange-traded funds, which are referred to as the Schwab ETFs™.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include CSC and its majority-owned subsidiaries (collectively, referred to as the Company). Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S., which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the accompanying financial statements. Certain estimates relate to other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI) of investment securities, valuation of goodwill, allowance for loan losses, legal and regulatory reserves, and income taxes. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

These condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented. These adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The Company’s results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year or any other interim period. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the 2016 Form 10-K.

The Company’s significant accounting policies are included in Note 2 in the 2016 Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes to these accounting policies during the first three months of 2017 except as described in Note 2 below.

Principles of Consolidation

The Company evaluates for consolidation all entities in which it has financial interests, except for money market funds which are specifically excluded from consolidation guidance. For an entity subject to consolidation, the Company evaluates whether the Company’s interest in the entity constitutes a controlling financial interest under either the variable interest entity (VIE) model or a voting interest entity (VOE) model. Based upon the Company’s assessments, the Company is not deemed to have a controlling financial interest in and, therefore, is not required to consolidate any VIEs. See Note 5 for further information about VIEs. The Company consolidates all VOEs in which it has majority-voting interests.

For investments in entities in which the Company does not have a controlling financial interest, the Company accounts for those investments under the equity method of accounting when the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financing decisions of the entity. Investments in entities for which the Company does not have the ability to exercise significant influence are generally carried at cost. Both equity method and cost method investments are included in other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

2.    New Accounting Standards

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

On January 1, 2017, the Company adopted, on a prospective basis, ASU 2016-09, “Stock Compensation – Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (Topic 718)”, which requires entities to recognize the income tax effects for the difference between generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and federal income tax treatment (i.e., excess tax benefit or deficiency) of share-based awards in the income statement when the awards vest or are settled, rather than recording such effects in additional paid-in capital. As a result, the Company’s tax expense was reduced by approximately $31 million in the first quarter of 2017. Future effects will depend on the Company’s share price, restricted stock vesting, and the volume of equity incentive options exercised. For the purpose of recognizing compensation cost associated with share-based awards, ASU 2016-09 also provides entities with an accounting policy election to account for forfeitures of awards as they occur or continue

- 21 -

THE CHARLES SCHWAB CORPORATION

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Tabular Amounts in Millions, Except Per Share Data, Ratios, or as Noted)

(Unaudited)

with current practice of estimating forfeitures at the grant date to determine the number of awards expected to vest and adjusting that estimate as necessary. The Company has elected to continue to follow the current practice.

New Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606),” which provides new guidance on revenue recognition. The guidance clarifies that revenue from contracts with customers should be recognized in a manner that depicts the timing of the related transfer of goods or performance of services at an amount that reflects the expected consideration. The FASB has subsequently issued several amendments to the standard, including deferral of the effective date until January 1, 2018, clarification of principal versus agent considerations, narrow scope improvements and other technical corrections. Entities may elect either full or modified retrospective transition. Full retrospective transition will require a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the earliest comparative period presented. Modified retrospective transition will require a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the reporting period in which the entity first applies the new guidance.

The Company plans to adopt the revenue recognition guidance in the first quarter of 2018. The guidance does not apply to revenue associated with financial instruments, including loans and securities that are accounted for under other U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, the Company does not expect an impact to net interest revenue. While the Company has not yet identified any changes in the timing of revenue recognition, the Company’s review is ongoing. The Company is evaluating the impact the new standard will have on the presentation of certain revenue streams (gross versus net reporting) and the capitalization of contract costs. The Company has not yet selected a transition method and continues to evaluate the impact the new guidance will have on its financial statements and earnings per common share (EPS).

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, “Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10),” which will become effective January 1, 2018. This new guidance addresses certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. The main provisions of the guidance include (i) most equity investments are to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income, except for those accounted for under the equity method or those that do not have readily determinable fair values for which a practical expedient can be elected, (ii) requires the use of an exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes, and (iii) requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial instrument on the balance sheet or in the accompanying notes. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2016-01 will have a material impact on its financial statements and EPS.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” which amends the accounting for leases by lessees and lessors. The primary change as a result of the new standard is the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases. Additional changes include accounting for lease origination and executory costs, required lessee reassessments during the lease term due to changes in circumstances and expanded lease disclosures. ASU 2016-02 will become effective January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted, and requires entities to apply the new guidance using a modified retrospective transition. Modified retrospective transition requires entities to apply the new guidance as of the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements in which the entity first applies the new standard. Certain transition reliefs are permitted if elected by the entity. The adoption of ASU 2016-02 will result in the Company recognizing a right-of-use asset and lease liability on the consolidated balance sheet based on the present value of remaining operating lease payments (see Note 14 of the Company’s 2016 Form 10-K for the undiscounted future annual minimum rental commitments for operating leases). The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have a material impact on its EPS.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” which provides new guidance for recognizing impairment of most debt instruments measured at amortized cost, including loans and HTM debt securities. The new guidance will require estimating expected credit losses (CECL) over the remaining life of an instrument or a portfolio of instruments with similar risk characteristics based on relevant information about past events, current conditions, and reasonable forecasts. The initial estimate of and the subsequent changes in CECL will be recognized as credit loss expense through current earnings and will be reflected as an allowance for credit losses offsetting the carrying value of the financial instrument(s) on the balance sheet. The new guidance also amends the OTTI model for AFS debt securities by requiring the use of an allowance, rather than directly reducing the carrying value of the security, and eliminating consideration of the length of time such security has been in an unrealized loss position as a factor in concluding whether a credit loss exists. ASU 2016-13 will become effective January 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted as

of January 1, 2019. The new guidance will be applied through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the entity applies the new guidance except that a prospective transition is required for AFS debt securities for which an OTTI had been recognized before the effective date. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance on its financial statements and EPS.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-08, “Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities” which shortens the amortization period for the premium on certain callable debt securities to the earliest call date. The amendments are applicable to any purchased individual debt security with an explicit and noncontingent call feature that is callable at a fixed price on a preset date. The amendments do not impact the accounting for callable debt securities held at a discount, which will continue to be accreted to maturity. ASU 2017-08 will become effective on January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted including adoption in an interim period. The amendments will be applied on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2017-08 on its financial statements and EPS.

The increase in the HTM portfolio at March 31, 2017 compared to December 31, 2016 was primarily attributable to the transfer of $24.7 billion of investment securities from the AFS category to the HTM category during the first quarter of 2017. These securities had a total net unrealized loss of $227 million before income tax in AOCI on the date of transfer. The transfer was made to mitigate the potential volatility on regulatory capital from changes in market values in the AFS securities portfolio and the related impact to AOCI once the Company crosses $250 billion in consolidated assets. The year after the Company surpasses $250 billion in consolidated assets, it can no longer exclude AOCI from regulatory capital. The transfer included U.S. agency mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities, corporate debt securities, and U.S. state and municipal securities. The unrealized holding gains and losses on the date of transfer are reported as a separate component of AOCI and as an adjustment to the purchase premium and discount on the securities transferred. The separate component of AOCI will be

amortized or accreted into interest income over the remaining life of the securities transferred, offsetting the revised premium or discount amortization or accretion on the transferred assets.

Residential real estate mortgages (First Mortgages) and home equity loans and lines of credit (HELOCs) include unamortized premiums and discounts and direct origination costs of $78 million at both March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016. The Company had commitments to extend credit related to unused HELOCs, pledged asset lines (PALs), and other lines of credit, which totaled $8.8 billion and $8.4 billion at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. The Company had commitments to purchase First Mortgage loans of $453 million and $466 million at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. All PALs were fully collateralized by securities with fair values in excess of borrowings at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

Schwab Bank provides a co-branded loan origination program for Schwab Bank clients (the Program) with Quicken Loans, Inc. (Quicken Loans^®). Pursuant to the Program, Quicken Loans originates and services First Mortgages and HELOCs for Schwab Bank clients. Under the Program, Schwab Bank purchases certain First Mortgages and HELOCs that are originated by Quicken Loans. Schwab Bank purchased First Mortgages of $665 million and $557 million during the first quarters of 2017 and 2016, respectively. Schwab Bank purchased HELOCs with commitments of $118 million and $110 million during the first quarters of 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Nonperforming assets, which include nonaccrual loans and other real estate owned, totaled $33 million and $31 million at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. Impaired assets, which include nonaccrual loans, other real estate owned and troubled debt restructurings, totaled $46 million and $45 million at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.Troubled debt restructurings were not material at March 31, 2017 or December 31, 2016.

In addition to monitoring delinquency, the Company monitors the credit quality of First Mortgages and HELOCs by stratifying the portfolios by the following:

• Year of origination;

• Borrower FICO scores at origination (Origination FICO);

• Updated borrower FICO scores (Updated FICO);

• Loan-to-value ratios at origination (Origination LTV); and

• Estimated current LTV ratios (Estimated Current LTV).

Borrowers’ FICO scores are provided by an independent third-party credit reporting service and were last updated in March 2017. The Origination LTV and Estimated Current LTV for a HELOC include any first lien mortgage outstanding on the same property at the time of the HELOC’s origination. The Estimated Current LTV for each loan is estimated by reference to a home price appreciation index.

As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, 48% of the Company’s HELOC and First Mortgage portfolio was concentrated in California. These loans have performed in a manner consistent with the portfolio as a whole. 

The credit quality indicators of the Company’s bank loan portfolio are detailed below:

The Company’s bank loans include $8.5 billion of adjustable rate First Mortgage loans at March 31, 2017. The Company’s adjustable rate mortgages have initial fixed interest rates for three to ten years and interest rates that adjust annually thereafter.Approximately 35% of these mortgages consisted of loans with interest-only payment terms. The interest rates on approximately 56% of these interest-only loans are not scheduled to reset for three or more years. The Company’s mortgage loans do not include interest terms described as temporary introductory rates below current market rates.

The Company’s HELOC product has a 30-year loan term with an initial draw period of ten years from the date of origination. After the initial draw period, the balance outstanding at such time is converted to a 20-year amortizing loan. The interest rate during the initial draw period and the 20-year amortizing period is a floating rate based on the prime rate plus a margin. HELOCs that convert to an amortizing loan may experience higher delinquencies and higher loss rates than those in the initial draw period. The Company’s allowance for loan loss methodology takes this increased inherent risk into consideration. 

The following table presents when current outstanding HELOCs will convert to amortizing loans:

March 31, 2017	Balance
Converted to an amortizing loan by period end	$	465
Within 1 year	171
> 1 year – 3 years	760
> 3 years – 5 years	175

At March 31, 2017, $1.8 billion of the HELOC portfolio was secured by second liens on the associated properties. Second lien mortgage loans typically possess a higher degree of credit risk given the subordination to the first lien holder in the event of default. In addition to the credit monitoring activities described previously, the Company also monitors credit risk by reviewing the delinquency status of the first lien loan on the associated property. At March 31, 2017, approximately 36% of the HELOC borrowers that had a balance only paid the minimum amount of interest due.

5.    Variable Interest Entities

A VIE requires consolidation by the entity’s primary beneficiary. The Company evaluates all entities in which it has a financial interest to determine if the entity is a VIE and if so, whether the Company is the primary beneficiary. See Principles of Consolidation in Note 1 for discussion of the Company’s evaluations of VIEs and whether it is deemed to be the primary beneficiary of any VIEs in which it holds an interest. The Company was not the primary beneficiary of, and therefore, not required to consolidate any VIEs at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the majority of the Company’s VIEs related to Schwab Bank’s Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) investments. Schwab Bank’s LIHTC investments are accounted for using the proportional amortization method. Amortization, tax credits, and other tax benefits recognized in relation to LIHTC investments are included in taxes on income in the condensed consolidated statements of income. For further information on the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) and Schwab Bank’s LIHTC investments, see Note 2 and Note 10 in the 2016 Form 10-K.

The carrying value of the LIHTC investments was $201 million and $189 million as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, which is included in other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Schwab Bank recorded liabilities of $139 million and $135 million for unfunded commitments related to LIHTC investments at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, which are included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Schwab Bank’s funding of these remaining commitments is dependent upon the occurrence of certain conditions and Schwab Bank expects to pay substantially all of these commitments between 2017 and 2020.

Aggregate assets, liabilities and maximum exposure to loss

The aggregate assets, liabilities, and maximum exposure to loss from those VIEs in which the Company holds a variable interest, but as to which the Company has concluded it is not the primary beneficiary, are summarized in the table below:

	March 31, 2017						December 31, 2016
	Aggregate assets		Aggregate liabilities		Maximum exposure to loss		Aggregate assets		Aggregate liabilities		Maximum exposure to loss
LIHTC investments	$	201	$	139	$	201	$	189	$	135	$	189
Other CRA investments (1)	63		—		84		60		—		80
Total	$	264	$	139	$	285	$	249	$	135	$	269

⁽¹⁾  Other CRA investments are recorded using either the cost method or the equity method. Aggregate assets are included in either other assets or bank loans – net on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Company’s maximum exposure to loss would result from the loss of the investments, including any committed amounts. During the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company did not provide or intend to provide financial or other support to the VIEs that it was not contractually required to provide.

Short-term borrowings: Schwab Bank maintains a secured credit facility with the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco (FHLB). Amounts available under this facility are dependent on the amount of Schwab Bank’s First Mortgages, HELOCs, and the fair value of certain of Schwab Bank’s investment securities that are pledged as collateral. As a condition of the borrowings, Schwab Bank is required to hold FHLB stock, with the investment recorded in other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Schwab Bank sold $64 million of FHLB stock in the first quarter of 2017. Schwab Bank did not purchase or sell

(Unaudited)

FHLB stock during the first quarter of 2016. No funds were drawn under this facility as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

CSC has authorization from its Board of Directors to issue Commercial Paper Notes not to exceed $1.5 billion. Management has set a current limit for the commercial paper program not to exceed the amount of the committed, unsecured credit facility, which was $750 million at March 31, 2017. CSC had $600 million of Commercial Paper Notes outstanding at March 31, 2017 and no borrowings outstanding at December 31, 2016.

8.    Commitments and Contingencies

Guarantees and indemnifications: The Company has clients that sell (i.e., write) listed option contracts that are cleared by the Options Clearing Corporation – a clearing house that establishes margin requirements on these transactions. The Company partially satisfies the margin requirements by arranging unsecured standby letter of credit agreements (LOCs), in favor of the Options Clearing Corporation, which are issued by several banks. At March 31, 2017, the aggregate face amount of these LOCs totaled $295 million. There were no funds drawn under any of these LOCs at March 31, 2017. In connection with its securities lending activities, the Company is required to provide collateral to certain brokerage clients. The Company satisfies the collateral requirements by providing cash as collateral.

The Company also provides guarantees to securities clearing houses and exchanges under standard membership agreements, which require members to guarantee the performance of other members. Under the agreements, if another member becomes unable to satisfy its obligations to the clearing houses and exchanges, other members would be required to meet shortfalls. The Company’s liability under these arrangements is not quantifiable and may exceed the cash and securities it has posted as collateral. The potential requirement for the Company to make payments under these arrangements is remote. Accordingly, no liability has been recognized for these guarantees.

Legal contingencies: The Company is subject to claims and lawsuits in the ordinary course of business, including arbitrations, class actions and other litigation, some of which include claims for substantial or unspecified damages. The Company is also the subject of inquiries, investigations, and proceedings by regulatory and other governmental agencies.

The Company believes it has strong defenses in all significant matters currently pending and is contesting liability and any damages claimed. Nevertheless, some of these matters may result in adverse judgments or awards, including penalties, injunctions or other relief, and the Company may also determine to settle a matter because of the uncertainty and risks of litigation. Described below are certain matters in which there is a reasonable possibility that a material loss could be incurred or where the matter may otherwise be of significant interest to stockholders. Unless otherwise noted, the Company is unable to provide a reasonable estimate of any potential liability given the stage of proceedings in the matter.

With respect to all other pending matters, based on current information and consultation with counsel, it does not appear reasonably possible that the outcome of any such matter would be material to the financial condition, operating results or cash flows of the Company. Predicting the outcome of a litigation or regulatory matter is inherently difficult, requiring significant judgment and evaluation of various factors, including the procedural status of the matter and any recent developments; prior experience and the experience of others in similar cases; available defenses, including potential opportunities to dispose of a case on the merits or procedural grounds before trial (e.g., motions to dismiss or for summary judgment); the progress of fact discovery; the opinions of counsel and experts regarding potential damages; potential opportunities for settlement and the status of any settlement discussions; and potential insurance coverage and indemnification. It may not be possible to reasonably estimate potential liability, if any, or a range of potential liability until the matter is closer to resolution – pending, for example, further proceedings, the outcome of key motions or appeals, or discussions among the parties. Numerous issues may have to be developed, such as discovery of important factual matters and determination of threshold legal issues, which may include novel or unsettled questions of law. Reserves are established or adjusted or further disclosure and estimates of potential loss are provided as the matter progresses and more information becomes available.

Total Bond Market Fund Litigation: On August 28, 2008, a class action lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California on behalf of investors in the Schwab Total Bond Market Fund^™. The lawsuit, which alleged violations of state law and federal securities law in connection with the fund’s investment policy, named CSIM, Schwab Investments (registrant and issuer of the fund’s shares) and certain current and former fund trustees as defendants. Allegations

- 33 -

(Unaudited)

include that the fund improperly deviated from its stated investment objectives by investing in collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs) and investing more than 25% of fund assets in CMOs and mortgage-backed securities without obtaining a fundholder vote. Plaintiff seeks unspecified compensatory and rescission damages, unspecified equitable and injunctive relief, costs and attorneys’ fees. Plaintiff’s federal securities law claim and certain of plaintiff’s state law claims were dismissed. On August 8, 2011, the court dismissed plaintiff’s remaining claims with prejudice. Plaintiff appealed to the Ninth Circuit, which issued a ruling on March 9, 2015 reversing the district court’s dismissal of the case and remanding the case for further proceedings. Plaintiff filed a fourth amended complaint on June 25, 2015, and in decisions issued October 6, 2015 and February 23, 2016, the court dismissed all claims with prejudice. Plaintiff has appealed to the Ninth Circuit, where the case is again pending.

9.     Offsetting Assets and Liabilities

Resale and repurchase agreements: Schwab enters into collateralized resale agreements principally with other broker-dealers, which could result in losses in the event the counterparty fails to purchase the securities held as collateral for the cash advanced and the fair value of the securities declines. To mitigate this risk, Schwab requires that the counterparty deliver securities to a custodian, to be held as collateral, with a fair value at or in excess of the resale price. Schwab also sets standards for the credit quality of the counterparty, monitors the fair value of the underlying securities as compared to the related receivable, including accrued interest, and requires additional collateral where deemed appropriate. Schwab utilizes the collateral provided under these resale agreements to meet obligations under broker-dealer client protection rules, which place limitations on its ability to access such segregated securities. For Schwab to repledge or sell this collateral, it would be required to deposit cash and/or securities of an equal amount into its segregated reserve bank accounts in order to meet its segregated cash and investment requirement. The Company’s resale agreements are not subject to master netting arrangements.

Securities lending: The Company loans brokerage client securities temporarily to other brokers and clearing houses in connection with its securities lending activities and receives cash as collateral for the securities loaned. Increases in security prices may cause the fair value of the securities loaned to exceed the amount of cash received as collateral. In the event the counterparty to these transactions does not return the loaned securities or provide additional cash collateral, the Company may be exposed to the risk of acquiring the securities at prevailing market prices in order to satisfy its client obligations. The Company mitigates this risk by requiring credit approvals for counterparties, monitoring the fair value of securities loaned, and requiring additional cash as collateral when necessary. The Company borrows securities from other broker-dealers to fulfill short sales by brokerage clients and delivers cash to the lender in exchange for the securities. The fair value of these borrowed securities was $324 million at March 31, 2017 and $213 million at December 31, 2016. All of the Company’s securities lending transactions are subject to enforceable master netting arrangements with other broker-dealers; however, the Company does not net securities lending transactions. Therefore, the Company’s securities loaned and securities borrowed are presented gross in the consolidated balance sheets.

10.    Fair Values of Assets and Liabilities

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis

The Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis include certain cash equivalents, certain investments segregated and on deposit for regulatory purposes, other securities owned, and AFS securities. The Company uses the market approach to determine the fair value of assets and liabilities. When available, the Company uses quoted prices in active markets to measure the fair value of assets and liabilities. When utilizing market data and bid-ask spread, the Company uses the price within the bid-ask spread that best represents fair value. When quoted prices do not exist, the Company uses prices obtained from independent third-party pricing services to measure the fair value of investment assets. The Company generally obtains prices from at least three independent pricing sources for assets recorded at fair value.

The Company’s primary independent pricing service provides prices based on observable trades and discounted cash flows that incorporate observable information such as yields for similar types of securities (a benchmark interest rate plus observable spreads) and weighted-average maturity for the same or similar “to-be-issued” securities. The Company compares the prices obtained from its primary independent pricing service to the prices obtained from the additional independent pricing services to determine if the price obtained from the primary independent pricing service is reasonable. The Company does not adjust the prices received from independent third-party pricing services unless such prices are inconsistent with the definition of fair value and result in a material difference in the recorded amounts.

Fair value of other financial instruments

Descriptions of the valuation methodologies and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of other financial instruments are described below. The Company’s financial instruments not recorded at fair value but for which fair value can be approximated and disclosed include:

• Cash and cash equivalents are short-term in nature and accordingly are recorded at amounts that approximate fair value.

• Cash and investments segregated and on deposit for regulatory purposes include cash and securities purchased under resale agreements. Securities purchased under resale agreements are short-term in nature and are backed by collateral that both exceeds the carrying value of the resale agreement and is highly liquid in nature. Accordingly, the carrying values of these financial instruments approximate their fair values.

• Receivables from/payables to brokers, dealers, and clearing organizations are short-term in nature, recorded at contractual amounts and historically have been settled at those values. Accordingly, the carrying values of these financial instruments approximate their fair values.

• Receivables from/payables to brokerage clients — net are short-term in nature, recorded at contractual amounts and historically have been settled at those values. Accordingly, the carrying values of these financial instruments approximate their fair values.

• HTM securities – The fair values of HTM securities are obtained using an independent third-party pricing service similar to investment assets recorded at fair value as discussed above.

• Bank loans – The fair values of the Company’s First Mortgages and HELOCs are estimated based on prices of mortgage-backed securities collateralized by similar types of loans. PALs are non-purpose revolving lines of credit secured by eligible assets; accordingly, the carrying values of these loans approximate their fair values.

• Financial instruments included in other assets primarily consist of LIHTC investments, cost method investments, and FHLB stock, whose carrying values approximate their fair values. FHLB stock is recorded at par, which approximates its fair value.

• Bank deposits have no stated maturity and are recorded at the amount payable on demand as of the balance sheet date. The Company considers the carrying values of these deposits to approximate their fair values.

• Financial instruments included in accrued expenses and other liabilities consist of drafts payable and certain amounts due under contractual obligations, including unfunded LIHTC commitments. The carrying values of these instruments approximate their fair values.

• Short-term borrowings consist of commercial paper and funds drawn on Schwab Bank’s secured credit facility with the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco. Due to the short-term nature of these borrowings, carrying value approximates fair value.

• Long-term debt – Except for the finance lease obligation, the fair values of long-term debt are estimated using indicative, non-binding quotes from independent brokers. The Company validates indicative prices for its debt through comparison to other independent non-binding quotes. The finance lease obligation is recorded at carrying value, which approximates fair value.

• Firm commitments to extend credit – The Company extends credit to banking clients through HELOCs and PALs. The Company considers the fair value of these unused commitments to not be material because the interest rates earned on these balances are based on floating interest rates that reset monthly.

For a description of the fair value hierarchy, see Note 2 in the 2016 Form 10-K. There were no significant changes in these policies and methodologies during the first three months of 2017. The Company did not transfer any assets or liabilities between Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 during the three months ended March 31, 2017, or the year ended December 31, 2016. In addition, the Company did not adjust prices received from the primary independent third-party pricing service at March 31, 2017 or December 31, 2016.

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

At March 31, 2017, approximately $596 million of future share repurchases are authorized under the Share Repurchase Program. There were no share repurchases during the first quarter of 2017. There were two authorizations under this program by CSC’s Board of Directors, each covering up to $500 million of common stock that were publicly announced by the Company on April 25, 2007, and March 13, 2008. The remaining authorizations do not have an expiration date.

The following table summarizes purchases made by or on behalf of CSC of its common stock for each calendar month in the first quarter of 2017:

Month	Total Number of Shares Purchased (in thousands)	Average Price Paid per Share
January:
Employee transactions (1)	10	$	40.32

The Company may receive shares delivered or attested to pay the exercise price and/or to satisfy tax withholding obligations by employees who exercise stock options granted under employee stock incentive plans, which are commonly referred to as stock swap exercises.

⁽¹⁾  The ratios of earnings to fixed charges and earnings to fixed charges and preferred stock dividends and other are calculated in accordance with SEC requirements. For such purposes, “earnings” consist of earnings before taxes on earnings and fixed charges. “Fixed charges” consist of interest expense as listed above, and one-third of property, equipment and software rental expense, which is estimated to be representative of the interest factor.

⁽²⁾  Because interest expense incurred in connection with both bank deposits and payables to brokerage clients is completely offset by interest revenue on related investments and loans, the Company considers such interest to be an operating expense. Accordingly, the ratio of earnings to fixed charges, excluding bank deposits and payables to brokerage clients interest expense, and the ratio of earnings to fixed charges and preferred stock dividends and other, excluding bank deposits and payables to brokerage clients interest expense, reflect the elimination of such interest expense as a fixed charge.

⁽³⁾  The preferred stock dividend and other amounts represent the pre-tax earnings that would be required to pay the dividends on outstanding preferred stock and undistributed earnings and dividends allocated to non-vested restricted stock units.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Introduction and Basis of Presentation

Introduction and Basis of Presentation

CSC is a savings and loan holding company engaged, through its subsidiaries, in wealth management, securities brokerage, banking, asset management, custody, and financial advisory services. Schwab is a securities broker-dealer with over 335 domestic branch offices in 46 states, as well as a branch in each of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico and London, England. In addition, Schwab serves clients in Hong Kong through one of CSC’s subsidiaries. Other subsidiaries include Schwab Bank, a federal savings bank, and CSIM, the investment advisor for Schwab’s proprietary mutual funds, which are referred to as the Schwab Funds^®, and for Schwab’s exchange-traded funds, which are referred to as the Schwab ETFs™.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include CSC and its majority-owned subsidiaries (collectively, referred to as the Company). Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S., which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the accompanying financial statements. Certain estimates relate to other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI) of investment securities, valuation of goodwill, allowance for loan losses, legal and regulatory reserves, and income taxes. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

These condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented. These adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The Company’s results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year or any other interim period. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the 2016 Form 10-K.

The Company’s significant accounting policies are included in Note 2 in the 2016 Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes to these accounting policies during the first three months of 2017 except as described in Note 2 below.

Principles of Consolidation

The Company evaluates for consolidation all entities in which it has financial interests, except for money market funds which are specifically excluded from consolidation guidance. For an entity subject to consolidation, the Company evaluates whether the Company’s interest in the entity constitutes a controlling financial interest under either the variable interest entity (VIE) model or a voting interest entity (VOE) model. Based upon the Company’s assessments, the Company is not deemed to have a controlling financial interest in and, therefore, is not required to consolidate any VIEs. See Note 5 for further information about VIEs. The Company consolidates all VOEs in which it has majority-voting interests.

For investments in entities in which the Company does not have a controlling financial interest, the Company accounts for those investments under the equity method of accounting when the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financing decisions of the entity. Investments in entities for which the Company does not have the ability to exercise significant influence are generally carried at cost. Both equity method and cost method investments are included in other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract]

New Accounting Standards

New Accounting Standards

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

On January 1, 2017, the Company adopted, on a prospective basis, ASU 2016-09, “Stock Compensation – Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (Topic 718)”, which requires entities to recognize the income tax effects for the difference between generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and federal income tax treatment (i.e., excess tax benefit or deficiency) of share-based awards in the income statement when the awards vest or are settled, rather than recording such effects in additional paid-in capital. As a result, the Company’s tax expense was reduced by approximately $31 million in the first quarter of 2017. Future effects will depend on the Company’s share price, restricted stock vesting, and the volume of equity incentive options exercised. For the purpose of recognizing compensation cost associated with share-based awards, ASU 2016-09 also provides entities with an accounting policy election to account for forfeitures of awards as they occur or continue with current practice of estimating forfeitures at the grant date to determine the number of awards expected to vest and adjusting that estimate as necessary. The Company has elected to continue to follow the current practice.

New Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606),” which provides new guidance on revenue recognition. The guidance clarifies that revenue from contracts with customers should be recognized in a manner that depicts the timing of the related transfer of goods or performance of services at an amount that reflects the expected consideration. The FASB has subsequently issued several amendments to the standard, including deferral of the effective date until January 1, 2018, clarification of principal versus agent considerations, narrow scope improvements and other technical corrections. Entities may elect either full or modified retrospective transition. Full retrospective transition will require a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the earliest comparative period presented. Modified retrospective transition will require a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the reporting period in which the entity first applies the new guidance.

The Company plans to adopt the revenue recognition guidance in the first quarter of 2018. The guidance does not apply to revenue associated with financial instruments, including loans and securities that are accounted for under other U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, the Company does not expect an impact to net interest revenue. While the Company has not yet identified any changes in the timing of revenue recognition, the Company’s review is ongoing. The Company is evaluating the impact the new standard will have on the presentation of certain revenue streams (gross versus net reporting) and the capitalization of contract costs. The Company has not yet selected a transition method and continues to evaluate the impact the new guidance will have on its financial statements and earnings per common share (EPS).

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, “Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10),” which will become effective January 1, 2018. This new guidance addresses certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. The main provisions of the guidance include (i) most equity investments are to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income, except for those accounted for under the equity method or those that do not have readily determinable fair values for which a practical expedient can be elected, (ii) requires the use of an exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes, and (iii) requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial instrument on the balance sheet or in the accompanying notes. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2016-01 will have a material impact on its financial statements and EPS.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” which amends the accounting for leases by lessees and lessors. The primary change as a result of the new standard is the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases. Additional changes include accounting for lease origination and executory costs, required lessee reassessments during the lease term due to changes in circumstances and expanded lease disclosures. ASU 2016-02 will become effective January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted, and requires entities to apply the new guidance using a modified retrospective transition. Modified retrospective transition requires entities to apply the new guidance as of the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements in which the entity first applies the new standard. Certain transition reliefs are permitted if elected by the entity. The adoption of ASU 2016-02 will result in the Company recognizing a right-of-use asset and lease liability on the consolidated balance sheet based on the present value of remaining operating lease payments (see Note 14 of the Company’s 2016 Form 10-K for the undiscounted future annual minimum rental commitments for operating leases). The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have a material impact on its EPS.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” which provides new guidance for recognizing impairment of most debt instruments measured at amortized cost, including loans and HTM debt securities. The new guidance will require estimating expected credit losses (CECL) over the remaining life of an instrument or a portfolio of instruments with similar risk characteristics based on relevant information about past events, current conditions, and reasonable forecasts. The initial estimate of and the subsequent changes in CECL will be recognized as credit loss expense through current earnings and will be reflected as an allowance for credit losses offsetting the carrying value of the financial instrument(s) on the balance sheet. The new guidance also amends the OTTI model for AFS debt securities by requiring the use of an allowance, rather than directly reducing the carrying value of the security, and eliminating consideration of the length of time such security has been in an unrealized loss position as a factor in concluding whether a credit loss exists. ASU 2016-13 will become effective January 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted as of January 1, 2019. The new guidance will be applied through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the entity applies the new guidance except that a prospective transition is required for AFS debt securities for which an OTTI had been recognized before the effective date. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance on its financial statements and EPS.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-08, “Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities” which shortens the amortization period for the premium on certain callable debt securities to the earliest call date. The amendments are applicable to any purchased individual debt security with an explicit and noncontingent call feature that is callable at a fixed price on a preset date. The amendments do not impact the accounting for callable debt securities held at a discount, which will continue to be accreted to maturity. ASU 2017-08 will become effective on January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted including adoption in an interim period. The amendments will be applied on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2017-08 on its financial statements and EPS.

The increase in the HTM portfolio at March 31, 2017 compared to December 31, 2016 was primarily attributable to the transfer of $24.7 billion of investment securities from the AFS category to the HTM category during the first quarter of 2017. These securities had a total net unrealized loss of $227 million before income tax in AOCI on the date of transfer. The transfer was made to mitigate the potential volatility on regulatory capital from changes in market values in the AFS securities portfolio and the related impact to AOCI once the Company crosses $250 billion in consolidated assets. The year after the Company surpasses $250 billion in consolidated assets, it can no longer exclude AOCI from regulatory capital. The transfer included U.S. agency mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities, corporate debt securities, and U.S. state and municipal securities. The unrealized holding gains and losses on the date of transfer are reported as a separate component of AOCI and as an adjustment to the purchase premium and discount on the securities transferred. The separate component of AOCI will be amortized or accreted into interest income over the remaining life of the securities transferred, offsetting the revised premium or discount amortization or accretion on the transferred assets.

Schwab Bank pledges securities issued by federal agencies to secure certain trust deposits. The fair value of these pledged securities was $844 million at March 31, 2017.

Residential real estate mortgages (First Mortgages) and home equity loans and lines of credit (HELOCs) include unamortized premiums and discounts and direct origination costs of $78 million at both March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016. The Company had commitments to extend credit related to unused HELOCs, pledged asset lines (PALs), and other lines of credit, which totaled $8.8 billion and $8.4 billion at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. The Company had commitments to purchase First Mortgage loans of $453 million and $466 million at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. All PALs were fully collateralized by securities with fair values in excess of borrowings at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

Schwab Bank provides a co-branded loan origination program for Schwab Bank clients (the Program) with Quicken Loans, Inc. (Quicken Loans^®). Pursuant to the Program, Quicken Loans originates and services First Mortgages and HELOCs for Schwab Bank clients. Under the Program, Schwab Bank purchases certain First Mortgages and HELOCs that are originated by Quicken Loans. Schwab Bank purchased First Mortgages of $665 million and $557 million during the first quarters of 2017 and 2016, respectively. Schwab Bank purchased HELOCs with commitments of $118 million and $110 million during the first quarters of 2017 and 2016, respectively.

There were no loans accruing interest that were contractually 90 days or more past due at March 31, 2017 or December 31, 2016. Nonperforming assets, which include nonaccrual loans and other real estate owned, totaled $33 million and $31 million at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. Impaired assets, which include nonaccrual loans, other real estate owned and troubled debt restructurings, totaled $46 million and $45 million at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.Troubled debt restructurings were not material at March 31, 2017 or December 31, 2016.

In addition to monitoring delinquency, the Company monitors the credit quality of First Mortgages and HELOCs by stratifying the portfolios by the following:

• Year of origination;

• Borrower FICO scores at origination (Origination FICO);

• Updated borrower FICO scores (Updated FICO);

• Loan-to-value ratios at origination (Origination LTV); and

• Estimated current LTV ratios (Estimated Current LTV).

Borrowers’ FICO scores are provided by an independent third-party credit reporting service and were last updated in March 2017. The Origination LTV and Estimated Current LTV for a HELOC include any first lien mortgage outstanding on the same property at the time of the HELOC’s origination. The Estimated Current LTV for each loan is estimated by reference to a home price appreciation index.

As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, 48% of the Company’s HELOC and First Mortgage portfolio was concentrated in California. These loans have performed in a manner consistent with the portfolio as a whole.

The Company’s bank loans include $8.5 billion of adjustable rate First Mortgage loans at March 31, 2017. The Company’s adjustable rate mortgages have initial fixed interest rates for three to ten years and interest rates that adjust annually thereafter.Approximately 35% of these mortgages consisted of loans with interest-only payment terms. The interest rates on approximately 56% of these interest-only loans are not scheduled to reset for three or more years. The Company’s mortgage loans do not include interest terms described as temporary introductory rates below current market rates.

The Company’s HELOC product has a 30-year loan term with an initial draw period of ten years from the date of origination. After the initial draw period, the balance outstanding at such time is converted to a 20-year amortizing loan. The interest rate during the initial draw period and the 20-year amortizing period is a floating rate based on the prime rate plus a margin. HELOCs that convert to an amortizing loan may experience higher delinquencies and higher loss rates than those in the initial draw period. The Company’s allowance for loan loss methodology takes this increased inherent risk into consideration. 

The following table presents when current outstanding HELOCs will convert to amortizing loans:

March 31, 2017	Balance
Converted to an amortizing loan by period end	$	465
Within 1 year	171
> 1 year – 3 years	760
> 3 years – 5 years	175
> 5 years	659
Total	$	2,230

At March 31, 2017, $1.8 billion of the HELOC portfolio was secured by second liens on the associated properties. Second lien mortgage loans typically possess a higher degree of credit risk given the subordination to the first lien holder in the event of default. In addition to the credit monitoring activities described previously, the Company also monitors credit risk by reviewing the delinquency status of the first lien loan on the associated property. At March 31, 2017, approximately 36% of the HELOC borrowers that had a balance only paid the minimum amount of interest due.

Variable Interest Entities [Abstract]

Variable Interest Entities

Variable Interest Entities

A VIE requires consolidation by the entity’s primary beneficiary. The Company evaluates all entities in which it has a financial interest to determine if the entity is a VIE and if so, whether the Company is the primary beneficiary. See Principles of Consolidation in Note 1 for discussion of the Company’s evaluations of VIEs and whether it is deemed to be the primary beneficiary of any VIEs in which it holds an interest. The Company was not the primary beneficiary of, and therefore, not required to consolidate any VIEs at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the majority of the Company’s VIEs related to Schwab Bank’s Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) investments. Schwab Bank’s LIHTC investments are accounted for using the proportional amortization method. Amortization, tax credits, and other tax benefits recognized in relation to LIHTC investments are included in taxes on income in the condensed consolidated statements of income. For further information on the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) and Schwab Bank’s LIHTC investments, see Note 2 and Note 10 in the 2016 Form 10-K.

The carrying value of the LIHTC investments was $201 million and $189 million as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, which is included in other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Schwab Bank recorded liabilities of $139 million and $135 million for unfunded commitments related to LIHTC investments at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, which are included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Schwab Bank’s funding of these remaining commitments is dependent upon the occurrence of certain conditions and Schwab Bank expects to pay substantially all of these commitments between 2017 and 2020.

Aggregate assets, liabilities and maximum exposure to loss

The aggregate assets, liabilities, and maximum exposure to loss from those VIEs in which the Company holds a variable interest, but as to which the Company has concluded it is not the primary beneficiary, are summarized in the table below:

	March 31, 2017						December 31, 2016
	Aggregate assets		Aggregate liabilities		Maximum exposure to loss		Aggregate assets		Aggregate liabilities		Maximum exposure to loss
LIHTC investments	$	201	$	139	$	201	$	189	$	135	$	189
Other CRA investments (1)	63		—		84		60		—		80
Total	$	264	$	139	$	285	$	249	$	135	$	269

⁽¹⁾  Other CRA investments are recorded using either the cost method or the equity method. Aggregate assets are included in either other assets or bank loans – net on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Company’s maximum exposure to loss would result from the loss of the investments, including any committed amounts. During the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company did not provide or intend to provide financial or other support to the VIEs that it was not contractually required to provide.

Short-term borrowings: Schwab Bank maintains a secured credit facility with the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco (FHLB). Amounts available under this facility are dependent on the amount of Schwab Bank’s First Mortgages, HELOCs, and the fair value of certain of Schwab Bank’s investment securities that are pledged as collateral. As a condition of the borrowings, Schwab Bank is required to hold FHLB stock, with the investment recorded in other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Schwab Bank sold $64 million of FHLB stock in the first quarter of 2017. Schwab Bank did not purchase or sell FHLB stock during the first quarter of 2016. No funds were drawn under this facility as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

CSC has authorization from its Board of Directors to issue Commercial Paper Notes not to exceed $1.5 billion. Management has set a current limit for the commercial paper program not to exceed the amount of the committed, unsecured credit facility, which was $750 million at March 31, 2017.

Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments and Contingencies

Guarantees and indemnifications: The Company has clients that sell (i.e., write) listed option contracts that are cleared by the Options Clearing Corporation – a clearing house that establishes margin requirements on these transactions. The Company partially satisfies the margin requirements by arranging unsecured standby letter of credit agreements (LOCs), in favor of the Options Clearing Corporation, which are issued by several banks. At March 31, 2017, the aggregate face amount of these LOCs totaled $295 million. There were no funds drawn under any of these LOCs at March 31, 2017. In connection with its securities lending activities, the Company is required to provide collateral to certain brokerage clients. The Company satisfies the collateral requirements by providing cash as collateral.

The Company also provides guarantees to securities clearing houses and exchanges under standard membership agreements, which require members to guarantee the performance of other members. Under the agreements, if another member becomes unable to satisfy its obligations to the clearing houses and exchanges, other members would be required to meet shortfalls. The Company’s liability under these arrangements is not quantifiable and may exceed the cash and securities it has posted as collateral. The potential requirement for the Company to make payments under these arrangements is remote. Accordingly, no liability has been recognized for these guarantees.

Legal contingencies: The Company is subject to claims and lawsuits in the ordinary course of business, including arbitrations, class actions and other litigation, some of which include claims for substantial or unspecified damages. The Company is also the subject of inquiries, investigations, and proceedings by regulatory and other governmental agencies.

The Company believes it has strong defenses in all significant matters currently pending and is contesting liability and any damages claimed. Nevertheless, some of these matters may result in adverse judgments or awards, including penalties, injunctions or other relief, and the Company may also determine to settle a matter because of the uncertainty and risks of litigation. Described below are certain matters in which there is a reasonable possibility that a material loss could be incurred or where the matter may otherwise be of significant interest to stockholders. Unless otherwise noted, the Company is unable to provide a reasonable estimate of any potential liability given the stage of proceedings in the matter.

With respect to all other pending matters, based on current information and consultation with counsel, it does not appear reasonably possible that the outcome of any such matter would be material to the financial condition, operating results or cash flows of the Company. Predicting the outcome of a litigation or regulatory matter is inherently difficult, requiring significant judgment and evaluation of various factors, including the procedural status of the matter and any recent developments; prior experience and the experience of others in similar cases; available defenses, including potential opportunities to dispose of a case on the merits or procedural grounds before trial (e.g., motions to dismiss or for summary judgment); the progress of fact discovery; the opinions of counsel and experts regarding potential damages; potential opportunities for settlement and the status of any settlement discussions; and potential insurance coverage and indemnification. It may not be possible to reasonably estimate potential liability, if any, or a range of potential liability until the matter is closer to resolution – pending, for example, further proceedings, the outcome of key motions or appeals, or discussions among the parties. Numerous issues may have to be developed, such as discovery of important factual matters and determination of threshold legal issues, which may include novel or unsettled questions of law. Reserves are established or adjusted or further disclosure and estimates of potential loss are provided as the matter progresses and more information becomes available.

Total Bond Market Fund Litigation: On August 28, 2008, a class action lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California on behalf of investors in the Schwab Total Bond Market Fund^™. The lawsuit, which alleged violations of state law and federal securities law in connection with the fund’s investment policy, named CSIM, Schwab Investments (registrant and issuer of the fund’s shares) and certain current and former fund trustees as defendants. Allegations include that the fund improperly deviated from its stated investment objectives by investing in collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs) and investing more than 25% of fund assets in CMOs and mortgage-backed securities without obtaining a fundholder vote. Plaintiff seeks unspecified compensatory and rescission damages, unspecified equitable and injunctive relief, costs and attorneys’ fees. Plaintiff’s federal securities law claim and certain of plaintiff’s state law claims were dismissed. On August 8, 2011, the court dismissed plaintiff’s remaining claims with prejudice. Plaintiff appealed to the Ninth Circuit, which issued a ruling on March 9, 2015 reversing the district court’s dismissal of the case and remanding the case for further proceedings. Plaintiff filed a fourth amended complaint on June 25, 2015, and in decisions issued October 6, 2015 and February 23, 2016, the court dismissed all claims with prejudice. Plaintiff has appealed to the Ninth Circuit, where the case is again pending.

Offsetting [Abstract]

Offsetting Assets and Liabilities

Offsetting Assets and Liabilities

Resale and repurchase agreements: Schwab enters into collateralized resale agreements principally with other broker-dealers, which could result in losses in the event the counterparty fails to purchase the securities held as collateral for the cash advanced and the fair value of the securities declines. To mitigate this risk, Schwab requires that the counterparty deliver securities to a custodian, to be held as collateral, with a fair value at or in excess of the resale price. Schwab also sets standards for the credit quality of the counterparty, monitors the fair value of the underlying securities as compared to the related receivable, including accrued interest, and requires additional collateral where deemed appropriate. Schwab utilizes the collateral provided under these resale agreements to meet obligations under broker-dealer client protection rules, which place limitations on its ability to access such segregated securities. For Schwab to repledge or sell this collateral, it would be required to deposit cash and/or securities of an equal amount into its segregated reserve bank accounts in order to meet its segregated cash and investment requirement. The Company’s resale agreements are not subject to master netting arrangements.

Securities lending: The Company loans brokerage client securities temporarily to other brokers and clearing houses in connection with its securities lending activities and receives cash as collateral for the securities loaned. Increases in security prices may cause the fair value of the securities loaned to exceed the amount of cash received as collateral. In the event the counterparty to these transactions does not return the loaned securities or provide additional cash collateral, the Company may be exposed to the risk of acquiring the securities at prevailing market prices in order to satisfy its client obligations. The Company mitigates this risk by requiring credit approvals for counterparties, monitoring the fair value of securities loaned, and requiring additional cash as collateral when necessary. The Company borrows securities from other broker-dealers to fulfill short sales by brokerage clients and delivers cash to the lender in exchange for the securities. The fair value of these borrowed securities was $324 million at March 31, 2017 and $213 million at December 31, 2016. All of the Company’s securities lending transactions are subject to enforceable master netting arrangements with other broker-dealers; however, the Company does not net securities lending transactions. Therefore, the Company’s securities loaned and securities borrowed are presented gross in the consolidated balance sheets.

The following table presents information about the Company’s resale agreements and securities lending activity to enable the users of the Company’s financial statements to evaluate the potential effect of rights of setoff between these recognized assets and recognized liabilities at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Values of Assets and Liabilities

Fair Values of Assets and Liabilities

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis

The Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis include certain cash equivalents, certain investments segregated and on deposit for regulatory purposes, other securities owned, and AFS securities. The Company uses the market approach to determine the fair value of assets and liabilities. When available, the Company uses quoted prices in active markets to measure the fair value of assets and liabilities. When utilizing market data and bid-ask spread, the Company uses the price within the bid-ask spread that best represents fair value. When quoted prices do not exist, the Company uses prices obtained from independent third-party pricing services to measure the fair value of investment assets. The Company generally obtains prices from at least three independent pricing sources for assets recorded at fair value.

The Company’s primary independent pricing service provides prices based on observable trades and discounted cash flows that incorporate observable information such as yields for similar types of securities (a benchmark interest rate plus observable spreads) and weighted-average maturity for the same or similar “to-be-issued” securities. The Company compares the prices obtained from its primary independent pricing service to the prices obtained from the additional independent pricing services to determine if the price obtained from the primary independent pricing service is reasonable. The Company does not adjust the prices received from independent third-party pricing services unless such prices are inconsistent with the definition of fair value and result in a material difference in the recorded amounts.

Fair value of other financial instruments

Descriptions of the valuation methodologies and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of other financial instruments are described below. The Company’s financial instruments not recorded at fair value but for which fair value can be approximated and disclosed include:

• Cash and cash equivalents are short-term in nature and accordingly are recorded at amounts that approximate fair value.

• Cash and investments segregated and on deposit for regulatory purposes include cash and securities purchased under resale agreements. Securities purchased under resale agreements are short-term in nature and are backed by collateral that both exceeds the carrying value of the resale agreement and is highly liquid in nature. Accordingly, the carrying values of these financial instruments approximate their fair values.

• Receivables from/payables to brokers, dealers, and clearing organizations are short-term in nature, recorded at contractual amounts and historically have been settled at those values. Accordingly, the carrying values of these financial instruments approximate their fair values.

• Receivables from/payables to brokerage clients — net are short-term in nature, recorded at contractual amounts and historically have been settled at those values. Accordingly, the carrying values of these financial instruments approximate their fair values.

• HTM securities – The fair values of HTM securities are obtained using an independent third-party pricing service similar to investment assets recorded at fair value as discussed above.

• Bank loans – The fair values of the Company’s First Mortgages and HELOCs are estimated based on prices of mortgage-backed securities collateralized by similar types of loans. PALs are non-purpose revolving lines of credit secured by eligible assets; accordingly, the carrying values of these loans approximate their fair values.

• Financial instruments included in other assets primarily consist of LIHTC investments, cost method investments, and FHLB stock, whose carrying values approximate their fair values. FHLB stock is recorded at par, which approximates its fair value.

• Bank deposits have no stated maturity and are recorded at the amount payable on demand as of the balance sheet date. The Company considers the carrying values of these deposits to approximate their fair values.

• Financial instruments included in accrued expenses and other liabilities consist of drafts payable and certain amounts due under contractual obligations, including unfunded LIHTC commitments. The carrying values of these instruments approximate their fair values.

• Short-term borrowings consist of commercial paper and funds drawn on Schwab Bank’s secured credit facility with the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco. Due to the short-term nature of these borrowings, carrying value approximates fair value.

• Long-term debt – Except for the finance lease obligation, the fair values of long-term debt are estimated using indicative, non-binding quotes from independent brokers. The Company validates indicative prices for its debt through comparison to other independent non-binding quotes. The finance lease obligation is recorded at carrying value, which approximates fair value.

• Firm commitments to extend credit – The Company extends credit to banking clients through HELOCs and PALs. The Company considers the fair value of these unused commitments to not be material because the interest rates earned on these balances are based on floating interest rates that reset monthly.

For a description of the fair value hierarchy, see Note 2 in the 2016 Form 10-K. There were no significant changes in these policies and methodologies during the first three months of 2017. The Company did not transfer any assets or liabilities between Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 during the three months ended March 31, 2017, or the year ended December 31, 2016. In addition, the Company did not adjust prices received from the primary independent third-party pricing service at March 31, 2017 or December 31, 2016.

New Accounting Standards (Policy)

3 Months Ended

Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract]

Adoption of New Accounting Standards and New Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

On January 1, 2017, the Company adopted, on a prospective basis, ASU 2016-09, “Stock Compensation – Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (Topic 718)”, which requires entities to recognize the income tax effects for the difference between generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and federal income tax treatment (i.e., excess tax benefit or deficiency) of share-based awards in the income statement when the awards vest or are settled, rather than recording such effects in additional paid-in capital. As a result, the Company’s tax expense was reduced by approximately $31 million in the first quarter of 2017. Future effects will depend on the Company’s share price, restricted stock vesting, and the volume of equity incentive options exercised. For the purpose of recognizing compensation cost associated with share-based awards, ASU 2016-09 also provides entities with an accounting policy election to account for forfeitures of awards as they occur or continue with current practice of estimating forfeitures at the grant date to determine the number of awards expected to vest and adjusting that estimate as necessary. The Company has elected to continue to follow the current practice.

New Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606),” which provides new guidance on revenue recognition. The guidance clarifies that revenue from contracts with customers should be recognized in a manner that depicts the timing of the related transfer of goods or performance of services at an amount that reflects the expected consideration. The FASB has subsequently issued several amendments to the standard, including deferral of the effective date until January 1, 2018, clarification of principal versus agent considerations, narrow scope improvements and other technical corrections. Entities may elect either full or modified retrospective transition. Full retrospective transition will require a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the earliest comparative period presented. Modified retrospective transition will require a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the reporting period in which the entity first applies the new guidance.

The Company plans to adopt the revenue recognition guidance in the first quarter of 2018. The guidance does not apply to revenue associated with financial instruments, including loans and securities that are accounted for under other U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, the Company does not expect an impact to net interest revenue. While the Company has not yet identified any changes in the timing of revenue recognition, the Company’s review is ongoing. The Company is evaluating the impact the new standard will have on the presentation of certain revenue streams (gross versus net reporting) and the capitalization of contract costs. The Company has not yet selected a transition method and continues to evaluate the impact the new guidance will have on its financial statements and earnings per common share (EPS).

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, “Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10),” which will become effective January 1, 2018. This new guidance addresses certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. The main provisions of the guidance include (i) most equity investments are to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income, except for those accounted for under the equity method or those that do not have readily determinable fair values for which a practical expedient can be elected, (ii) requires the use of an exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes, and (iii) requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial instrument on the balance sheet or in the accompanying notes. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2016-01 will have a material impact on its financial statements and EPS.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” which amends the accounting for leases by lessees and lessors. The primary change as a result of the new standard is the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases. Additional changes include accounting for lease origination and executory costs, required lessee reassessments during the lease term due to changes in circumstances and expanded lease disclosures. ASU 2016-02 will become effective January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted, and requires entities to apply the new guidance using a modified retrospective transition. Modified retrospective transition requires entities to apply the new guidance as of the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements in which the entity first applies the new standard. Certain transition reliefs are permitted if elected by the entity. The adoption of ASU 2016-02 will result in the Company recognizing a right-of-use asset and lease liability on the consolidated balance sheet based on the present value of remaining operating lease payments (see Note 14 of the Company’s 2016 Form 10-K for the undiscounted future annual minimum rental commitments for operating leases). The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have a material impact on its EPS.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” which provides new guidance for recognizing impairment of most debt instruments measured at amortized cost, including loans and HTM debt securities. The new guidance will require estimating expected credit losses (CECL) over the remaining life of an instrument or a portfolio of instruments with similar risk characteristics based on relevant information about past events, current conditions, and reasonable forecasts. The initial estimate of and the subsequent changes in CECL will be recognized as credit loss expense through current earnings and will be reflected as an allowance for credit losses offsetting the carrying value of the financial instrument(s) on the balance sheet. The new guidance also amends the OTTI model for AFS debt securities by requiring the use of an allowance, rather than directly reducing the carrying value of the security, and eliminating consideration of the length of time such security has been in an unrealized loss position as a factor in concluding whether a credit loss exists. ASU 2016-13 will become effective January 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted as of January 1, 2019. The new guidance will be applied through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the entity applies the new guidance except that a prospective transition is required for AFS debt securities for which an OTTI had been recognized before the effective date. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance on its financial statements and EPS.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-08, “Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities” which shortens the amortization period for the premium on certain callable debt securities to the earliest call date. The amendments are applicable to any purchased individual debt security with an explicit and noncontingent call feature that is callable at a fixed price on a preset date. The amendments do not impact the accounting for callable debt securities held at a discount, which will continue to be accreted to maturity. ASU 2017-08 will become effective on January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted including adoption in an interim period. The amendments will be applied on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2017-08 on its financial statements and EPS.
