Supplement dated November 11, 2009 to the
Prospectus dated February 28, 2009,
as supplemented July 1, 2009
 
This supplement provides new and additional information beyond that contained in the Prospectus and should be read in conjunction with the Prospectus.
 
The Portfolios seek to maintain a defined mix of asset classes over time by investing mainly in a combination of other Schwab Funds, mainly index funds. With respect to the portion of the Portfolios’ assets that were allocated to the large-cap segment of the stock market, the Portfolios invested in the Schwab Institutional Select S&P 500 Fund. On September 9, 2009, the Schwab Institutional Select S&P 500 Fund was reorganized into the Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund, a separate series of the Trust. Effective September 10, 2009, the Portfolios no longer invest in the Schwab Institutional Select S&P 500 Fund; instead, the portion of the Portfolios’ assets that are allocated to the large-cap segment of the stock market are invested in the Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund. The Schwab Institutional Select S&P 500 Fund and the Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund have substantially similar investment objectives and each Fund pursues its investment objective by investing primarily in stocks that are included in the S&P 500 Index.
 
Accordingly, the following changes are made to the “Asset Allocation” Sub-Section of each Portfolio’s “Strategy” Section:
 
•  The reference to the Schwab Institutional Select S&P 500 Fund as the Portfolio’s underlying fund that focuses on the large-cap segment of the stock market is deleted and replaced with the Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund.
 
Please retain this supplement for future reference

From the President
 

MERK PHOTO
 
Randall W. Merk is President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. and the funds covered in this report. He joined the firm in 2002 and has held a variety of executive positions at Schwab.

 
Dear Shareholder,
 
In the past year, volatile prices throughout the global financial marketplace and a recessionary economy have been among the numerous challenges affecting investment conditions and investor sentiment. While portfolios may still be below peak values reached in 2007, many have recovered substantially from lows touched as markets dropped in 2008 and early 2009. In particular, prices of many equity and fixed income securities declined precipitously toward the end of 2008 and the beginning of 2009. Since March of 2009, however, improvements in the financial markets and diminished concern over the depth and duration of the economic recession led to a broad-market recovery, with the prices of many equity securities rebounding from earlier lows.
 
During the reporting period, we made a number of improvements to the Schwab Funds family of mutual funds making it cheaper and easier for our clients to invest in Schwab Funds. On May 5, 2009, we lowered expenses on Schwab Equity Index Funds and consolidated share classes for Schwab equity and bond funds. Each Schwab equity and bond fund now offers one low fund expense to investors regardless of how much they invest, with a low $100 minimum investment. Our goal is to make investing easier and more affordable for our clients and the advisors who serve them.
 
For information on the investment environment and the performance of individual funds contained in this book, please see the fund managers’ discussion and analysis in the following pages of this report.
 
If you have any questions about Schwab Funds, we are always available at 1-800-435-4000, while additional resources may be found on Schwab.com
 
Thank you for investing with us.
 
Sincerely,
 
-s- Randall W. Merk

The Investment Environment
 
 
 
Investment conditions in the global financial market improved markedly in the second half of the reporting period, from the end of March through October, as concern over the economic recession and financial crisis ebbed. The first four months of the period, from November through February, were generally bearish; equity prices were driven down across the board as investors pulled back from the markets amidst poor macroeconomic data and pessimism over the markets’ ability to mount swift recoveries. Since March of 2009, however, both domestic and international markets experienced recovery, which helped to reduce earlier losses and produce positive 12-month returns in many cases. On the fixed income side, yields remained low on government backed securities, but leading broad market municipal and taxable bond indices were positive for the period.
 
Major economic indicators, such as Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and unemployment, continued to demonstrate that a consistent recovery has yet to materialize across many measures of the economy. GDP—the output of goods and services produced by labor and property located in the United States—rose 2.8% in the third quarter of 2009, after declining 0.7% in the prior quarter. The third quarter GDP gain was primarily attributable to increases in personal consumption expenditures, exports, private inventory investment, and government spending, according to the Bureau of Economic Analysis. The U.S. unemployment rate increased from 6.7% in November of 2008 to 10.2% in October of 2009. Sales of existing homes were a bright spot toward the end of the period, rising 9.4% in September, fueled by tax credits for new home buyers and favorable prices.
 
The returns of the S&P 500 Index, which is usually seen as a bellwether for financial markets, were positive. For the 12-month reporting period ending October 31, 2009, the S&P 500 Index returned 9.80%. In the index, Information Technology was the strongest performing sector, followed by Consumer Discretionary and Materials. Financials was the weakest sector, followed by Utilities and Industrials. In general, large-cap stocks outperformed small-cap as evidenced by the Russell 1000 Index, which returned 11.20%, compared with the Russell 2000 Index, which returned 6.46%. Looking at the broad market, growth outperformed value; the Russell 3000 Growth Index returned 17.04%, while the Russell 3000 Value Index returned 4.56%. Internationally, the MSCI EAFE Index returned 28.41%, while the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (Net)* returned 64.13%.
 
On the fixed income side, yields were low throughout the period for U.S. Treasury securities, especially those with the shortest maturities. The Barclays Capital U.S. Short Treasury: 9-12 Months returned 1.75%. The broad taxable bond market fared better, benefiting from price recovery on mortgage-backed securities and other assets that were out of favor with investors during the darkest moments of the financial crisis; the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index returned 13.79%. Returns were also positive in the tax free bond market—the Barclays Capital General Muni Bond Index returned 13.60%. The Federal Open Market Committee reaffirmed on November 4, 2009 that it would continue to hold interest rates at a target range of 0 to 0.25%.

Schwab MarketTrack All Equity Portfoliotm
 
 
The Schwab MarketTrack Portfolios incorporate a mix of different asset classes, and each invests mainly in a combination of other Schwab Funds most of which are managed using indexing strategies. Each portfolio pursues a different investment goal. Accordingly, portfolio returns over a given period will reflect a blend of returns of the underlying asset classes, and will depend on their relative weightings in each portfolio.
 
The Schwab MarketTrack All Equity Portfolio returned 13.54% during the period, compared to the benchmark All Equity Composite Index, which returned 15.72%. The portfolio focuses on long-term stock growth, while remaining close to the target allocations of 45% in large-cap, 30% in international and 25% in small-cap stocks. On a total return basis, international equity securities were strong performers during the period. In general, prices on equity securities improved markedly during the period as both the domestic and international markets improved from March 2009 through October 2009. The portfolio’s underperformance relative to the benchmark (composed of 70% Dow Jones U.S. Total Stock Market Index and 30% MSCI EAFE Index) was primarily driven by the Schwab International Index Fund, which lagged the MSCI EAFE Index. Returns for the Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund also detracted slightly from performance when compared to the Dow Jones U.S. Total Stock Market Index. The Schwab Small-Cap Index Fund added value as it outperformed the Dow Jones U.S. Total Stock Market Index.

1  The Balanced Composite Index is based on a comparable portfolio asset allocation and calculated using the following portion allocations: 45% Dow Jones U.S. Total Stock Market Index, 15% MSCI EAFE Index, 35% Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, and 5% Barclays Capital U.S. Treasury Bills: 1-3 Months Index. The index is maintained by Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc.
 
2  Portfolio expenses have been partially absorbed by CSIM and Schwab. Without these reductions, the portfolio’s returns would have been lower. These returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on portfolio distributions or the redemption of portfolio shares.
 
3  As stated in the prospectus. Includes expenses of the underlying funds in which the Portfolio invests. The annualized weighted average expense ratio of the underlying funds was 0.27%. Net Expense: Expenses reduced by a contractual fee waiver in effect for so long as CSIM serves as adviser to the fund. Gross Expense: Does not reflect the effect of contractual fee waivers. For actual ratios during the period, refer to the financial highlights section of the financial statements.
 
 
 
Schwab MarketTrack Portfolios 11


 

 
Schwab MarketTrack Conservative Portfoliotm
 
 
The Schwab MarketTrack Portfolios incorporate a mix of different asset classes, and each invests mainly in a combination of other Schwab Funds most of which are managed using indexing strategies. Each portfolio pursues a different investment goal. Accordingly, portfolio returns over a given period will reflect a blend of returns of the underlying asset classes, and will depend on their relative weightings in each portfolio.
 
The Schwab MarketTrack Conservative Portfolio returned 11.82% during the period, compared to the benchmark Conservative Composite Index, which returned 14.25%. The portfolio focuses on bond investments, but also includes equity investments, remaining close to the target allocations of 55% bonds, 40% stocks, and 5% cash. On a total return basis, international equity securities were strong performers during the period. In general, prices on equity securities improved markedly during the period as both the domestic and international markets improved from March 2009 through October 2009. The portfolio’s underperformance relative to the benchmark (composed of 30% Dow Jones U.S. Total Stock Market Index, 10% MSCI EAFE Index, 55% Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, and 5% Morningstar 3 Month T-Bill Index) was primarily driven by the Schwab International Index Fund, which lagged the MSCI EAFE Index, and the Schwab Total Bond Market Fund, which lagged the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index. Returns for the Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund also detracted slightly from performance when compared to the Dow Jones U.S. Total Stock Market Index. The Schwab Small-Cap Index Fund added value as it outperformed the Dow Jones U.S. Total Stock Market Index.

Total return for the report period presented in the table differs from the return in the Financial Highlights. The total return presented in the above table is calculated based on the NAV at which shareholder transactions were processed. The total return presented in the Financial Highlights section of the report is calculated in the same manner, but also taking into account certain adjustments that are necessary under generally accepted accounting principles required in the annual and semiannual reports.

Fund Expenses (Unaudited)
 
 Examples for a $1,000 Investment
 
As a fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: transaction costs, such as redemption fees, and ongoing costs, such as management fees, transfer agent and shareholder services fees, and other fund expenses.
 
The expense examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing cost (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare this cost with the ongoing cost of investing in other mutual funds. These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested for six-months beginning May 1, 2009 and held through October 31, 2009.
 
Actual Return lines in the table below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use this information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value ¸ $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for your fund or share class under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period”.
 
Hypothetical Return lines in the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a fund’s or share class’ actual expense ratio and an assumed return of 5% per year before expenses. Because the return used is not an actual return, it may not be used to estimate the actual ending account value or expenses you paid for the period.
 
You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
 
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only, and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as redemption fees. If these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

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

The Schwab MarketTrack Portfolios are primarily “fund of funds” as they invest a major portion of their assets in a combination of other Schwab Funds (underlying funds) to achieve their investment objectives and maintain their asset allocation. In addition, the portfolios may purchase individual securities to achieve their investment objectives. Each portfolio bears its share of the allocable expenses of the underlying funds in which they invest. Such expenses are reflected in the net asset value.
 
Schwab MarketTrack Growth Portfolio offers two share classes: Investor Shares and P Shares. Shares of each class represent interest in the same portfolio, but each class has different expenses and investment minimums. The Board of Trustees voted that effective December 10, 2009, Schwab MarketTrack All Equity Portfolio, Schwab MarketTrack Balanced Portfolio and Schwab MarketTrack Conservative Portfolio, each offer one share class: Investor class. Prior to December 10, 2009, Schwab MarketTrack Conservative Portfolio also offered P shares.
 
Shares are bought and sold (subject to a redemption fee, see Note 8) at closing net asset value (“NAV”), which is the price for all outstanding shares of a fund or share class, as applicable. Each share has a par value of 1/1,000 of a cent, and the trustees may authorize the issuance of as many shares as necessary.
 
Each fund maintains its own account for purposes of holding assets and accounting, and is considered a separate entity for tax purposes. Within its account, each fund may also keep certain assets in segregated accounts, as required by securities law.
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the funds use in the preparation of financial statements. The accounting policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. For more information about the underlying funds’ operations and policies, please refer to those funds’ semiannual and annual reports, which are filed with the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

(a) Security Valuation:
 
The funds value the securities in their portfolios every business day. The funds use the following policies to value various types of securities:
 
  •  Securities traded on an exchange or over-the-counter: valued at the closing value for the day, or, on days when no closing value has been reported, halfway between the most recent bid and asked quotes. Securities that are primarily traded on foreign exchanges are valued at the closing values of such securities on their respective exchanges with these values then translated into U.S. dollars at the valuation date exchange rate.
 
  •  Securities for which no quoted value is available or when a significant event has occurred between the time of the security’s last close and the time the fund calculates net asset value: valued at fair value, as determined in good faith by the funds’ investment adviser using guidelines adopted by the funds’ Board of Trustees and the Pricing Committee. Some of the more common reasons that may necessitate that a security be valued at fair value include: the security’s trading has been halted or suspended; the security has been delisted from a national exchange; the security’s primary pricing source is not able or willing to provide a price, or certain foreign securities’ closing market prices adjusted for changes in value that may occur between the close of foreign exchange and the time at which funds’ shares are priced. The Board of Trustees regularly reviews fair value determinations made by the funds pursuant to the procedures.
 
  •  Futures and Forwards contracts: valued at their settlement prices as of the close of their exchanges (for futures) or at a value based on that day’s exchange rates (for forwards).
 
  •  Underlying funds: valued at their respective net asset values as determined by those funds in accordance with the 1940 Act for a given day.
 
  •  Short-term securities (60 days or less to maturity): valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.
 
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures under GAAP, the fund discloses the fair value of its investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (level 3 measurements).
 
Effective June 15, 2009, the fund adopted the authoritative guidance under GAAP on determining fair value when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased and identifying transactions that are not orderly. Accordingly, if the Fund determines that either the volume and/or level of activity for an asset or liability has significantly decreased (from normal conditions for that asset or liability) or price quotations or observable inputs are not associated with orderly transactions, increased analysis and management judgment will be required to estimate fair value.
 
The guidance establishes three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:
 
  •  Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical securities. — Investments whose values are based on quoted market prices in active markets, and whose values are therefore classified as Level 1 prices, include active listed equities. The funds do not adjust the quoted price for such investments, even in situations where the funds hold a large position and a sale could reasonably impact the quoted price.
 
  •  Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) — Investments that trade in markets that are not considered to be active, but whose values are based on quoted market prices, dealer quotations or valuations provided by alternative pricing sources supported by observable inputs are classified as Level 2 prices. These generally include U.S. government and sovereign obligations, most government agency securities, investment-grade corporate bonds, certain mortgage products, less liquid listed equities, and state, municipal and provincial obligations. In addition, international securities whose markets close hours before the funds value their holdings may require revised valuations due to significant movement in the U.S. markets occurring after the daily close of the foreign markets. The Board of Trustees has approved a vendor that would calculate revised valuations of

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
  international securities based on a number of factors that appear to correlate to the movements in the U.S. markets. As investments whose values are classified as Level 2 prices include positions that are not traded in active markets and/or are subject to transfer restrictions, valuations may be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, which are generally based on available market information.
 
  •  Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the funds’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). — Investments whose values are classified as Level 3 prices have significant unobservable inputs, as they may trade infrequently or not at all. When observable prices are not available for these securities, the funds use one or more valuation techniques for which sufficient and reliable data is available. The inputs used by the funds in estimating the value of Level 3 prices may include the original transaction price, quoted prices for similar securities or assets in active markets, completed or pending third-party transactions in the underlying investment or comparable issuers, and changes in financial ratios or cash flows. Level 3 prices may also be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, with the amount of such discount estimated by the funds in the absence of market information. Assumptions used by the funds due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting fair value and therefore the funds’ results of operations.
 
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the funds’ investments as of October 31, 2009:

* The fund had no Other Financial Instruments.
(a) As categorized in Portfolio Holdings
 
(b) Portfolio Investments:
 
Derivatives: The funds may invest in futures contracts to reduce the effects of uninvested cash on performance or for other reasons. Futures contracts are instruments that represent an agreement between two parties that obligates one party to buy, and the other party to sell, specific instruments at an agreed-upon price on a stipulated future date.
 
Because futures contracts carry inherent risks, a fund must give the broker a deposit of cash and/or securities (the “Initial Margin”) whenever it enters into the futures contract. The amount of the deposit may vary from one contract to another, but it is generally a percentage of the contract amount. Subsequent payments (“Variation Margin”) are made or received by a fund depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the future contract and are accounted for as unrealized gains or losses. Futures are traded publicly on exchanges, and their market value changes daily.
 
(c) Security Transactions:
 
Security transactions are recorded as of the date the order to buy or sell the security is executed. Realized gains and losses from security transactions are based on the identified costs of the securities involved.
 
Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are reported in U.S. dollars. For assets and liabilities held on a given date, the dollar value is based on market exchange rates in effect on that date. Transactions involving foreign currencies, including purchases, sales, income receipts and expense payments, are calculated using exchange rates in effect on the transaction date. The funds do not isolate the portion of the fluctuations on investments resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rates from the fluctuations in market prices of investments held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.
 
When a fund closes out a futures or forwards position, it calculates the difference between the value of the position at the beginning and at the end of the contract, and records a realized gain or loss accordingly. A fund records the daily change in market value of futures, and also the change in the amount of margin deposit required (“due to/from broker”).
 
(d) Investment Income:
 
Interest income is recorded as it accrues. Dividends and distributions from portfolio securities and underlying funds are recorded on the date they are effective (the ex-dividend date), although the funds record certain foreign security dividends on the day they learn of the ex-dividend date. Any distributions from underlying funds are recorded in accordance with the character of the distributions as designated by the underlying funds.
 
(e) Expenses:
 
Expenses that are specific to a fund or a class within the trust are charged directly to that fund or class. Expenses that are common to all funds within the trust generally are allocated among the funds in proportion to their average daily net assets.

 Schwab MarketTrack Portfolios
 

 
Financial Notes (continued)
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
For funds offering multiple share classes, net investment income, other than class specific expenses, and realized and unrealized gains or losses, are allocated daily to each class in proportion to its average daily net assets.
 
(f) Distributions to Shareholders:
 
The funds make distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains once a year, if any, except for the MarketTrack Conservative Portfolio, which makes distributions from net investment income quarterly.
 
(g) Accounting Estimates:
 
The accounting policies described in this report conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Notwithstanding this, shareholders should understand that in order to follow these principles, fund management has to make estimates and assumptions that affect the information reported in the financial statements. It is possible that once the results are known, they may turn out to be different from these estimates.
 
(h) Federal Income Taxes:
 
The funds intend to meet federal income and excise tax requirements for regulated investment companies. Accordingly, the funds distribute substantially all of their net investment income and realized net capital gains (if any) to their respective shareholders each year except for the Schwab MarketTrack Conservative Portfolio, which typically makes distributions at the end of every calendar quarter. As long as a fund meets the tax requirements, it is not required to pay federal income tax.
 
(i) Indemnification:
 
Under the funds’ organizational documents, the officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the funds. In addition, in the normal course of business the funds enter into contracts with their vendors and others that provide general indemnifications.
 
The funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the funds. However, based on experience, the funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.
 
3. Risk factors:
 
Investing in the funds may involve certain risks, as discussed in the funds’ prospectus, including, but not limited to, those described below. These risks are associated with the underlying funds in which the funds may invest and the types of investments made by those underlying funds. The funds’ direct investments, if any, are subject to the same or similar risks.
 
Stock and bond markets rise and fall daily. As with any investment whose performance is tied to these markets, the value of your investment in the portfolios will fluctuate, which means that you could lose money.
 
The funds’ asset and stock allocations can have a substantial effect on performance. The risks and returns of different classes of assets and different segments of the stock market can vary over the long-term and the short-term. Because a fund may maintain exposure to bonds as well as stocks, the portfolio will be hurt by poor performance in either market. Also, because it does not intend to make strategic changes in its allocation, a fund’s performance may be hurt during times when segments emphasized by its target allocation are out of favor.
 
Many of the risks of the portfolios are associated with their investments in underlying stock and bond index funds. A fund’s underlying index funds seek to track the performance of various segments of the stock or bond market, as measured by their respective indices. Neither the funds, because of their asset allocation strategy, nor the underlying funds, because of their indexing strategy, take steps to reduce market exposure or to lessen the effects of a declining market. While a fund’s underlying funds seek to track the returns of various indices, in each case an underlying fund’s performance normally is below that of the index. This gap occurs mainly because, unlike an index, the underlying funds incur expenses and must keep a small portion of their assets in cash. To the extent that an underlying fund lends securities or makes short-term or other investments to reduce its

Financial Notes (continued)
 
3. Risk factors (continued):
 
performance gap, it may increase the risk that its performance will be reduced. A portfolio itself keeps a small portion of its assets in cash, which may contribute modestly to lower performance.
 
Bond prices generally fall when interest rates rise. Bonds with longer maturities tend to be more sensitive to this risk. A portfolio’s performance also could be affected if an issuer or guarantor of a bond held by the fund fails to make timely principal or interest payments or otherwise honor its obligations. Lower-quality bonds are considered speculative with respect to its issuer’s ability to make timely payments or otherwise honor its obligations. In addition, prices of lower-quality bonds tend to be more volatile than those of investment-grade bonds, and may fall based on bad news about the issuer, an industry or the overall economy. Mortgage-or asset-backed securities are subject to the risk that these bonds may be paid off earlier or later than expected. Either situation could cause the fund to hold securities paying lower than market rates of interest, which could hurt the fund’s yield or share price. Also, bonds of foreign issuers may be more volatile than those of comparable bonds from U.S. issuers, for reasons ranging from limited issuer information to the risk of political upheaval. A fund’s use of mortgage dollar rolls could cause the fund to lose money if the price of the mortgage-backed securities sold fall below the agreed upon repurchase price, or if the counterparty is unable to honor the agreement.
 
The prices of equity securities rise and fall daily. These price movements may result from factors affecting individual companies, industries or the securities market as a whole. Individual companies may report poor results or be negatively affected by industry and/or economic trends and developments. The prices of securities issued by such companies may suffer a decline in response. In addition, the equity market tends to move in cycles which may cause stock prices to fall over short or extended periods of time.
 
Historically, small-cap stocks have been riskier than large and mid-cap stocks. Stock prices of smaller companies may be based in substantial part on future expectations rather than current achievements and may move sharply, especially during market upturns and downturns. Small-cap companies themselves may be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic events than larger, more established companies. During a period when small-cap stocks fall behind other types of investments — bonds or large-cap stocks, for instance — a portfolio’s performance also may lag these investments.
 
A fund’s investments in securities of foreign issuers involve certain risks that are greater than those associated with investments in securities of U.S. issuers. These include risks of adverse changes in foreign economic, political, regulatory and other conditions, or changes in currency exchange rates or exchange control regulations (including limitations on currency movements and exchanges). In certain countries, legal remedies available to investors may be more limited than those available with respect to investments in the United States. The securities of some foreign companies may be less liquid and, at times, more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. companies. A fund may also experience more rapid or extreme changes in value as compared to a fund that invests solely in securities of U.S. companies because the securities’ markets of many foreign countries are relatively small, with a limited number of companies representing a small number of industries.
 
A fund may use derivatives (including futures) to enhance returns or hedge against market declines. A fund’s use of derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments and could cause a fund to lose more than the principal amount invested. In addition, investments in derivatives may involve leverage, which means a small percentage of assets invested in derivatives can have a disproportionately larger impact on a fund.
 
As index funds, the funds seek to track the performance of their benchmark indices, although they may not be successful in doing so. The divergence between the performance of a fund and its benchmark index, positive or negative, is called “tracking error.” Tracking error can be caused by many factors and it may be significant. For example, a fund may not invest in all of the securities in its benchmark index or may invest in securities not in the index, because the manager may use a sampling technique that is designed to balance the risk of tracking error against the negative effects of transaction costs associated with certain investments. Similarly, a fund may not invest in certain securities in its benchmark index, or match the securities’ weighting to the benchmark, due to regulatory, operational, custodial or liquidity constraints; corporate transactions; asset valuations; transaction costs and timing; tax considerations; and index rebalancing, which may result in tracking error. In addition, international funds may not invest in issuers located in certain countries due to these considerations. A fund may attempt to offset the effects of not being invested in certain index securities by making substitute investments, but these efforts

may not be successful. In addition, cash flows into and out of a fund, operating expenses and trading costs all affect the ability of the fund to match the performance of its benchmark index, because the benchmark index does not have to manage cash flows and does not incur any costs.
 
The funds do not fully replicate the benchmark indices and may hold securities not included in the indices. As a result, the funds are subject to the risk that the Adviser’s investment management strategy, the implementation of which is subject to a number of constraints, may not produce the intended results. Because the funds utilize a sampling approach they may not track the return of the indices as well as they would if each fund purchased all of the securities in their benchmark index.
 
Please refer to the funds’ prospectus for a more complete description of the principal risks of investing in the fund and the underlying funds.

Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (“Schwab”) is an affiliate of the investment adviser and was the trust’s transfer agent and shareholder services agent prior to July 1, 2009. Effective July 1, 2009, the trust has appointed Boston Financial Data Services, Inc. (“BFDS”) as transfer agent of the funds and adopted a Shareholder Servicing Plan (the “Plan”) on behalf of the funds. Pursuant to the Plan, the funds pay Schwab and other financial intermediaries to provide certain account maintenance, customer liaison and shareholder services to the funds’ shareholders holding shares of the funds through that financial intermediary. Under the Plan, Schwab is entitled to receive an annual fee payable monthly based on each funds’ average daily net assets as follows:

Although these agreements specify certain fees for these services, CSIM and Schwab have made additional agreements with the funds to limit (“expense limitation”) the total expenses charged, excluding interest, taxes and certain non-routine expenses for so long as the investment adviser serves as the adviser to the funds, which may only be amended or terminated with the approval of the Fund’s Board of Trustees as follows:

The agreement to limit the funds’ total expenses charged is limited to each fund’s direct operating expenses and, therefore, does not apply to acquired fund fees and expenses, which are indirect expenses incurred by a fund through its investments in the underlying funds.

The funds may make direct transactions with certain other Schwab Funds when practical. When one fund is seeking to sell a security that another is seeking to buy, an interfund transaction can allow both funds to benefit by reducing transaction costs. This practice is limited to funds that share the same investment adviser, trustees and officers. During the period ended October 31, 2009, each fund’s total aggregate security transactions with other Schwab Funds were as follows;

4. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions (continued):
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, the funds may enter into interfund borrowing and lending transactions within the Schwab Funds. All loans are for temporary or emergency purposes only. The interest rate charged on the loan is the average of the overnight repurchase agreement rate and the short-term bank loan rate. The interfund lending facility is subject to the oversight and periodic review of the Board of Trustees of the Schwab Funds. There was no interfund borrowing or lending activity for any fund during the period.
 
5. Board of Trustees:
 
Trustees may include people who are officers and/or directors of the investment adviser or Schwab. Federal securities law limits the percentage of such “interested persons” who may serve on a trust’s board, and the trust was in compliance with these limitations throughout the report period. The trust did not pay any of these persons for their service as trustees, but it did pay non-interested persons (independent trustees), as noted in each fund’s Statement of Operations.
 
6. Borrowing from Banks:
 
The funds may borrow money from banks and custodians. The funds have custodian overdraft facilities, a committed line of credit of $150 million with State Street Corp., an uncommitted line of credit of $100 million with Bank of America, N.A. and an uncommitted line of credit of $50 million with Brown Brothers Harriman. The funds pay interest on the amounts they borrow at rates that are negotiated periodically. The funds also pay an annual fee to State Street Corp. for the committed line of credit.
 
There were no borrowings from the lines of credit by the funds during the period. However, certain funds utilized their overdraft facility and incurred interest expense, which is disclosed in the Statement of Operations. The interest expense is determined based on a negotiated rate above the current Federal Funds Rate.
 
7. Purchases and Sales of Investment Securities:
 
For the period ended October 31, 2009, purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term obligations) were as follows:
 
                 
   
Purchases of Securities
 
Sales/Maturities of Securities

8. Redemption Fee:
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)

The primary difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation or unrealized depreciation of investments is the tax deferral of losses on wash sales.
 
Capital loss carry forwards may be used to offset future realized capital gains for federal income tax purposes. As of October 31, 2009, the following funds had capital loss carry forwards available to offset net capital gains before the expiration dates:

For tax purposes, realized net capital losses, occurring after October 31, may be deferred and treated as occurring on the first day of the following year. For the period ended, December 31, 2008, the Schwab MarketTrack All Equity Portfolio had deferred realized capital losses of $615 and did not utilize any capital losses to offset capital gains.

Distributions paid to shareholders are based on net investment income and net realized gains determined on a tax basis, which may differ from net investment income and net realized gains for financial reporting purposes. These differences are due primarily to differing treatment for items such as non-U.S. currency gains and losses, short-term capital gains and losses; capital losses related to wash sales, unrealized appreciation of certain investments in non-U.S. securities; paydowns on fixed-income securities; and income on certain investments. The fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the year in which the net investment income and net realized gains are recorded by the fund for financial reporting purposes. The fund may also designate a portion of the amount paid to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for tax purposes.

To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of:
Schwab MarketTrack All Equity Portfolio
Schwab MarketTrack Growth Portfolio
Schwab MarketTrack Balanced Portfolio
Schwab MarketTrack Conservative Portfolio
 
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio holdings, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Schwab MarketTrack All Equity Portfolio, Schwab MarketTrack Growth Portfolio, Schwab MarketTrack Balanced Portfolio, and Schwab MarketTrack Conservative Portfolio (four of the portfolios constituting Schwab Capital Trust, hereafter referred to as the “Funds”) at October 31, 2009, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the periods presented, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Funds’ management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at October 31, 2009 by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agents and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Investment Advisory Agreement Approval
 
The Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) requires that initial approval of, as well as the continuation of, a fund’s investment advisory agreement must be specifically approved (1) by the vote of the trustees or by a vote of the shareholders of the fund, and (2) by the vote of a majority of the trustees who are not parties to the investment advisory agreement or “interested persons” of any party (the “Independent Trustees”), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. In connection with such approvals, the fund’s trustees must request and evaluate, and the investment adviser is required to furnish, such information as may be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the investment advisory agreement.
 
The Board of Trustees (the “Board” or the “Trustees”, as appropriate) calls and holds one or more meetings each year that are dedicated, in whole or in part, to considering whether to renew the investment advisory agreement between Schwab Capital Trust (the “Trust”) and Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (“CSIM”) (the “Agreement”) with respect to the existing funds in the Trust, including Schwab MarketTrack All Equity Portfolio, Schwab MarketTrack Growth Portfolio, Schwab MarketTrack Balanced Portfolio and Schwab MarketTrack Conservative Portfolio (the “Funds”), and to review certain other agreements pursuant to which CSIM provides investment advisory services to certain other registered investment companies. In preparation for the meeting(s), the Board requests and reviews a wide variety of materials provided by CSIM, including information about CSIM’s affiliates, personnel and operations. The Board also receives extensive data provided by third parties. This information is in addition to the detailed information about the Funds that the Board reviews during the course of each year, including information that relates to fund operations and fund performance. The Independent Trustees receive advice from independent counsel to the Independent Trustees, including a memorandum regarding the responsibilities of trustees for the approval of investment advisory agreements. In addition, the Independent Trustees meet in executive session outside the presence of fund management and participate in question and answer sessions with representatives of CSIM.
 
The Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, considered information specifically relating to its consideration of the continuance of the Agreement with respect to the Funds at meetings held on April 27, 2009, and May 15, 2009, and approved the renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds for an additional one year term at the meeting held on May 15, 2009. The Board’s approval of the Agreement with respect to the Funds was based on consideration and evaluation of a variety of specific factors discussed at these meetings and at prior meetings, including:
 
1.  the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Funds under the Agreement, including the resources of CSIM and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds;
 
2.  each Fund’s investment performance and how it compared to that of certain other comparable mutual funds;
 
3.  each Fund’s expenses and how those expenses compared to those of certain other comparable mutual funds;
 
4.  the profitability of CSIM and its affiliates, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (“Schwab”), with respect to each Fund, including both direct and indirect benefits accruing to CSIM and its affiliates; and
 
5.  the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Funds grow and whether fee levels in the Agreement reflect those economies of scale for the benefit of Fund investors.
 
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Board considered the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by CSIM to the Funds and the resources of CSIM and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds. In this regard, the Trustees evaluated, among other things, CSIM’s personnel, experience, track record and compliance program. The Trustees also considered investments in CSIM’s mutual fund infrastructure and the fact that Schwab’s wide range of products, services, and channel alternatives such as free advice, investment and research tools, Internet access, and an array of account features that benefit the Funds and their shareholders. The Trustees also considered Schwab’s excellent reputation as a full service brokerage firm and its overall financial condition. Finally, the Trustees considered that the vast majority of the Funds’ shareholders are also brokerage clients of Schwab. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the nature, extent and quality of services provided by CSIM to the Funds and the resources of CSIM and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds.
 
Fund Performance. The Board considered Fund performance in determining whether to renew the Agreement with respect to the Funds. Specifically, the Trustees considered each Fund’s performance relative to a peer group and peer category of other mutual funds and appropriate indices/benchmarks, in light of total return, yield, if applicable, and market trends. As part of this review, the Trustees considered the composition of the peer group and peer category,
 
 
 
50 


 

selection criteria and the reputation of the third party who prepared the peer group and peer category analysis. In evaluating the performance of each Fund, the Trustees considered both risk and shareholder risk expectations for such Fund and the appropriateness of the benchmark used to compare the performance of each Fund. The Trustees further considered the level of Fund performance in the context of its review of Fund expenses and adviser profitability discussed below. Following such evaluation the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the performance of the Funds supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds.
 
Fund Expenses. With respect to the Funds’ expenses, the Trustees considered the rate of compensation called for by the Agreement, and each Fund’s net operating expense ratio, in each case, in comparison to those of other comparable mutual funds, such peer groups and comparisons having been selected and calculated by an independent third party. The Trustees considered the effects of CSIM’s and Schwab’s historical practice of voluntarily waiving management and other fees to prevent total Fund expenses from exceeding a specified cap. The Trustees also considered a commitment (i) by CSIM to reduce its contractual investment advisory fee relating to each Fund; and (ii) by CSIM and Schwab to extend the specified expense cap of each Fund for so long as CSIM serves as the adviser to such Fund. The Trustees also considered fees charged by CSIM to other mutual funds and to other types of accounts, such as wrap accounts, but, with respect to such other types of accounts, accorded less weight to such comparisons due to the different legal, regulatory, compliance and operating features of mutual funds as compared to these other types of accounts. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the expenses of the Funds are reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds.
 
Profitability. With regard to profitability, the Trustees considered the compensation flowing to CSIM and its affiliates, directly or indirectly. In this connection, the Trustees reviewed management’s profitability analyses, together with certain commentary thereon from an independent accounting firm. The Trustees also considered any other benefits derived by CSIM from its relationship with the Funds, such as whether, by virtue of its management of the Funds, CSIM obtains investment information or other research resources that aid it in providing advisory services to other clients. The Trustees considered whether the varied levels of compensation and profitability under the Agreement and other service agreements were reasonable and justified in light of the quality of all services rendered to each Fund by CSIM and its affiliates. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the profitability of CSIM is reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds.
 
Economies of Scale. The Trustees considered the existence of any economies of scale and whether those are passed along to a Fund’s shareholders through a graduated investment advisory fee schedule or other means, including any fee waivers by CSIM and its affiliates. In this regard, and consistent with their consideration of Fund expenses, the Trustees considered that CSIM and Schwab have previously committed resources to minimize the effects on shareholders of diseconomies of scale during periods when fund assets were relatively small through their contractual expense waivers. For example, such diseconomies of scale may particularly affect newer funds or funds with investment strategies that are from time to time out of favor, but shareholders may benefit from the continued availability of such funds at subsidized expense levels. The Trustees also considered CSIM’s agreement to revised contractual investment advisory fee schedules. Based on this evaluation the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the Funds obtain reasonable benefit from economies of scale.
 
In the course of their deliberations, the Trustees did not identify any particular information or factor that was all important or controlling. Based on the Trustees’ deliberation and their evaluation of the information described above, the Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, approved the continuation of the Agreement with respect to the Funds and concluded that the compensation under the Agreement with respect to the Funds is fair and reasonable in light of such services and expenses and such other matters as the Trustees have considered to be relevant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment.

Glossary
 
 
asset allocation The practice of dividing a portfolio among different asset classes, with each asset class assigned a particular percentage.
 
asset class A group of securities with similar structure and basic characteristics. Stocks, bonds and cash are the three main examples of asset classes.
 
beta A historical measure of an investment’s volatility relative to a market index (usually the S&P 500{R}). The index is defined as having a beta of 1.00. Investments with a beta higher than 1.00 have been more volatile than the index; those with a beta of less than 1.00 have been less volatile.
 
bond A security representing a loan from the investor to the issuer. A bond typically pays interest at a fixed rate (the “coupon rate”) until a specified date (the “maturity date”), at which time the issuer returns the money borrowed (“principal” or “face value”) to the bondholder. Because of their structure, bonds are sometimes called “fixed income securities” or “debt securities.”
 
An individual bond is subject to the credit risk of the issuer. Changes in interest rates can affect a bond’s market value prior to call or maturity. There is no guarantee that a bond’s yield to call or maturity will provide a positive return over the rate of inflation.
 
bond fund A bond fund is subject to the same credit, interest rate, and inflation risks as bonds. In addition, a bond fund incurs ongoing fees and expenses. A bond fund’s net asset value will fluctuate with the price of the underlying bonds and the portfolio turnover activity; return of principal is not guaranteed.
 
cap, capitalization See “market cap.”
 
capital gain, capital loss the difference between the amount paid for an investment and its value at a later time. If the investment has been sold, the capital gain or loss is considered a realized gain or loss. If the investment is still held, the gain or loss is still “on paper” and is considered unrealized.
 
earnings growth rate For a mutual fund, the average yearly rate at which the earnings of the companies in the fund’s portfolio have grown, measured over the past five years.
 
earnings per share (EPS) A company’s earnings, or net income, for the past 12 months, divided by the number of shares outstanding.
 
expense ratio The amount that is taken from a mutual fund’s assets each year to cover the fund’s operating expenses. An expense ratio of 0.50% means that a fund’s expenses amount to half of one percent of its average net assets a year.
 
market cap, market capitalization The value of a company as determined by the total value of all shares of its stock outstanding.
 
median market cap The midpoint of the range of market caps of the stocks held by a fund. There are different ways of calculating median market cap. With a simple median, half of the stocks in the fund’s portfolio would be larger than the median, and half would be smaller. With a weighted median (the type that is calculated for these funds), half of the fund’s assets are invested in stocks that are larger than the median market cap, and half in stocks that are smaller.
 
net asset value (NAV) The value of one share of a mutual fund. NAV is calculated by taking the fund’s total assets, subtracting liabilities, and dividing by the number of shares outstanding.
 
outstanding shares, shares outstanding When speaking of a company or mutual fund, indicates all shares currently held by investors.
 
price-to-book ratio (P/B)  The market price of a company’s stock compared with its “book value.” A mutual fund’s P/B is the weighted average of the P/B of all stocks in the fund’s portfolio.
 
price-to-earnings ratio (P/E)  The market price of a company’s stock compared with earnings over the past year. A mutual fund’s P/E is the weighted average of the P/E of all stocks in the fund’s portfolio.
 
return on equity (ROE) The average yearly rate of return for each dollar of investors’ money, measured over the past five years.
 
stock A share of ownership, or equity, in the issuing company.
 
total return The percentage that an investor would have earned or lost on an investment in the fund assuming dividends and distributions were reinvested.
 
weighted average For mutual funds, an average that gives the same weight to each security as the security represents in the fund’s portfolio.
 
yield The income paid out by an investment, expressed as a percentage of the investment’s market value.

From the President
 

MERK PHOTO
 
Randall W. Merk is President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. and the fund covered in this report. He joined the firm in 2002 and has held a variety of executive positions at Schwab.

 
Dear Shareholder,
 
In the past year, volatile prices throughout the global financial marketplace and a recessionary economy have been among the numerous challenges affecting investment conditions and investor sentiment. While portfolios may still be below peak values reached in 2007, many have recovered substantially from lows touched as markets dropped in 2008 and early 2009. In particular, prices of many equity and fixed income securities declined precipitously toward the end of 2008 and the beginning of 2009. Since March of 2009, however, improvements in the financial markets and diminished concern over the depth and duration of the economic recession led to a broad-market recovery, with the prices of many equity securities rebounding from earlier lows.
 
During the reporting period, we made a number of improvements to the Schwab Funds family of mutual funds making it cheaper and easier for our clients to invest in Schwab Funds. On May 5, 2009, we lowered expenses on Schwab Equity Index Funds and consolidated share classes for Schwab equity and bond funds. Each Schwab equity and bond fund now offers one low fund expense to investors regardless of how much they invest, with a low $100 minimum investment. Our goal is to make investing easier and more affordable for our clients and the advisors who serve them.
 
For information on the investment environment and the performance of individual funds contained in this book, please see the fund managers’ discussion and analysis in the following pages of this report.
 
If you have any questions about Schwab Funds, we are always available at 1-800-435-4000, while additional resources may be found on Schwab.com
 
Thank you for investing with us.
 
Sincerely,
 
-s- Randall W. Merk

The Investment Environment
 
 
 
Investment conditions in the global financial market improved markedly in the second half of the reporting period, from the end of March through October, as concern over the economic recession and financial crisis ebbed. The first four months of the period, from November through February, were generally bearish; equity prices were driven down across the board as investors pulled back from the markets amidst poor macroeconomic data and pessimism over the markets’ ability to mount swift recoveries. Since March of 2009, however, both domestic and international markets experienced recovery, which helped to reduce earlier losses and produce positive 12-month returns in many cases. On the fixed income side, yields remained low on government backed securities, but leading broad market municipal and taxable bond indices were positive for the period.
 
Major economic indicators, such as Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and unemployment, continued to demonstrate that a consistent recovery has yet to materialize across many measures of the economy. GDP—the output of goods and services produced by labor and property located in the United States—rose 2.8% in the third quarter of 2009, after declining 0.7% in the prior quarter. The third quarter GDP gain was primarily attributable to increases in personal consumption expenditures, exports, private inventory investment, and government spending, according to the Bureau of Economic Analysis. The U.S. unemployment rate increased from 6.7% in November of 2008 to 10.2% in October of 2009. Sales of existing homes were a bright spot toward the end of the period, rising 9.4% in September, fueled by tax credits for new home buyers and favorable prices.
 
The returns of the S&P 500 Index, which is usually seen as a bellwether for financial markets, were positive. For the 12-month reporting period ending October 31, 2009, the S&P 500 Index returned 9.80%. In the index, Information Technology was the strongest performing sector, followed by Consumer Discretionary and Materials. Financials was the weakest sector, followed by Utilities and Industrials. In general, large-cap stocks outperformed small-cap as evidenced by the Russell 1000 Index, which returned 11.20%, compared with the Russell 2000 Index, which returned 6.46%. Looking at the broad market, growth outperformed value; the Russell 3000 Growth Index returned 17.04%, while the Russell 3000 Value Index returned 4.56%. Internationally, the MSCI EAFE Index returned 28.41%, while the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (Net)* returned 64.13%.
 
On the fixed income side, yields were low throughout the period for U.S. Treasury securities, especially those with the shortest maturities. The Barclays Capital U.S. Short Treasury: 9-12 Months returned 1.75%. The broad taxable bond market fared better, benefiting from price recovery on mortgage-backed securities and other assets that were out of favor with investors during the darkest moments of the financial crisis; the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index returned 13.79%. Returns were also positive in the tax free bond market—the Barclays Capital General Muni Bond Index returned 13.60%. The Federal Open Market Committee reaffirmed on November 4, 2009 that it would continue to hold interest rates at a target range of 0 to 0.25%.

The Schwab Balanced Fund returned 9.45% for the period, underperforming the benchmark Balanced Blended Index, which returned 12.04%. During the period, the fixed income portion of the Schwab Balanced Fund’s portfolio experienced the largest gain on a total return basis, but underperformed relative to the benchmark. The Schwab Total Bond Market Fund returned 9.68%, underperforming the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, which returned 13.79%. Underperformance of the Schwab Total Bond Market Fund relative to its respective benchmark occurred primarily due to security selection in corporate and mortgage sectors, particularly in non-agency collateralized mortgage obligations and commercial mortgage-backed securities. The Schwab Core Equity Fund returned 8.11%, underperforming the S&P 500 Index, which returned 9.80%. Underperformance of the Schwab Core Equity Fund occurred primarily due to stock selection in Consumer Staples and Consumer Discretionary, while selection in and an overweight allocation to Industrials also hurt relative performance. In the small-cap portion of the portfolio, the Laudus Small-Cap MarketMasters Fund Select Shares returned 7.29%, outperforming the Russell 2000 Index, which returned 6.46%.

All figures on this page assume dividends and distributions were reinvested. Index figures do not include trading and management costs, which would lower performance. Indices are unmanaged, and you cannot invest in them directly. Performance results less than one year are not annualized.
 
Because the fund originally used a different asset allocation strategy and a multi-fund strategy, its performance prior to June 3, 2002 does not reflect the current strategy and may have been different if it did. From June 3, 2002 to February 28, 2008, the fund used a manager of managers strategy, and therefore its performance during this time does not reflect the fund’s current multi-fund strategy and may have been different if it did.
 
1  Fund expenses have been absorbed by CSIM and Schwab. Without these reductions, the fund’s returns would have been lower. These returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. The Balanced Blended Index is composed of 60% S&P 500® Index and 40% Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index.

3  As stated in the prospectus. Includes expenses of the underlying funds in which the fund invests. The annualized weighted average expense ratio of the underlying funds was 0.48%. Net Expense: Expenses reduced by a contractual fee waiver in effect for so long as CSIM serves as adviser to the fund. Gross Expense: Does not reflect the effect of contractual fee waivers. For actual ratios during the period, refer to the financial highlights section of the financial statements.

Fund Expenses (Unaudited)
 
 Examples for a $1,000 Investment
 
As a fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: transaction costs, such as redemption fees, and ongoing costs, such as management fees, transfer agent and shareholder services fees, and other fund expenses.
 
The expense examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing cost (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare this cost with the ongoing cost of investing in other mutual funds. These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested for six-months beginning May 1, 2009 and held through October 31, 2009.
 
Actual Return lines in the table below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use this information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value ¸ $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for your fund or share class under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period”.
 
Hypothetical Return lines in the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a fund’s or share class’ actual expense ratio and an assumed return of 5% per year before expenses. Because the return used is not an actual return, it may not be used to estimate the actual ending account value or expenses you paid for the period.
 
You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
 
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only, and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as redemption fees. If these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

The Schwab Balanced Fund is a single class “fund of funds” which seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing in a diversified group of other Schwab and/or Laudus Funds, but also may invest in other unaffiliated, third party mutual funds, including exchange traded funds (“ETFs”). In addition, the fund may purchase individual securities to maintain its allocations. The fund bears its share of allocable expenses of the underlying funds in which it invests. The financial statements of the fund should be read in conjunction with the underlying funds’ financial statements.
 
The fund offers one share class. Shares are bought and sold (subject to a redemption fee, see Note 8) at closing net asset value (“NAV”), which is the price for all outstanding shares. Each share has a par value of 1/1,000 of a cent, and the trustees may authorize the issuance of as many shares as necessary.
 
The fund maintains its own account for purposes of holding assets and accounting, and is considered a separate entity for tax purposes. Within its account, the fund may also keep certain assets in segregated accounts, as required by securities law.
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the fund used in the preparation of its financial statements. The accounting policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. For more information about the underlying funds’ operations and policies, please refer to those funds’ semiannual and annual reports, which are filed with the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
 
(a) Security Valuation:
 
The fund values the investments in underlying funds every business day. The fund uses the following policies to value various types of securities:
 
  •  Underlying funds: valued at their respective NAV as determined by the fund in accordance with the 1940 Act for a given day.
 
  •  Short-term securities (60 days or less to maturity): valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.
 
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures under GAAP, the fund discloses the fair value of its investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The

 Schwab Balanced Fund
 

 
Financial Notes (continued)
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
hierarchy gives the highest priority to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (level 3 measurements).
 
The fund adopted the authoritative guidance under GAAP on determining fair value when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased and identifying transactions that are not orderly. Accordingly, if the Fund determines that either the volume and/or level of activity for an asset or liability has significantly decreased (from normal conditions for that asset or liability) or price quotations or observable inputs are not associated with orderly transactions, increased analysis and management judgment will be required to estimate fair value.
 
The guidance establishes three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:
 
  •  Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical securities — Investments whose values are based on quoted market prices in active markets, and whose values are therefore classified as Level 1 prices, include active listed equities. The fund does not adjust the quoted price for such instruments, even in situations where the fund holds a large position and a sale could reasonably impact the quoted price.
 
  •  Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) — Investments that trade in markets that are not considered to be active, but whose values are based on quoted market prices, dealer quotations or valuations provided by alternative pricing sources supported by observable inputs are classified as Level 2 prices. These generally include certain U.S. government and sovereign obligations, most government agency securities, investment-grade corporate bonds, certain mortgage products, less liquid listed equities, and state, municipal and provincial obligations. In addition, international securities whose markets close hours before the funds value their holdings may require revised valuations due to significant movement in the U.S. markets occurring after the daily close of the foreign markets. The Board of Trustees has approved a vendor that would calculate revised valuations of international securities based on a number of factors that appear to correlate to the movements in the U.S. markets. As investments whose values are classified as Level 2 prices include positions that are not traded in active markets and/or are subject to transfer restrictions, valuations may be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, which are generally based on available market information.
 
  •  Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) — Investments whose values are classified as Level 3 prices have significant unobservable inputs, as they may trade infrequently or not at all. When observable prices are not available for these securities, the fund uses one or more valuation techniques for which sufficient and reliable data is available. The inputs used by the fund in estimating the value of Level 3 prices may include the original transaction price, quoted prices for similar securities or assets in active markets, completed or pending third-party transactions in the underlying investment or comparable issuers, and changes in financial ratios or cash flows. Level 3 prices may also be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, with the amount of such discount estimated by the fund in the absence of market information. Assumptions used by the fund due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting fair value and therefore the fund’s results of operations.
 
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the fund’s investments as of October 31, 2009:

Financial Notes (continued)
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
(b) Portfolio Investments:
 
Repurchase Agreements: The fund may enter into repurchase agreements. In a repurchase agreement, the fund buys a security from another party (usually a financial institution) with the agreement that it be sold back in the future. The date, price and other conditions are all specified when the agreement is created.
 
The fund’s repurchase agreements will be fully collateralized by U.S. government securities or U.S. government agency securities. All collateral is held by the fund’s custodian (or, with tri-party agreements, the agent’s bank) and is monitored daily to ensure that its market value is at least equal to the repurchase price under the agreement.
 
(c) Security Transactions:
 
Security transactions are recorded as of the date the order to buy or sell the security is executed. Realized gains and losses from security transactions are based on the identified costs of the securities involved.
 
(d) Investment Income:
 
Interest income is recorded as it accrues. Dividends and distributions from portfolio securities and underlying funds are recorded on the date they are effective (the ex-dividend date), although the fund records certain foreign security dividends on the day it learns of the ex-dividend date. Any distributions from underlying funds are recorded in accordance with the character of the distributions as designated by the underling funds.
 
(e) Expenses:
 
Expenses that are specific to the fund are charged directly to the fund. Expenses that are common to all funds within the trust generally are allocated among the funds in proportion to their average daily net assets.
 
(f) Distributions to Shareholders:
 
The fund makes distributions from net investment income and from any net realized capital gains once a year, if any.
 
(g) Custody Credit:
 
The fund has an arrangement with its custodian bank, State Street Corp., under which the fund receives a credit for its uninvested cash balances to offset its custody fees and accounting fees. The credit amounts (if any) are disclosed in the Statement of Operations as a reduction to the fund’s operating expenses.
 
(h) Accounting Estimates:
 
The accounting policies described in this report conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Notwithstanding this, shareholders should understand that in order to follow these principles, fund management has to make estimates and assumptions that affect the information reported in the financial statements. It’s possible that once the results are known, they may turn out to be different from these estimates.
 
(i) Federal Income Taxes:
 
The fund intends to meet federal income and excise tax requirements for regulated investment companies. Accordingly, the fund distributes substantially all of its net investment income and realized net capital gains (if any) to its respective shareholders each year. As long as the fund meets the tax requirements, it is not required to pay federal income tax.
 
(j) Indemnification:
 
Under the fund’s organizational documents, the officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the fund. In addition, in the normal course of business the fund enters into contracts with its vendors and others that provide general indemnifications. The fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the fund. However, based on experience, the fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

3. Risk Factors
 
Investing in the fund may involve certain risks as described in the prospectus including, but not limited to, those described below. These risks are associated with the underlying funds in which the fund may invest and the types of investments made by those underlying funds. The fund’s direct investments, if any, are subject to the same or similar risks.
 
The fund’s particular asset allocation can have a significant effect on performance. The fund manages its allocation with long-term performance in mind, and does not seek any particular type of performance in the short-term. Because the risks and returns of different asset classes can vary widely over any given time period, the fund’s performance could suffer if a particular asset class does not perform as expected.
 
Stock and bond markets rise and fall daily. As with any investment whose performance is tied to these markets, the value of your investment in the fund will fluctuate, which means that you could lose money.
 
The prices of equity securities rise and fall daily. These price movements may result from factors affecting individual companies, industries or the securities market as a whole. Individual companies may report poor results or be negatively affected by industry and/or economic trends and developments. The prices of securities issued by such companies may suffer a decline in response. In addition, the equity market tends to move in cycles which may cause stock prices to fall over short or extended periods of time.
 
Historically, small-cap stocks have been riskier than large and mid-cap stocks. Stock prices of smaller companies may be based in substantial part on future expectations rather than current achievements and may move sharply, especially during market upturns and downturns. Small-cap companies themselves may be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic events than larger, more established companies. During a period when small-cap stocks fall behind other type of investments — Large-Cap Stocks, for instance — a funds’ performance also will lag these investments.
 
The fund is subject to the risk that a decline in the credit quality of a portfolio investment could cause the fund’s share price to fall. Although the fund invests primarily in investment-grade securities, the fund could lose money if the issuer or guarantor of a portfolio investment fails to make timely principal or interest payments or otherwise honor its obligations. Securities rated below investment-grade (junk bond) involve greater risks of default or downgrade and are more volatile than investment-grade securities. Below investment-grade securities involve greater risk of price declines than investment-grade securities due to actual or perceived changes in an issuer’s creditworthiness. In addition, issuers of below investment-grade securities may be more susceptible than other issuers to economic downturns. Such securities are subject to the risk that the issuer may not be able to pay interest or dividends and ultimately to repay principal upon maturity. Discontinuation of these payments could substantially adversely affect the marker value of the security.
 
The fund’s investments in securities of foreign issuers involve certain risks that are greater than those associated with investments in securities of U.S. issuers. These include risks of adverse changes in foreign economic, political, regulatory and other conditions, or changes in currency exchange rates or exchange control regulations (including limitations on currency movements and exchanges). In certain countries, legal remedies available to investors may be more limited than those available with respect to investments in the United States. The securities of some foreign companies may be less liquid and, at times, more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. companies. The fund may also experience more rapid or extreme changes in value as compared to a fund that invests solely in securities of U.S. companies because the securities’ markets of many foreign countries are relatively small, with a limited number of companies representing a small number of industries.
 
Emerging market countries are countries that the World Bank or the United Nations considers to be emerging or developing. Emerging markets may be more likely to experience political turmoil or rapid changes in market or economic conditions than more developed countries. Emerging market countries often have less uniformity in accounting and reporting requirements and unreliable securities valuation. It is sometimes difficult to obtain and enforce court judgments in such countries and there is often a greater potential for nationalization and/or expropriation of assets by the government of an emerging market country. In addition, the financial stability of issuers (including governments) in emerging market countries may be more precarious than in other countries. As a result, there will tend to be an increased risk of price volatility associated with the fund’s investments in emerging market countries, which may be magnified by currency fluctuations relative to the U.S. dollar.
 
Any actively managed mutual fund is subject to the risk that its investment adviser (or sub-adviser) will make poor stock selections. An adviser applies its own investment techniques and risk analyses in making investment decisions for the fund, but
 
 
 
 17

there can be no guarantee that they will produce the desired results. In addition, the investment adviser makes investment decisions for certain of the funds using a strategy based largely on historical information. There is no guarantee that a strategy based on historical information will produce the desired results in the future. In addition, if market dynamics change, the effectiveness of this strategy may be limited.
 
The performance of the underlying funds will impact the performance of the fund. Please refer to the fund’s prospectus for a more complete description of the principal risks of investing in the fund and the underlying funds.
 
4. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (“CSIM” or “investment adviser”), a wholly owned subsidiary of The Charles Schwab Corporation, serves as the fund’s investment adviser and administrator pursuant to an Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement (“Advisory Agreement”) between it and the trust.
 
Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (“Schwab”) is an affiliate of the investment adviser and was the trust’s transfer agent and shareholder services agent. Effective July 1, 2009, the trust has appointed Boston Financial Data Services Inc. (“BFDS”) as transfer agent of the fund. Prior to July 1, 2009, BFDS served as the fund’s sub-transfer agent.
 
The underlying funds pay fees to the investment adviser for advisory and administrative services. Prior to July 1, 2009, the underlying funds paid Schwab for transfer agent and shareholder services. Effective July 1, 2009, the trust adopted a Shareholder Servicing Plan (the “Plan”) on behalf of the funds. The Plan enables, the funds to bear expenses relating to the provision by, financial intermediaries, including Schwab, of certain account maintenance, customer liaison and shareholder services to the current shareholders of the funds. The fund is not subject to any fees under the plan.
 
Effective July 1, 2009, CSIM and Schwab have made agreements with the fund to limit the total expenses charged, excluding interest, taxes and certain non-routine expenses to 0.00% for so long as CSIM serves as the investment adviser to the fund, which may only be amended or terminated with the approval of the Fund’s Board of Trustees. Prior to July 1, 2009, CSIM and Schwab had agreed to limit the total expenses charged, excluding interest, taxes, and certain non-routine expenses to 0.00% through February 27, 2011. The agreement to limit the fund’s total expenses charged is limited to the fund’s direct operating expenses and, therefore, does not apply to acquired fund fees and expenses, which are indirect expenses incurred by the fund through its investments in the underlying funds.
 
The fund may make direct transactions with certain other Schwab Funds when practical. When one fund is seeking to sell a security that another is seeking to buy, an interfund transaction can allow both funds to benefit by reducing transaction costs. This practice is limited to funds that share the same investment adviser, trustees and officers. During the period ended October 31, 2009, the fund had no security transactions with other Schwab Funds.
 
The fund may engage in certain transactions involving related parties. Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, the fund may invest in other related funds. As of October 31, 2009, the percentages of shares of other related funds owned by the Balanced Fund are:
 
         
Schwab Active Equity Funds:
       
Schwab Core Equity Fund
    2.2%

  Distributions received include distributions from net investment income and from capital gains from the underling funds.
 
Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, the fund may enter into interfund borrowing and lending transactions within the Schwab Funds. All loans are for temporary or emergency purposes only. The interest rate charged on the loan is the average of the overnight repurchase agreement rate and the short-term bank loan rate. The interfund lending facility is subject to the oversight and periodic review of the Board of Trustees of the Schwab Funds. There was no interfund borrowing or lending activity for the fund during the period.
 
5. Board of Trustees:
 
Trustees may include people who are officers and/or directors of the investment adviser or Schwab. Federal securities law limits the percentage of such “interested persons” who may serve on a trust’s board, and the trust was in compliance with these limitations throughout the report period. The trust did not pay any of these persons for their service as trustees, but it did pay non-interested persons (independent trustees), as noted in the fund’s Statement of Operations.
 
6. Borrowing from Banks:
 
The fund may borrow money from banks and custodians. The fund has custodian overdraft facilities, a committed line of credit of $150 million with State Street Corp., an uncommitted line of credit of $100 million with Bank of America, N.A. and an uncommitted line of credit of $50 million with Brown Brothers Harriman. The fund pays interest on the amounts it borrows at rates that are negotiated periodically. The funds also pay an annual fee to State Street Corp. for the committed line of credit.
 
There were no borrowings from the lines of credit by the fund during the period. However, the fund utilized its overdraft facility and incurred interest expense, which is disclosed in the Statement of Operations. The interest expense is determined based on a negotiated rate above the current Federal Funds Rate.
 
7. Purchases and Sales of Investment Securities:
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
For the period ended October 31, 2009, purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term obligations) were as follows:
 
             
Purchase of Securities
 
Sales/Maturities of Securities
 
  $16,872       $19,500  
 
8. Redemption Fee:
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
The fund charges a 2.00% redemption fee on shares sold or exchanged within 30 days of the original purchase date. Such amounts are netted against redemption proceeds on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets. The redemption fees charged during the current and prior periods are $2 and $4, respectively.

9. Federal Income Taxes:
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
As of October 31, 2009, the components of distributable earnings on a tax-basis were as follows:
 
         
Undistributed ordinary income
    $870  
Undistributed long-term capital gains
     
Unrealized appreciation
    1,700  
Unrealized depreciation
    (12,048 )
Other unrealized appreciation/(depreciation)
     
Net unrealized appreciation/(depreciation)
    ($10,348 )
 
The primary difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation or unrealized depreciation of investments is the tax deferral of losses on wash sales.
 
Capital loss carry forwards may be used to offset future realized capital gains for federal income tax purposes. As of October 31, 2009, the fund had capital loss carry forwards of $5,199 available to offset future net capital gains before October 31, 2017.
 
The tax-basis components of distributions paid during the current and prior periods were:
 
                 
 
Current Period
 
Prior Period
 
Ordinary income
    $3,133       $4,039  
Long-term capital gains
    2,727       5,564  
Return of capital
           
 
Distributions paid to shareholders are based on net investment income and net realized gains determined on a tax basis, which may differ from net investment income and net realized gains for financial reporting purposes. These differences are due primarily to differing treatment for items such as non-U.S. currency gains and losses, short-term capital gains and losses; capital losses related to wash sales, unrealized appreciation of certain investments in non-U.S. securities; and income on certain investments. The fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the year in which the net investment income and net realized gains are recorded by the fund for financial reporting purposes. The fund may also designate a portion of the amount paid to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for tax purposes.
 
The permanent book and tax basis differences may result in reclassifications between capital account and other accounts as required. The adjustments will have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. As of October 31, 2009, the fund made the following reclassfications:
 
         
Capital Shares
    $—  
Undistributed net investment income
    (1 )
Net realized capital gains and losses
    1  
 
As of October 31, 2009, management has reviewed the tax positions for open periods (for federal purposes, three years from the date of filing and for state purposes, four years from the date of filing) as applicable to the fund and has determined that no provision for income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements. The fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the period ended October 31, 2009, the fund did not incur any interest or penalties. The fund is not subject to examination by U.S. federal tax authorities for tax years before 2006 and by state tax authorities for the tax years before 2005.
 
10. Subsequent Events:
 
As of December 16, 2009, the date the financial statements were available to be issued, no subsequent events or transactions had occurred that would have materially impacted the financial statements as presented.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
 
 
To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of:
Schwab Balanced Fund
 
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio holdings, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Schwab Balanced Fund (one of the portfolios constituting Schwab Capital Trust, hereafter referred to as the “Fund”) at October 31, 2009, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Fund’s management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at October 31, 2009 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Investment Advisory Agreement Approval
 
The Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) requires that initial approval of, as well as the continuation of, a fund’s investment advisory agreement must be specifically approved (1) by the vote of the trustees or by a vote of the shareholders of the fund, and (2) by the vote of a majority of the trustees who are not parties to the investment advisory agreement or “interested persons” of any party (the “Independent Trustees”), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. In connection with such approvals, the fund’s trustees must request and evaluate, and the investment adviser is required to furnish, such information as may be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the investment advisory agreement.
 
The Board of Trustees (the “Board” or the “Trustees”, as appropriate) calls and holds one or more meetings each year that are dedicated, in whole or in part, to considering whether to renew the investment advisory agreement between Schwab Capital Trust (the “Trust”) and Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (“CSIM”) (the “Agreement”) with respect to the existing funds in the Trust, including the Schwab Balanced Fund (the “Fund”), and to review certain other agreements pursuant to which CSIM provides investment advisory services to certain other registered investment companies. In preparation for the meeting(s), the Board requests and reviews a wide variety of materials provided by CSIM, including information about CSIM’s affiliates, personnel and operations. The Board also receives extensive data provided by third parties. This information is in addition to the detailed information about the Fund that the Board reviews during the course of each year, including information that relates to fund operations and fund performance. The Independent Trustees receive advice from independent counsel to the Independent Trustees, including a memorandum regarding the responsibilities of trustees for the approval of investment advisory agreements. In addition, the Independent Trustees meet in executive session outside the presence of fund management and participate in question and answer sessions with representatives of CSIM.
 
The Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, considered information specifically relating to its consideration of the continuance of the Agreement with respect to the Fund at meetings held on April 27, 2009, and May 15, 2009, and approved the renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Fund for an additional one year term at the meeting held on May 15, 2009. The Board’s approval of the Agreement with respect to the Fund was based on consideration and evaluation of a variety of specific factors discussed at these meetings and at prior meetings, including:
 
1.  the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund under the Agreement, including the resources of CSIM and its affiliates dedicated to the Fund;
 
2.  the Fund’s investment performance and how it compared to that of certain other comparable mutual funds;
 
3.  the Fund’s expenses and how those expenses compared to those of certain other comparable mutual funds;
 
4.  the profitability of CSIM and its affiliates, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (“Schwab”), with respect to the Fund, including both direct and indirect benefits accruing to CSIM and its affiliates; and
 
5.  the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Fund grows and whether fee levels in the Agreement reflect those economies of scale for the benefit of Fund investors.
 
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Board considered the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by CSIM to the Fund and the resources of CSIM and its affiliates dedicated to the Fund. In this regard, the Trustees evaluated, among other things, CSIM’s personnel, experience, track record and compliance program. The Trustees also considered investments in CSIM’s mutual fund infrastructure and the fact that Schwab’s wide range of products, services, and channel alternatives such as free advice, investment and research tools, Internet access, and an array of account features that benefit the Fund and its shareholders. The Trustees also considered Schwab’s excellent reputation as a full service brokerage firm and its overall financial condition. Finally, the Trustees considered that many of the Fund’s shareholders are also brokerage clients of Schwab. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the nature, extent and quality of services provided by CSIM to the Fund and the resources of CSIM, and its affiliates dedicated to the Fund supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Fund.
 
Fund Performance. The Board considered Fund performance in determining whether to renew the Agreement with respect to the Fund. Specifically, the Trustees considered the Fund’s performance relative to a peer group and peer category of other mutual funds and appropriate indices/benchmarks, in light of total return, yield, if applicable, and market trends. As part of this review, the Trustees considered the composition of the peer group and peer category, selection criteria and the reputation of the third party who prepared the peer group and peer category analysis. In

evaluating the performance of the Fund, the Trustees considered both risk and shareholder risk expectations for the Fund and the appropriateness of the benchmark used to compare the performance of the Fund. The Trustees further considered the level of Fund performance in the context of its review of Fund expenses and adviser profitability discussed below. Following such evaluation the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the performance of the Fund supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Fund.
 
Fund Expenses. With respect to the Fund’s expenses, the Trustees considered the rate of compensation called for by the Agreement, and the Fund’s net operating expense ratio, in each case, in comparison to those of other comparable mutual funds, such peer groups and comparisons having been selected and calculated by an independent third party. The Trustees considered the effects of CSIM’s and Schwab’s historical practice of voluntarily waiving management and other fees to prevent total Fund expenses from exceeding a specified cap. The Trustees also considered a commitment by CSIM and Schwab to extend the specified expense cap of the Fund for so long as CSIM serves as the adviser to the Fund. The Trustees also considered fees charged by CSIM to other mutual funds and to other types of accounts, such as wrap accounts, but, with respect to such other types of accounts, accorded less weight to such comparisons due to the different legal, regulatory, compliance and operating features of mutual funds as compared to these other types of accounts. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the expenses of the Fund are reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Fund.
 
Profitability. With regard to profitability, the Trustees considered the compensation flowing to CSIM and its affiliates, directly or indirectly. In this connection, the Trustees reviewed management’s profitability analyses, together with certain commentary thereon from an independent accounting firm. The Trustees also considered any other benefits derived by CSIM from its relationship with the Fund, such as whether, by virtue of its management of the Fund, CSIM obtains investment information or other research resources that aid it in providing advisory services to other clients. The Trustees considered whether the varied levels of compensation and profitability under the Agreement and other service agreements were reasonable and justified in light of the quality of all services rendered to the Fund by CSIM and its affiliates. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the profitability of CSIM is reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Fund.
 
Economies of Scale. The Trustees considered the existence of any economies of scale and whether those are passed along to the Fund’s shareholders through a graduated investment advisory fee schedule or other means, including any fee waivers by CSIM and its affiliates. In this regard, and consistent with their consideration of Fund expenses, the Trustees considered that CSIM and Schwab have previously committed resources to minimize the effects on shareholders of diseconomies of scale during periods when fund assets were relatively small through their contractual expense waivers. For example, such diseconomies of scale may particularly affect newer funds or funds with investment strategies that are from time to time out of favor, but shareholders may benefit from the continued availability of such funds at subsidized expense levels. Based on this evaluation the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the Fund obtains reasonable benefit from economies of scale.
 
In the course of their deliberations, the Trustees did not identify any particular information or factor that was all important or controlling. Based on the Trustees’ deliberation and their evaluation of the information described above, the Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, approved the continuation of the Agreement with respect to the Fund and concluded that the compensation under the Agreement with respect to the Fund is fair and reasonable in light of such services and expenses and such other matters as the Trustees have considered to be relevant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment.

The Schwab Funds retirement policy requires that independent trustees elected after January 1, 2000 retire at age 72 or after 20 years of service as a trustee, whichever comes first. Independent trustees elected prior to January 1, 2000 will retire on the following schedule: Messrs. Stephens and Wilsey will retire on December 31, 2010.

Glossary
 
 
asset allocation The practice of dividing a portfolio among different asset classes, with each asset class assigned a particular percentage.
 
asset class A group of securities with similar structure and basic characteristics. Stocks, bonds and cash are the three main examples of asset classes.
 
beta A historical measure of an investment’s volatility relative to a market index (usually the S&P 500{R}). The index is defined as having a beta of 1.00. Investments with a beta higher than 1.00 have been more volatile than the index; those with a beta of less than 1.00 have been less volatile.
 
bond A security representing a loan from the investor to the issuer. A bond typically pays interest at a fixed rate (the “coupon rate”) until a specified date (the “maturity date”), at which time the issuer returns the money borrowed (“principal” or “face value”) to the bondholder. Because of their structure, bonds are sometimes called “fixed income securities” or “debt securities.”
 
An individual bond is subject to the credit risk of the issuer. Changes in interest rates can affect a bond’s market value prior to call or maturity. There is no guarantee that a bond’s yield to call or maturity will provide a positive return over the rate of inflation.
 
bond fund A bond fund is subject to the same credit, interest rate, and inflation risks as bonds. In addition, a bond fund incurs ongoing fees and expenses. A bond fund’s net asset value will fluctuate with the price of the underlying bonds and the portfolio turnover activity; return of principal is not guaranteed.
 
cap, capitalization See “market cap.”
 
capital gain, capital loss the difference between the amount paid for an investment and its value at a later time. If the investment has been sold, the capital gain or loss is considered a realized gain or loss. If the investment is still held, the gain or loss is still “on paper” and is considered unrealized.
 
earnings growth rate For a mutual fund, the average yearly rate at which the earnings of the companies in the fund’s portfolio have grown, measured over the past five years.
 
earnings per share (EPS) A company’s earnings, or net income, for the past 12 months, divided by the number of shares outstanding.
 
expense ratio The amount that is taken from a mutual fund’s assets each year to cover the fund’s operating expenses. An expense ratio of 0.50% means that a fund’s expenses amount to half of one percent of its average net assets a year.
 
market cap, market capitalization The value of a company as determined by the total value of all shares of its stock outstanding.
 
median market cap The midpoint of the range of market caps of the stocks held by a fund. There are different ways of calculating median market cap. With a simple median, half of the stocks in the fund’s portfolio would be larger than the median, and half would be smaller. With a weighted median (the type that is calculated for these funds), half of the fund’s assets are invested in stocks that are larger than the median market cap, and half in stocks that are smaller.
 
net asset value (NAV) The value of one share of a mutual fund. NAV is calculated by taking the fund’s total assets, subtracting liabilities, and dividing by the number of shares outstanding.
 
outstanding shares, shares outstanding When speaking of a company or mutual fund, indicates all shares currently held by investors.
 
price-to-book ratio (P/B)  The market price of a company’s stock compared with its “book value.” A mutual fund’s P/B is the weighted average of the P/B of all stocks in the fund’s portfolio.
 
price-to-earnings ratio (P/E)  The market price of a company’s stock compared with earnings over the past year. A mutual fund’s P/E is the weighted average of the P/E of all stocks in the fund’s portfolio.
 
return on equity (ROE) The average yearly rate of return for each dollar of investors’ money, measured over the past five years.
 
stock A share of ownership, or equity, in the issuing company.
 
total return The percentage that an investor would have earned or lost on an investment in the fund assuming dividends and distributions were reinvested.
 
weighted average For mutual funds, an average that gives the same weight to each security as the security represents in the fund’s portfolio.
 
yield The income paid out by an investment, expressed as a percentage of the investment’s market value.

SUPPLEMENT TO THE
SCHWAB TARGET FUNDS PROSPECTUS
Dated February 28, 2009, as Amended April 20, 2009,
As Supplemented May 13, 2009, July 1, 2009 and July 20, 2009
 
The Information Provided in this Supplement
is as of December 4, 2009
 
This supplement provides new and additional information beyond that contained in the Prospectus and should be read in conjunction with the Prospectus.
 
 
The Prospectus is being revised to reflect the following changes:
 
 
Replacement of Schwab Institutional Select S&P 500 Fund with Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund
 
 
The Schwab Institutional Select S&P 500 Fund was reorganized into the Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund. Accordingly, the Schwab Institutional Select S&P 500 Fund no longer serves as an underlying fund for the Schwab Target Funds.
 
 
•  On Page 18, under the “Asset Class, Style Class and Underlying Funds” column of the table, reference to Schwab Institutional Select S&P 500 Fund is replaced by the following:
 
Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund
 
 
•  On page 19, under the “Equity Funds — Domestic Large-Cap” section of the table describing the underlying funds, the reference to Schwab Institutional Select S&P 500 Fund and the description of its investment objective and principal investment strategy are replaced in their entirety by the following:
 
Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund
 
Seeks to track the total return of the S&P 500® Index. Under normal circumstances, the fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets in stocks that are included in the S&P 500® Index.
 
 
•  On page 23, in the section entitled “Principal Risks of the Underlying Funds,” reference to Schwab Institutional Select S&P 500 Fund is replaced by the following:
 
Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund
 
 
Replacement of Laudus Rosenberg U.S. Large Capitalization Value Fund with an Unaffiliated Large-Cap Value Fund
 
 
•  Laudus Rosenberg U.S. Large Capitalization Value Fund
 
The Laudus Rosenberg U.S. Large Capitalization Value Fund no longer serves as an underlying fund for the Schwab Target Funds. Accordingly, all references to the Laudus Rosenberg U.S. Large Capitalization Value Fund in the Prospectus are hereby deleted.
 
 
•  On Page 18, the following disclosure replaces the second and third sentences in the paragraph under the heading “The funds’ investments in underlying funds” in their entirety:
 
Included in the current universe of underlying funds are three unaffiliated funds: one within the domestic large-cap equity style class, one within the international equity style class and one within the fixed income asset category. Similar to the Schwab Funds and Laudus Funds that serve as underlying funds, the investment objectives and principal investment strategies of these unaffiliated funds are described in the “Description of underlying funds” section of the prospectus under the sub-headings “Unaffiliated Large-Cap Value Fund,” “Unaffiliated International Growth Fund” and “Unaffiliated Fixed Income Fund,” respectively.
 
 
•  On Page 18, under the “Asset Class, Style Class and Underlying Funds” column of the table, the following fund is added to the Domestic Large-Cap Asset Class:
 
Unaffiliated Large-Cap Value Fund


 

 
•  On page 19, under the “Equity Funds — Domestic Large-Cap” section of the table describing the underlying funds, the following fund and accompanying description of its investment objective and principal investment strategy are added:
 
Unaffiliated Large-Cap Value Fund
 
Seeks capital appreciation, with a secondary goal of current income. To purse this goal, the fund invests primarily in equity securities of large capitalization companies. The fund will invest (except when maintaining a temporary defensive position) at least 80% of the value of its net assets in equity securities of companies with a market capitalization of greater than $1 billion at the time of purchase. The fund will invest mostly in companies the portfolio managers believe are “value” companies. The portfolio management team seeks companies that they believe are neglected or out of favor and whose stock prices are low in relation to current earnings, cash flow, book value and sales and those companies that it believes have reasonable prospects for growth even though the expectations for these companies are low and their valuations are temporarily depressed.
 
 
•  On page 23, in the section entitled “Principal Risks of the Underlying Funds,” the following changes are made:
 
Unaffiliated Large-Cap Value Fund is added to the principal risk table and the following risks apply to the fund:
 
 
Investment risk, Market risk, Market segment risk, Management risk, Equity risk, Large-cap and mid-cap risk, “Value” investing risk and Securities lending risk.
 
Please retain this supplement for future reference

Indices are unmanaged, and you cannot invest in them directly. Performance results for less than one year are not annualized.
 
Fund expenses may have been partially absorbed by CSIM and Schwab. Without these reductions, the fund’s returns would have been lower. These returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares.

From the President
 

MERK PHOTO
 
Randall W. Merk is President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. and the funds covered in this report. He joined the firm in 2002 and has held a variety of executive positions at Schwab.

 
Dear Shareholder,
 
In the past year, volatile prices throughout the global financial marketplace and a recessionary economy have been among the numerous challenges affecting investment conditions and investor sentiment. While portfolios may still be below peak values reached in 2007, many have recovered substantially from lows touched as markets dropped in 2008 and early 2009. In particular, prices of many equity and fixed income securities declined precipitously toward the end of 2008 and the beginning of 2009. Since March of 2009, however, improvements in the financial markets and diminished concern over the depth and duration of the economic recession led to a broad-market recovery, with the prices of many equity securities rebounding from earlier lows.
 
During the reporting period, we made a number of enhancements to the Schwab Target Funds by reducing expenses and expanding the universe of underlying funds.
 
  •  Net Operating Expenses were reduced for each fund
 
  •  Increased allocation to fixed income in and near retirement
 
  •  Passive index funds were added to the universe of underlying funds
     Passive index funds carry lower management fees
 
  •  Third-party funds were added to the universe of underlying funds
     Funds managed by independent third-party investment advisers increase the depth and breadth of investment styles and disciplines
 
These enhancements are intended to help our clients continue to invest in varying market conditions. We hope that each and every client feels more comfortable planning for the future knowing that we are constantly working to make investing easier and more affordable.
 
For information on the investment environment and the performance of individual funds contained in this book, please see the fund managers’ discussion and analysis in the following pages of this report.
 
If you have any questions about Schwab Funds, we are always available at 1-800-435-4000, while additional resources may be found on Schwab.com
 
Thank you for investing with us.
 
Sincerely,
 
-s- Randall W. Merk

The Investment Environment
 
 
 
Investment conditions in the global financial market improved markedly in the second half of the reporting period, from the end of March through October, as concern over the economic recession and financial crisis ebbed. The first four months of the period, from November through February, were generally bearish; equity prices were driven down across the board as investors pulled back from the markets amidst poor macroeconomic data and pessimism over the markets’ ability to mount swift recoveries. Since March of 2009, however, both domestic and international markets experienced recovery, which helped to reduce earlier losses and produce positive 12-month returns in many cases. On the fixed income side, yields remained low on government backed securities, but leading broad market municipal and taxable bond indices were positive for the period.
 
Major economic indicators, such as Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and unemployment, continued to demonstrate that a consistent recovery has yet to materialize across many measures of the economy. GDP—the output of goods and services produced by labor and property located in the United States—rose 2.8% in the third quarter of 2009, after declining 0.7% in the prior quarter. The third quarter GDP gain was primarily attributable to increases in personal consumption expenditures, exports, private inventory investment, and government spending, according to the Bureau of Economic Analysis. The U.S. unemployment rate increased from 6.7% in November of 2008 to 10.2% in October of 2009. Sales of existing homes were a bright spot toward the end of the period, rising 9.4% in September, fueled by tax credits for new home buyers and favorable prices.
 
The returns of the S&P 500 Index, which is usually seen as a bellwether for financial markets, were positive. For the 12-month reporting period ending October 31, 2009, the S&P 500 Index returned 9.80%. In the index, Information Technology was the strongest performing sector, followed by Consumer Discretionary and Materials. Financials was the weakest sector, followed by Utilities and Industrials. In general, large-cap stocks outperformed small-cap as evidenced by the Russell 1000 Index, which returned 11.20%, compared with the Russell 2000 Index, which returned 6.46%. Looking at the broad market, growth outperformed value; the Russell 3000 Growth Index returned 17.04%, while the Russell 3000 Value Index returned 4.56%. Internationally, the MSCI EAFE Index returned 28.41%, while the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (Net)* returned 64.13%.
 
On the fixed income side, yields were low throughout the period for U.S. Treasury securities, especially those with the shortest maturities. The Barclays Capital U.S. Short Treasury: 9-12 Months returned 1.75%. The broad taxable bond market fared better, benefiting from price recovery on mortgage-backed securities and other assets that were out of favor with investors during the darkest moments of the financial crisis; the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index returned 13.79%. Returns were also positive in the tax free bond market—the Barclays Capital General Muni Bond Index returned 13.60%. The Federal Open Market Committee reaffirmed on November 4, 2009 that it would continue to hold interest rates at a target range of 0 to 0.25%.

Schwab Target 2010 Fund
 
 
The Schwab Target Funds (the funds) invest in a combination of other Schwab Funds, Laudus Funds and unaffiliated, third-party mutual funds (the underlying funds).* These underlying funds include stock, bond, and money market mutual funds and are used by the funds to meet their various target asset allocations and investment styles. Performance of the funds thus reflects a blend of the results of their underlying funds. The target asset allocation will be adjusted annually based on the adviser’s asset allocation strategy. In general, each Target fund’s allocation to equity securities will decrease and its allocation to fixed income securities will increase as the fund approaches its target retirement date.
 
The Schwab Target 2010 Fund (the fund) returned 12.24% for the period, underperforming the benchmark Target 2010 Composite Index, which returned 15.44%. The fund’s target allocations at the start of the period were 54% equity securities, 40% fixed income securities, and 6% money market funds; as of April 20, 2009, the allocations were modified to 43% equity securities, 50% fixed income securities, and 7% money market funds.
 
Over the reporting period, domestic and international fixed income securities were strong performers. International equity and growth style equity securities performed even better. Equity securities, in particular, rallied as both the domestic and international markets improved beginning March 2009 through the end of the period. Relative to the benchmark, the fund’s underperformance was primarily attributable to both asset allocation and security selection. Within the fund’s fixed income component, the Schwab Total Bond Market Fund and the Schwab Short-Term Bond Market Fund detracted from performance, as returns in these holdings were weaker than the overall gains experienced by the market. Looking at the fund’s U.S. equity components, the Schwab Core Equity Fund and the Laudus Rosenberg U.S. Large Cap Value Fund detracted from performance, as returns in these holdings lagged the overall lift in equity prices during the period. The fund’s allocation and selection in international equity securities generally benefitted the fund, but the effect was not enough to offset the lower returns of other holdings.

The fund’s target allocations at the beginning of the period were 69% equity securities, 29% fixed income securities, and 2% money market funds; as of April 20, 2009, the allocations were modified to 75% equity securities, 23% fixed income securities, and 2% money market funds.
 
Over the reporting period, domestic and international fixed income securities were strong performers. International equity and growth style equity securities performed even better. Equity securities, in particular, rallied as both the domestic and international markets improved beginning March 2009 through the end of the period. Relative to the benchmark, the fund’s underweight to domestic fixed income helped performance, as these securities underperformed international equity and growth style stocks. As a corollary, the fund’s allocation to international securities and domestic growth style securities improved relative performance. From a security selection standpoint, the Laudus International MarketMasters Fund and the Laudus Rosenberg U.S. Large Cap Growth Fund helped relative performance. The Schwab Total Bond Market Fund and the Schwab Core Equity Fund, among others, generally detracted from performance.

Schwab Target 2030 Fund
 
 
The Schwab Target Funds (the funds) invest in a combination of other Schwab Funds, Laudus Funds and unaffiliated, third-party mutual funds (the underlying funds).* These underlying funds include stock, bond, and money market mutual funds and are used by the funds to meet their various target asset allocations and investment styles. Performance of the funds thus reflects a blend of the results of their underlying funds. The target asset allocation will be adjusted annually based on the adviser’s asset allocation strategy. In general, each Target fund’s allocation to equity securities will decrease and its allocation to fixed income securities will increase as the fund approaches its target retirement date.
 
The Schwab Target 2030 Fund (the fund) returned 17.31% for the period, while the benchmark Target 2030 Composite Index returned 16.81%. The fund’s target allocations at the beginning of the period were 72% equity securities, 26% fixed income securities, and 2% money market funds; as of April 20, 2009, the allocations were modified to 82% equity securities, 16% fixed income securities, and 2% money market funds.
 
Over the reporting period, domestic and international fixed income securities were strong performers. International equity and growth style equity securities performed even better. Equity securities, in particular, rallied as both the domestic and international markets improved beginning March 2009 through the end of the period. Relative to the benchmark, the fund’s underweight to domestic fixed income helped performance, as these securities underperformed international equity and growth style stocks. As a corollary, the fund’s allocation to international securities and domestic growth style securities improved relative performance. From a security selection standpoint, the Laudus International MarketMasters Fund and the Laudus Rosenberg U.S. Large Cap Growth Fund helped relative performance. The Schwab Total Bond Market Fund and the Schwab Core Equity Fund, among others, generally detracted from performance.

Fund Expenses (Unaudited)
 
 Examples for a $1,000 Investment
 
As a fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: transaction costs, such as redemption fees, and ongoing costs, such as management fees, transfer agent and shareholder services fees, and other fund expenses.
 
The expense examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing cost (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare this cost with the ongoing cost of investing in other mutual funds. These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested for six-months beginning May 1, 2009 and held through October 31, 2009.
 
Actual Return lines in the table below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use this information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value ¸ $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for your fund or share class under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period”.
 
Hypothetical Return lines in the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed return of 5% per year before expenses. Because the return used is not an actual return, it may not be used to estimate the actual ending account value or expenses you paid for the period.
 
You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
 
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only, and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as redemption fees. If these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

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

The Schwab Target Funds are “fund of funds”. Each of the funds seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing in a combination of other Schwab and/or Laudus Funds and other unaffiliated, third-party mutual funds, in accordance with its target portfolio allocation. Each fund may also invest directly in equity and fixed income securities, exchange traded funds, cash equivalents, including money market securities, and futures. Each fund bears its share of the allocable expenses of the underlying funds in which they invest.
 
The funds offer one share class. Shares are bought and sold (subject to a redemption fee, see Note 8) at closing net asset value (“NAV”), which is the price for all outstanding shares of a fund or share class. Each share has a par value of 1/1,000 of a cent, and the trustees may authorize the issuance of as many shares as necessary.
 
Each fund maintains its own account for purposes of holding assets and accounting, and is considered a separate entity for tax purposes. Within its account, each fund may also keep certain assets in segregated accounts, as required by securities law.
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the funds used in the preparation of financial statements. The accounting policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. For more information about the underlying funds’ operations and policies, please refer to those funds’ semiannual and annual reports which are filed with the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
 
(a) Security Valuation:
 
The funds value the investments in underlying funds every business day. The funds use the following policies to value these investments:
 
  •  Underlying funds: valued at their respective NAV as determined by those funds, in accordance with the 1940 Act for a given day.
 
  •  Short-term securities (60 days or less to maturity): valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
 
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures under GAAP, the funds disclose the fair value of their investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (level 3 measurements).
 
The funds adopted the authoritative guidance under GAAP on determining fair value when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased and identifying transactions that are not orderly. Accordingly, if the funds determine that either the volume and/or level of activity for an asset or liability has significantly decreased (from normal conditions for that asset or liability) or price quotations or observable inputs are not associated with orderly transactions, increased analysis and management judgment will be required to estimate fair value.
 
The guidance establishes three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:
 
  •  Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical securities — Investments whose values are based on quoted market prices in active markets, and whose values are therefore classified as Level 1 prices, include active listed equities. The funds do not adjust the quoted price for such instruments, even in situations where the funds hold a large position and a sale could reasonably impact the quoted prices.
 
  •  Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) — Investments that trade in markets that are not considered to be active, but whose values are based on quoted market prices, dealer quotations or valuations provided by alternative pricing sources supported by observable inputs are classified as Level 2 prices. These generally include certain U.S. government and sovereign obligations, most government agency securities, investment-grade corporate bonds, certain mortgage products, less liquid listed equities, and state, municipal and provincial obligations. In addition, international securities whose markets close hours before the funds value their holdings may require revised valuations due to significant movement in the U.S. markets occurring after the daily close of the foreign markets. The Board of Trustees has approved a vendor that would calculate revised valuations of international securities based on a number of factors that appear to correlate to the movements in the U.S. markets. As investments whose values are classified as Level 2 prices include positions that are not traded in active markets and/or are subject to transfer restrictions, valuations may be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, which are generally based on available market information.
 
  •  Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the funds’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) — Investments whose values are classified as Level 3 prices have significant unobservable inputs, as they may trade infrequently or not at all. When observable prices are not available for these securities, the fund uses one or more valuation techniques for which sufficient and reliable data is available. The inputs used by the funds in estimating the value of Level 3 prices may include the original transaction price, quoted prices for similar securities or assets in active markets, completed or pending third-party transactions in the underlying investment or comparable issuers, and changes in financial ratios or cash flows. Level 3 prices may also be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, with the amount of such discount estimated by the funds in the absence of market information. Assumptions used by the funds due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting fair value and therefore the funds’ results of operations.

(a)
  As categorized in Portfolio Holdings
 
(b) Security Transactions:
 
Security transactions are recorded as of the date the order to buy or sell the security is executed. Realized gains and losses from security transactions are based on the identified costs of the securities involved.
 
(c) Investment Income:
 
Interest income is recorded as it accrues. Dividends and distributions from portfolio securities and underlying funds are recorded on the date they are effective (the ex-dividend date), although the funds record certain foreign security dividends on the day they learn of the ex-dividend date. Any distributions from underlying funds are recorded in accordance with the character of the distributions as designated by the underlying funds.
 
(d) Expenses:
 
Expenses that are specific to a fund are charged directly to that fund. Expenses that are common to all funds within the trust generally are allocated among the funds in proportion to their average daily net assets.
 
(e) Distributions to Shareholders:
 
The funds make distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains once a year, if any.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
(f) Accounting Estimates:
 
The accounting policies described in this report conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Notwithstanding this, shareholders should understand that in order to follow these principles, fund management has to make estimates and assumptions that affect the information reported in the financial statements. It is possible that once the results are known, they may turn out to be different from these estimates.
 
(g) Federal Income Taxes:
 
The funds intend to meet federal income and excise tax requirements for regulated investment companies. Accordingly, the funds distribute substantially all of their net investment income and realized net capital gains (if any) to their respective shareholders each year. As long as a fund meets the tax requirements, it is not required to pay federal income tax.
 
(h) Indemnification:
 
Under the funds’ organizational documents, the officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the funds. In addition, in the normal course of business the funds enter into contracts with their vendors and others that provide general indemnifications. The funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the funds. However, based on experience, the funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.
 
 
3. Risk factors:
 
Investing in the funds may involve certain risks, as discussed in the funds’ prospectus, including, but not limited to, those described below. These risks are associated with the underlying funds in which the funds may invest and the types of investments made by those underlying funds.
 
The prices of common stocks and other equity-type securities held by the funds may decline in response to certain events, including those directly involving issuers of these securities; adverse conditions affecting the general economy; overall market declines; world political, social, and economic instability; and currency fluctuations.
 
The values of, and the income generated by, most debt securities held by the funds, if any, may be affected by changing interest rates and by changes in the effective maturities and credit ratings of these securities. For example, the values of debt securities in the funds’ portfolio generally will decline when interest rates rise and increase when interest rates fall. In addition, falling interest rates may cause an issuer to redeem, “call” or refinance a security before its stated maturity, which may result in the funds having to reinvest the proceeds in lower yielding securities.
 
Investments in securities issued by entities based outside the United States may be subject to the risks described above to a greater extent and may also be affected by changes in currency exchange rates or exchange control regulations (including limitations on currency movements and exchanges). In certain countries, legal remedies available to investors may be more limited than those available with respect to investments in the United States. The securities of some foreign companies may be less liquid and, at times, more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. companies. An underlying fund with foreign investments may also experience more rapid or extreme changes in value than a fund that invests solely in securities of U.S. companies because the securities markets of many foreign countries are relatively small, with a limited number of companies representing small number of industries. There also is the risk that the cost of buying, selling, and holding foreign securities, including brokerage, tax, and custody costs may be higher than those involved in domestic transactions. Emerging markets may be more likely to experience political turmoil or rapid changes in market or economic conditions than more developed countries. Emerging market countries often have less uniformity in accounting and reporting requirements and unreliable securities valuation. It is sometimes difficult to obtain and enforce court judgments in such countries and there is often a greater potential for nationalization and/or expropriation of assets by the government of an emerging market country. In addition, the financial stability of issuers (including governments) in emerging market countries may be more precarious than in other countries. As a result, there will tend to be an increased risk of price volatility associated with an underlying fund’s investments in emerging market countries, which may be magnified by currency fluctuations relative to the U.S. dollar.

4. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions:
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (“CSIM” or the “investment adviser”), a wholly owned subsidiary of The Charles Schwab Corporation, serves as each fund’s investment adviser and administrator pursuant to an Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement (“Advisory Agreement”) between it and the trust.
 
Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (“Schwab”) is an affiliate of the investment adviser and was the trust’s transfer agent and shareholder services agent. Effective July 1, 2009, the trust has appointed Boston Financial Data Services Inc. (“BFDS”) as transfer agent of the fund. Prior to July 1, 2009, BFDS served as the fund’s sub-transfer agent.
 
The underlying funds pay fees to the investment adviser for advisory and administrative services. Prior to July 1, 2009, the underlying funds paid Schwab for transfer agent and shareholder services. Effective July 1, 2009, the trust adopted a Shareholder Servicing Plan (the “Plan”) on behalf of the funds. The Plan enables the funds to bear expenses relating to the provision by financial intermediaries, including Schwab, of certain account maintenance, customer liaison and shareholder services to the current shareholders of the funds. The funds are not subject to any fees under the plan.
 
CSIM and Schwab have made agreements with the funds to limit (“expense limitation”) the total expenses charged, excluding interest, taxes and certain non-routine expenses for so long as the investment adviser serves as the adviser to the funds, which may only be amended or terminated with the approval of the Fund’s Board of Trustees as follows:
 
Effective April 20, 2009, the expense limitation is:

The agreement to limit the funds’ total expenses charged is limited to each fund’s direct operating expenses and, therefore, does not apply to acquired fund fees and expense, which are indirect expenses incurred by a fund through its investments in the underlying funds.

4. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions (continued):
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, the funds may enter into interfund borrowing and lending transactions within the Schwab Funds. All loans are for temporary or emergency purposes only. The interest rate charged on the loan is the average of the overnight repurchase agreement rate and the short-term bank loan rate. The interfund lending facility is subject to the oversight and periodic review of the Board of Trustees of the Schwab Funds. There was no interfund borrowing or lending activity for any fund during the period.
 
5. Board of Trustees:
 
Trustees may include people who are officers and/or directors of the investment adviser or Schwab. Federal securities law limits the percentage of such “interested persons” who may serve on a trust’s board, and the trust was in compliance with these limitations throughout the report period. The trust did not pay any of these persons for their service as trustees, but it did pay non-interested persons (independent trustees), as noted in each fund’s Statement of Operations.
 
6. Borrowing from Banks:
 
The funds may borrow money from banks and custodians. The funds have custodian overdraft facilities, a committed line of credit of $150 million with State Street Corp., an uncommitted line of credit of $100 million with Bank of America, N.A. and an uncommitted line of credit of $50 million with Brown Brothers Harriman. The funds pay interest on the amounts they borrow at rates that are negotiated periodically. The funds also pay an annual fee to State Street Corp. for the committed line of credit.
 
There were no borrowings from the lines of credit by the funds during the period. However, certain funds utilized their overdraft facility and incurred interest expense, which is included in other expenses in the Statement of Operations. The interest expense is determined based on a negotiated rate above the current Federal Funds Rate.
 
7. Purchases and Sales of Investment Securities:
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
For the period ended October 31, 2009, purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term obligations) were as follows:

The primary difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation or unrealized depreciation of investments is the tax deferral of losses on wash sales. Capital loss carry forwards may be used to offset future realized capital gains for federal income tax purposes. As of October 31, 2009, the following funds had capital loss carry forwards available to offset net capital gains before the expiration dates:

Distributions paid to shareholders are based on net investment income and net realized gains determined on a tax basis, which may differ from net investment income and net realized gains for financial reporting purposes. These differences are due primarily to differing treatment for items such as non-U.S. currency gains and losses, short-term capital gains and losses; capital losses related to wash sales, unrealized appreciation of certain investments in non-U.S. securities and income on certain investments. The fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the year in which the net investment income and net realized gains are recorded by the fund for financial reporting purposes. The fund may also designate a portion of the amount paid to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for tax purposes.
 
The permanent book and tax basis differences may result in reclassifications between capital account and other accounts as required. The adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. As of October 31, 2009, the funds made the following reclassifications:

As of October 31, 2009, management has reviewed the tax positions for open periods (for federal purpose, three years from the date of filing and state purposes, four years from the date of filing), as applicable to the funds, and has determined that no provision for income tax is required in the funds’ financial statements. The funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the period ended October 31, 2009 the funds did not incur any interest or penalties. The Schwab Target 2010 Fund, Schwab Target 2020 Fund, Schwab Target 2030 Fund and Schwab Target 2040 Fund are not subject to examination by U.S. federal tax authorities for tax years before 2006 and by state tax authorities for tax years before 2005. The Schwab Target 2015 Fund, Schwab Target 2025 Fund, and Schwab Target 2035 Fund are not subject to examination by U.S. federal and state tax authorities before tax year 2008.

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio holdings, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Schwab Target 2010 Fund, Schwab Target 2015 Fund, Schwab Target 2020 Fund, Schwab Target 2025 Fund, Schwab Target 2030 Fund, Schwab Target 2035 Fund, and Schwab Target 2040 Fund (seven of the portfolios constituting Schwab Capital Trust, hereafter referred to as the “Funds”) at October 31, 2009, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets and the financial highlights for each of the periods presented, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Funds’ management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at October 31, 2009 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Investment Advisory Agreement Approval
 
The Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) requires that initial approval of, as well as the continuation of, a fund’s investment advisory agreement must be specifically approved (1) by the vote of the trustees or by a vote of the shareholders of the fund, and (2) by the vote of a majority of the trustees who are not parties to the investment advisory agreement or “interested persons” of any party (the “Independent Trustees”), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. In connection with such approvals, the fund’s trustees must request and evaluate, and the investment adviser is required to furnish, such information as may be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the investment advisory agreement.
 
The Board of Trustees (the “Board” or the “Trustees”, as appropriate) calls and holds one or more meetings each year that are dedicated, in whole or in part, to considering whether to renew the investment advisory agreement between Schwab Capital Trust (the “Trust”) and Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (“CSIM”) (the “Agreement”) with respect to the existing funds in the Trust, including Schwab Target 2010 Fund, Schwab Target 2015 Fund, Schwab Target 2020 Fund, Schwab Target 2025 Fund, Schwab Target 2030 Fund, Schwab Target 2035 Fund, and Schwab Target 2040 Fund (the “Funds”), and to review certain other agreements pursuant to which CSIM provides investment advisory services to certain other registered investment companies. In preparation for the meeting(s), the Board requests and reviews a wide variety of materials provided by CSIM, including information about CSIM’s affiliates, personnel and operations. The Board also receives extensive data provided by third parties. This information is in addition to the detailed information about the Funds that the Board reviews during the course of each year, including information that relates to fund operations and fund performance. The Independent Trustees receive advice from independent counsel to the Independent Trustees, including a memorandum regarding the responsibilities of trustees for the approval of investment advisory agreements. In addition, the Independent Trustees meet in executive session outside the presence of fund management and participate in question and answer sessions with representatives of CSIM.
 
The Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, considered information specifically relating to its consideration of the continuance of the Agreement with respect to the Funds at meetings held on April 27, 2009, and May 15, 2009, and approved the renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds for an additional one year term at the meeting held on May 15, 2009. The Board’s approval of the Agreement with respect to the Funds was based on consideration and evaluation of a variety of specific factors discussed at these meetings and at prior meetings, including:
 
1.  the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Funds under the Agreement, including the resources of CSIM and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds;
 
2.  each Fund’s investment performance and how it compared to that of certain other comparable mutual funds;
 
3.  each Fund’s expenses and how those expenses compared to those of certain other comparable mutual funds;
 
4.  the profitability of CSIM and its affiliates, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (“Schwab”), with respect to each Fund, including both direct and indirect benefits accruing to CSIM and its affiliates; and
 
5.  the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Funds grow and whether fee levels in the Agreement reflect those economies of scale for the benefit of Fund investors.
 
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Board considered the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by CSIM to the Funds and the resources of CSIM and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds. In this regard, the Trustees evaluated, among other things, CSIM’s personnel, experience, track record and compliance program. The Trustees also considered investments in CSIM’s mutual fund infrastructure and the fact that Schwab’s wide range of products, services, and channel alternatives such as free advice, investment and research tools, Internet access, and an array of account features that benefit the Funds and their shareholders. The Trustees also considered Schwab’s excellent reputation as a full service brokerage firm and its overall financial condition. Finally, the Trustees considered that the vast majority of the Funds’ shareholders are also brokerage clients of Schwab. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the nature, extent and quality of services provided by CSIM to the Funds and the resources of CSIM and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds.
 
Fund Performance. The Board considered Fund performance in determining whether to renew the Agreement. Specifically, the Trustees considered each Fund’s performance relative to a peer group and peer category of other mutual funds and appropriate indices/benchmarks, in light of total return, yield, if applicable, and market trends. As part of this review, the Trustees considered the composition of the peer group and peer category, selection criteria and the reputation
 
 
 
 75


 

of the third party who prepared the peer group and peer category analysis. In evaluating the performance of each Fund, the Trustees considered both risk and shareholder risk expectations for such Fund and the appropriateness of the benchmark used to compare the performance of each Fund. The Trustees further considered the level of Fund performance in the context of its review of Fund expenses and adviser profitability discussed below. Following such evaluation the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the performance of the Funds supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds.
 
Fund Expenses. With respect to the Funds’ expenses, the Trustees considered the rate of compensation called for by the Agreement, and each Fund’s net operating expense ratio, in each case, in comparison to those of other comparable mutual funds, such peer groups and comparisons having been selected and calculated by an independent third party. The Trustees considered the effects of CSIM’s and Schwab’s historical practice of voluntarily waiving management and other fees to prevent total Fund expenses from exceeding a specified cap. The Trustees also considered a commitment by CSIM and Schwab to (i) reduce the specified expense cap of each Fund; and (ii) extend the specified expense cap of each Fund for so long as CSIM serves as the adviser to such Fund. The Trustees also considered fees charged by CSIM to other mutual funds and to other types of accounts, such as wrap accounts, but, with respect to such other types of accounts, accorded less weight to such comparisons due to the different legal, regulatory, compliance and operating features of mutual funds as compared to these other types of accounts. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the expenses of the Funds are reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds.
 
Profitability. With regard to profitability, the Trustees considered the compensation flowing to CSIM and its affiliates, directly or indirectly. In this connection, the Trustees reviewed management’s profitability analyses, together with certain commentary thereon from an independent accounting firm. The Trustees also considered any other benefits derived by CSIM from its relationship with the Funds, such as whether, by virtue of its management of the Funds, CSIM obtains investment information or other research resources that aid it in providing advisory services to other clients. The Trustees considered whether the varied levels of compensation and profitability under the Agreement and other service agreements were reasonable and justified in light of the quality of all services rendered to each Fund by CSIM and its affiliates. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the profitability of CSIM is reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds.
 
Economies of Scale. The Trustees considered the existence of any economies of scale and whether those are passed along to a Fund’s shareholders through a graduated investment advisory fee schedule or other means, including any fee waivers by CSIM and its affiliates. In this regard, and consistent with their consideration of Fund expenses, the Trustees considered that CSIM and Schwab have previously committed resources to minimize the effects on shareholders of diseconomies of scale during periods when fund assets were relatively small through their contractual expense waivers. For example, such diseconomies of scale may particularly affect newer funds or funds with investment strategies that are from time to time out of favor, but shareholders may benefit from the continued availability of such funds at subsidized expense levels. Based on this evaluation the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the Funds obtain reasonable benefit from economies of scale.
 
In the course of their deliberations, the Trustees did not identify any particular information or factor that was all important or controlling. Based on the Trustees’ deliberation and their evaluation of the information described above, the Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, approved the continuation of the Agreement with respect to the Funds and concluded that the compensation under the Agreement with respect to the Funds is fair and reasonable in light of such services and expenses and such other matters as the Trustees have considered to be relevant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment.

Glossary
 
 
asset allocation The practice of dividing a portfolio among different asset classes, with each asset class assigned a particular percentage.
 
asset class A group of securities with similar structure and basic characteristics. Stocks, bonds and cash are the three main examples of asset classes.
 
beta A historical measure of an investment’s volatility relative to a market index (usually the S&P 500{R}). The index is defined as having a beta of 1.00. Investments with a beta higher than 1.00 have been more volatile than the index; those with a beta of less than 1.00 have been less volatile.
 
bond A security representing a loan from the investor to the issuer. A bond typically pays interest at a fixed rate (the “coupon rate”) until a specified date (the “maturity date”), at which time the issuer returns the money borrowed (“principal” or “face value”) to the bondholder. Because of their structure, bonds are sometimes called “fixed income securities” or “debt securities.”
 
An individual bond is subject to the credit risk of the issuer. Changes in interest rates can affect a bond’s market value prior to call or maturity. There is no guarantee that a bond’s yield to call or maturity will provide a positive return over the rate of inflation.
 
bond fund A bond fund is subject to the same credit, interest rate, and inflation risks as bonds. In addition, a bond fund incurs ongoing fees and expenses. A bond fund’s net asset value will fluctuate with the price of the underlying bonds and the portfolio turnover activity; return of principal is not guaranteed.
 
cap, capitalization See “market cap.”
 
capital gain, capital loss the difference between the amount paid for an investment and its value at a later time. If the investment has been sold, the capital gain or loss is considered a realized gain or loss. If the investment is still held, the gain or loss is still “on paper” and is considered unrealized.
 
earnings growth rate For a mutual fund, the average yearly rate at which the earnings of the companies in the fund’s portfolio have grown, measured over the past five years.
 
earnings per share (EPS) A company’s earnings, or net income, for the past 12 months, divided by the number of shares outstanding.
 
expense ratio The amount that is taken from a mutual fund’s assets each year to cover the fund’s operating expenses. An expense ratio of 0.50% means that a fund’s expenses amount to half of one percent of its average net assets a year.
 
market cap, market capitalization The value of a company as determined by the total value of all shares of its stock outstanding.
 
median market cap The midpoint of the range of market caps of the stocks held by a fund. There are different ways of calculating median market cap. With a simple median, half of the stocks in the fund’s portfolio would be larger than the median, and half would be smaller. With a weighted median (the type that is calculated for these funds), half of the fund’s assets are invested in stocks that are larger than the median market cap, and half in stocks that are smaller.
 
net asset value (NAV) The value of one share of a mutual fund. NAV is calculated by taking the fund’s total assets, subtracting liabilities, and dividing by the number of shares outstanding.
 
outstanding shares, shares outstanding When speaking of a company or mutual fund, indicates all shares currently held by investors.
 
price-to-book ratio (P/B)  The market price of a company’s stock compared with its “book value.” A mutual fund’s P/B is the weighted average of the P/B of all stocks in the fund’s portfolio.
 
price-to-earnings ratio (P/E)  The market price of a company’s stock compared with earnings over the past year. A mutual fund’s P/E is the weighted average of the P/E of all stocks in the fund’s portfolio.
 
return on equity (ROE) The average yearly rate of return for each dollar of investors’ money, measured over the past five years.
 
stock A share of ownership, or equity, in the issuing company.
 
total return The percentage that an investor would have earned or lost on an investment in the fund assuming dividends and distributions were reinvested.
 
weighted average For mutual funds, an average that gives the same weight to each security as the security represents in the fund’s portfolio.
 
yield The income paid out by an investment, expressed as a percentage of the investment’s market value.

From the President
 

MERK PHOTO
 
Randall W. Merk is President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. and the funds covered in this report. He joined the firm in 2002 and has held a variety of executive positions at Schwab.

 
Dear Shareholder,
 
In the past year, the prices of many equity securities rebounded as investor confidence in financial markets and the economy returned. Before this rally, prices had been driven down significantly, reflected in the particularly bearish period that extended from late 2008 to early 2009, brought on by the credit crisis and economic recession. Since March of 2009, however, improvements in the financial markets and diminished concern over the depth and duration of the economic recession have encouraged a broad market recovery. International equities were particularly strong, with the MSCI EAFE Index (Gross) returning 28.41% during the reporting period (12 months ending October 31, 2009). Domestic small-cap stocks were also positive for the period, with the Russell 2000 Index returning 6.46%.
 
Within the Laudus MarketMasters fund family, absolute returns in the funds followed the general lift in prices. The Laudus International MarketMasters Fund returned around 34%, while the Laudus Small Cap MarketMasters Fund returned about 7%. For an explanation of fund performance, please see the portfolio managers’ commentary in the following pages of this report.
 
The Laudus MarketMasters Funds follow a multi-manager strategy, combining the skills and expertise of leading investment managers with Schwab’s ongoing oversight. Jeffrey Mortimer, Chief Investment Officer, Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (CSIM) and Caroline Lee, Managing Director & Portfolio Manager, CSIM oversee the investment process and work to ensure that each sub-adviser has passed a rigorous screening and selection process.
 
In closing, I would remind you that should you have any questions about the funds we are available to answer them at 1-800-447-3332.
 
Thank you for investing with us.
 
Sincerely,
 
-s- Randall W. Merk

The Investment Environment
 
 
 
Investment conditions in the global financial market improved markedly in the second half of the reporting period, from the end of March through October, as concern over the economic recession and financial crisis ebbed. The first four months of the period, from November through February, were generally bearish; equity prices were driven down across the board as investors pulled back from the markets amidst poor macroeconomic data and pessimism over the markets’ ability to mount swift recoveries. Since March of 2009, however, both domestic and international markets experienced recovery, which helped to reduce earlier losses and produce positive 12-month returns in many cases. On the fixed income side, yields remained low on government backed securities, but leading broad market municipal and taxable bond indices were positive for the period.
 
Major economic indicators, such as Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and unemployment, continued to demonstrate that a consistent recovery has yet to materialize across many measures of the economy. GDP—the output of goods and services produced by labor and property located in the United States—rose 2.8% in the third quarter of 2009, after declining 0.7% in the prior quarter. The third quarter GDP gain was primarily attributable to increases in personal consumption expenditures, exports, private inventory investment, and government spending, according to the Bureau of Economic Analysis. The U.S. unemployment rate increased from 6.7% in November of 2008 to 10.2% in October of 2009. Sales of existing homes were a bright spot toward the end of the period, rising 9.4% in September, fueled by tax credits for new home buyers and favorable prices.
 
The returns of the S&P 500 Index, which is usually seen as a bellwether for financial markets, were positive. For the 12-month reporting period ending October 31, 2009, the S&P 500 Index returned 9.80%. In the index, Information Technology was the strongest performing sector, followed by Consumer Discretionary and Materials. Financials was the weakest sector, followed by Utilities and Industrials. In general, large-cap stocks outperformed small-cap as evidenced by the Russell 1000 Index, which returned 11.20%, compared with the Russell 2000 Index, which returned 6.46%. Looking at the broad market, growth outperformed value; the Russell 3000 Growth Index returned 17.04%, while the Russell 3000 Value Index returned 4.56%. Internationally, the MSCI EAFE Index returned 28.41%, while the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (Net)* returned 64.13%.
 
On the fixed income side, yields were low throughout the period for U.S. Treasury securities, especially those with the shortest maturities. The Barclays Capital U.S. Short Treasury: 9-12 Months returned 1.75%. The broad taxable bond market fared better, benefiting from price recovery on mortgage-backed securities and other assets that were out of favor with investors during the darkest moments of the financial crisis; the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index returned 13.79%. Returns were also positive in the tax free bond market—the Barclays Capital General Muni Bond Index returned 13.60%. The Federal Open Market Committee reaffirmed on November 4, 2009 that it would continue to hold interest rates at a target range of 0 to 0.25%.

Laudus Small-Cap MarketMasters Fundtm
 
 
The Laudus MarketMasters Funds use a multi-manager strategy. Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (CSIM), the funds’ investment adviser, uses rigorous criteria to select investment managers with proven long-term track records to manage a portion of each fund’s assets. In addition to selecting the investment managers and allocating assets among them, CSIM is responsible for monitoring and coordinating the overall management of the funds. Each sub-adviser manages their respective portfolio to a benchmark that reflects their individual process and philosophy. The sub-adviser benchmarks may differ from the benchmark of the overall fund.
 
The Laudus Small-Cap MarketMasters Fund Investor Shares returned 7.10% for the period, outperforming the benchmark Russell 2000 Index, which returned 6.46%. When looking at the fund’s portfolio in aggregate relative to the benchmark, allocation generally accounted for outperformance, while stock selection generally detracted from these gains. In particular, an underweight to the poorly performing financials sector improved relative returns. In addition, an overweight to the well performing Information Technology sector helped, as did an overweight to Consumer Discretionary. However, stock selection was weaker relative to the benchmark in both of these areas. Both stock selection in and allocation to the well performing Energy sector helped returns. On a total return basis, Energy was the best performing sector, followed by Consumer Discretionary and Information Technology. Poorly performing sectors included Telecommunication Services and Financials, while Consumer Staples was also weak. When looking at price-to-earnings, security selection was the primary performance driver, particularly strong in companies with mid to low P/E ratios, where returns were strongly positive. From a market cap perspective, allocation detracted, especially among companies with market caps between $1.5 to $5 billion. However, security selection in these companies was a beneficial contributor overall, as the fund’s returns were neutral to slightly positive, whereas benchmark returns were strongly negative. Stock selection was also a positive performance contributor among companies with market caps between $750 million to $1.5 billion.
 
When looking at the Laudus Small-Cap MarketMasters Fund’s sub-advised components relative to their respective underlying benchmarks, Tocqueville Asset Management L.P. and TAMRO Capital Partners, LLC outperformed, while TCW Investment Management Company and Neuberger Berman Management, LLC underperformed.

Laudus International MarketMasters Fundtm
 
 
The Laudus MarketMasters Funds use a multi-manager strategy. Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (CSIM), the funds’ investment adviser, uses rigorous criteria to select investment managers with proven long-term track records to manage a portion of each fund’s assets. In addition to selecting the investment managers and allocating assets among them, CSIM is responsible for monitoring and coordinating the overall management of the funds. Each sub-adviser manages their respective portfolio to a benchmark that reflects their individual process and philosophy. The sub-adviser benchmarks may differ from the benchmark of the overall fund.
 
The Laudus International MarketMasters Fund Investor Shares returned 33.64% for the period, outperforming the benchmark MSCI EAFE Index (Gross), which returned 28.41%. When looking at the portfolio in aggregate relative to the benchmark, both sector allocation and security selection generally benefitted the fund, with security selection contributing the most. On a regional level, selection in Europe contributed the most, while selection in Asia & Pacific Basin also benefitted the fund. From a sector specific standpoint, the biggest contributor to relative outperformance was stock selection in Consumer Discretionary. Selection in Information Technology and Industrials were the next largest contributors. In the fund, Consumer Discretionary was the best performing sector from a total return standpoint, followed by Information Technology and Industrials. Weaker sectors included Health Care and Telecommunication Services. From a price-to-earnings perspective, security selection again accounted for outperformance. Selection was particularly good in companies with low and negative P/E ratios, as well as companies with high P/E ratios. Looking at market capitalization, most of the outperformance was attributable to allocation to companies below the $5 billion mark where performance was particularly strong.
 
When looking at the Laudus International MarketMasters Fund’s sub-advised components relative to their respective underlying benchmarks, William Blair & Company, LLC and Harris Associates LP outperformed, while Wentworth Hauser and Violich, Inc., American Century Global Investment Management, Inc., and Mondrian Investment Partners Limited underperformed.

All figures on this page assume dividends and distributions were reinvested. Index figures do not include trading and management costs, which would lower performance. Indices are unmanaged, and you cannot invest in them directly. Performance results less than one year are not annualized.
 
Because the fund originally used a multi-fund strategy, its performance prior to June 3, 2002 does not reflect the current strategy and may have been different if it did.
 
The Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe, Australasia, Far East Index (Gross) (MSCI EAFE Index®) is a free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure market equity performance in 22 developed market countries, excluding the U.S. and Canada. Investors cannot invest directly in any index and index figures do not include trading and management costs.
 
1  Fund expenses may have been partially absorbed by CSIM and Schwab. Without these reductions, the fund’s returns would have been lower. These returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares.
 
2  Source for category information: Morningstar, Inc.
 
3  As stated in the prospectus. Net Expense: Expenses reduced by a contractual fee waiver in effect for so long as CSIM serves as adviser to the fund. Gross Expense: Does not reflect the effect of contractual fee waivers. For actual ratios during the period, refer to the financial highlights section of the financial statements.
 
4  Source: Morningstar, Inc. This style assessment is the result of evaluating the fund based on a ten-factor model for value and growth characteristics. The fund’s market capitalization placement is determined by the geometric mean of its holdings’ market capitalizations. The assessment reflects the fund’s portfolio as of 10/31/09, which may have changed since then, and is not a precise indication of risk or performance—past, present, or future.

Fund Expenses (Unaudited)
 
 Examples for a $1,000 Investment
 
As a fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: transaction costs, such as redemption fees, and ongoing costs, such as management fees, transfer agent and shareholder services fees, and other fund expenses.
 
The expense examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing cost (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare this cost with the ongoing cost of investing in other mutual funds. These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested for six-months beginning May 1, 2009 and held through October 31, 2009.
 
Actual Return lines in the table below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use this information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value ¸ $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for your fund or share class under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period”.
 
Hypothetical Return lines in the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a fund’s or share class’ actual expense ratio and an assumed return of 5% per year before expenses. Because the return used is not an actual return, it may not be used to estimate the actual ending account value or expenses you paid for the period.
 
You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
 
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only, and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as redemption fees. If these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

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

Each of the Laudus MarketMasters funds offers two share classes: Investor Shares and Select Shares®. Shares of each class represent interest in the same portfolio, but each class has different expenses and investment minimums.
 
Shares are bought and sold (subject to a redemption fee, see Note 8) at closing net asset value (“NAV”), which is the price for all outstanding shares of a share class. Each share has a par value of 1/1,000 of a cent, and the trustees may authorize the issuance of as many shares as necessary.
 
Each fund maintains its own account for purposes of holding assets and accounting, and is considered a separate entity for tax purposes. Within its account, each fund may also keep certain assets in segregated accounts, as required by securities law.
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
        (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the funds used in the preparation of financial statements. The accounting policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
(a) Security Valuation:
 
The funds value the securities in their portfolios every business day. The funds use the following policies to value various types of securities:
 
  •  Securities traded on an exchange or over-the-counter: valued at the closing value for the day, or, on days when no closing value has been reported, halfway between the most recent bid and asked quotes. Securities that are primarily traded on foreign exchanges are valued at the closing values of such securities on their respective exchanges with these values then translated into U.S. dollars at the valuation date exchange rate.
 
  •  Securities for which no quoted value is available: The Board of Trustees has adopted procedures to fair value each fund’s securities when market prices are not “readily available” or are unreliable. For example, a fund may fair value a security when a security is delisted or its trading is halted or suspended; when a security’s primary pricing source is unable or unwilling to provide a price or when a security’s primary trading market is closed during regular market hours. Each fund makes fair value determinations in good faith in accordance with the fund’s valuation procedures. The Board of Trustees regularly reviews fair value determinations made by the funds pursuant to the procedures.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
  •  International Fair Valuation: The Board of Trustees has adopted procedures to fair value foreign securities that trade in markets that close prior to when the funds value their holdings. By fair valuing securities whose prices may have been affected by events occurring after the close of trading, each fund seeks to establish prices that investors might expect to realize upon the current sales of these securities. This methodology is designed to deter “arbitrage” market timers, who seek to exploit delays between the change in the value of a fund’s portfolio holdings and the net asset value of the fund’s shares, and seeks to help ensure that the prices at which the fund’s shares are purchased and redeemed are fair and do not result in dilution of shareholder interest or other harm to shareholders. When fair value pricing is used at the open or close of a reporting period, it may cause a temporary divergence between the return of a fund and that of its index or benchmark. Each fund makes fair value determinations in good faith in accordance with the fund’s valuation procedures. Due to the subjective and variable nature of fair value pricing, there can be no assurance that a fund could obtain the fair value assigned to the security upon the sale of such security. The Board of Trustees regularly reviews fair value determinations made by the funds pursuant to these procedures.
 
  •  Futures and Forwards Contracts: valued at their settlement prices as of the close of their exchanges (for futures) or at a value based on that day’s exchange rates (for forwards).
 
  •  Short-term securities (60 days or less to maturity): valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.
 
  •  Underlying funds: valued at their respective net asset values as determined by those funds in accordance with the 1940 Act for a given day.
 
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures under GAAP, the funds disclose the fair value of their investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (level 3 measurements).
 
The funds have adopted the authoritative guidance under GAAP on determining fair value when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased and identifying transactions that are not orderly. Accordingly, if the funds determine that either the volume and/or level of activity for an asset or liability has significantly decreased (from normal conditions for that asset or liability) or price quotations or observable inputs are not associated with orderly transactions, increased analysis and management judgment will be required to estimate fair value.
 
The guidance establishes three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:
 
  •  Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical securities — Investments whose values are based on quoted market prices in active markets, and whose values are therefore classified as Level 1 prices, include active listed equities. The fund does not adjust the quoted price for such instruments, even in situations where the fund holds a large position and a sale could reasonably impact the quoted price.
 
  •  Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) — Investments that trade in markets that are not considered to be active, but whose values are based on quoted market prices, dealer quotations or valuations provided by alternative pricing sources supported by observable inputs are classified as Level 2 prices. These generally include U.S. government and sovereign obligations, most government agency securities, investment-grade corporate bonds, certain mortgage products, less liquid listed equities, and state, municipal and provincial obligations. In addition, international securities whose markets close hours before the funds value their holdings may require revised valuations due to significant movement in the U.S. markets occurring after the daily close of the foreign markets. The Board of Trustees has approved a vendor that would calculate revised valuations of international securities based on a number of factors that appear to correlate to the movements in the U.S. markets. As investments whose values are classified as Level 2 prices include positions that are not traded in active markets and/or are subject to transfer restrictions, valuations may be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, which are generally based on available market information.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
  •  Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) — Investments whose values are classified as Level 3 prices have significant unobservable inputs, as they may trade infrequently or not at all. When observable prices are not available for these securities, the fund uses one or more valuation techniques for which sufficient and reliable data is available. The inputs used by the fund in estimating the value of Level 3 prices may include the original transaction price, quoted prices for similar securities or assets in active markets, completed or pending third-party transactions in the underlying investment or comparable issuers, and changes in financial ratios or cash flows. Level 3 prices may also be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, with the amount of such discount estimated by the fund in the absence of market information. Assumptions used by the fund due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting fair value and therefore the fund’s results of operations.
 
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the fund’s investments as of October 31, 2009:

All net realized and change in unrealized gains (losses) in the table above are reflected on the accompanying statement of operations. Changes in net unrealized gains (losses) for Level 3 Investments held by the fund at October 31, 2009 approximates the change in unrealized gains (losses) in the table above.
 
(b) Portfolio Investments:
 
Derivatives: The funds may invest in futures contracts to reduce the effects of uninvested cash on performance or for other reasons. Futures contracts are instruments that represent an agreement between two parties that obligates one party to buy, and the other party to sell, specific instruments at an agreed-upon price on a stipulated future date.
 
Because futures contracts carry inherent risks, a fund must give the broker a deposit of cash and/or securities (the “initial margin”) whenever it enters into the futures contract. The amount of the deposit may vary from one contract to another, but it is generally a percentage of the contract amount. Subsequent payments (“variation margin”) are made or received by a fund depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the futures contract and are accounted for as unrealized gains or losses.
 
Futures are traded publicly on exchanges, and their market value changes daily and payments are generally only made between counterparts upon completion of the agreements.
 
The Laudus International MarketMasters Fund invests in forward currency contracts in connection with the purchase and sale of portfolio securities to minimize the uncertainty of changes in future foreign currency exchange rates. “Forwards”, as they are known, are contracts to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. Forwards have similar risks as futures except that they are agreements directly between two parties. Also, forwards are not publicly traded.
 
Repurchase Agreements: The funds may enter into repurchase agreements. In a repurchase agreement, a fund buys a security from another party (usually a financial institution) with the agreement that it be sold back in the future. The date, price and other conditions are all specified when the agreement is created.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
The funds’ repurchase agreements will be fully collateralized by U.S. government securities or U.S. government agency securities. All collateral is held by the funds’ custodian (or, with tri-party agreements, the agent’s bank) and is monitored daily to ensure that its market value is at least equal to the repurchase price under the agreement.
 
(c) Security Transactions:
 
Security transactions are recorded as of the date the order to buy or sell the security is executed. Realized gains and losses from security transactions are based on the identified costs of the securities involved.
 
Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are reported in U.S. dollars. For assets and liabilities held on a given date, the dollar value is based on market exchange rates in effect on that date. Transactions involving foreign currencies, including purchases, sales, income receipts and expense payments, are calculated using exchange rates in effect on the transaction date. The funds do not isolate the portion of the fluctuations on investment resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rates from the fluctuations in market prices of investments held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.
 
Gains realized by the funds on the sale of securities in certain foreign countries may be subject to non-U.S. taxes. The funds record a liability based on unrealized gains to provide for potential non-U.S. taxes payable upon the sale of these securities.
 
When a fund closes out a futures or forward position, it calculates the difference between the value of the position at the beginning and at the end of the contract, and records a realized gain or loss accordingly. A fund records the daily change in market value of futures, and also the change in the amount of margin deposit required (“due to/from broker”).
 
(d) Investment Income:
 
Interest income is recorded as it accrues. Dividends (net of any applicable foreign withholding tax) and distributions from portfolio securities and underlying mutual funds are recorded on the date they are effective (the ex-dividend date), although the funds record certain foreign security dividends on the day they learn of the ex-dividend date.
 
(e) Expenses:
 
Expenses that are specific to a fund within the trust are charged directly to that fund. Expenses that are common to all funds within the trust generally are allocated among the funds in proportion to their average daily net assets.
 
For funds offering multiple share classes, the net investment income, other than class specific expenses, and the realized and unrealized gains or losses, were allocated daily to each class in proportion to its average daily net assets.
 
(f) Distributions to Shareholders:
 
The funds make distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains once a year, if any.
 
(g) Custody Credit:
 
Certain funds have an arrangement with their custodian bank, State Street Corp., under which the funds receive a credit for their uninvested cash balance to offset their custody fees and accounting fees. The credit amounts (if any) are disclosed in the Statement of Operations as a reduction to the funds’ operating expenses.
 
(h) Accounting Estimates:
 
The accounting policies described in this report conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Notwithstanding this, shareholders should understand that in order to follow these principles, fund management has to make estimates and assumptions that affect the information reported in the financial statements. It’s possible that once the results are known, they may turn out to be different from these estimates.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
(i) Federal Income Taxes:
 
The funds intend to meet federal income and excise tax requirements for regulated investment companies. Accordingly, the funds distribute substantially all of their net investment income and realized net capital gains (if any) to their respective shareholders each year. As long as a fund meets the tax requirements, it is not required to pay federal income tax.
 
(j) Indemnification:
 
Under the funds’ organizational documents, the officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the funds. In addition, in the normal course of business the funds enter into contracts with their vendors and others that provide general indemnifications. The funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the funds. However, based on experience, the funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.
 
3. Risk Factors:
 
Investing in the funds may involve certain risks, as discussed in the funds’ prospectus, including, but not limited to, those described below:
 
Stock and bond markets rise and fall daily. As with any investment whose performance is tied to these markets, the value of your investment in the funds will fluctuate, which means that you could lose money.
 
The prices of equity securities rise and fall daily. These price movements may result from factors affecting individual companies, industries or the securities market as a whole. Individual companies may report poor results or be negatively affected by industry and/or economic trends and developments. The prices of securities issued by such companies may suffer a decline in response. In addition, the equity market tends to move in cycles which may cause stock prices to fall over short or extended periods of time.
 
Historically, small-cap stocks have been riskier than large and mid-cap stocks. Stock prices of smaller companies may be based in substantial part on future expectations rather than current achievements and may move sharply, especially during market upturns and downturns. Small-cap companies themselves may be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic events than larger, more established companies. During a period when small-cap stocks fall behind other types of investments — bonds or large-cap stocks, for instance — a fund’s performance may also lag those investments.
 
As with all actively managed funds, the strategies of the funds’ managers — its investment adviser and investment managers — may not achieve their desired results. For example, with value stocks, the market might fail to recognize the true worth of an undervalued company, or a manager might misjudge that worth. With growth stocks, whose prices depend largely on expectations of companies’ future growth, a manager’s expectations may prove to be unfounded.
 
A fund’s investment in securities of foreign issuers involves certain risks that are greater than those associated with investments in securities of U.S. issuers. These include risks of adverse changes in foreign economic, political, regulatory and other conditions, or changes in currency exchange rates or exchange control regulations (including limitations on currency movements and exchanges). In certain countries, legal remedies available to investors may be more limited than those available with respect to investments in the United States. The securities of some foreign companies may be less liquid and, at times, more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. companies. A fund may also experience more rapid or extreme changes in value as compared to a fund that invests solely in securities of U.S. companies because the securities’ markets of many foreign countries are relatively small, with a limited number of companies representing a small number of industries.
 
Emerging market countries are countries that the World Bank or the United Nations considers to be emerging or developing. Emerging markets may be more likely to experience political turmoil or rapid changes in market or economic conditions than more developed countries. Emerging market countries often have less uniformity in accounting and reporting requirements and unreliable securities valuation. It is sometimes difficult to obtain and enforce court judgments in such countries and there is often a greater potential for nationalization and/or expropriation of assets by the government of an emerging market country. In addition, the financial stability of issuers (including governments) in emerging market countries may be more precarious than in

other countries. As a result, there will tend to be an increased risk of price volatility associated with a fund’s investment in emerging market countries, which may be magnified by currency fluctuations relative to the U.S. dollar.
 
A fund may use derivatives (including futures) to enhance returns or hedge against market declines. A fund’s use of derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments and could cause a fund to lose more than the principal amount invested. In addition, investments in derivatives may involve leverage, which means a small percentage of assets invested in derivatives can have a disproportionately larger impact on a fund.
 
Please refer to the funds’ prospectus for a complete description of the principal risks of investing in the funds.
 
4. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions:
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (“CSIM” or the “investment adviser”), a wholly owned subsidiary of The Charles Schwab Corporation, serves as each fund’s investment adviser and administrator pursuant to an Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement (“Advisory Agreement”) between it and the trust.
 
Effective July 1, 2009, for its advisory and administrative services to the following funds, the investment adviser is entitled to receive an annual fee, payable monthly based on each fund’s average daily net assets described as follows:

    1.07 %     1.25 %
 
Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (“Schwab”) is an affiliate of the investment adviser and was the trust’s transfer agent and shareholder services agent prior to July 1, 2009. Effective July 1, 2009, the trust has appointed Boston Financial Data Services, Inc. (“BFDS”) as transfer agent of the funds and adopted a Shareholder Servicing Plan (the “Plan”) on behalf of the funds. Pursuant to the Plan, the funds pay Schwab and other financial intermediaries to provide certain account maintenance, customer liaison and shareholder services to the funds’ shareholders holding shares of the funds through that financial intermediary. Under the Plan, Schwab is entitled to receive an annual fee payable monthly based on each funds’ average daily net assets as follows:

The funds may make direct transactions with certain other Schwab Funds when practical. When one fund is seeking to sell a security that another is seeking to buy, an interfund transaction can allow both funds to benefit by reducing transaction costs. This practice is limited to funds that share the same investment adviser, trustees and officers. As of October 31, 2009, each fund’s total aggregate security transactions with other Schwab Funds were as follows:
 
         
Laudus Small-Cap MarketMasters Fund
    $474  
Laudus International MarketMasters Fund
    326  
 
Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, the funds may enter into interfund borrowing and lending transactions within the Schwab Funds. All loans are for temporary or emergency purposes only. The interest rate charged on the loan is the average of the overnight repurchase agreement rate and the short-term bank loan rate. The interfund lending facility is subject to the oversight and periodic review of the Board of Trustees of the Schwab Funds. There was no interfund borrowing or lending activity for any fund during the period.
 
5. Board of Trustees:
 
Trustees may include people who are officers and/or directors of the investment adviser or Schwab. Federal securities law limits the percentage of such “interested persons” who may serve on a trust’s board, and the trust was in compliance with these limitations throughout the report period. The trust did not pay any of these persons for their service as trustees, but it did pay non-interested persons (independent trustees), as noted in each fund’s Statement of Operations.
 
6. Borrowing from Banks:
 
The funds may borrow money from banks and custodians. The funds have custodian overdraft facilities, a committed line of credit of $150 million with State Street Corp., an uncommitted line of credit of $100 million with Bank of America, N.A. and an uncommitted line of credit of $50 million with Brown Brothers Harriman. The funds pay interest on the amounts they borrow at rates that are negotiated periodically. The funds also pay an annual fee to State Street Corp. for the committed line of credit.

6. Borrowing from Banks (continued):
 
There were no borrowings from the lines of credit by the funds during the period. However, certain funds utilized their overdraft facility and incurred interest expense, which is disclosed in the Statement of Operations. The interest expense is determined based on a negotiated rate above the current Federal Funds Rate.
 
7. Purchases and Sales of Investment Securities:
        (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
For the period ended October 31, 2009, purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term obligations) were as follows:
 
                 
    Purchases of Securities     Sales/Maturities of Securities  
 
Laudus Small-Cap MarketMasters Fund
    $411,031       $392,351

    1,213,916       1,386,524  
 
8. Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
Laudus International MarketMasters Fund has adopted authoritative guidance under GAAP for “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”, which requires the fund to disclose: a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for and c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position and financial performance. The adoption of the additional disclosure requirements did not materially impact the fund’s financial statements.
 
The Laudus International MarketMasters Fund entered into forward foreign currency exchange contracts and futures contracts during the period ended October 31, 2009. The fund invests in futures contracts in order to reduce the effects of uninvested cash on performance. The fund also invests in forward currency contracts in connection with the purchase and sale of portfolio securities to minimize the uncertainty of changes in future foreign currency exchange rates.

       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
As of October 31, 2009, the components of distributable earnings on a tax-basis were as follows:
 
                 
    Laudus Small-Cap
    Laudus International
 
    MarketMasters Fund     MarketMasters Fund  
 
Undistributed ordinary income
    $—       $19,246

Unrealized depreciation
    (21,985 )     (112,149 )
Other unrealized appreciation/(depreciation)
          (100 )
                 
Net unrealized appreciation/(depreciation)
    $12,799       $72,934  
                 
 
The primary difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation or unrealized depreciation of investments is Passive Foreign Investment Companies (PFIC), Real Estate Investment Trusts (REIT), Partnerships and the tax deferral of losses on wash sale.
 
Capital loss carry forwards may be used to offset future realized capital gains for federal income tax purposes. As of October 31, 2009, the following funds had capital loss carry forwards available to offset net capital gains before the expiration dates:
 
                 
    Laudus Small-Cap
    Laudus International

Total
    $155,849       $589,644  
                 
 
The tax-basis components of distributions paid during the current and prior periods were:
 
                 
    Laudus Small-Cap
  Laudus International
    MarketMasters Fund   MarketMasters Fund
 
Current period distributions
               
Ordinary income
    $431       $60,732

Ordinary income
    $2,320       $92,896  
Long-term capital gains
    $10,961       $200,687  
 
Distributions paid to shareholders are based on net investment income and net realized gains determined on a tax basis, which may differ from net investment income and net realized gains for financial reporting purposes. These differences are due primarily to differing treatment for items such as non-U.S. currency gains and losses, short-term capital gains and losses; capital losses related to wash sales, unrealized appreciation of certain investments in non-U.S. securities; and income on certain investments. The fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the year in which the net investment income and

net realized gains are recorded by the funds for financial reporting purposes. The funds may also designate a portion of the amount paid to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for tax purposes.
 
The permanent book and tax basis differences may result in reclassifications between the paid in capital account and other accounts as required. The adjustments will have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. As of October 31, 2009, the funds made the following reclassifications:
 
                 
    Laudus Small-Cap
  Laudus International
    MarketMasters Fund   MarketMasters Fund
 
Capital shares
    ($1,919 )     $9  
Undistributed net investment income

Net realized capital gains and losses
    (151 )     (12,511 )
 
As of October 31, 2009, management has reviewed the tax positions for open periods (for Federal purposes, three years from the date of filing and State purposes, four years from the date of filing) as applicable to the funds, and has determined that no provision for income tax is required in the funds’ financial statements. The funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the year ended October 31, 2009, the funds did not incur any interest or penalties. The funds are not subject to examination by U.S. federal tax authorities for tax years before 2006 and by state tax authorities for tax years before 2005.

To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of:
Laudus Small-Cap MarketMasters Fund
Laudus International MarketMasters Fund
 
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio holdings, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Laudus Small-Cap MarketMasters Fund and Laudus International MarketMasters Fund (two of the portfolios constituting Schwab Capital Trust, hereafter collectively referred to as the “Funds”) at October 31, 2009, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Funds’ management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at October 31, 2009 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Approval of Investment Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements
 
The Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) requires that initial approval of, as well as the continuation of, a fund’s investment advisory agreements must be specifically approved (1) by the vote of the trustees or by a vote of the shareholders of the fund, and (2) by the vote of a majority of the trustees who are not parties to the investment advisory agreements or “interested persons” of any party (the “Independent Trustees”), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. In connection with such approvals, the fund’s trustees must request and evaluate, and the investment adviser is required to furnish, such information as may be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the investment advisory agreements.
 
The Board of Trustees (the “Board” or the “Trustees”, as appropriate) calls and holds one or more meetings each year that are dedicated, in whole or in part, to considering whether to renew the investment advisory agreements between Schwab Capital Trust (the “Trust”) and Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (“CSIM”) with respect to the existing funds in the Trust, including Laudus Small-Cap MarketMasters Fund and Laudus International MarketMasters Fund (the “Funds”), and the individual subadvisory agreements between CSIM and Neuberger Berman Management Inc., TAMRO Capital Partners, LLC, TCW Investment Management Company and Tocqueville Asset Management L.P. relating to Laudus Small-Cap MarketMasters Fund; and CSIM and American Century Global Investment Management, Inc., Harris Associates L.P., William Blair & Company, LLC, Mondrian Investment Partners Limited and Wentworth, Hauser & Violich relating to the Laudus International MarketMasters Fund (collectively, the “Sub-Advisers”). Such investment advisory and sub-advisory agreements are collectively referred to herein as the “Agreements”. The Trustees also review certain other agreements pursuant to which CSIM provides investment advisory services to certain other registered investment companies. In preparation for the meeting(s), the Board requests and reviews a wide variety of materials provided by CSIM and the Sub-Advisers, including information about their affiliates, personnel and operations. The Board also receives extensive data provided by third parties. This information is in addition to the detailed information about the Funds that the Board reviews during the course of each year, including information that relates to fund operations and fund performance. The Independent Trustees receive advice from independent counsel to the Independent Trustees, including a memorandum regarding the responsibilities of trustees for the approval of investment advisory agreements. In addition, the Independent Trustees meet in executive session outside the presence of fund management and participate in question and answer sessions with representatives of CSIM and the Sub-Advisers, as appropriate. The Board also discusses with CSIM the Funds’ operations and CSIM’s ability, consistent with the “manager of managers” structure of each of the Funds to (i) identify and recommend to the Trustees sub-advisers for each Fund, (ii) monitor and oversee the performance and investment capabilities of each sub-adviser, and (iii) recommend the replacement of a sub-adviser when appropriate.
 
The Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, considered information specifically relating to its consideration of the continuance of the Agreements with respect to the Funds at meetings held on April 27, 2009, and May 15, 2009, and approved the renewal of the Agreements with respect to the Funds for an additional one year term at the meeting held on May 15, 2009. The Board’s approval of the Agreements with respect to the Funds was based on consideration and evaluation of a variety of specific factors discussed at these meetings and at prior meetings, including:
 
1.  the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Funds under the Agreements, including the resources of CSIM and its affiliates, and the Sub-Advisers, dedicated to the Funds;
 
2.  each Fund’s investment performance and how it compared to that of certain other comparable mutual funds;
 
3.  each Fund’s expenses and how those expenses compared to those of certain other comparable mutual funds and other types of accounts;
 
4.  the profitability of CSIM and its affiliates, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (“Schwab”), with respect to each Fund, including both direct and indirect benefits accruing to CSIM and its affiliates, as well as the profitability of the Sub-Advisers; and
 
5.  the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Funds grow and whether fee levels in the Agreements reflect those economies of scale for the benefit of Fund investors.
 
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Board considered the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by CSIM to the Funds and the resources of CSIM and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds. In this regard, the Trustees evaluated, among other things, CSIM’s personnel, experience, track record and compliance program. The Trustees also considered investments in CSIM’s mutual fund infrastructure and the fact that Schwab’s wide range of products, services, and channel alternatives such as free advice, investment and research tools, Internet access, and an array of

account features that benefit the Funds and their shareholders. The Trustees also considered Schwab’s excellent reputation as a full service brokerage firm and its overall financial condition. In addition, the Trustees considered that many of the Funds’ shareholders are also brokerage clients of Schwab. The Board also considered the nature, extent and quality of the sub-advisory services provided by the Sub-Advisers to the Funds and the resources each dedicates to the Funds. In this regard, the Trustees evaluated among other things, each Sub-Adviser’s personnel, experience and compliance program. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the nature, extent and quality of services provided by CSIM and the Sub-Advisers to the Funds and the resources of CSIM, and its affiliates, and the Sub-Advisers dedicated to the Funds supported renewal of the Agreements with respect to the Funds.
 
Fund Performance. The Board considered Fund performance in determining whether to renew the Agreements with respect to the Funds. Specifically, the Trustees considered each Fund’s performance relative to a peer group and peer category of other mutual funds and appropriate indices/benchmarks, in light of total return, yield, if applicable, and market trends. As part of this review, the Trustees considered the composition of the peer group and peer category, selection criteria and the reputation of the third party who prepared the peer group and peer category analysis. In evaluating the performance of each Fund, the Trustees considered both risk and shareholder risk expectations for such Fund and the appropriateness of the benchmark used to compare the performance of each Fund. In addition, the Trustees considered whether irrespective of relative performance, each Sub-Adviser’s absolute performance was consistent with expectations for such Sub-Adviser’s unique investment methodology. The Trustees further considered the level of Fund performance in the context of its review of Fund expenses and adviser profitability discussed below. Following such evaluation the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the performance of the Funds supported renewal of the Agreements with respect to the Funds.
 
Fund Expenses. With respect to the Funds’ expenses, the Trustees considered the rate of compensation called for by the Agreements, and each Fund’s net operating expense ratio, in each case, in comparison to those of other comparable mutual funds, such peer groups and comparisons having been selected and calculated by an independent third party. The Trustees considered the effects of CSIM’s and Schwab’s historical practice of voluntarily waiving management and other fees to prevent total Fund expenses from exceeding a specified cap. The Trustees also considered a commitment by CSIM and Schwab to extend each Fund’s specified expense cap for so long as CSIM serves as the adviser to such Fund. The Trustees also considered fees charged by CSIM and the Sub-Advisers to other mutual funds and to other types of accounts, such as separate accounts, pooled vehicles and wrap accounts, but, with respect to such other types of accounts, accorded less weight to such comparisons due to the different legal, regulatory, compliance and operating features of mutual funds as compared to these other types of accounts. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the expenses of the Funds are reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreements with respect to the Funds.
 
Profitability. With regard to profitability, the Trustees considered the compensation flowing to CSIM and its affiliates, directly or indirectly and the compensation flowing to the Sub-Advisers, directly or indirectly. In this connection, the Trustees reviewed management’s profitability analyses, together with certain commentary thereon from an independent accounting firm. The Trustees also considered any other benefits derived by CSIM and the Sub-Advisers from their relationship with the Funds, such as whether, by virtue of its management of the Funds, CSIM or any Sub-Adviser obtains investment information or other research resources that aid it in providing advisory services to other clients. The Trustees considered whether the varied levels of compensation and profitability under the Agreements and other service agreements were reasonable and justified in light of the quality of all services rendered to each Fund by CSIM and the Sub-Advisers and their respective affiliates. The Board also considered the profitability of the Sub-Advisers with respect to the sub-advisory services they provide to the Funds, although, when doing so, the Board took into account the fact that the Sub-Advisers are compensated by CSIM, and not by the Funds directly, and such compensation with respect to any Sub-Adviser reflects an arms-length negotiation between the Sub-Adviser and CSIM. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the profitability of CSIM and the Sub-Advisers is reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreements with respect to the Funds.
 
Economies of Scale. The Trustees considered the existence of any economies of scale and whether those are passed along to a Fund’s shareholders through a graduated investment advisory fee schedule or other means, including any fee waivers by CSIM and its affiliates. In this regard, and consistent with their consideration of Fund expenses, the Trustees considered that CSIM and Schwab have previously committed resources to minimize the effects on shareholders of diseconomies of scale during periods when fund assets were relatively small through their contractual expense waivers. For example, such diseconomies of scale may particularly affect newer funds or funds with investment strategies that are from time to time out of favor, but shareholders may benefit from the continued availability of such funds at
 
 
 
 51


 

subsidized expense levels. The Trustees also considered existing contractual investment advisory fee schedules that include lower fees at higher graduated asset levels.
 
Based on this evaluation the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the Funds obtain reasonable benefit from economies of scale. In the course of their deliberations, the Trustees did not identify any particular information or factor that was all important or controlling. Based on the Trustees’ deliberation and their evaluation of the information described above, the Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, approved the continuation of the Agreements with respect to the Funds and concluded that the compensation under the Agreements with respect to the Funds is fair and reasonable in light of such services and expenses and such other matters as the Trustees have considered to be relevant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment.

1 Trustees remain in office until they resign, retire or are removed by shareholder vote. The Schwab Funds retirement policy requires that independent trustees elected after January 1, 2000 retire at age 72 or after 20 years of service as a trustee, whichever comes first. Independent trustees elected prior to January 1, 2000 will retire on the following schedule: Messrs. Stephens and Wilsey will retire on December 31, 2010.
2 Messrs. Schwab and Bettinger are Interested Trustees because they are employees of Schwab and/or the investment adviser. In addition to their employment with Schwab and/or the investment adviser, Messrs. Schwab and Bettinger also own stock of The Charles Schwab Corporation.
3 The President, Treasurer and Secretary hold office until their respective successors are chosen and qualified or until he or she sooner dies, resigns, is removed or becomes disqualified. Each of the other officers serves at the pleasure of the Board.

Glossary
 
 
asset allocation The practice of dividing a portfolio among different asset classes, with each asset class assigned a particular percentage.
 
asset class A group of securities with similar structure and basic characteristics. Stocks, bonds and cash are the three main examples of asset classes.
 
beta A historical measure of an investment’s volatility relative to a market index (usually the S&P 500{R}). The index is defined as having a beta of 1.00. Investments with a beta higher than 1.00 have been more volatile than the index; those with a beta of less than 1.00 have been less volatile.
 
bond A security representing a loan from the investor to the issuer. A bond typically pays interest at a fixed rate (the “coupon rate”) until a specified date (the “maturity date”), at which time the issuer returns the money borrowed (“principal” or “face value”) to the bondholder. Because of their structure, bonds are sometimes called “fixed income securities” or “debt securities.”
 
An individual bond is subject to the credit risk of the issuer. Changes in interest rates can affect a bond’s market value prior to call or maturity. There is no guarantee that a bond’s yield to call or maturity will provide a positive return over the rate of inflation.
 
bond fund A bond fund is subject to the same credit, interest rate, and inflation risks as bonds. In addition, a bond fund incurs ongoing fees and expenses. A bond fund’s net asset value will fluctuate with the price of the underlying bonds and the portfolio turnover activity; return of principal is not guaranteed.
 
cap, capitalization See “market cap.”
 
capital gain, capital loss the difference between the amount paid for an investment and its value at a later time. If the investment has been sold, the capital gain or loss is considered a realized gain or loss. If the investment is still held, the gain or loss is still “on paper” and is considered unrealized.
 
earnings growth rate For a mutual fund, the average yearly rate at which the earnings of the companies in the fund’s portfolio have grown, measured over the past five years.
 
earnings per share (EPS) A company’s earnings, or net income, for the past 12 months, divided by the number of shares outstanding.
 
expense ratio The amount that is taken from a mutual fund’s assets each year to cover the fund’s operating expenses. An expense ratio of 0.50% means that a fund’s expenses amount to half of one percent of its average net assets a year.
 
market cap, market capitalization The value of a company as determined by the total value of all shares of its stock outstanding.
 
median market cap The midpoint of the range of market caps of the stocks held by a fund. There are different ways of calculating median market cap. With a simple median, half of the stocks in the fund’s portfolio would be larger than the median, and half would be smaller. With a weighted median (the type that is calculated for these funds), half of the fund’s assets are invested in stocks that are larger than the median market cap, and half in stocks that are smaller.
 
net asset value (NAV) The value of one share of a mutual fund. NAV is calculated by taking the fund’s total assets, subtracting liabilities, and dividing by the number of shares outstanding.
 
outstanding shares, shares outstanding When speaking of a company or mutual fund, indicates all shares currently held by investors.
 
price-to-book ratio (P/B)  The market price of a company’s stock compared with its “book value.” A mutual fund’s P/B is the weighted average of the P/B of all stocks in the fund’s portfolio.
 
price-to-earnings ratio (P/E)  The market price of a company’s stock compared with earnings over the past year. A mutual fund’s P/E is the weighted average of the P/E of all stocks in the fund’s portfolio.
 
return on equity (ROE) The average yearly rate of return for each dollar of investors’ money, measured over the past five years.
 
stock A share of ownership, or equity, in the issuing company.
 
total return The percentage that an investor would have earned or lost on an investment in the fund assuming dividends and distributions were reinvested.
 
weighted average For mutual funds, an average that gives the same weight to each security as the security represents in the fund’s portfolio.
 
yield The income paid out by an investment, expressed as a percentage of the investment’s market value.

This supplement provides new and additional information beyond that contained in the Prospectus and should be read in conjunction with the Prospectus.
 
The Prospectus is revised to include the following:
 
The “Principal risks” section at page 3 of the Schwab Fundamental US Large Company Index Fund and at page 9 of the Schwab Fundamental US Small-Mid Company Index Fund includes the following:
 
Tracking Error Risk. As an index fund, the fund seeks to track the performance of its benchmark index, although it may not be successful in doing so. The divergence between the performance of the fund and its benchmark index, positive or negative, is called “tracking error.” Tracking error can be caused by many factors and it may be significant. For example, the fund may not invest in all of the securities in its benchmark index or may invest in securities not in the index, because the manager may use a sampling technique that is designed to balance the risk of tracking error against the negative effects of transaction costs associated with certain investments. Similarly, the fund may not invest in certain securities in its benchmark index, or match the securities’ weighting to the benchmark, due to regulatory, operational, custodial or liquidity constraints; corporate transactions; asset valuations; transaction costs and timing; tax considerations; and index rebalancing, which may result in tracking error. The fund may attempt to offset the effects of not being invested in certain index securities by making substitute investments, but these efforts may not be successful. In addition, cash flows into and out of the fund, operating expenses and trading costs all affect the ability of the fund to match the performance of its benchmark index, because the benchmark index does not have to manage cash flows and does not incur any costs.
 
Sampling Index Tracking Risk. The fund does not fully replicate the benchmark index and may hold securities not included in the index. As a result, the fund is subject to the risk that the investment adviser’s investment management strategy, the implementation of which is subject to a number of constraints, may not produce the intended results. Because the fund utilizes a sampling approach it may not track the return of the index as well as it would if the fund purchased all of the securities in its benchmark index.
 
The “Principal risks” section at page 15 of the Schwab Fundamental International Large Company Index Fund, at page 21 of the Schwab Fundamental International Small-Mid Company Index Fund and at page 27 of the Schwab Emerging Markets Index Fund includes the following:

From the President
 

MERK PHOTO
 
Randall W. Merk is President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. and the funds covered in this report. He joined the firm in 2002 and has held a variety of executive positions at Schwab.

 
Dear Shareholder,
 
In the past year, volatile prices throughout the global financial marketplace and a recessionary economy have been among the numerous challenges affecting investment conditions and investor sentiment. While portfolios may still be below peak values reached in 2007, many have recovered substantially from lows touched as markets dropped in 2008 and early 2009. In particular, prices of many equity and fixed income securities declined precipitously toward the end of 2008 and the beginning of 2009. Since March of 2009, however, improvements in the financial markets and diminished concern over the depth and duration of the economic recession led to a broad-market recovery, with the prices of many equity securities rebounding from earlier lows.
 
During the reporting period, we made a number of improvements to the Schwab Funds family of mutual funds making it cheaper and easier for our clients to invest in Schwab Funds. On May 5, 2009, we lowered expenses on Schwab Equity Index Funds and consolidated share classes for Schwab equity and bond funds. Each Schwab equity and bond fund now offers one low fund expense to investors regardless of how much they invest, with a low $100 minimum investment. Our goal is to make investing easier and more affordable for our clients and the advisors who serve them.
 
For information on the investment environment and the performance of individual funds contained in this book, please see the fund managers’ discussion and analysis in the following pages of this report.
 
If you have any questions about Schwab Funds, we are always available at 1-800-435-4000, while additional resources may be found on Schwab.com
 
Thank you for investing with us.
 
Sincerely,
 
-s- Randall W. Merk

The Investment Environment
 
 
 
Investment conditions in the global financial market improved markedly in the second half of the reporting period, from the end of March through October, as concern over the economic recession and financial crisis ebbed. The first four months of the period, from November through February, were generally bearish; equity prices were driven down across the board as investors pulled back from the markets amidst poor macroeconomic data and pessimism over the markets’ ability to mount swift recoveries. Since March of 2009, however, both domestic and international markets experienced recovery, which helped to reduce earlier losses and produce positive 12-month returns in many cases. On the fixed income side, yields remained low on government backed securities, but leading broad market municipal and taxable bond indices were positive for the period.
 
Major economic indicators, such as Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and unemployment, continued to demonstrate that a consistent recovery has yet to materialize across many measures of the economy. GDP—the output of goods and services produced by labor and property located in the United States—rose 2.8% in the third quarter of 2009, after declining 0.7% in the prior quarter. The third quarter GDP gain was primarily attributable to increases in personal consumption expenditures, exports, private inventory investment, and government spending, according to the Bureau of Economic Analysis. The U.S. unemployment rate increased from 6.7% in November of 2008 to 10.2% in October of 2009. Sales of existing homes were a bright spot toward the end of the period, rising 9.4% in September, fueled by tax credits for new home buyers and favorable prices.
 
The returns of the S&P 500 Index, which is usually seen as a bellwether for financial markets, were positive. For the 12-month reporting period ending October 31, 2009, the S&P 500 Index returned 9.80%. In the index, Information Technology was the strongest performing sector, followed by Consumer Discretionary and Materials. Financials was the weakest sector, followed by Utilities and Industrials. In general, large-cap stocks outperformed small-cap as evidenced by the Russell 1000 Index, which returned 11.20%, compared with the Russell 2000 Index, which returned 6.46%. Looking at the broad market, growth outperformed value; the Russell 3000 Growth Index returned 17.04%, while the Russell 3000 Value Index returned 4.56%. Internationally, the MSCI EAFE Index returned 28.41%, while the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (Net)* returned 64.13%.
 
On the fixed income side, yields were low throughout the period for U.S. Treasury securities, especially those with the shortest maturities. The Barclays Capital U.S. Short Treasury: 9-12 Months returned 1.75%. The broad taxable bond market fared better, benefiting from price recovery on mortgage-backed securities and other assets that were out of favor with investors during the darkest moments of the financial crisis; the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index returned 13.79%. Returns were also positive in the tax free bond market—the Barclays Capital General Muni Bond Index returned 13.60%. The Federal Open Market Committee reaffirmed on November 4, 2009 that it would continue to hold interest rates at a target range of 0 to 0.25%.

Schwab Fundamental US Large* Company
Index Fund
 
 
The Schwab Fundamental US Large Company Index Fund returned 22.04% during the period, compared to the benchmark FTSE RAFI US 1000 Index, which returned 22.28%. The FTSE RAFI US 1000 Index includes the largest listed companies incorporated in the United States ranked by fundamental value. Unlike the fund, the index does not bear operational and transactional costs.
 
From a total return standpoint, better performing industry groups in the fund were led by Consumer Discretionary, Materials and Information Technology. Poorly performing sectors were led by Financials, Telecommunication Services, and Utilities. On an industry group level, Automobiles & Components led, followed by Consumer Services, and Retailing. Poorly performing industry groups were led by Banks, followed by Diversified Financials, and Household & Personal Products. Better performing stocks in the fund included Ford Motor Company, Avis Budget Group, Inc. and The Hartford Financial Services Group, Inc. Stocks detracting from returns included Citigroup, Inc., Motors Liquid Co., and Wells Fargo & Co.
 
Due to regulatory, operational, custodial or liquidity constraints; corporate transactions; asset valuations; transaction costs and timing; tax considerations; and index rebalancing, the fund may not invest in certain securities in its benchmark index, or match the securities’ weighting to that of the benchmark. Therefore, the fund’s return may differ from that of the benchmark.

Schwab Fundamental US Small-Mid* Company
Index Fund
 
 
The Schwab Fundamental US Small-Mid Company Index Fund returned 26.68% during the period, compared to the benchmark FTSE RAFI US Mid Small 1500 Index, which returned 28.33%. The FTSE RAFI US Mid Small 1500 Index is composed of small and medium-sized companies incorporated in the United States ranked by fundamental value. Unlike the fund, the index does not include operational and transactional costs.
 
From a total return standpoint, better performing industry groups in the fund were led by Media, which was up over 100%, as well as Retailing and Automobiles & Components, which both had high double digit returns. Poorly performing sectors were led by Banks, down about 40%, and Transportation and Food & Staples Retailing, which both had slightly negative returns. Better performing securities in the fund included Valassis Communications, Inc., Modine Manufacturing Co. and La-Z-Boy, Inc. Poorly performing securities included First Bancorp, Pacific Cap Bancorp and Bankatlantic Bancorp.
 
Due to regulatory, operational, custodial or liquidity constraints; corporate transactions; asset valuations; transaction costs and timing; tax considerations; and index rebalancing, the fund may not invest in certain securities in its benchmark index, or match the securities’ weighting to that of the benchmark. Therefore, the fund’s return may differ from that of the benchmark.
 
Relative to the benchmark, the fund trailed the strongly positive returns in the Media and Retailing industry groups. On a stock selection basis, underweights to Pier 1 Imports, Inc. and Air Transport Services Group, Inc., which both performed well during the period, contributed to underperformance.

Schwab Fundamental International* Large Company Index Fund
 
 
The Schwab Fundamental International Large Company Index Fund returned 34.89% during the period, compared to the benchmark FTSE RAFI Developed ex US 1000 Index, which returned 40.09%. The FTSE RAFI Developed ex US 1000 Index consists of the 1000 largest listed companies incorporated outside of the United States ranked by fundamental value. Unlike the fund, the index does not include operational or transactional costs.
 
From a total return standpoint, Materials was the best performing sector in the fund, returning close to 60%. Financials and Industrials were also strong, with returns up about 40%. In terms of poorly performing sectors, Utilities was the weakest performer, up less than 10%. Health Care also lagged, up only 15%. Looking at returns by country, Japan was the weakest performer among the fund’s major country allocations, up around 20%. The United Kingdom, which is comparable in terms of allocation to Japan, was up about 30%. France, which is about half the weight of Japan and the U.K., was the strongest of the major allocations, up almost 40%. Better performing securities in the fund included ING Groep N.V., Barclays plc, and UniCredit S.p.A. Poorly performing securities included Volkswagen AG and HBOS plc.
 
A part of the fund’s underperformance relative to its benchmark occurred due to fair valuation of the fund’s holdings on the last trading day of the current and prior period.** Another portion of the fund’s underperformance was attributable to security weights in the fund compared to those of the benchmark. Due to regulatory, operational, custodial or liquidity constraints; corporate transactions; asset valuations; transaction costs and timing; tax considerations; and index rebalancing, the fund may not invest in certain securities in its benchmark index, or match the securities’ weighting to that of the benchmark. Therefore, the fund’s return may differ from that of the benchmark.
 
In terms of security weights, overweights to Mizuho Financial Group and NTT, both securities in the Japanese market, detracted from performance. In addition, slight underweights to the well performing ING Groep N.V. and UniCredit S.p.A. also detracted from relative performance.

**The fund has adopted procedures to fair value international securities while the indexes under discussion have not. By fair valuing securities whose prices may have been affected by events occurring after the close of trading in their respective international markets, each fund seeks to establish prices that investors might expect to realize upon the current sales of these securities. This methodology is designed to deter “arbitrage” market timers, who seek to exploit delays between the change in the value of a fund’s portfolio holdings and the net asset value of the fund’s shares, and seeks to help ensure that the prices at which the fund’s shares are purchased and redeemed are fair and do not result in dilution of shareholder interest or other harm to shareholders. It is conducted every day, but the daily changes are not always significant enough to affect fund performance. Please see financial note 2 in this report for more information.

Schwab Fundamental International* Small-Mid Company Index Fund
 
 
The Schwab Fundamental International Small-Mid Company Index Fund returned 51.19% for the period, while the benchmark FTSE RAFI Developed ex US Mid Small 1500 Index returned 61.42%. The fund generally invests in stocks that comprise the FTSE RAFI Developed ex US Mid Small 1500 Index. The index is comprised of 1500 small and medium-sized companies domiciled in developed countries outside the United States ranked by fundamental value. Unlike the fund, the index does not include operational or transactional costs.
 
From a total return standpoint, Materials was the best performing sector in the fund, up over 70%. Energy and Consumer Discretionary were also strong, up about 65%. Though still positive, weaker sectors included Utilities, which was up about 20%, and Consumer Staples, up around 35%. Better performing securities in the fund included ING Industrial Fund, Pacific Brands Ltd. and Lundin Mining Corp. Poorly performing securities included Okinawa Electric Power and Pirelli & Co. Real Estate. Looking at returns by country, Japan, which comprises about half the portfolio in terms of allocation, returned 30%, while the next largest countries by allocation, the United Kingdom and Canada, returned 50% and 70%, respectively.
 
A part of the fund’s underperformance relative to its benchmark occurred due to fair valuation of the fund’s holdings on the last trading day of the current and prior period.** Another portion of the fund’s underperformance was attributable to security weights in the fund compared to those of the benchmark. Due to regulatory, operational, custodial or liquidity constraints; corporate transactions; asset valuations; transaction costs and timing; tax considerations; and index rebalancing, the fund may not invest in certain securities in its benchmark index, or match the securities’ weighting to that of the benchmark. Therefore, the fund’s return may differ from that of the benchmark.
 
In particular, an overweight to Coca-Cola Central Japan Co. detracted from performance. In other areas, an underweight to Northgate and an underweight to Trelleborg AB also detracted from performance. On a sector specific level, an overweight to the poorly performing Consumer Staples sector detracted from performance. When looking at country allocations, an underweight to Australia and an underweight to Canada also hurt the fund.

Schwab Fundamental Index Funds 13


 

 
Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets*
Index Fund
 
 
 
The Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets Index Fund returned 59.55% for the period, while the benchmark FTSE RAFI Emerging Index returned 68.74%. The fund generally invests in stocks that comprise the FTSE RAFI Emerging Index. The Index is comprised of 350 companies from emerging markets ranked by fundamental value. Unlike the fund, the index does not include operational or transactional costs.
 
From a total return standpoint, Financials was the best performing sector in the fund, up over 95%. Materials and Consumer Discretionary were also strong, up about 70% and 80%, respectively. Though still positive, weaker sectors included Telecomm Services, which was up about 20%, and Health Care, up around 25%. Better performing securities in the fund included Bank of China Ltd. and Petroleo Brasileiro S.A. Poorly performing securities included Votorantim Celulose e Papel S.A., Telekomunikacja Polska S.A. and Telefonos de Mexico S.A.B. Looking at returns by country, China and Brazil, which together compose about 30% of the fund, were strongly positive, up around 85%. South Korea and Taiwan, which together compose about 30% of the fund, were up around 50%.
 
A part of the fund’s underperformance relative to its benchmark occurred due to fair valuation of the fund’s holdings on the last trading day of the current and prior period.** Another portion of the fund’s underperformance was attributable to security weights in the fund compared to those of the benchmark. Due to regulatory, operational, custodial or liquidity constraints; corporate transactions; asset valuations; transaction costs and timing; tax considerations; and index rebalancing, the fund may not invest in certain securities in its benchmark index, or match the securities’ weighting to that of the benchmark. Therefore, the fund’s return may differ from that of the benchmark.
 
An overweight to South Korea detracted from performance, as did underweights to Russia and Brazil. In terms of stock selection, Gasprom and SberBank Rossii were among the leading detractors from performance.
 
Another detractor from performance was the return on American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs). In the Russian market, the fund’s ADRs and GDRs underperformed their local equivalents. Due to certain risk factors, the fund does not directly hold local Russian securities and uses ADRs and GDRs to invest in the Russian market.

All figures on this page assume dividends and distributions were reinvested. Index figures do not include trading and management costs, which would lower performance. Indices are unmanaged, and you cannot invest in them directly. Performance results less than one year are not annualized.
 
1  Fund expenses may have been partially absorbed by CSIM and Schwab. Without these reductions, the fund’s returns would have been lower. These returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares.
 
2  Source for category information: Morningstar, Inc.
 
3  As stated in the prospectus. Net Expense: Expenses reduced by a contractual fee waiver in effect for so long as CSIM serves as adviser to the fund. Gross Expense: Does not reflect the effect of contractual fee waivers. For actual ratios during the period, refer to the financial highlights section of the financial statements.
 
4  On October 19, 2009, the Investor Share class, Select Share class and Institutional Share class were combined into a single class of shares of the fund. The performance and financial history of the fund are that of the fund’s former Institutional Shares. Accordingly, the past performance shown is that of the fund’s former Institutional Shares.
 
5  Source: Morningstar, Inc. This style assessment is the result of evaluating the fund based on a ten-factor model for value and growth characteristics. The fund’s market capitalization placement is determined by the geometric mean of its holdings’ market capitalizations. The assessment reflects the fund’s portfolio as of 10/31/09, which may have changed since then, and is not a precise indication of risk or performance—past, present, or future.

Fund Expenses (Unaudited)
 
 Examples for a $1,000 Investment
 
As a fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: transaction costs, such as redemption fees, and ongoing costs, such as management fees, transfer agent and shareholder services fees, and other fund expenses.
 
The expense examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing cost (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare this cost with the ongoing cost of investing in other mutual funds. These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested for six-months beginning May 1, 2009 and held through October 31, 2009.
 
Actual Return lines in the table below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use this information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value ¸ $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for your fund or share class under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period”.
 
Hypothetical Return lines in the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed return of 5% per year before expenses. Because the return used is not an actual return, it may not be used to estimate the actual ending account value or expenses you paid for the period.
 
You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
 
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only, and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as redemption fees. If these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Prior to October 20, 2009, the Schwab Fundamental International Large Company Index Fund, Schwab Fundamental International Small-Mid Company Index Fund and Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets Index Fund each offered three share classes: Investor Shares, Select Shares, and Institutional Shares. Effective October 19, 2009, all outstanding Investor Shares and Select Shares of the Schwab Fundamental International Large Company Index Fund, Schwab Fundamental International Small-Mid Company Index Fund and Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets Index Fund were converted into Institutional Shares and each fund no longer offer separate share classes. Immediately after and as a result of the conversion, each shareholder of the Investor Shares and Select Shares became an owner of Institutional Shares of the same fund. Prior to October 28, 2009, the Schwab Fundamental US Large Company Index Fund and Schwab Fundamental US Small-Mid Company Index Fund each offered three share classes: Investor Shares, Select Shares, and Institutional Shares. Effective October 27, 2009, all outstanding Investor Shares and Select Shares of the Schwab Fundamental US Large Company Index Fund and Schwab Fundamental US Small-Mid Company Index Fund were converted into Institutional Shares and each fund no longer offered separate share classes. Immediately after and as a result of the conversion, each shareholder of the Investor Shares and Select Shares became an owner of Institutional Shares of the same fund.
 
Shares are bought and sold (subject to a redemption fee, see Note 8) at closing net asset value (“NAV”), which is the price for all outstanding shares of a fund. Each share has a par value of 1/1,000 of a cent, and the trustees may authorize the issuance of as many shares as necessary.
 
Each fund maintains its own account for purposes of holding assets and accounting, and is considered a separate entity for tax purposes. Within its account, each fund may also keep certain assets in segregated accounts, as required by securities law.
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the funds used in the preparation of financial statements. The accounting policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Financial Notes (continued)
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
(a) Security Valuation:
 
The funds value the securities in their portfolios every business day. The funds use the following policies to value various types of securities:
 
  •  Securities traded on an exchange or over-the-counter: valued at the closing value for the day, or, on days when no closing value has been reported, halfway between the most recent bid and asked quotes. Securities that are primarily traded on foreign exchanges are valued at the closing values of such securities on their respective exchanges with these values then translated into U.S. dollars at the valuation date exchange rate.
 
  •  Securities for which no quoted value is available: The Board of Trustees has adopted procedures to fair value each fund’s securities when market prices are not “readily available” or are unreliable. For example, a fund may fair value a security when a security is delisted or its trading is halted or suspended; when a security’s primary pricing source is unable or unwilling to provide a price when a security’s primary trading market is closed during regular market hours. Each fund makes fair value determinations in good faith in accordance with the fund’s valuation procedures. The Board of Trustees regularly reviews fair value determinations made by the funds pursuant to the procedures.
 
  •  International Fair Valuation: The Board of Trustees has adopted procedures to fair value foreign securities that trade in markets that close prior to when the funds value their holdings. By fair valuing securities whose prices may have been affected by events after the close of trading, each fund seeks to establish prices that investors might expect to realize upon the current sales of these securities. This methodology is designed to deter “arbitrage” market timers, who seek to exploit delays between the change in the value of a fund’s portfolio holdings and the net asset value of the fund’s shares, and seeks to help ensure that the prices at which the fund’s shares are purchased and redeemed are fair and do not result in dilution of shareholder interest or other harm to shareholders. When fair value pricing is used at the open or close of a reporting period, it may cause a temporary divergence between the return of a fund and that of its index or benchmark. Each fund makes fair value determinations in good faith in accordance with the fund’s valuation procedures. Due to the subjective and variable nature of fair value pricing, there can be no assurance that a fund could obtain the value assigned to the security upon the sale of such security. The Board of Trustees regularly reviews fair value determinations made by the funds pursuant to these procedures.
 
  •  Futures and Forwards contracts: valued at their settlement prices as of the close of their exchanges (for futures) or at a market value based on that day’s exchange rates (for forwards).
 
  •  Short-term securities (60 days or less to maturity): valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.
 
  •  Underlying funds: valued at their respective NAV as determined by those funds in accordance with the 1940 Act for a given day.
 
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures under GAAP, the funds disclose the fair value of their investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (level 3 measurements).
 
Effective June 15, 2009, the funds adopted the authoritative guidance under GAAP on determining fair value when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased and identifying transactions that are not orderly. Accordingly, if the funds determine that either the volume and/or level of activity for an asset or liability has significantly decreased (from normal conditions for that asset or liability) or price quotations or observable inputs are not associated with orderly transactions, increased analysis and management judgment will be required to estimate fair value.
 
The guidance establishes three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:
 
  •  Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical securities. — Investments whose values are based on quoted market prices in active markets, and whose values are therefore classified as Level 1 prices, include active listed equities. The funds

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
  do not adjust the quoted price for such investments, even in situations where the funds hold a large position and a sale could reasonably impact the quoted price.
 
  •  Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) — Investments that trade in markets that are not considered to be active, but whose values are based on quoted market prices, dealer quotations or valuations provided by alternative pricing sources supported by observable inputs are classified as Level 2 Prices. These generally include certain U.S. government and sovereign obligations, most government agency securities, investment-grade corporate bonds, certain mortgage products, less liquid listed equities, and state, municipal and provincial obligations. In addition, international securities whose markets close hours before the funds value their holdings may require revised valuations due to significant movement in the U.S. markets occurring after the daily close of the foreign markets. The Board of Trustees has approved a vendor that would calculate revised valuations of international securities based on a number of factors that appear to correlate to the movements in the U.S. markets. As investments whose values are classified as Level 2 Prices include positions that are not traded in active markets and/or are subject to transfer restrictions, valuations may be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, which are generally based on available market information.
 
  •  Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the funds’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). — Investments whose values are classified as Level 3 prices have significant unobservable inputs, as they may trade infrequently or not at all. When observable prices are not available for these securities, the funds use one or more valuation techniques for which sufficient and reliable data is available. The inputs used by the funds in estimating the value of Level 3 prices may include the original transaction price, quoted prices for similar securities or assets in active markets, completed or pending third-party transactions in the underlying investment or comparable issuers, and changes in financial ratios or cash flows. Level 3 prices may also be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, with the amount of such discount estimated by the funds in the absence of market information. Assumptions used by the funds due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting fair value and therefore the funds’ results of operations.
 
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the funds’ investments as of October 31, 2009:

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
(b) Portfolio Investments:
 
Derivatives: Derivative instruments are defined as financial instruments whose value and performance are based on the value and performance of another security or financial instrument. The funds may invest in futures contracts in order to reduce the effects of uninvested cash on performance or for other reasons. Futures contracts are instruments that represent an agreement between two parties that obligates one party to buy, and the other party to sell, specific instruments at an agreed-upon price on a stipulated future date.
 
Because futures contracts carry inherent risks, a fund must give the broker a deposit of cash and/or securities (the “initial margin”) whenever it enters into the futures contract. The amount of the deposit may vary from one contract to another, but it is generally a percentage of the contract amount. Subsequent payments (“variation margin”) are made or received by a fund depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the futures contract and are accounted for as unrealized gains or losses. Futures are traded publicly on exchanges, and their market value changes daily.
 
The funds invested in forward currency contracts in connection with the purchase and sale of portfolio securities to minimize the uncertainty of changes in future foreign currency exchange rates. “Forwards”, as they are known, are contracts to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. Forwards are similar to futures except that they are not publicly traded, but are agreements directly between two parties.
 
(c) Security Transactions:
 
Security transactions are recorded as of the date the order to buy or sell the security is executed. Realized gains and losses from security transactions are based on the identified costs of the securities involved.
 
Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are reported in U.S. dollars. For assets and liabilities held on a given date, the dollar value is based on market exchange rates in effect on that date. Transactions involving foreign currencies, including purchases, sales, income receipts and expense payments, are calculated using exchange rates in effect on the transaction date. The funds do not isolate the portion of the fluctuations on investments resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rates from the fluctuations in market prices of investments held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.
 
Gains realized by the funds on the sale of securities in certain foreign countries may be subject to non-U.S. taxes. The funds record a liability based on unrealized gains to provide for potential non-U.S. taxes payable upon the sale of these securities.
 
When a fund closes out a futures or forwards position, it calculates the difference between the value of the position at the beginning and at the end of the contract, and records a realized gain or loss accordingly. A fund records the daily change in market value of futures and also the change in the amount of margin deposit required (“due to / from broker”).
 
(d) Investment Income:
 
Interest income is recorded as it accrues. Dividends (net of any applicable foreign tax withholding) and distributions from portfolio securities and underlying funds are recorded on the date they are effective (the ex-dividend date), although the funds record certain foreign security dividends on the day they learn of the ex-dividend date.
 
(e) Expenses:
 
Expenses that are specific to a fund within the trust are charged directly to that fund. Expenses that are common to all funds within the trust generally are allocated among the funds in proportion to their average daily net assets.
 
For funds that offered multiple share classes, prior to the collapsing of the classes, net investment income, other than class specific expenses, and realized and unrealized gains or losses, were allocated daily to each class in proportion to their average daily net assets.
 
(f) Distributions to Shareholders:
 
The funds make distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains once a year if any.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
(g) Custody Credit:
 
Certain funds have an arrangement with their custodian bank, State Street Corp., under which the funds receive a credit for their uninvested cash balance to offset their custody fees and accounting fees. The credit amounts (if any) are disclosed in the Statement of Operations as a reduction to the funds’ operating expenses.
 
(h) Accounting Estimates:
 
The accounting policies described in this report conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Notwithstanding this, shareholders should understand that in order to follow these principles, fund management has to make estimates and assumptions that affect the information reported in the financial statements. It’s possible that once the results are known, they may turn out to be different from these estimates.
 
(i) Federal Income Taxes:
 
The funds intend to meet federal income and excise tax requirements for regulated investment companies. Accordingly, the funds distribute substantially all of their net investment income and realized net capital gains (if any) to their respective shareholders each year. As long as a fund meets the tax requirements, it is not required to pay federal income tax.
 
(j) Indemnification:
 
Under the funds’ organizational documents, the officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the funds. In addition, in the normal course of business the funds enter into contracts with their vendors and others that provide general indemnifications. The funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the funds. However, based on experience, the funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.
 
3. Risk factors:
 
Investing in the funds may involve certain risks, as described in the funds’ prospectus, including, but not limited to, those described below:
 
Stock markets rise and fall daily. As with any investment whose performance is tied to these markets, the value of your investment in a fund will fluctuate, which means that you could lose money.
 
The prices of equity securities rise and fall daily. These price movements may result from factors affecting individual companies, industries or the securities market as a whole. Individual companies may report poor results or be negatively affected by industry and/or economic trends and developments. The prices of securities issued by such companies may suffer a decline in response. In addition, the equity market tends to move in cycles which may cause stock prices to fall over short or extended periods of time.
 
The funds invest in companies within the U.S. stock market and outside the U.S. stock market, as measured by the respective Index. It follows these stocks during upturns as well as downturns. Because of its indexing strategy, the funds do not take steps to reduce market exposure or to lessen the effects of a declining market, even though these stocks may go in and out of favor based on market and economic conditions. As a result, during a period when these stocks fall behind other types of investments — bonds or U.S. securities, for instance — the funds’ performance also will lag those investments. In addition, because of the funds expenses, the funds’ performance may be below that of their respective Index.
 
At times, the segment of the equity markets represented by the Index may underperform other market segments. A significant percentage of the Index may be composed of securities in a single industry or sector of the economy. If a fund is focused in an industry or sector, it may present more risks than if it were broadly diversified over numerous industries and sectors of the economy. Because of the way the Index is composed, the Index may perform differently or worse than an equity index that is based solely on market capitalization.

3. Risk factors (continued):
 
Historically, small and mid company stocks have been riskier than large company stocks. Stock prices of smaller companies may be based in substantial part on future expectations rather than current achievements and may move sharply, especially during market upturns and downturns. Smaller companies themselves may be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic events than larger, more established companies.
 
Emerging market countries may be more likely to experience political turmoil or rapid changes in market or economic conditions than more developed countries. Emerging market countries often have less uniformity in accounting and reporting requirements and unreliable securities valuation. It is sometimes difficult to obtain and enforce court judgments in such countries and there is often a greater potential for nationalization and/or expropriation of assets by the government of an emerging market country. In addition, the financial stability of issuers (including governments) in emerging market countries may be more precarious than in other countries. As a result, there will tend to be an increased risk of price volatility associated with a fund’s investments in emerging market countries, which may be magnified by currency fluctuations relative to the U.S. dollar.
 
A fund’s investments in securities of foreign companies involve certain risks that are greater than those associated with investments in securities of U.S. companies. These include risks of adverse changes in foreign economic, political, regulatory and other conditions, or changes in currency exchange rates or exchange control regulations (including limitations on currency movements and exchanges). In certain countries, legal remedies available to investors may be more limited than those available with respect to investments in the United States. The securities of some foreign companies may be less liquid and, at times, more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. companies. A fund may also experience more rapid or extreme changes in value as compared to a fund that invests solely in securities of U.S. companies because the securities’ markets of many foreign countries are relatively small, with a limited number of companies representing a small number of industries.
 
A fund may use derivatives (including futures) to enhance returns or hedge against market declines. A fund’s use of derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments and could cause a fund to lose more than the principal amount invested. In addition, investments in derivatives may involve leverage, which means a small percentage of assets invested in derivatives can have a disproportionately larger impact on a fund.
 
As index funds, the funds seek to track the performance of their benchmark indices, although they may not be successful in doing so. The divergence between the performance of a fund and its benchmark index, positive or negative, is called “tracking error.” Tracking error can be caused by many factors and it may be significant. For example, a fund may not invest in all of the securities in its benchmark index or may invest in securities not in the index, because the manager may use a sampling technique that is designed to balance the risk of tracking error against the negative effects of transaction costs associated with certain investments. Similarly, a fund may not invest in certain securities in its benchmark index, or match the securities’ weighting to the benchmark, due to regulatory, operational, custodial or liquidity constraints; corporate transactions; asset valuations; transaction costs and timing; tax considerations; and index rebalancing, which may result in tracking error. In addition, international funds may not invest in issuers located in certain countries due to these considerations. A fund may attempt to offset the effects of not being invested in certain index securities by making substitute investments, but these efforts may not be successful. In addition, cash flows into and out of a fund, operating expenses and trading costs all affect the ability of the fund to match the performance of its benchmark index, because the benchmark index does not have to manage cash flows and does not incur any costs.
 
The funds do not fully replicate the benchmark indices and may hold securities not included in the indices. As a result, the funds are subject to the risk that the Adviser’s investment management strategy, the implementation of which is subject to a number of constraints, may not produce the intended results. Because the funds utilize a sampling approach they may not track the return of the indices as well as they would if each fund purchased all of the securities in their benchmark index.
 
Please refer to the funds’ prospectus for a complete description of the principal risks of investing in the funds.

(“BFDS”) as transfer agent of the funds and adopted a Shareholder Servicing Plan (the “Plan”) on behalf of the funds. Pursuant to the Plan, the funds pay Schwab and other financial intermediaries to provide certain account maintenance, customer liaison and shareholder services to the funds’ shareholders holding shares of the funds through that financial intermediary. Under the Plan, Schwab is entitled to receive an annual fee payable monthly based on each funds’ average daily net assets of 0.10%.
 
Prior to July 1, 2009, BFDS served as the funds’ sub-transfer agent. For its transfer agent and shareholder services, Schwab was entitled to receive an annual fee payable monthly based on each fund’s average daily net assets described as follows:
 
                 
   
Transfer Agent Fees
   
Shareholder Service Fees
 
 
Investor Shares
    0.05 %     0.20 %
Select Shares
    0.05 %     0.05 %
Institutional Shares
    0.05 %     0.05 %
 
Although these agreements specify certain fees for these services, CSIM and Schwab have made additional agreements with the funds to limit (“expense limitation”) the total expenses charged, excluding interest, taxes and certain non-routine expenses for so long as the investment adviser serves as the adviser to the funds, which may only be amended or terminated with the approval of the Fund’s Board of Trustees as follows:
 
Effective May 5, 2009, the expense limitations are:

4. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions (continued):
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
CSIM pursuant to which CSIM has agreed to sub-license certain FTSE indexes and trademarks to the funds. Under the sub-license agreement, each fund has agreed to pay its pro rata share of licensing fees and to reimburse CSIM for its pro rata share of a one-time advance licensing payment made by CSIM to FTSE.
 
The funds may engage in certain transactions involving affiliates. For instance, a fund may own shares of The Charles Schwab Corporation if that company is included in its index.
 
As of October 31, 2009, the shares owned by each Schwab Charitable Giving Trust as a percentage of the total share of the Schwab Fundamental International Large Company Index is 13.2%.
 
The funds may make direct transactions with certain other Schwab Funds when practical. When one fund is seeking to sell a security that another is seeking to buy, an interfund transaction can allow both funds to benefit by reducing transaction costs. This practice is limited to funds that share the same investment adviser, trustees and officers. As of October 31, 2009, there were no security transactions with other Schwab Funds.
 
Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, the funds may enter into interfund borrowing and lending transactions within the Schwab Funds. All loans are for temporary or emergency purposes only. The interest rate charged on the loan is the average of the overnight repurchase agreement rate and the short-term bank loan rate. The interfund lending facility is subject to the oversight and periodic review of the Board of Trustees of the Schwab Funds. There was no interfund borrowing or lending activity for the funds during the period.
 
5. Board of Trustees:
 
Trustees may include people who are officers and/or directors of the investment adviser or Schwab. Federal securities law limits the percentage of such “interested persons” who may serve on a trust’s board, and the trust was in compliance with these limitations throughout the report period. The trust did not pay any of these persons for their service as trustees, but it did pay non-interested persons (independent trustees), as noted in each fund’s Statement of Operations.
 
6. Borrowing from Banks:
 
The funds may borrow money from banks and custodians. The funds have custodian overdraft facilities, a committed line of credit of $150 million with State Street Corp., an uncommitted line of credit of $100 million with Bank of America, N.A. and an uncommitted line of credit of $50 million with Brown Brothers Harriman. The funds pay interest on the amounts they borrow at rates that are negotiated periodically. The funds also pay an annual fee to State Street Corp. for the committed line of credit.
 
There were no borrowings from the lines of credit by the funds during the period. However, certain funds utilized their overdraft facility and incurred interest expense, which is disclosed in the Statement of Operations. The interest expense is determined based on a negotiated rate above the current Federal Funds Rate.
 
7. Purchases and Sales of Investment Securities:
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
For the period ended October 31, 2009, purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term obligations) were as follows:

The primary difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation or unrealized depreciation of investments is the tax deferral of losses on wash sales, Passive Foreign Investment Companies (PFIC), Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITS) and futures mark to market.
 
Capital loss carry forwards may be used to offset future realized capital gains for federal income tax purposes. As of October 31, 2009, the following funds had capital loss carry forwards available to offset net capital gains before the expiration dates:

Return of capital
                             
 
Distributions paid to shareholders are based on net investment income and net realized gains determined on a tax basis, which may differ from net investment income and net realized gains for financial reporting purposes. These differences are due primarily to differing treatment for items such as non-U.S. currency gains and losses, short-term capital gains and losses; capital losses related to wash sales, unrealized appreciation of certain investments in non-U.S. securities; and income on certain investments. The fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the year in which the net investment income and net realized gains are recorded by the funds for financial reporting purposes. The funds may also designate a portion of the amount paid to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for tax purposes.
 
The permanent book and tax basis differences may result in reclassifications between capital account and other accounts as required. The adjustments will have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. As of October 31, 2009, the funds made the following reclassifications:

As of October 31, 2009, management has reviewed the tax positions for open periods (for federal purposes, three years from the date of filing and state purposes, four years from the date of filing) as applicable to the funds, and has determined that no provision for income tax is required in the funds’ financial statements. The funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the period ended October 31, 2009, the funds did not incur any interest or penalties. The Schwab Fundamental US Large Company Index Fund, Schwab Fundamental US Small-Mid Company Index Fund, and Schwab Fundamental International Large Company Index Fund are not subject to examination by U.S. federal and state tax authorities before tax year 2007. The Schwab Fundamental International Small-Mid Company Index Fund, and Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets Index Fund are not subject to examination by U.S. federal and state tax authorities before tax year 2008.

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio holdings, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Schwab Fundamental US Large Company Index Fund, Schwab Fundamental US Small-Mid Company Index Fund, Schwab Fundamental International Large Company Index Fund, Schwab Fundamental International Small-Mid Company Index Fund, and Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets Index Fund (five of the portfolios constituting Schwab Capital Trust, hereafter referred to as the “Funds”) at October 31, 2009, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets and the financial highlights for each of the periods presented, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Funds’ management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at October 31, 2009 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Investment Advisory Agreement Approval
 
The Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) requires that initial approval of, as well as the continuation of, a fund’s investment advisory agreement must be specifically approved (1) by the vote of the trustees or by a vote of the shareholders of the fund, and (2) by the vote of a majority of the trustees who are not parties to the investment advisory agreement or “interested persons” of any party (the “Independent Trustees”), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. In connection with such approvals, the fund’s trustees must request and evaluate, and the investment adviser is required to furnish, such information as may be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the investment advisory agreement.
 
The Board of Trustees (the “Board” or the “Trustees”, as appropriate) calls and holds one or more meetings each year that are dedicated, in whole or in part, to considering whether to renew the investment advisory agreement between Schwab Capital Trust (the “Trust”) and Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (“CSIM”) (the “Agreement”) with respect to the existing funds in the Trust, including Schwab Fundamental US Large Company Index Fund, Schwab Fundamental US Small-Mid Company Index Fund, Schwab Fundamental International Large Company Index Fund, Schwab Fundamental International Small-Mid Company Index Fund and Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets Index Fund (the “Funds”), and to review certain other agreements pursuant to which CSIM provides investment advisory services to certain other registered investment companies. In preparation for the meeting(s), the Board requests and reviews a wide variety of materials provided by CSIM, including information about CSIM’s affiliates, personnel and operations. The Board also receives extensive data provided by third parties. This information is in addition to the detailed information about the Funds that the Board reviews during the course of each year, including information that relates to fund operations and fund performance. The Independent Trustees receive advice from independent counsel to the Independent Trustees, including a memorandum regarding the responsibilities of trustees for the approval of investment advisory agreements. In addition, the Independent Trustees meet in executive session outside the presence of fund management and participate in question and answer sessions with representatives of CSIM.
 
The Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, considered information specifically relating to its consideration of the continuance of the Agreement with respect to the Funds at meetings held on April 27, 2009, and May 15, 2009, and approved the renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds for an additional one year term at the meeting held on May 15, 2009. The Board’s approval of the Agreement with respect to the Funds was based on consideration and evaluation of a variety of specific factors discussed at these meetings and at prior meetings, including:
 
1.  the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Funds under the Agreement, including the resources of CSIM and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds;
 
2.  each Fund’s investment performance and how it compared to that of certain other comparable mutual funds;
 
3.  each Fund’s expenses and how those expenses compared to those of certain other comparable mutual funds;
 
4.  the profitability of CSIM and its affiliates, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (“Schwab”), with respect to each Fund, including both direct and indirect benefits accruing to CSIM and its affiliates; and
 
5.  the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Funds grow and whether fee levels in the Agreement reflect those economies of scale for the benefit of Fund investors.
 
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Board considered the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by CSIM to the Funds and the resources of CSIM and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds. In this regard, the Trustees evaluated, among other things, CSIM’s personnel, experience, track record and compliance program. The Trustees also considered investments in CSIM’s mutual fund infrastructure and the fact that Schwab’s wide range of products, services, and channel alternatives such as free advice, investment and research tools, Internet access, and an array of account features that benefit the Funds and their shareholders. The Trustees also considered Schwab’s excellent reputation as a full service brokerage firm and its overall financial condition. Finally, the Trustees considered that many of the Funds’ shareholders are also brokerage clients of Schwab. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the nature, extent and quality of services provided by CSIM to the Funds and the resources of CSIM and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds.
 
Fund Performance. The Board considered Fund performance in determining whether to renew the Agreement. Specifically, the Trustees considered each Fund’s performance relative to a peer group and peer category of other mutual funds and appropriate indices/benchmarks, in light of total return, yield, if applicable, and market trends. As part of this review, the Trustees considered the composition of the peer
 
 
 
66 


 

group and peer category, selection criteria and the reputation of the third party who prepared the peer group and peer category analysis. In evaluating the performance of each Fund, the Trustees considered both risk and shareholder risk expectations for such Fund and the appropriateness of the benchmark used to compare the performance of each Fund. The Trustees further considered the level of Fund performance in the context of its review of Fund expenses and adviser profitability discussed below. Following such evaluation the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the performance of the Funds supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds.
 
Fund Expenses. With respect to the Funds’ expenses, the Trustees considered the rate of compensation called for by the Agreement, and each Fund’s net operating expense ratio, in each case, in comparison to those of other comparable mutual funds, such peer groups and comparisons having been selected and calculated by an independent third party. The Trustees considered the effects of CSIM’s and Schwab’s historical practice of voluntarily waiving management and other fees to prevent total Fund expenses from exceeding a specified cap. The Trustees also considered a commitment by CSIM and Schwab to (i) reduce the specified expense cap of each Fund; and (ii) extend the specified expense cap of each Fund for so long as CSIM serves as the adviser to such Fund. The Trustees also considered fees charged by CSIM to other mutual funds and to other types of accounts, such as wrap accounts, but, with respect to such other types of accounts, accorded less weight to such comparisons due to the different legal, regulatory, compliance and operating features of mutual funds as compared to these other types of accounts. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the expenses of the Funds are reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds.
 
Profitability. With regard to profitability, the Trustees considered the compensation flowing to CSIM and its affiliates, directly or indirectly. In this connection, the Trustees reviewed management’s profitability analyses, together with certain commentary thereon from an independent accounting firm. The Trustees also considered any other benefits derived by CSIM from its relationship with the Funds, such as whether, by virtue of its management of the Funds, CSIM obtains investment information or other research resources that aid it in providing advisory services to other clients. The Trustees considered whether the varied levels of compensation and profitability under the Agreement and other service agreements were reasonable and justified in light of the quality of all services rendered to each Fund by CSIM and its affiliates. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the profitability of CSIM is reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds.
 
Economies of Scale. The Trustees considered the existence of any economies of scale and whether those are passed along to a Fund’s shareholders through a graduated investment advisory fee schedule or other means, including any fee waivers by CSIM and its affiliates. In this regard, and consistent with their consideration of Fund expenses, the Trustees considered that CSIM and Schwab have previously committed resources to minimize the effects on shareholders of diseconomies of scale during periods when fund assets were relatively small through their contractual expense waivers. For example, such diseconomies of scale may particularly affect newer funds or funds with investment strategies that are from time to time out of favor, but shareholders may benefit from the continued availability of such funds at subsidized expense levels. The Trustees also considered existing contractual investment advisory fee schedules that include lower fees at higher graduated asset levels. Based on this evaluation the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the funds obtain reasonable benefit from economies of scale.
 
In the course of their deliberations, the Trustees did not identify any particular information or factor that was all important or controlling. Based on the Trustees’ deliberation and their evaluation of the information described above, the Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, approved the continuation of the Agreement with respect to the Funds and concluded that the compensation under the Agreement with respect to the Funds is fair and reasonable in light of such services and expenses and such other matters as the Trustees have considered to be relevant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment.

Glossary
 
 
asset allocation The practice of dividing a portfolio among different asset classes, with each asset class assigned a particular percentage.
 
asset class A group of securities with similar structure and basic characteristics. Stocks, bonds and cash are the three main examples of asset classes.
 
beta A historical measure of an investment’s volatility relative to a market index (usually the S&P 500{R}). The index is defined as having a beta of 1.00. Investments with a beta higher than 1.00 have been more volatile than the index; those with a beta of less than 1.00 have been less volatile.
 
bond A security representing a loan from the investor to the issuer. A bond typically pays interest at a fixed rate (the “coupon rate”) until a specified date (the “maturity date”), at which time the issuer returns the money borrowed (“principal” or “face value”) to the bondholder. Because of their structure, bonds are sometimes called “fixed income securities” or “debt securities.”
 
An individual bond is subject to the credit risk of the issuer. Changes in interest rates can affect a bond’s market value prior to call or maturity. There is no guarantee that a bond’s yield to call or maturity will provide a positive return over the rate of inflation.
 
bond fund A bond fund is subject to the same credit, interest rate, and inflation risks as bonds. In addition, a bond fund incurs ongoing fees and expenses. A bond fund’s net asset value will fluctuate with the price of the underlying bonds and the portfolio turnover activity; return of principal is not guaranteed.
 
cap, capitalization See “market cap.”
 
capital gain, capital loss the difference between the amount paid for an investment and its value at a later time. If the investment has been sold, the capital gain or loss is considered a realized gain or loss. If the investment is still held, the gain or loss is still “on paper” and is considered unrealized.
 
earnings growth rate For a mutual fund, the average yearly rate at which the earnings of the companies in the fund’s portfolio have grown, measured over the past five years.
 
earnings per share (EPS) A company’s earnings, or net income, for the past 12 months, divided by the number of shares outstanding.
 
expense ratio The amount that is taken from a mutual fund’s assets each year to cover the fund’s operating expenses. An expense ratio of 0.50% means that a fund’s expenses amount to half of one percent of its average net assets a year.
 
market cap, market capitalization The value of a company as determined by the total value of all shares of its stock outstanding.
 
median market cap The midpoint of the range of market caps of the stocks held by a fund. There are different ways of calculating median market cap. With a simple median, half of the stocks in the fund’s portfolio would be larger than the median, and half would be smaller. With a weighted median (the type that is calculated for these funds), half of the fund’s assets are invested in stocks that are larger than the median market cap, and half in stocks that are smaller.
 
net asset value (NAV) The value of one share of a mutual fund. NAV is calculated by taking the fund’s total assets, subtracting liabilities, and dividing by the number of shares outstanding.
 
outstanding shares, shares outstanding When speaking of a company or mutual fund, indicates all shares currently held by investors.
 
price-to-book ratio (P/B)  The market price of a company’s stock compared with its “book value.” A mutual fund’s P/B is the weighted average of the P/B of all stocks in the fund’s portfolio.
 
price-to-earnings ratio (P/E)  The market price of a company’s stock compared with earnings over the past year. A mutual fund’s P/E is the weighted average of the P/E of all stocks in the fund’s portfolio.
 
return on equity (ROE) The average yearly rate of return for each dollar of investors’ money, measured over the past five years.
 
stock A share of ownership, or equity, in the issuing company.
 
total return The percentage that an investor would have earned or lost on an investment in the fund assuming dividends and distributions were reinvested.
 
weighted average For mutual funds, an average that gives the same weight to each security as the security represents in the fund’s portfolio.
 
yield The income paid out by an investment, expressed as a percentage of the investment’s market value.

All fund and index figures on this page assume dividends and distributions were reinvested. Index figures do not include trading and management costs, which would lower performance. Indices are unmanaged, and you cannot invest in them directly. Performance results less than one year are not annualized.
Fund expenses may have been partially absorbed by CSIM and Schwab. Without these reductions, the fund’s returns would have been lower. These returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares.

From the President
 

MERK PHOTO
 
Randall W. Merk is President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. and the funds covered in this report. He joined the firm in 2002 and has held a variety of executive positions at Schwab.

 
Dear Shareholder,
 
In the past year, volatile prices throughout the global financial marketplace and a recessionary economy have been among the numerous challenges affecting investment conditions and investor sentiment. While portfolios may still be below peak values reached in 2007, many have recovered substantially from lows touched as markets dropped in 2008 and early 2009. In particular, prices of many equity and fixed income securities declined precipitously toward the end of 2008 and the beginning of 2009. Since March of 2009, however, improvements in the financial markets and diminished concern over the depth and duration of the economic recession led to a broad-market recovery, with the prices of many equity securities rebounding from earlier lows.
 
During the reporting period, we made a number of improvements to the Schwab Funds family of mutual funds making it cheaper and easier for our clients to invest in Schwab Funds. On May 5, 2009, we lowered expenses on Schwab Equity Index Funds and consolidated share classes for Schwab equity and bond funds. Each Schwab equity and bond fund now offers one low fund expense to investors regardless of how much they invest, with a low $100 minimum investment. Our goal is to make investing easier and more affordable for our clients and the advisors who serve them.
 
For information on the investment environment and the performance of individual funds contained in this book, please see the fund managers’ discussion and analysis in the following pages of this report.
 
If you have any questions about Schwab Funds, we are always available at 1-800-435-4000, while additional resources may be found on Schwab.com
 
Thank you for investing with us.
 
Sincerely,
 
-s- Randall W. Merk
 
 
Investors should consider carefully information contained in the prospectus, including investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses. You can request a prospectus by calling Schwab at 800-435-4000. Please read the prospectus carefully before investing.

The Investment Environment
 
 
 
Investment conditions in the global financial market improved markedly in the second half of the reporting period, from the end of March through October, as concern over the economic recession and financial crisis ebbed. The first four months of the period, from November through February, were generally bearish; equity prices were driven down across the board as investors pulled back from the markets amidst poor macroeconomic data and pessimism over the markets’ ability to mount swift recoveries. Since March of 2009, however, both domestic and international markets experienced recovery, which helped to reduce earlier losses and produce positive 12-month returns in many cases. On the fixed income side, yields remained low on government backed securities, but leading broad market municipal and taxable bond indices were positive for the period.
 
Major economic indicators, such as Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and unemployment, continued to demonstrate that a consistent recovery has yet to materialize across many measures of the economy. GDP—the output of goods and services produced by labor and property located in the United States—rose 2.8% in the third quarter of 2009, after declining 0.7% in the prior quarter. The third quarter GDP gain was primarily attributable to increases in personal consumption expenditures, exports, private inventory investment, and government spending, according to the Bureau of Economic Analysis. The U.S. unemployment rate increased from 6.7% in November of 2008 to 10.2% in October of 2009. Sales of existing homes were a bright spot toward the end of the period, rising 9.4% in September, fueled by tax credits for new home buyers and favorable prices.
 
The returns of the S&P 500 Index, which is usually seen as a bellwether for financial markets, were positive. For the 12-month reporting period ending October 31, 2009, the S&P 500 Index returned 9.80%. In the index, Information Technology was the strongest performing sector, followed by Consumer Discretionary and Materials. Financials was the weakest sector, followed by Utilities and Industrials. In general, large-cap stocks outperformed small-cap as evidenced by the Russell 1000 Index, which returned 11.20%, compared with the Russell 2000 Index, which returned 6.46%. Looking at the broad market, growth outperformed value; the Russell 3000 Growth Index returned 17.04%, while the Russell 3000 Value Index returned 4.56%. Internationally, the MSCI EAFE Index returned 28.41%, while the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (Net)* returned 64.13%.
 
On the fixed income side, yields were low throughout the period for U.S. Treasury securities, especially those with the shortest maturities. The Barclays Capital U.S. Short Treasury: 9-12 Months returned 1.75%. The broad taxable bond market fared better, benefiting from price recovery on mortgage-backed securities and other assets that were out of favor with investors during the darkest moments of the financial crisis; the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index returned 13.79%. Returns were also positive in the tax free bond market—the Barclays Capital General Muni Bond Index returned 13.60%. The Federal Open Market Committee reaffirmed on November 4, 2009 that it would continue to hold interest rates at a target range of 0 to 0.25%.

Schwab Premier Equity Fund®
 
 
The Schwab Premier Equity Fund returned 6.01% during the period, underperforming the benchmark S&P 500 Index, which returned 9.80%. The fund will invest in a stock only if the stock is rated “A” or “B” by Schwab Equity Ratings at the time of purchase. During certain periods, the requirement to purchase only stocks rated “A” or “B” may result in differences in holdings between the fund and the benchmark. The fund’s use of Schwab Equity Ratings, which emphasizes factors such as strong fundamentals and attractive valuations, led the fund to invest in stocks that were not favored by investors during the period. For more information on the fund’s objective and strategy, please see the fund’s prospectus.
 
From a sector perspective, the fund underperformed versus the benchmark both due to its allocations and its stock selections. The primary allocation losses came from slightly underweighting the Industrials, Information Technology and Telecommunication Services sectors. A slight underweight to Financials helped the fund relative to the benchmark, as this was the weakest performing sector in the benchmark index. Weak stock selection in Industrials, Information Technology and Consumer Staples stocks also pulled down the fund’s return versus the benchmark. But sound stock selection in the Energy, Materials and Financials sectors helped the fund recover some ground.
 
In terms of market capitalization, the fund was overweight in companies with smaller market caps and conversely underweight to larger firms versus the benchmark. During the period, the fund’s overall smaller market cap was mostly a result of its use of Schwab Equity Ratings, as the ratings generally favored smaller firms for much of the period. These allocations were solidly positive for the fund’s return versus the benchmark. However, weak stock selection, especially among firms below $5 billion in market cap, offset the gains from allocation.
 
In terms of valuation, a similar if less dramatic pattern emerged: the fund’s overweight to lower-valued stocks helped its return versus the benchmark, as these groups were generally the better performing stocks in the benchmark during the period. However, the fund’s stock selection, especially among stocks that lost money over the 12-month period, was weak, again overcoming the allocation gains.
 
Among individual stocks, out-of-benchmark holdings AMR and NCR were the largest single-stock detractors from return. Underweights to Bank of America Corp. and Apple, Inc. also detracted from the fund’s performance versus the benchmark. However, underweights to Citigroup, Inc. and General Electric Co. both contributed positively.

Schwab Core Equity Fundtm
 
 
The Schwab Core Equity Fund returned 8.11% for the period, underperforming the benchmark S&P 500 Index, which returned 9.80%. The fund’s use of Schwab Equity Ratings, which emphasizes factors such as strong fundamentals and attractive valuations, led the fund to invest in stocks that were not favored by investors during the period. For more information on the fund’s objective and strategy, please see the fund’s prospectus.
 
During the period, the fund’s managers made certain stock selection and allocation decisions based on the Schwab Equity Ratings methodology which caused the fund to underperform the benchmark S&P 500 Index. In particular, stock selection in Consumer Staples and Consumer Discretionary detracted from performance relative to the benchmark, while selection in and an overweight allocation to Industrials also hurt relative performance. However, stock selection in Financials and Energy provided some positive contributions among sectors.
 
In terms of market capitalization, the fund benefited from its overweight to companies with smaller market caps (stocks less than $5 billion in market cap). During the period, the fund’s overall smaller market cap was mostly a result of its use of Schwab Equity Ratings, as the ratings generally favored smaller firms for much of the period. However, stock selection among smaller firms detracted from performance. Selection among large-company stocks generally benefited the fund. From a valuation perspective, the fund was well allocated, as it typically owned more of the lower-valued types of stocks that performed well in the benchmark. However, some of the specific low-valued firms chosen underperformed, pulling the fund’s return below the benchmark.
 
In terms of specific stock selection, the fund’s overweights to Raytheon Co., Lockheed Martin Corp., Valero Energy Corp. and Cephalon, Inc. generated negative returns during the period. However, avoiding Citigroup, Inc. and General Electric Co. benefited the fund, as the share prices of these firms declined significantly during the period. Overweights to IBM and Hewlett-Packard Co. also helped performance relative to the benchmark.

Schwab Dividend Equity Fundtm
 
 
The Schwab Dividend Equity Fund returned 5.62% for the period, underperforming the benchmark S&P 500 Index, which returned 9.80%. The fund uses Schwab Equity Ratings to aid its stock selection. The fund utilizes a dividend focus in stock selection, and during certain periods, the focus on dividend-paying stocks may result in differences between the fund and the benchmark. For more information on the fund’s objective and strategy, please see the fund’s prospectus.
 
As part of its strategy to provide dividends to investors, the fund was overweight to higher-dividend paying stocks and underweight to zero- and lower-dividend paying stocks relative to the benchmark. During the period, the pattern of returns for dividend-paying stocks within the benchmark was generally opposite the fund’s allocations. That is, benchmark stocks with zero dividends were significant outperformers, while stocks with the highest dividends actually lost value during the period. This pattern of returns was a significant element in the fund’s overall underperformance versus the benchmark during the period. Fortunately, stock selection among the highest dividend-paying stocks was positive and added some value. As of October 31, 2009, the fund’s dividend yield was 2.82% versus 2.10% for the benchmark.
 
Among sectors, the fund lost the most value versus the benchmark in the Information Technology sector, the strongest performing sector in the benchmark. The fund’s stocks in this group underperformed their benchmark counterparts, which gained over 31% during the quarter. The fund also lost value in this sector due to its underweight; typically, Information Technology stocks pay lower dividends than stocks in some other sectors, so the fund’s dividend focus tends to underweight this area. This one sector accounted for a majority of the fund’s underperformance from a sector view. Further selection losses came in the Financials, Consumer Discretionary, Consumer Staples, and Health Care sectors. The fund added value from its selections in the Materials and Telecommunication Services sectors and an overweight to Utilities, but not enough to offset the lag in Information Technology.
 
In terms of market capitalization, the fund benefited from its overweight to companies with smaller market caps (stocks less than $5 billion in market cap) and its underweight to larger firms. During the period, the fund’s overall smaller market cap was mostly a result of its use of Schwab Equity Ratings, as the ratings generally favored smaller firms for much of the period. However, stock selection among smaller firms detracted from performance. Selection among large-company stocks generally benefited the fund. From a valuation perspective, the fund was well allocated, as it typically owned more of the lower-valued types of stocks that performed well in the benchmark. However, some of the specific low-valued firms chosen underperformed, pulling the fund’s return below the benchmark.
 
In terms of overall stock selection, avoiding Apple Computer, Inc. and Google, Inc. detracted from performance relative to the benchmark, as did underweights to Bank of America Corp. and SunTrust Banks, Inc. Overweighting D.R. Horton, Inc. and Occidental Petroleum Corp. added value versus the benchmark, as did avoiding Citigroup, Inc. and significantly underweighting General Electric Co.

Schwab Large-Cap Growth Fundtm
 
 
The Schwab Large-Cap Growth Fund returned 11.36% during the period, underperforming the benchmark Russell 1000 Growth Index, which returned 17.51%. The fund uses Schwab Equity Ratings (SER) to aid its stock selection. During the period, the growth stock performance was tempered by SER’s valuation and fundamental factors, resulting in fund underperformance due to stock selection within the growth area. For more information on the fund’s objective and strategy, please see the fund’s prospectus.
 
Among sectors, the fund struggled with its stock selections in several sectors. The biggest losses were sustained in the Consumer Staples sector, but the Consumer Discretionary, Health Care, and Industrials sectors also detracted. Underweighting the Materials sector also reduced the fund’s return versus the benchmark, as this group benefited from investors’ expectations for economic recovery. Good selections among Materials sector stocks and an underweight to Consumer Staples helped the fund but not enough to overcome the negatives.
 
From a valuation perspective, the fund’s stock selections were a cause of the fund’s underperformance relative to the benchmark. Generally, the fund was well allocated across the various valuation groups; with some exceptions, lower-valued stocks tended to be the stronger performers in the benchmark during the period, and the fund’s allocations across these groups provided some benefit. However, stock selection across these groups was mostly negative. As mentioned above, the fund’s use of Schwab Equity Ratings, which emphasizes factors such as strong fundamentals and attractive valuations, led to investment in stocks that were not favored by investors during the period.
 
In terms of overall stock selection, overweighting Cephalon, Inc., General Mills, Inc., Lockheed Martin Corp. and Apollo Group, Inc. detracted from performance relative to the benchmark. Some positive performance contributions were generated by overweighting BMC Software, Inc., and underweighting Monsanto Co., Abbott Laboratories, and Johnson & Johnson.

Schwab Small-Cap Equity Fundtm
 
 
The Schwab Small-Cap Equity Fund returned 5.65% during the period, underperforming the benchmark Russell 2000 Index, which returned 6.46%. The fund uses Schwab Equity Ratings to aid its stock selection. For more information on the fund’s objective and strategy, please see the fund’s prospectus.
 
During the period, on July 1, 2009, the fund changed its benchmark from the S&P Small-Cap 600 Index to the Russell 2000 Index. From October 31, 2008 through June 30, 2009, the fund returned -4.31% and its original benchmark, the S&P SmallCap 600 Index, returned -5.66%. From July 1, 2009 through October 31, 2009, the fund returned 10.40% and its new benchmark, the Russell 2000 Index, returned 11.18%. The following commentary focuses on the fund’s returns versus its new benchmark, the Russell 2000 Index.
 
A portion of the fund’s underperformance was attributable to the fund’s slightly larger market cap relative to the Russell 2000 Index, where companies with smaller market caps generally performed better. The fund was significantly overweight to firms larger than $1.5 billion in market cap, and these allocations were the most costly to returns. An underweight to firms below $300 million in market cap also detracted from the fund’s performance. However, good stock selection among these market capitalization groups, especially among stocks between $1.5 billion and $3 billion in market cap, mitigated the losses. It is important to note that much of the difference in market cap between the fund and the Russell 2000 Index was due to the change in benchmark, as the S&P SmallCap 600 Index has a larger overall market cap than the Russell 2000 Index.
 
Among sectors, results were quite different from the market cap view, as the fund’s allocations among sectors added value while its stock selections detracted. The fund’s stock selections were particularly weak in the Consumer Discretionary, Health Care and Materials sectors. Better selection results were generated in the Industrials and Financials sectors. Also, the fund gained some value by overweighting Consumer Discretionary and underweighting Financials stocks, but not enough to overcome the overall weak results from selection.
 
From a valuation perspective, the fund gained value from overweighting stocks with low valuations, as these were the strongest performing valuation group in the Russell 2000 Index. However, its selections among these lower-valued firms detracted from its performance relative to the benchmark. The fund’s selections among more highly-valued firms were positive, however.
 
In terms of specific stock selection versus the Russell 2000 Index, the fund’s overweights to SVB Financial Group, W&T Offshore, Inc., and Conmed Corp. were the major detractors. Overweights to some solidly positive performing stocks like Emcor Group, Inc., Veeco Instruments, Inc., and Sybase, Inc. helped offset the detractors.

Schwab Hedged Equity Fundtm
 
 
The Schwab Hedged Equity Fund returned 7.28% for the period, underperforming the benchmark S&P 500 Index, which returned 9.80%. The fund’s principal investment objective is long-term capital appreciation over market cycles with lower volatility than the broad equity market. The fund pursues a long/short strategy using Schwab Equity Ratings. The fund typically takes 100% long positions in higher-rated securities that are expected to outperform the market, and 20% to 60% short positions in lower-rated securities that are expected to underperform the market. In addition to Schwab Equity Ratings, a number of other essential factors also constitute the basis for portfolio construction and optimization. For more information on the fund’s objective and strategy, please see the fund’s prospectus.
 
During the period, the fund generally achieved its objective of long-term capital appreciation with lower volatility, but its total return was reduced by the short positions. Using beta, a standard measure of volatility, during the period the fund generated a beta of 0.49 versus a beta of 1.00 for the S&P 500 Index, thus providing about one-half the volatility of the market. The use of short positions was critical to this lower volatility, but the contribution of short positions to the fund’s return was negative during the period. The long positions, however, outperformed the S&P 500 Index, helping the fund to meet its overall objective.
 
Among sector allocations, the fund lost the most value by underweighting the Consumer Discretionary, Information Technology and Materials sectors, the benchmark’s strongest performing sectors during the period. The fund also experienced losses due to the strongly positive return of its short positions in several sectors, notably in the Consumer Discretionary, Materials, Health Care and Financials sectors. Note that the fund gains from its short positions when the shorts go down in value, not up. These losses were somewhat balanced by good long-side stock selections in Energy, Industrials and Consumer Staples, as well as some negative returns of the fund’s short positions in Energy and Industrials.
 
Historically, the fund’s long- and short-side positions have tended to be in firms of smaller market capitalization than those in the benchmark, and that was true during the period. The effect on performance of this smaller-firm tilt was pronounced during this period, because smaller firms were the strongest performers in the benchmark. The fund had most of its short positions in firms below $5 billion in market cap, and these positions were a significant contributor to the fund’s overall underperformance versus the benchmark. Additional losses in these smaller firms came from the long-side holdings, which significantly underperformed the benchmark’s stocks. These losses were reduced quite a bit by the fund’s overweight to this market capitalization group. Conversely, the fund’s underweight to the very largest firms, those above $100 billion in market cap, helped its return versus the benchmark.
 
In terms of stock selection, long-side positions that detracted the most from performance relative to the benchmark were overweights to SunTrust Banks, Inc. and W&T Offshore, Inc.; avoiding Apple, Inc. also detracted from performance. Major short-side detractors were Fidelity National Financial and Auxilium Pharmaceuticals. Positive stock contributions came from long positions in BMC Software, Inc., 3Com Corp. and Gap, Inc. Short positions in Spirit Aerosystems Holdings and Psychiatric Solutions also provided some upside performance.

The Hedged Equity Fund’s long positions can decline in value at the same time the value of its shorted stocks increases, thereby increasing the potential for loss. The potential loss associated with short positions is much greater than the original value of the securities sold. The use of borrowing and short sales may cause the fund to have higher expenses than those of equity funds that do not use such techniques.

Schwab Financial Services Fundtm
 
 
The Schwab Financial Services Fund returned -1.10% during the period, outperforming the benchmark S&P 1500 SuperComposite Financials Sector Index, which returned -7.04%. The fund uses Schwab Equity Ratings to aid its stock selection. For more information on the fund’s objective and strategy, please see the fund’s prospectus.
 
Relative to the benchmark, outperformance was attributable to sub-industry allocation within the financial services industry, as the use of Schwab Equity Ratings pushed the fund’s allocations into generally favorable areas. The fund was underweight in poorly performing industry groups and overweight in better performing industry groups. In particular, an underweight to the poorly performing Diversified Financial Services sub-industry and an overweight to Asset Management & Custody Banks helped returns. The major detractor in this area was an overweight to the poorly performing Regional Banks sub-industry.
 
From a valuation perspective, benchmark stocks with high valuations performed very poorly, especially those with very high Price/Earnings (P/E) ratios and those with negative P/E ratios (stocks which have lost money over the 12-month period). The fund gained from its allocations relative to these poorly performing valuation groups, as it was solidly overweight to the stronger performing low-valued firms, those with the lowest P/E ratios.
 
From a market cap perspective the fund benefited from underweights to poorly performing large-cap stocks, which underperformed small-cap stocks during the reporting period. In fact, benchmark stocks between $100 and $150 billion in market were down more than 60% during the period, and the fund’s average weight of about one-half the benchmark’s weight in these stocks added to return. An overweight to firms below $5 billion in market cap was also helpful.
 
When looking at stock selection, the fund gained from many of its positions. Notable positive contributions relative to the benchmark came from overweighting Ameriprise Financial, Inc. and Northern Trust Corp. and underweighting Citigroup, Inc. and Bank of America Corp. Overweights to SunTrust Banks, Inc., Morgan Stanley and Popular Inc. were the major detractors from a specific stock perspective versus the benchmark.

Schwab Health Care Fundtm
 
 
The Schwab Health Care Fund returned 7.65% for the period, underperforming the benchmark Dow Jones World Health Care Index, which returned 10.75%. The fund uses Schwab Equity Ratings to aid its U.S. stock selection, and uses Schwab’s proprietary international stock research to aid its international stock selection. The fund’s use of Schwab Equity Ratings, which emphasizes factors such as strong fundamentals and attractive valuations, led the fund to invest in stocks that were not favored by investors during the period. For more information on the fund’s objective and strategy, please see the fund’s prospectus.
 
In April 2009, the fund expanded the universe of stocks available for investment by adopting as part of its strategy the ability to invest up to 25% of its net assets directly in the stocks of publicly traded companies located in countries other than the United States.
 
During the period, on July 1, 2009, the fund changed its benchmark from the S&P 1500 SuperComposite Health Care Sector Index to the Dow Jones World Health Care Index. From October 31, 2008 through June 30, 2009, the fund returned -0.38% and its original benchmark, the S&P 1500 SuperComposite Health Care Sector Index, returned 0.10%. From July 1, 2009 through October 31, 2009, the fund returned 8.06% and its new benchmark, the Dow Jones World Health Care Index, returned 10.61%. It is important to note that during the period non-U.S. stocks generally outperformed U.S. stocks. The following commentary focuses on the fund’s returns versus its new benchmark, the Dow Jones World Health Care Index.
 
Among country weights, the fund was significantly underweight to Switzerland, which is home to several large pharmaceutical firms; this underweight was one of the largest contributors to underperformance versus the new benchmark during the period. Underweights to firms in the Eurozone, Japan and Australia also reduced the fund’s returns versus the new benchmark.
 
From an industry perspective, the fund managed to add a small amount of value from its industry allocations. Outside the U.S., the fund was generally underweight to Pharmaceuticals, Biotechnology and Health Care Equipment & Services firms, all of which helped its return. The fund also gained from overweighting the Health Care Equipment & Services firms in the U.S., as these firms generally performed well during the period.
 
In terms of specific stock selection, the largest detractors relative to the benchmark were an overweight to Cephalon, Inc. and underweights to Medtronic, Inc. and Wyeth. Overweights to McKesson HBOC, Inc., Express Scripts, Inc., and Cigna Corp. all produced positive returns versus the new benchmark.

The Schwab International Core Equity Fund returned 25.98% for the period underperforming the benchmark MSCI EAFE Index, which returned 28.41%.
 
Relative to the benchmark, stock selection in Energy, Consumer Discretionary and Information Technology sectors added value during the period. Underweighting the relatively weaker performing Utilities sector also helped the fund’s return versus the benchmark. Stock selection in Consumer Staples and Materials detracted from returns, as did an underweight to the Financials sector, a relatively strong group in the benchmark.
 
From a market capitalization perspective, the fund’s overweight to firms with market caps below $10 billion contributed to its returns, but its stock selections in many of these smaller firms detracted from performance. However, the fund benefitted from its investments in larger firms, especially those above $100 billion in market cap. From a regional perspective, stock selection in Europe was a notable contributor to return, while selection in Asia was the most significant detractor.
 
Most of the fund’s underperformance relative to its benchmark occurred due to fair valuation of the fund’s holdings on the last trading day of the current and prior period.**

**The fund has adopted procedures to fair value international securities while the indexes under discussion have not. By fair valuing securities whose prices may have been affected by events occurring after the close of trading in their respective international markets, each fund seeks to establish prices that investors might expect to realize upon the current sales of these securities. This methodology is designed to deter “arbitrage” market timers, who seek to exploit delays between the change in the value of a fund’s portfolio holdings and the net asset value of the fund’s shares, and seeks to help ensure that the prices at which the fund’s shares are purchased and redeemed are fair and do not result in dilution of shareholder interest or other harm to shareholders. It is conducted every day, but the daily changes are not always significant enough to affect fund performance. Please see financial note 2 in this report for more information.

 Style Assessment4
 
(STYLE BOX)
 
All figures on this page assume dividends and distributions were reinvested. Index figures do not include trading and management costs, which would lower performance. Indices are unmanaged, and you cannot invest in them directly. Performance results less than one year are not annualized.
 
The Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe, Australasia, Far East Index (Gross) (MSCI EAFE Index®) is a free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure market equity performance in 22 developed market countries, excluding the U.S. and Canada. Investors cannot invest directly in any index and index figures do not include trading and management costs.
 
1  Fund expenses may have been partially absorbed by CSIM and Schwab. Without these reductions, the fund’s returns would have been lower. These returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares.
 
2  Source for category information: Morningstar, Inc.
 
3  As stated in the prospectus. Net Expense: Expenses reduced by a contractual fee waiver in effect for so long as CSIM serves as adviser to the fund. Gross Expense: Does not reflect the effect of contractual fee waivers. For actual ratios during the period, refer to the financial highlights section of the financial statements.
 
4  Source: Morningstar, Inc. This style assessment is the result of evaluating the fund based on a ten-factor model for value and growth characteristics. The fund’s market capitalization placement is determined by the geometric mean of its holdings’ market capitalizations. The assessment reflects the fund’s portfolio as of 10/31/09, which may have changed since then, and is not a precise indication of risk or performance—past, present, or future.
 
5  On October 7, 2009, the Investor Share class, Select Share class and Institutional Share class were combined into a single class of shares of the fund. The performance and financial history of the fund are that of the fund’s former Institutional Shares. Accordingly, the past performance shown is that of the fund’s former Institutional Shares.

Fund Expenses (Unaudited)
 
 Examples for a $1,000 Investment
 
As a fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: transaction costs, such as redemption fees, and ongoing costs, such as management fees, transfer agent and shareholder services fees, and other fund expenses.
 
The expense examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing cost (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare this cost with the ongoing cost of investing in other mutual funds. These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested for six-months beginning May 1, 2009 and held through October 31, 2009.
 
Actual Return lines in the table below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use this information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value ¸ $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for your fund or share class under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period”.
 
Hypothetical Return lines in the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed return of 5% per year before expenses. Because the return used is not an actual return, it may not be used to estimate the actual ending account value or expenses you paid for the period.
 
You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
 
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only, and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as redemption fees. If these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Prior to September 29, 2009, the Schwab Premier Equity Fund, Schwab Small-Cap Equity Fund, and Schwab Hedged Equity Fund each offered two share classes: Investor Shares and Select Shares. Effective September 28, 2009, all outstanding Investor Shares of the Schwab Premier Equity Fund, Schwab Small-Cap Equity Fund, and Schwab Hedged Equity Fund were converted into Select Shares and each fund no longer offers separate share classes. Immediately after, and as a result of the conversion, each shareholder of the Investor Shares became an owner of Select Shares of the same fund. Prior to October 8, 2009, the Schwab Dividend Equity Fund and Schwab Large-Cap Growth Fund each offered two share classes: Investor Shares and Select Shares. Effective October 7, 2009, all outstanding Investor Shares of the Schwab Dividend Equity Fund and Schwab Large-Cap Growth Fund were converted into Select Shares and each fund no longer offers separate share classes. Immediately after, and as a result of the conversion, each shareholder of the Investor Shares became an owner of Select Shares of the same fund. Prior to October 8, 2009, the Schwab International Core Equity Fund offered three share classes: Investor Shares, Select Shares and Institutional Shares. Effective October 7, 2009, all outstanding Investor Shares and Select Shares of the Schwab International Core Equity Fund were converted into Institutional Shares and the fund no longer offers separate share classes. Immediately after, and as a result of the conversion, each shareholder of the Investor Shares and Select Shares became an owner of Institutional Shares of the same fund. Schwab Core Equity Fund, Schwab Financial Services Fund, and Schwab Health Care Fund each offer one share class.
 
Shares are bought and sold (subject to a redemption fee, see Note 8) at closing net asset value (“NAV”), which is the price for all outstanding shares of a fund, as applicable. Each share has a par value of 1/1,000 of a cent, and the trustees may authorize the issuance of as many shares as necessary.
 
Each fund maintains its own account for purposes of holding assets and accounting, and is considered a separate entity for tax purposes. Within its account, each fund may also keep certain assets in segregated accounts, as required by securities law.
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the funds used in the preparation of financial statements. The accounting policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Financial Notes (continued)
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
(a) Security Valuation:
 
The funds value the securities in their portfolios every business day. The funds use the following policies to value various types of securities:
 
  •  Securities traded on an exchange or over-the-counter: valued at the closing value for the day, or, on days when no closing value has been reported, halfway between the most recent bid and asked quotes. Securities that are primarily traded on foreign exchanges are valued at the closing values of such securities on their respective exchanges with these values then translated into U.S. dollars at the valuation date exchange rate.
 
  •  Securities for which no quoted value is available: The Board of Trustees has adopted procedures to fair value each fund’s securities when market prices are not “readily available” or are unreliable. For example, a fund may fair value a security when a security is delisted or its trading is halted or suspended; when a security’s primary pricing source is unable or unwilling to provide a price or when a security’s primary trading market is closed during regular market hours. Each fund makes fair value determinations in good faith in accordance with the fund’s valuation procedures. The Board of Trustees regularly reviews fair value determinations made by the funds pursuant to the procedures.
 
  •  International Fair Valuation: The Board of Trustees has adopted procedures to fair value foreign securities that trade in markets that close prior to when the funds value their holdings. By fair valuing securities whose prices may have been affected by events occurring after the close of trading, each fund seeks to establish prices that investors might expect to realize upon the current sales of these securities. This methodology is designed to deter “arbitrage” market timers, who seek to exploit delays between the change in the value of a fund’s portfolio holdings and the net asset value of the fund’s shares, and seeks to help ensure that the prices at which the fund’s shares are purchased and redeemed are fair and do not result in dilution of shareholder interest or other harm to shareholders. When fair value pricing is used at the open or close of a reporting period, it may cause a temporary divergence between the return of a fund and that of its index or benchmark. Each fund makes fair value determinations in good faith in accordance with the fund’s valuation procedures. Due to the subjective and variable nature of fair value pricing, there can be no assurance that a fund could obtain the fair value assigned to the security upon the sale of such security. The Board of Trustees regularly reviews fair value determinations made by the funds pursuant to these procedures.
 
  •  Futures and Forwards contracts: valued at their settlement prices as of the close of their exchanges (for futures) or at a value based on that day’s exchange rates (for forwards).
 
  •  Short-term securities (60 days or less to maturity): valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.
 
  •  Underlying funds: valued at their respective net asset values as determined by those funds in accordance with the 1940 Act for a given day.
 
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures under GAAP, the funds disclose the fair value of their investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (level 3 measurements).
 
The funds adopted the authoritative guidance under GAAP on determining fair value when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased and identifying transactions that are not orderly. Accordingly, if the fund determines that either the volume and/or level of activity for an asset or liability has significantly decreased (from normal conditions for that asset or liability) or price quotations or observable inputs are not associated with orderly transactions, increased analysis and management judgment will be required to estimate fair value.
 
The guidance establishes three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:
 
  •  Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical securities. — Investments whose values are based on quoted market prices in active markets, and whose values are therefore classified as Level 1 prices, include active listed equities. The funds

       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
  do not adjust the quoted price for such investments, even in situations where the funds hold a large position and a sale could reasonably impact the quoted prices.
 
  •  Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) — Investments that trade in markets that are not considered to be active, but whose values are based on quoted market prices, dealer quotations or valuations provided by alternative pricing sources supported by observable inputs are classified as Level 2 Prices. These generally include certain U.S. government and sovereign obligations, most government agency securities, investment-grade corporate bonds, certain mortgage products, less liquid listed equities, and state, municipal and provincial obligations. In addition, international securities whose markets close hours before the funds value their holdings may require revised valuations due to significant movement in the U.S. markets occurring after the daily close of the foreign markets. The Board of Trustees has approved a vendor that would calculate revised valuations of international securities based on a number of factors that appear to correlate to the movements in the U.S. markets. As investments whose values are classified as Level 2 prices include positions that are not traded in active markets and/or are subject to transfer restrictions, valuations may be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, which are generally based on available market information.
 
  •  Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the funds’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) — Investments whose values are classified as Level 3 prices have significant unobservable inputs, as they may trade infrequently or not at all. When observable prices are not available for these securities, the funds use one or more valuation techniques for which sufficient and reliable data is available. The inputs used by the funds in estimating the value of Level 3 prices may include the original transaction price, quoted prices for similar securities or assets in active markets, completed or pending third-party transactions in the underlying investment or comparable issuers, and changes in financial ratios or cash flows. Level 3 prices may also be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, with the amount of such discount estimated by the funds in the absence of market information. Assumptions used by the funds due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting fair value and therefore the funds’ results of operations.
 
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the funds’ investments as of October 31, 2009:

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
(b) Portfolio Investments:
 
Derivatives: The funds may invest in futures contracts to reduce the effects of uninvested cash on performance or for other reasons. Futures contracts are instruments that represent an agreement between two parties that obligates one party to buy, and the other party to sell, specific instruments at an agreed upon price on a stipulated future date.
 
Because futures contracts carry inherent risks, a fund must give the broker a deposit of cash and/or securities (the “initial margin”) whenever it enters into the futures contract. The amount of the deposit may vary from one contract to another, but it is generally a percentage of the contract amount. Subsequent payments (“variation margin”) are made or received by a fund depending on daily fluctuations in the value of the futures contract and are accounted for as unrealized gains or losses. Futures are traded publicly on exchanges, and their market value changes daily.
 
The Schwab International Core Equity Fund may invest in forward currency contracts in connection with the purchase and sale of portfolio securities to minimize the uncertainty of changes in future foreign currency exchange rates. “Forwards”, as they are known, are contracts to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. Forwards are similar to futures except that they are not publicly traded, but are agreements directly between two parties and payments are generally only made between counterparties upon completion of the agreement.
 
Short Sale: The Schwab Hedged Equity Fund may sell securities short (sell securities it does not own). When it does so, the fund identifies assets worth at least 100% of the value of the short securities as collateral. If the market value of the short securities subsequently falls, the fund can realize a gain by closing the position. However, if the value rises, the fund typically would have to add to its collateral or close out its short position at a loss. The potential for losses associated with short positions is much greater than the original value of the securities sold short and may exceed amounts recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
 
Securities Lending: The funds may loan securities to certain brokers, dealers and other financial institutions that pay the funds negotiated fees. The funds receive cash, letters of credit or U.S. government securities as collateral on these loans. All of the cash collateral received is reinvested in high quality, short-term investments. The value of the collateral must be at least 102% of the market value of the loaned securities as of the first day of the loan, and at least 100% each day thereafter. If the value of the collateral falls below 100%, it will be adjusted the following day.
 
Repurchase Agreements: The funds may enter into repurchase agreements. In a repurchase agreement, a fund buys a security from another party (usually a financial institution) with the agreement that it be sold back in the future. The date, price and other conditions are all specified when the agreement is created.
 
The funds’ repurchase agreements will be fully collateralized by U.S. government securities or U.S. government agency securities. All collateral is held by the funds’ custodian (or, with tri-party agreements, the agent’s bank) and is monitored daily to ensure that its market value is at least equal to the repurchase price under the agreement.
 
(c) Security Transactions:
 
Security transactions are recorded as of the date the order to buy or sell the security is executed. Realized gains and losses from security transactions are based on the identified costs of the securities involved.
 
If the fund sells securities short, it records the proceeds received as an asset and the obligation to buy back the securities as a liability. At the time a short sale is initiated, the asset and liability are of equal value and effectively cancel each other out. Subsequently, the fund values the liability side of the transaction according to the market price of the securities sold short, and values the asset side according to the value of the proceeds. When the fund closes out a short position (buys the security), it records the outcome as a realized gain or loss. Interest and dividends accrued on securities sold short are recorded as an expense on the fund’s records.
 
Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are reported in U.S. dollars. For assets and liabilities held on a given date, the dollar value is based on market exchange rates in effect on that date. Transactions involving foreign currencies, including purchases, sales, income receipts and expense payments, are calculated using exchange rates in effect on the transaction

date. The funds do not isolate the portion of the fluctuations on investments resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rates from the fluctuations in market prices of investments held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.
 
Gains realized by the funds on the sale of securities in certain foreign countries may be subject to non-U.S. taxes. The funds record a liability based on unrealized gains to provide for potential non-U.S. taxes payable upon the sale of these securities.
 
When a fund closes out a futures or forwards position, it calculates the difference between the value of the position at the beginning and at the end of the contract, and records a realized gains or loss accordingly. A fund records the daily change in market value of futures, and also the change in the amount of margin deposit required (“due to/from broker”).
 
(d) Investment Income:
 
Interest income is recorded as it accrues. Dividends (net of foreign withholding tax) and distributions from portfolio securities and underlying funds are recorded on the date they are effective (the ex-dividend date), although the funds record certain foreign security dividends on the day they learn of the ex-dividend date.
 
(e) Expenses:
 
Expenses that are specific to a fund within the trust are charged directly to that fund. Expenses that are common to all funds within the trust generally are allocated among the funds in proportion to their average daily net assets.
 
For funds offering multiple share classes, prior to the collapsing of the classes, net investment income, other than class specific expenses, and realized and unrealized gains or losses, were allocated daily to each class in proportion to its average daily net assets.
 
(f) Distributions to Shareholders:
 
The funds make distributions from net investment income, if any, once a year, with the exception of Schwab Dividend Equity Fund which typically pays quarterly dividends. The funds make distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, once a year.
 
(g) Custody Credit:
 
Certain funds have an arrangement with their custodian bank, State Street Corp., under which the funds receive a credit for their uninvested cash balance to offset their custody fees and accounting fees. The credit amounts (if any) are disclosed in the Statement of Operations as a reduction to the funds’ operating expenses.
 
(h) Accounting Estimates:
 
The accounting policies described in this report conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Notwithstanding this, shareholders should understand that in order to follow these principles, fund management has to make estimates and assumptions that affect the information reported in the financial statements. It’s possible that once the results are known, they may turn out to be different from these estimates.
 
(i) Federal Income Taxes:
 
The funds intend to meet federal income and excise tax requirements for regulated investment companies. Accordingly, the funds distribute substantially all of their net investment income and realized net capital gains (if any) to their respective shareholders each year. As long as a fund meets the tax requirements, it is not required to pay federal income tax.
 
(j) Indemnification:
 
Under the funds’ organizational documents, the officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the funds. In addition, in the normal course of business the funds enter into contracts with their vendors and others that provide general indemnifications. The funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown

as this would involve future claims that may be made against the funds. However, based on experience, the funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.
 
3. Risk Factors:
 
Investing in the funds may involve certain risks, as discussed in the funds’ prospectus, including, but not limited to, those described below:
 
Stock markets rise and fall daily. As with any investment whose performance is tied to these markets, the value of your investment in the fund will fluctuate, which means that you could lose money.
 
The prices of equity securities rise and fall daily. These price movements may result from factors affecting individual companies, industries or the securities market as a whole. Individual companies may report poor results or be negatively affected by industry and/or economic trends and developments. The prices of securities issued by such companies may suffer a decline in response. In addition, the equity market tends to move in cycles which may cause stock prices to fall over short or extended periods of time.
 
Historically, small-cap stocks have been riskier than large-and mid-cap stocks. Stock prices of smaller companies may be based in substantial part on future expectations rather than current achievements and may move sharply, especially during market upturns and downturns. Small-cap companies themselves may be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic events than larger, more established companies. During a period when small-cap stocks fall behind other types of investments — large-cap stocks, for instance — a funds’ performance also will lag these investments.
 
The funds’ investment adviser makes investment decisions for the funds using a strategy based largely on historical information. There is no guarantee that a strategy based on historical information will produce the desired results in the future. In addition, if market dynamics change, the effectiveness of this strategy may be limited. Either of these risks may cause the funds to underperform its benchmark or other funds with a similar investment objective. The funds may invest in stocks that have not been ranked by Schwab’s research, and these stocks may underperform the funds’ stocks that have been ranked by Schwab’s research.
 
Certain funds may engage in short sale transactions in which a fund sells a security it does not own. To complete a short sale, a fund must borrow the security to deliver to the buyer. A fund is then obligated to replace the borrowed security by purchasing the security at the market price at the time of replacement. This price may be more or less than the price at which the security was sold by the fund and the fund will incur a loss if the price of the security sold short increases between the time of the short sale and the time the fund replaces the borrowed security.
 
If the price of the stock goes up after the short sale, the fund will lose money because it will have to pay more to replace the borrowed stock than it received when it sold the stock short. A fund’s use of short selling may reduce the risk of general equity market volatility but cannot completely eliminate that risk.
 
A fund’s long positions could decline in value at the same time that the value of the stocks sold short increase, thereby increasing the fund’s overall potential for loss. A fund’s short sales may result in a loss if the price of the borrowed securities rise and it costs more to replace the borrowed securities. In contrast to a fund’s long positions, for which the risk of loss is typically limited to the amount invested, the potential loss on a fund’s short positions is unlimited, in addition, any gain on a short sale is decreased, and any loss is increased, by the amount of any payment, dividend or interest that the fund may be required to pay with respect to the borrowed securities. Market factors may prevent a fund from closing out a short position at the most desirable time or at a favorable price. The lender of the borrowed securities may require a fund to return the securities on short notice, which may require the fund to purchase the borrowed securities at an unfavorable price, resulting in a loss.
 
Because funds’ certain investments are concentrated on issuers doing business in the same sector, an investment is exposed to that sector’s risks. The companies in which a fund invests are affected by many of the same factors, such as legislative or regulatory changes, intense competition for market share and other competitive challenges posed by joint ventures and mergers

between U.S. and foreign firms. In addition, a fund is subject to the risks that stocks of these companies may underperform other segments of the equity market or the stock market as a whole and are likely to have above-average volatility.
 
Certain funds are non-diversified, which means that they may invest in the securities of relatively few issuers. As a result, a single adverse economic or regulatory occurrence may have a more significant effect on a fund’s investment, and a fund may experience increased volatility.
 
A fund’s investments in securities of foreign issuers involve certain risks that are greater than those associated with investments in securities of U.S. issuers. These include risks of adverse changes in foreign economic, political, regulatory and other conditions, or changes in currency of exchange rates or exchange control regulations (including limitations on currency movements and exchanges). In certain countries, legal remedies available to investors may be more limited than those available with respect to investments in the United States. The securities of some foreign companies may be less liquid and, at times, more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. companies. A fund that invests in securities of foreign issuers may also experience more rapid or extreme changes in value as compared to a fund that invests solely in securities of U.S. companies because the securities markets of many foreign countries are relatively small, with a limited number of companies representing a small number of industries.
 
A fund may use derivatives (including futures) to enhance returns or hedge against market declines. A fund’s use of derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments and could cause a fund to lose more than the principal amount invested. In addition, investments in derivatives may involve leverage, which means a small percentage of assets invested in derivatives can have a disproportionately larger impact on a fund.
 
Please refer to the funds’ prospectus for a complete description of the principal risks of investing in the funds.

Charles Schwab &Co., Inc. (“Schwab”) is an affiliate of the investment adviser and was the trust’s transfer agent and shareholder services agent prior to July 1, 2009. Effective July 1, 2009, the trust has appointed Boston Financial Data Services, Inc. (“BFDS”) as transfer agent of the funds and adopted a Shareholder Servicing Plan (the “Plan”) on behalf of the funds. Pursuant to the Plan, the funds pay Schwab and other financial intermediaries to provide certain account maintenance, customer liaison and shareholder services to the funds’ shareholders holding shares of the funds through that financial intermediary. Under the Plan, Schwab is entitled to receive an annual fee payable monthly based on each funds’ average daily net assets of 0.25%.
 
Prior to July 1, 2009, for its transfer agent and shareholder services, Schwab was entitled to receive an annual fee payable monthly based on each fund’s average daily net assets described as follows:

Although these agreements specify certain fees for these services, CSIM and Schwab have made additional agreements with the funds to limit (“expense limitation”) the total expenses charged, excluding interest, taxes and certain non-routine expenses for so long as the investment adviser serves as the adviser to the funds, which may only be amended or terminated with the approval of the Fund’s Board of Trustees as follows:

4. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions (continued):
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
This practice is limited to funds that share the same investment adviser, trustees and officers. For the period ended October 31, 2009, each fund’s total aggregate security transactions with other Schwab Funds were as follows:
 
         
Schwab Premier Equity Fund
    $—  
Schwab Core Equity Fund
     
Schwab Dividend Equity Fund
     
Schwab Large-Cap Growth Fund
    2,199  
Schwab Small-Cap Equity Fund
     
Schwab Hedged Equity Fund
     
Schwab Financial Services Fund
     
Schwab Health Care Fund
     
Schwab International Core Equity Fund
    3,964  
 
Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, the funds may enter into interfund borrowing and lending transactions within the Schwab Funds. All loans are for temporary or emergency purposes only. The interest rate charged on the loan is the average of the overnight repurchase agreement rate and the short-term bank loan rate. The interfund lending facility is subject to the oversight and periodic review of the Board of Trustees of the Schwab Funds. There was no interfund borrowing or lending activity for the funds during the period.
 
5. Board of Trustees:
 
Trustees may include people who are officers and/or directors of the investment adviser or Schwab. Federal securities law limits the percentage of such “interested persons” who may serve on a trust’s board, and the trust was in compliance with these limitations throughout the report period. The trust did not pay any of these persons for their service as trustees, but it did pay non-interested persons (independent trustees), as noted in each fund’s Statement of Operations.
 
6. Borrowing from Banks:
 
The funds may borrow money from banks and custodians. The funds have custodian overdraft facilities, a committed line of credit of $150 million with State Street Corp., an uncommitted line of credit of $100 million with Bank of America, N.A. and an uncommitted line of credit of $50 million with Brown Brothers Harriman. The funds pay interest on the amounts they borrow at rates that are negotiated periodically. The funds also pay an annual fee to State Street Corp. for the committed line of credit.
 
There were no borrowings from the lines of credit by the funds during the period. However, certain funds utilized their overdraft facility and incurred interest expense, which is disclosed in the Statement of Operations. The interest expense is determined based on a negotiated rate above the current Federal Funds Rate.

The primary difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation or unrealized depreciation of investments is Passive Foreign Investment Companies (PFIC), Real Estate Investment Trusts (REIT), Partnerships and the tax deferral of losses on wash sale.

Distributions paid to shareholders are based on net investment income and net realized gains determined on a tax basis, which may differ from net investment income and net realized gains for financial reporting purposes. These differences are due primarily to differing treatment for items such as non-U.S. currency gains and losses, short-term capital gains and losses, capital losses related to wash sales, unrealized appreciation of certain investments in non-U.S. securities, and income on certain investments. The fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the year in which the net investment income and net realized gains are recorded by the funds for financial reporting purposes. The funds may also designate a portion of the amount paid to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for tax purposes.

As of October 31, 2009, management has reviewed the tax positions for open periods (for federal purpose, three years from the date of filing, and for state purposes, four years from the date of filing), as applicable to the funds, and has determined that no provision for income tax is required in the funds’ financial statements. The funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the period ended October 31, 2009, the funds did not incur any interest or penalties. The funds are not subject to examination by U.S. federal tax authorities for tax years before 2006 and by state tax authorities for tax years before 2005.

       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000, except Net Asset Value)
 
Under a plan of reorganization adopted by the Trust, all of the assets and liabilities of the Laudus U.S. MarketMasters Fund were transferred to the Schwab Core Equity Fund. The reorganization, which qualified as a tax-free exchange for federal income tax purposes, was completed at the close of business on May 21, 2009. The following is a summary of shares outstanding, net assets, net asset value per share issued and unrealized appreciation/depreciation immediately before and after the reorganization.

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio holdings, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Schwab Premier Equity Fund, Schwab Core Equity Fund, Schwab Dividend Equity Fund, Schwab Large-Cap Growth Fund, Schwab Small-Cap Equity Fund, Schwab Hedged Equity Fund, Schwab Financial Services Fund, Schwab Health Care Fund, and Schwab International Core Equity Fund (nine of the portfolios constituting Schwab Capital Trust, hereafter referred to as the “Funds”) at October 31, 2009, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets and the financial highlights for each of the periods presented, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Funds’ management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at October 31, 2009 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Investment Advisory Agreement Approval
 
The Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) requires that initial approval of, as well as the continuation of, a fund’s investment advisory agreement must be specifically approved (1) by the vote of the trustees or by a vote of the shareholders of the fund, and (2) by the vote of a majority of the trustees who are not parties to the investment advisory agreement or “interested persons” of any party (the “Independent Trustees”), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. In connection with such approvals, the fund’s trustees must request and evaluate, and the investment adviser is required to furnish, such information as may be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the investment advisory agreement.
 
The Board of Trustees (the “Board” or the “Trustees”, as appropriate) calls and holds one or more meetings each year that are dedicated, in whole or in part, to considering whether to renew the investment advisory agreement between Schwab Capital Trust (the “Trust”) and Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (“CSIM”) (the “Agreement”) with respect to the existing funds in the Trust, including Schwab Premier Equity Fund, Schwab Core Equity Fund, Schwab Dividend Equity Fund, Schwab Large-Cap Growth Fund, Schwab Small-Cap Equity Fund, Schwab Hedged Equity Fund, Schwab Financial Services Fund, Schwab Health Care Fund and Schwab International Core Equity Fund (the “Funds”), and to review certain other agreements pursuant to which CSIM provides investment advisory services to certain other registered investment companies. In preparation for the meeting(s), the Board requests and reviews a wide variety of materials provided by CSIM, including information about CSIM’s affiliates, personnel and operations. The Board also receives extensive data provided by third parties. This information is in addition to the detailed information about the Funds that the Board reviews during the course of each year, including information that relates to fund operations and fund performance. The Independent Trustees receive advice from independent counsel to the Independent Trustees, including a memorandum regarding the responsibilities of trustees for the approval of investment advisory agreements. In addition, the Independent Trustees meet in executive session outside the presence of fund management and participate in question and answer sessions with representatives of CSIM.
 
The Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, considered information specifically relating to its consideration of the continuance of the Agreement with respect to the Funds at meetings held on April 27, 2009, and May 15, 2009, and approved the renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds for an additional one year term at the meeting held on May 15, 2009. The Board’s approval of the Agreement with respect to the Funds was based on consideration and evaluation of a variety of specific factors discussed at these meetings and at prior meetings, including:
 
1.  the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Funds under the Agreement, including the resources of CSIM and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds;
 
2.  each Fund’s investment performance and how it compared to that of certain other comparable mutual funds;
 
3.  each Fund’s expenses and how those expenses compared to those of certain other comparable mutual funds;
 
4.  the profitability of CSIM and its affiliates, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (“Schwab”), with respect to each Fund, including both direct and indirect benefits accruing to CSIM and its affiliates; and
 
5.  the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Funds grow and whether fee levels in the Agreement reflect those economies of scale for the benefit of Fund investors.
 
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Board considered the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by CSIM to the Funds and the resources of CSIM and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds. In this regard, the Trustees evaluated, among other things, CSIM’s personnel, experience, track record and compliance program. The Trustees also considered investments in CSIM’s mutual fund infrastructure and the fact that Schwab’s wide range of products, services, and channel alternatives such as free advice, investment and research tools, Internet access, and an array of account features that benefit the Funds and their shareholders. The Trustees also considered Schwab’s excellent reputation as a full service brokerage firm and its overall financial condition. Finally, the Trustees considered that the vast majority of the Funds’ shareholders are also brokerage clients of Schwab. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the nature, extent and quality of services provided by CSIM to the Funds and the resources of CSIM and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds.
 
Fund Performance. The Board considered Fund performance in determining whether to renew the Agreement with respect to the Funds. Specifically, the Trustees considered each Fund’s performance relative to a peer group and peer category of other mutual funds and appropriate indices/benchmarks, in light of total return, yield, if applicable, and market trends. As part of this review, the Trustees considered the composition of the peer group and peer category, selection criteria and the reputation of the third party who prepared the peer group and peer category analysis. In evaluating the performance of each Fund, the Trustees considered both risk and shareholder risk expectations for such Fund and the appropriateness of the benchmark used to compare the performance of each Fund. The Trustees further considered the level of Fund performance in the context of its review of Fund expenses and adviser profitability discussed below. Following such evaluation the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the performance of the Funds supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds.
 
Fund Expenses. With respect to the Funds’ expenses, the Trustees considered the rate of compensation called for by the
 
 
 
 113


 

Agreement, and each Fund’s net operating expense ratio, in each case, in comparison to those of other comparable mutual funds, such peer groups and comparisons having been selected and calculated by an independent third party. The Trustees considered the effects of CSIM’s and Schwab’s historical practice of voluntarily waiving management and other fees to prevent total fund expenses from exceeding a specified cap. The Trustees also considered a commitment (i) by CSIM to reduce the contractual investment advisory fee relating to Schwab Premier Equity Fund, Schwab Core Equity Fund, Schwab Dividend Equity Fund, Schwab Large-Cap Growth Fund, Schwab Small-Cap Equity Fund, Schwab Hedged Equity Fund and Schwab International Core Equity Fund; (ii) by CSIM and Schwab to reduce the specified expense caps of Schwab Premier Equity Fund, Schwab Dividend Equity Fund, Schwab Large-Cap Growth Fund, Schwab Small-Cap Equity Fund, Schwab Hedged Equity Fund and Schwab International Core Equity Fund; (iii) by CSIM and Schwab to extend the specified expense caps of Schwab Premier Equity Fund, Schwab Core Equity Fund, Schwab Dividend Equity Fund, Schwab Large-Cap Growth Fund, Schwab Small-Cap Equity Fund, Schwab Hedged Equity Fund and Schwab International Core Equity Fund for so long as CSIM serves as the adviser to such Fund; and (iv) by CSIM and Schwab to implement an expense cap for Schwab Financial Services Fund and Schwab Health Care Fund for so long as CSIM serves as the adviser to such Funds. The Trustees also considered fees charged by CSIM to other mutual funds and to other types of accounts, such as wrap accounts, but, with respect to such other types of accounts, accorded less weight to such comparisons due to the different legal, regulatory, compliance and operating features of mutual funds as compared to these other types of accounts. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the expenses of the Funds are reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds.
 
Profitability. With regard to profitability, the Trustees considered the compensation flowing to CSIM and its affiliates, directly or indirectly. In this connection, the Trustees reviewed management’s profitability analyses, together with certain commentary thereon from an independent accounting firm. The Trustees also considered any other benefits derived by CSIM from its relationship with the Funds, such as whether, by virtue of its management of the Funds, CSIM obtains investment information or other research resources that aid it in providing advisory services to other clients. The Trustees considered whether the varied levels of compensation and profitability under the Agreement and other service agreements were reasonable and justified in light of the quality of all services rendered to each Fund by CSIM and its affiliates. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the profitability of CSIM is reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds.
 
Economies of Scale. The Trustees considered the existence of any economies of scale and whether those are passed along to a Fund’s shareholders through a graduated investment advisory fee schedule or other means, including any fee waivers by CSIM and its affiliates. In this regard, and consistent with their consideration of Fund expenses, the Trustees considered that CSIM and Schwab have previously committed resources to minimize the effects on shareholders of diseconomies of scale during periods when fund assets were relatively small through their contractual expense waivers. For example, such diseconomies of scale may particularly affect newer funds or funds with investment strategies that are from time to time out of favor, but shareholders may benefit from the continued availability of such funds at subsidized expense levels. The Trustees also considered the existing contractual investment advisory fee schedules relating to Schwab Financial Services Fund and Schwab Health Care Fund, in each case, that include lower fees at higher graduated asset levels and CSIM’s agreement to revised contractual investment advisory fee schedules relating to Schwab Premier Equity Fund, Schwab Core Equity Fund, Schwab Dividend Equity Fund, Schwab Large-Cap Growth Fund, Schwab Small-Cap Equity Fund, Schwab Hedged Equity Fund and Schwab International Core Equity Fund. Based on this evaluation the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the Funds obtain reasonable benefit from economies of scale.
 
In the course of their deliberations, the Trustees did not identify any particular information or factor that was all important or controlling. Based on the Trustees’ deliberation and their evaluation of the information described above, the Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, approved the continuation of the Agreement with respect to the Funds and concluded that the compensation under the Agreement with respect to the Funds is fair and reasonable in light of such services and expenses and such other matters as the Trustees have considered to be relevant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment.

Glossary
 
 
asset allocation The practice of dividing a portfolio among different asset classes, with each asset class assigned a particular percentage.
 
asset class A group of securities with similar structure and basic characteristics. Stocks, bonds and cash are the three main examples of asset classes.
 
beta A historical measure of an investment’s volatility relative to a market index (usually the S&P 500{R}). The index is defined as having a beta of 1.00. Investments with a beta higher than 1.00 have been more volatile than the index; those with a beta of less than 1.00 have been less volatile.
 
bond A security representing a loan from the investor to the issuer. A bond typically pays interest at a fixed rate (the “coupon rate”) until a specified date (the “maturity date”), at which time the issuer returns the money borrowed (“principal” or “face value”) to the bondholder. Because of their structure, bonds are sometimes called “fixed income securities” or “debt securities.”
 
An individual bond is subject to the credit risk of the issuer. Changes in interest rates can affect a bond’s market value prior to call or maturity. There is no guarantee that a bond’s yield to call or maturity will provide a positive return over the rate of inflation.
 
bond fund A bond fund is subject to the same credit, interest rate, and inflation risks as bonds. In addition, a bond fund incurs ongoing fees and expenses. A bond fund’s net asset value will fluctuate with the price of the underlying bonds and the portfolio turnover activity; return of principal is not guaranteed.
 
cap, capitalization See “market cap.”
 
capital gain, capital loss the difference between the amount paid for an investment and its value at a later time. If the investment has been sold, the capital gain or loss is considered a realized gain or loss. If the investment is still held, the gain or loss is still “on paper” and is considered unrealized.
 
earnings growth rate For a mutual fund, the average yearly rate at which the earnings of the companies in the fund’s portfolio have grown, measured over the past five years.
 
earnings per share (EPS) A company’s earnings, or net income, for the past 12 months, divided by the number of shares outstanding.
 
expense ratio The amount that is taken from a mutual fund’s assets each year to cover the fund’s operating expenses. An expense ratio of 0.50% means that a fund’s expenses amount to half of one percent of its average net assets a year.
 
market cap, market capitalization The value of a company as determined by the total value of all shares of its stock outstanding.
 
median market cap The midpoint of the range of market caps of the stocks held by a fund. There are different ways of calculating median market cap. With a simple median, half of the stocks in the fund’s portfolio would be larger than the median, and half would be smaller. With a weighted median (the type that is calculated for these funds), half of the fund’s assets are invested in stocks that are larger than the median market cap, and half in stocks that are smaller.
 
net asset value (NAV) The value of one share of a mutual fund. NAV is calculated by taking the fund’s total assets, subtracting liabilities, and dividing by the number of shares outstanding.
 
outstanding shares, shares outstanding When speaking of a company or mutual fund, indicates all shares currently held by investors.
 
price-to-book ratio (P/B)  The market price of a company’s stock compared with its “book value.” A mutual fund’s P/B is the weighted average of the P/B of all stocks in the fund’s portfolio.
 
price-to-earnings ratio (P/E)  The market price of a company’s stock compared with earnings over the past year. A mutual fund’s P/E is the weighted average of the P/E of all stocks in the fund’s portfolio.
 
return on equity (ROE) The average yearly rate of return for each dollar of investors’ money, measured over the past five years.
 
stock A share of ownership, or equity, in the issuing company.
 
total return The percentage that an investor would have earned or lost on an investment in the fund assuming dividends and distributions were reinvested.
 
weighted average For mutual funds, an average that gives the same weight to each security as the security represents in the fund’s portfolio.
 
yield The income paid out by an investment, expressed as a percentage of the investment’s market value.

From the President
 

MERK PHOTO
 
Randall W. Merk is President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. and the funds covered in this report. He joined the firm in 2002 and has held a variety of executive positions at Schwab.

 
Dear Shareholder,
 
In the past year, volatile prices throughout the global financial marketplace and a recessionary economy have been among the numerous challenges affecting investment conditions and investor sentiment. While portfolios may still be below peak values reached in 2007, many have recovered substantially from lows touched as markets dropped in 2008 and early 2009. In particular, prices of many equity and fixed income securities declined precipitously toward the end of 2008 and the beginning of 2009. Since March of 2009, however, improvements in the financial markets and diminished concern over the depth and duration of the economic recession led to a broad-market recovery, with the prices of many equity securities rebounding from earlier lows.
 
During the reporting period, we made a number of improvements to the Schwab Funds family of mutual funds making it cheaper and easier for our clients to invest in Schwab Funds. On May 5, 2009, we lowered expenses on Schwab Equity Index Funds and consolidated share classes for Schwab equity and bond funds. Each Schwab equity and bond fund now offers one low fund expense to investors regardless of how much they invest, with a low $100 minimum investment. Our goal is to make investing easier and more affordable for our clients and the advisors who serve them.
 
For information on the investment environment and the performance of individual funds contained in this book, please see the fund managers’ discussion and analysis in the following pages of this report.
 
If you have any questions about Schwab Funds, we are always available at 1-800-435-4000, while additional resources may be found on Schwab.com
 
Thank you for investing with us.
 
Sincerely,
 
-s- Randall W. Merk

The Investment Environment
 
 
 
Investment conditions in the global financial market improved markedly in the second half of the reporting period, from the end of March through October, as concern over the economic recession and financial crisis ebbed. The first four months of the period, from November through February, were generally bearish; equity prices were driven down across the board as investors pulled back from the markets amidst poor macroeconomic data and pessimism over the markets’ ability to mount swift recoveries. Since March of 2009, however, both domestic and international markets experienced recovery, which helped to reduce earlier losses and produce positive 12-month returns in many cases. On the fixed income side, yields remained low on government backed securities, but leading broad market municipal and taxable bond indices were positive for the period.
 
Major economic indicators, such as Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and unemployment, continued to demonstrate that a consistent recovery has yet to materialize across many measures of the economy. GDP—the output of goods and services produced by labor and property located in the United States—rose 2.8% in the third quarter of 2009, after declining 0.7% in the prior quarter. The third quarter GDP gain was primarily attributable to increases in personal consumption expenditures, exports, private inventory investment, and government spending, according to the Bureau of Economic Analysis. The U.S. unemployment rate increased from 6.7% in November of 2008 to 10.2% in October of 2009. Sales of existing homes were a bright spot toward the end of the period, rising 9.4% in September, fueled by tax credits for new home buyers and favorable prices.
 
The returns of the S&P 500 Index, which is usually seen as a bellwether for financial markets, were positive. For the 12-month reporting period ending October 31, 2009, the S&P 500 Index returned 9.80%. In the index, Information Technology was the strongest performing sector, followed by Consumer Discretionary and Materials. Financials was the weakest sector, followed by Utilities and Industrials. In general, large-cap stocks outperformed small-cap as evidenced by the Russell 1000 Index, which returned 11.20%, compared with the Russell 2000 Index, which returned 6.46%. Looking at the broad market, growth outperformed value; the Russell 3000 Growth Index returned 17.04%, while the Russell 3000 Value Index returned 4.56%. Internationally, the MSCI EAFE Index returned 28.41%, while the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (Net)* returned 64.13%.
 
On the fixed income side, yields were low throughout the period for U.S. Treasury securities, especially those with the shortest maturities. The Barclays Capital U.S. Short Treasury: 9-12 Months returned 1.75%. The broad taxable bond market fared better, benefiting from price recovery on mortgage-backed securities and other assets that were out of favor with investors during the darkest moments of the financial crisis; the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index returned 13.79%. Returns were also positive in the tax free bond market—the Barclays Capital General Muni Bond Index returned 13.60%. The Federal Open Market Committee reaffirmed on November 4, 2009 that it would continue to hold interest rates at a target range of 0 to 0.25%.

Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund
 
 
The Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund returned 9.81% during the period, compared to the benchmark S&P 500 Index, which returned 9.80%. Unlike the fund, the index does not include operational and transactional costs. The S&P 500 Index includes the stocks of 500 leading U.S. publicly traded companies from a broad range of industries and is market-capitalization weighted. Therefore, its returns are most influenced by the largest companies in the index. When looking at returns in the fund on a sector specific level, Information Technology was the strongest performer, followed by Consumer Discretionary and Materials. Financials was the only sector to decline in value during the period. Though positive, overall sector returns for Utilities and Industrials were relatively weak. When looking at industry specific returns, Automobiles & Components was the strongest performer, followed by Technology Hardware & Equipment and Retailing. Poorly performing industry groups included Banks, Real Estate, and Transportation. Better performing securities in the fund included Apple, Inc., Microsoft Corp., and Google, Inc. Securities detracting from performance included Citigroup, Inc., General Electric, Co., and Bank of America.

1  Fund expenses may have been partially absorbed by CSIM and Schwab. Without these reductions, the fund’s returns would have been lower.
 
2  The pre-tax total return and the graph do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. After-tax returns are calculated using the highest historical individual federal marginal income tax rates in effect as of 10/31/09 and do not reflect the impact of state and local taxes or the alternative minimum tax. Actual returns depend on an investor’s situation and may differ from those shown. After-tax returns may not be relevant to investors who hold their fund shares through tax-deferred arrangements. Pre-liquidation after-tax returns reflect the tax effects of purchases and sales of securities within the fund portfolios and assume investors continue to hold fund shares at the end of the measurement periods. Post-liquidation figures assume investors sold fund shares at the end of the measurement periods and reflect both the effects of taxable distributions and any taxable gains or losses realized upon the sale of shares. Source for category information: Morningstar, Inc. Some funds in this category may not use tax-efficient strategies, including this fund.
 
3  As stated in the prospectus. Net Expense: Expenses reduced by a contractual fee waiver in effect for so long as CSIM serves as adviser to the fund. Gross Expense: Does not reflect the effect of contractual fee waivers. For actual ratios during the period, refer to the financial highlights section of the financial statements.

Schwab 1000 Index® Fund

Therefore, its returns are most influenced by the largest companies in the index.

Financials was the only sector to decline in value during the period. Though positive, overall sector returns for Utilities and Industrials were relatively weak. When looking at industry specific returns, Automobiles & Components was the strongest performer, followed by Technology Hardware & Equipment and Retailing. Poorly performing industry groups included Banks, Transportation and Diversified Financials. Better performing securities in the fund included Apple, Inc., Microsoft Corp., and Google, Inc.

Fund Expenses (Unaudited)
 
 Examples for a $1,000 Investment
 
As a fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: transaction costs, such as redemption fees, and ongoing costs, such as management fees, transfer agent and shareholder services fees, and other fund expenses.
 
The expense examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing cost (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare this cost with the ongoing cost of investing in other mutual funds. These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested for six-months beginning May 1, 2009 and held through October 31, 2009.
 
Actual Return lines in the table below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use this information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value ¸ $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for your fund or share class under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period”.
 
Hypothetical Return lines in the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed return of 5% per year before expenses. Because the return used is not an actual return, it may not be used to estimate the actual ending account value or expenses you paid for the period.
 
You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
 
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only, and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as redemption fees. If these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Prior to August 22, 2009, the Schwab International Index Fund and Schwab Small-Cap Index Fund each offered two shared classes: Investor Shares and Select Shares®. Effective August 21, 2009, all outstanding Investor Shares of the Schwab International Index Fund and Schwab Small-Cap Index Fund were converted into Select Shares® and each fund no longer offers separate share classes. Immediately after and as a result of the conversion, each shareholder of the Investor Shares became an owner of the Select Shares® of the same fund. Prior to September 10, 2009, the Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund each offered three share classes: Investor Shares, Select Shares® and e.Shares®. Effective September 9, 2009, all outstanding Investor Shares and e.Shares® were converted into Select Shares® and the fund no longer offers separate share classes. Immediately after and as a result of the conversion, each shareholder of the Investor Shares and e.Shares® became an owner of the Select Shares® of the fund. Prior to September 19, 2009, the Schwab Total Stock Market Index Fund offered two share classes: Investor Shares and Select Shares®. Effective September 19, 2009, all outstanding Investor Shares of the Schwab Total Stock Market Index Fund, were converted into Select Shares® and the fund no longer offers separate share classes. Immediately after and as a result of the conversion, each shareholder of the Investor Shares became an owner of the Select Shares® of the fund. Prior to September 19, 2009, the Schwab 1000 Index Fund offered two share classes: Investor Shares and Select Shares®. Effective September 18, 2009, all outstanding Select Shares® were converted into Investor Shares and the fund no longer offers separate share classes. Immediately after and as a result of the conversion, each shareholder of the Select Shares® became an owner of the Investor Shares of the fund.
 
Shares are bought and sold (subject to a redemption fee, see Note 8) at closing net asset value (“NAV“), which is the price for all outstanding shares of a fund. Each share has a par value of 1/1,000 of a cent, and the trustees may authorize the issuance of as many shares as necessary.
 
Each fund maintains its own account for purposes of holding assets and accounting, and is considered a separate entity for tax purposes. Within its account, each fund also may keep certain assets in segregated accounts, as required by securities laws.

2. Significant Accounting Policies:
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the funds use in the preparation of financial statements. The accounting policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
(a) Security Valuation:
 
The funds value the securities in their portfolios every business day. The funds use the following policies to value various types of securities:
 
  •  Securities traded on an exchange or over-the-counter: valued at the closing value for the day, or, on days when no closing value has been reported, halfway between the most recent bid and asked quotes. Securities that are primarily traded on foreign exchanges are valued at the closing values of such securities on their respective exchanges with these values then translated into U.S. dollars at the valuation date exchange rate.
 
  •  Securities for which no quoted value is available: The Boards of Trustees have adopted procedures to fair value each fund’s securities when market prices are not “readily available” or are unreliable. For example, a fund may fair value a security when a security is delisted or its trading is halted or suspended; when a security’s primary pricing source is unable or unwilling to provide a price or when a security’s primary trading market is closed during regular market hours. Each fund makes fair value determinations in good faith in accordance with the fund’s valuation procedures. The Boards of Trustees regularly review fair value determinations made by the funds pursuant to the procedures.
 
  •  International Fair Valuation: The Boards of Trustees have adopted procedures to fair value foreign securities that trade in markets that close prior to when the funds value their holdings. By fair valuing securities whose prices may have been affected by events occurring after the close of trading, each fund seeks to establish prices that investors might expect to realize upon the current sales of these securities. This methodology is designed to deter “arbitrage” market timers, who seek to exploit delays between the change in the value of a fund’s portfolio holdings and the net asset value of the fund’s shares, and seeks to help ensure that the prices at which the fund’s shares are purchased and redeemed are fair and do not result in dilution of shareholder interest or other harm to shareholders. When fair value pricing is used at the open or close of a reporting period, it may cause a temporary divergence between the return of a fund and that of its index or benchmark. Each fund makes fair value determinations in good faith in accordance with the fund’s valuation procedures. Due to the subjective and variable nature of fair value pricing, there can be no assurance that a fund could obtain the fair value assigned to the security upon the sale of such security. The Boards of Trustees regularly review fair value determinations made by the funds pursuant to the procedures.
 
  •  Futures and Forwards contracts: valued at their settlement prices as of the close of their exchanges (for futures) or at a value based on that day’s exchange rates (for forwards).
 
  •  Short-term securities (60 days or less to maturity): valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.
 
  •  Underlying funds: valued at their respective NAV as determined by those funds in accordance with the 1940 Act for a given day.
 
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures under GAAP, the funds disclose the fair value of their investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (level 3 measurements).
 
The funds adopted the authoritative guidance under GAAP on determining fair value when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased and identifying transactions that are not orderly. Accordingly, if the funds determine that either the volume and/or level of activity for an asset or liability has significantly decreased (from normal conditions for that asset or liability) or price quotations or observable inputs are not associated with orderly transactions, increased analysis and management judgment will be required to estimate fair value.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
The guidance establishes three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:
 
  •  Level 1—quoted prices in active markets for identical securities— Investments whose values are based on quoted market prices in active markets, and whose values are therefore classified as Level 1 prices, include active listed equities. The funds do not adjust the quoted price for such investments, even in situations where the funds hold a large position and a sale could reasonably impact the quoted price.
 
  •  Level 2—other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)— Investments that trade in markets that are not considered to be active, but whose values are based on quoted market prices, dealer quotations or valuations provided by alternative pricing sources supported by observable inputs are classified as Level 2 prices. These generally include U.S. government and sovereign obligations, most government agency securities, investment-grade corporate bonds, certain mortgage products, less liquid listed equities, and state, municipal and provincial obligations. In addition, international securities whose markets close hours before the funds value their holdings may require revised valuations due to significant movement in the U.S. markets occurring after the daily close of the foreign markets. The Boards of Trustees have approved a vendor that would calculate revised valuations of international securities based on a number of factors that appear to correlate to the movements in the U.S. markets. As investments whose values are classified as Level 2 prices include positions that are not traded in active markets and/or are subject to transfer restrictions, valuations may be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, which are generally based on available market information.
 
  •  Level 3—significant unobservable inputs (including the funds’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)— Investments whose values are classified as Level 3 prices have significant unobservable inputs, as they may trade infrequently or not at all. When observable prices are not available for these securities, the funds use one or more valuation techniques for which sufficient and reliable data is available. The inputs used by the funds in estimating the value of Level 3 prices may include the original transaction price, quoted prices for similar securities or assets in active markets, completed or pending third-party transactions in the underlying investment or comparable issuers, and changes in financial ratios or cash flows. Level 3 prices may also be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, with the amount of such discount estimated by the funds in the absence of market information. Assumptions used by the funds due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting fair value and therefore the funds’ results of operations.
 
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the funds’ investments as of October 31, 2009:

(a)
  As categorized in complete schedule of holdings.
 
All net realized and change in unrealized gains (losses) in the tables above are reflected on the accompanying statements of operations. Changes in net unrealized gains (losses) for Level 3 investments held by the funds at October 31, 2009 approximate the changes in unrealized gains (losses) in the tables above.
 
(b) Portfolio Investments:
 
Derivatives: The funds may invest in futures contracts to reduce the effects of uninvested cash on performance or other reasons. Futures contracts are instruments that represent an agreement between two parties that obligates one party to buy, and the other party to sell, specific instruments at an agreed-upon price on a stipulated future date.
 
Because futures contracts carry inherent risks, a fund must give the broker a deposit of cash and/or securities (the “initial margin”) whenever it enters into the futures contract. The amount of the deposit may vary from one contract to another, but it is generally a percentage of the contract amount. Subsequent payments (“variation margin”) are made or received by a fund depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the future contract and are accounted for as unrealized gains or losses. Futures are traded publicly on exchanges and their markets values change daily.
 
The Schwab International Index Fund may invest in forward currency contracts in connection with the purchase and sale of portfolio securities to minimize the uncertainty of changes in future foreign currency exchange rates. “Forwards”, as they are known, are contracts to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. Forwards have similar risks as futures except that they are agreements directly between two parties. Also, forwards are not publicly traded.
 
Repurchase Agreements: The funds may enter into repurchase agreements. In a repurchase agreement, a fund buys a security from another party (usually a financial institution) with the agreement that it be sold back in the future. The date, price and other conditions are all specified when the agreement is created.
 
The funds’ repurchase agreements will be fully collateralized by U.S. government securities or U.S. government agency securities. All collateral is held by the funds’ custodian (or, in the case of tri-party agreements, the agent’s bank) and is monitored daily to ensure that its market value is at least equal to the repurchase price under the agreement.
 
Securities Lending: The funds may loan securities to certain brokers, dealers and other financial institutions that pay the funds negotiated fees. The funds receive cash, letters of credit or U.S. government securities as collateral on these loans. All of the cash collateral received is reinvested in high quality, short-term investments. The value of the collateral must be at least 102% of the market value of the loaned securities as of the first day of the loan, and at least 100% each day thereafter. If the value of the collateral falls below 100%, it will be adjusted the following day.
 
(c) Security Transactions:
 
Security transactions are recorded as of the date the order to buy or sell the security is executed. Realized gains and losses from security transactions are based on the identified costs of the securities involved.

Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are reported in U.S. dollars. For assets and liabilities held on a given date, the dollar value is based on market exchange rates in effect on that date. Transactions involving foreign currencies, including purchases, sales, income receipts and expense payments, are calculated using exchange rates in effect on the transaction date. The funds do not isolate the portion of the fluctuations on investments resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rates from the fluctuations in market prices of investments held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.
 
Gains realized by the funds on the sale of securities in certain foreign countries may be subject to non-U.S. taxes. The funds record a liability based on unrealized gains to provide for potential non-U.S. taxes payable upon the sale of these securities.
 
When a fund closes out a futures or forwards position, it calculates the difference between the value of the position at the beginning and at the end of the contract, and records a realized gains or loss accordingly. A fund records the daily change in market value of futures, and also the change in the amount of margin deposit required (“due to/from broker“).
 
(d) Investment Income:
 
Interest income is recorded as it accrues. Dividends (net of applicable foreign withholding tax) and distributions from portfolio securities and underlying funds are recorded on the date they are effective (the ex-dividend date), although the funds record certain foreign security dividends on the day they learn of the ex-dividend date.
 
(e) Expenses:
 
Expenses that are specific to a fund within the trusts are charged directly to that fund. Expenses that are common to all funds within the trusts generally are allocated among the funds in proportion to their average daily net assets.
 
For funds offering multiple share classes, the net investment income, other than class specific expenses, and the realized and unrealized gains or losses, were allocated daily to each class in proportion to its average daily net assets.
 
(f) Distributions to Shareholders:
 
The funds make distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains once a year, if any.
 
(g) Custody Credit:
 
Certain funds have an arrangement with their custodian bank, State Street Corp., under which the funds receive a credit for their uninvested cash balance to offset their custody fees and accounting fees. The credit amounts (if any) are disclosed in the Statement of Operations as a reduction to the funds’ operating expenses.
 
(h) Accounting Estimates:
 
The accounting policies described in this report conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Notwithstanding this, shareholders should understand that in order to follow these principles, fund management has to make estimates and assumptions that affect the information reported in the financial statements. It’s possible that once the results are known, they may turn out to be different from these estimates.
 
(i) Federal Income Taxes:
 
The funds intend to meet federal income and excise tax requirements for regulated investment companies. Accordingly, the funds distribute substantially all of their net investment income and realized net capital gains (if any) to their respective shareholders each year. As long as a fund meets the tax requirements, it is not required to pay federal income tax.
 
(j) Indemnification:
 
Under the funds’ organizational documents, the officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the funds. In addition, in the normal course of business the funds enter into contracts with their vendors and others that provide general indemnifications. The funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown

as this would involve future claims that may be made against the funds. However, based on experience, the funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.
 
3. Risk Factors:
 
Investing in the funds may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, those described below:
 
Stock markets rise and fall daily. As with any investment whose performance is tied to these markets, the value of your investment in a fund will fluctuate, which means that you could lose money.
 
Your investment follows either the U.S. stock market or the performance of a mix of international large-cap stocks, as measured by an index. It follows this market during upturns as well as downturns. Because of its indexing strategy, the funds do not take steps to reduce market exposure or to lessen the effects of a declining market. In addition, because of the funds’ expenses, the funds’ performance is normally below that of the index.
 
The prices of equity securities rise and fall daily. These price movements may result from factors affecting individual companies, industries or the securities market as a whole. Individual companies may report poor results or be negatively affected by industry and/or economic trends and developments. The prices of securities issued by such companies may suffer a decline in response. In addition, the equity market tends to move in cycles which may cause stock prices to fall over short or extended periods of time.
 
Historically, small-cap stocks have been riskier than large and mid-cap stocks. Stock prices of smaller companies may be based in substantial part on future expectations rather than current achievements and may move sharply especially during market upturns and downturns. Small-cap companies themselves may be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic events than larger, more established companies. During a period when small-cap stocks fall behind other types of investments - bonds or large-cap stocks, for instance - a fund’s performance also will lag those investments.
 
A fund’s investment in securities of foreign issuers involve certain risks that are greater than those associated with investments in securities of U.S. issuers. These include risk of adverse changes in foreign economic, political, regulatory and other conditions, or changes in currency exchange rates or exchange control regulations (including limitations on currency movements and exchanges). In certain countries, legal remedies available to investors may be more limited than those available with respect to investments in the United States. The securities of some foreign companies may be less liquid and, at times more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. companies. A fund may also experience more rapid or extreme changes in value as compared to a fund that invests solely in securities of U.S. companies because the securities markets of many foreign countries are relatively small with a limited number of companies representing a small number of industries.
 
A fund may use derivatives (including futures) to enhance returns or hedge against market declines. A fund’s use of derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments and could cause a fund to lose more than the principal amount invested. In addition, investments in derivatives may involve leverage, which means a small percentage of assets invested in derivatives can have a disproportionately larger impact on a fund.
 
As index funds, the funds seek to track the performance of their benchmark indices, although they may not be successful in doing so. The divergence between the performance of a fund and its benchmark index, positive or negative, is called “tracking error.” Tracking error can be caused by many factors and it may be significant. For example, a fund may not invest in all of the securities in its benchmark index or may invest in securities not in the index, because the manager may use a sampling technique that is designed to balance the risk of tracking error against the negative effects of transaction costs associated with certain investments. Similarly, a fund may not invest in certain securities in its benchmark index, or match the securities’ weighting to the benchmark, due to regulatory, operational, custodial or liquidity constraints; corporate transactions; asset valuations; transaction costs and timing; tax considerations; and index rebalancing, which may result in tracking error. In addition, international funds may not invest in issuers located in certain countries due to these considerations. A fund may attempt to offset the effects of not being invested in certain index securities by making substitute investments, but these efforts may not be successful. In addition, cash flows into and out of a fund, operating expenses and trading costs all affect the ability

of the fund to match the performance of its benchmark index, because the benchmark index does not have to manage cash flows and does not incur any costs.
 
The funds do not fully replicate the benchmark indices and may hold securities not included in the indices. As a result, the funds are subject to the risk that the Adviser’s investment management strategy, the implementation of which is subject to a number of constraints, may not produce the intended results. Because the funds utilize a sampling approach, they may not track the return of the indices as well as they would if each fund purchased all of the securities in their benchmark index.
 
Please refer to the funds’ prospectus for a complete description of the principal risks of investing in the funds.

       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
As of October 31, 2009, the shares owned by the Charitable Giving Trust as a percentage of the total shares of the Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund and the Schwab Small Cap Index Fund were 0.5% and 0.3%, respectively.
 
The funds may make direct transactions with certain other Schwab Funds when practical. When one fund is seeking to sell a security that another is seeking to buy, an interfund transaction can allow both funds to benefit by reducing transaction costs. This practice is limited to funds that share the same investment adviser, trustees and officers. During the period ended October 31, 2009, each fund’s total aggregate security transactions with other Schwab Funds were as follows:
 
         
Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund
    $—  
Schwab 1000 Index Fund
    151,584  
Schwab Small-Cap Index Fund
    56,297  
Schwab Total Stock Market Index Fund
    2,199  
Schwab International Index Fund
    6,191  
 
Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, the funds may enter into interfund borrowing and lending transactions within other Schwab Funds. All loans are for temporary or emergency purposes only. The interest rate charged on the loan is the average of the overnight repurchase agreement rate and the short-term bank loan rate. The interfund lending facility is subject to the oversight and periodic review of the Boards of Trustees of the Schwab Funds. There was no interfund borrowing or lending activity for any fund during the period.
 
5. Boards of Trustees:
 
Trustees may include people who are officers and/or directors of the investment adviser or Schwab. Federal securities law limit the percentage of such “interested persons” who may serve on a trust’s board, and the trusts were in compliance with these limitations throughout the report period. The trusts did not pay any of these persons for their service as trustees, but it did pay non-interested persons (independent trustees), as noted in each fund’s Statement of Operations.
 
6. Borrowing from Banks:
 
The funds may borrow money from banks and custodians. The funds have custodian overdraft facilities, a committed line of credit of $150 million with State Street Corp., an uncommitted line of credit of $100 million with Bank of America, N.A. and an uncommitted line of credit of $50 million with Brown Brothers Harriman. The funds pay interest on the amounts they borrow at rates that are negotiated periodically. The funds also pay an annual fee to State Street Corp. for the committed line of credit.
 
There were no borrowings from the lines of credit by the funds during the period. However, certain funds utilized their overdraft facility and incurred interest expense, which is disclosed in the Statement of Operations. The interest expense is determined based on a negotiated rate above the current Federal Funds Rate.
 
7. Purchases and Sales of Investment Securities:
       (All dollar amounts are x 1,000)
 
For the period ended October 31, 2009, purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term obligations) were as follows:

Distributions paid to shareholders are based on net investment income and net realized gains determined on a tax basis, which may differ from net investment income and net realized gains from financial reporting purposes. These differences are due primarily to differing treatment for items such as non-U.S. currency gains and losses, short-term capital gains and losses; capital losses related to wash sales, unrealized appreciation of certain investments in non-U.S. securities; and income on certain investments. The fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the year in which the net investment income and net realized gains are recorded by the fund for financial reporting purposes. The fund may also designate a portion of the amount paid to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for tax purposes.
 
The permanent book and tax basis differences may result in reclassifications between capital account and other accounts as required. The adjustments will have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. As of October 31, 2009, the funds made the following reclassifications:

As of October 31, 2009, management has reviewed the tax positions for open periods (for federal purposes, three years from the date of filing and for state purposes, four years from the date of filing) as applicable to the funds, and has determined that no provision for income tax is required in the funds’ financial statements. The funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the period ended October 31, 2009, the funds did not incur any interest or penalties. The funds are not subject to examination by U.S. federal tax authorities for tax years before 2006 and by state tax authorities for tax years before 2005.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
 
 
To the Boards of Trustees and Shareholders of:
Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund
Schwab 1000 Index Fund
Schwab Small-Cap Index Fund
Schwab Total Stock Market Index Fund
Schwab International Index Fund
 
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio holdings, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Schwab 1000 Index Fund (one of the portfolios constituting Schwab Investments), Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund, Schwab Small-Cap Index Fund, Schwab Total Stock Market Index Fund and Schwab International Index Fund (four of the portfolios constituting Schwab Capital Trust) (hereafter collectively referred to as the “Funds”) at October 31, 2009, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Funds’ management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at October 31, 2009 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Investment Advisory Agreement Approval
 
The Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) requires that initial approval of, as well as the continuation of, a fund’s investment advisory agreement must be specifically approved (1) by the vote of the trustees or by a vote of the shareholders of the fund, and (2) by the vote of a majority of the trustees who are not parties to the investment advisory agreement or “interested persons” of any party (the “Independent Trustees”), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. In connection with such approvals, the fund’s trustees must request and evaluate, and the investment adviser is required to furnish, such information as may be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the investment advisory agreement.
 
The Board of Trustees (the “Board” or the “Trustees”, as appropriate) calls and holds one or more meetings each year that are dedicated, in whole or in part, to considering whether to renew the investment advisory agreements between Schwab Capital Trust and Schwab Investments (collectively, the “Trusts”) and Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (“CSIM”) (the “Agreements”) with respect to the existing funds in the Trusts, including Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund, Schwab 1000 Index Fund, Schwab Small-Cap Index Fund, Schwab Total Stock Market Index Fund and Schwab International Index Fund (the “Funds”), and to review certain other agreements pursuant to which CSIM provides investment advisory services to certain other registered investment companies and funds. In preparation for the meeting(s), the Board requests and reviews a wide variety of materials provided by CSIM, including information about CSIM’s affiliates, personnel and operations. The Board also receives extensive data provided by third parties. This information is in addition to the detailed information about the Funds that the Board reviews during the course of each year, including information that relates to fund operations and fund performance. The Independent Trustees receive advice from independent counsel to the Independent Trustees, including a memorandum regarding the responsibilities of trustees for the approval of investment advisory agreements. In addition, the Independent Trustees meet in executive session outside the presence of fund management and participate in question and answer sessions with representatives of CSIM.
 
The Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, considered information specifically relating to its consideration of the continuance of the Agreements with respect to the Funds at meetings held on April 27, 2009, and May 15, 2009, and approved the renewal of the Agreements with respect to the Funds for an additional one year term at the meeting held on May 15, 2009. The Board’s approval of the Agreements with respect to the Funds was based on consideration and evaluation of a variety of specific factors discussed at these meetings and at prior meetings, including:
 
1.  the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Funds under the Agreement, including the resources of CSIM and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds;
 
2.  each Fund’s investment performance and how it compared to that of certain other comparable mutual funds;
 
3.  each Fund’s expenses and how those expenses compared to those of certain other comparable mutual funds;
 
4.  the profitability of CSIM and its affiliates, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (“Schwab”), with respect to each Fund, including both direct and indirect benefits accruing to CSIM and its affiliates; and
 
5.  the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Funds grow and whether fee levels in the Agreements reflect those economies of scale for the benefit of Fund investors.
 
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Board considered the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by CSIM to the Funds and the resources of CSIM and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds. In this regard, the Trustees evaluated, among other things, CSIM’s personnel, experience, track record and compliance program. The Trustees also considered investments in CSIM’s mutual fund infrastructure and the fact that Schwab’s wide range of products, services, and channel alternatives such as free advice, investment and research tools, Internet access, and an array of account features that benefit the Funds and their shareholders. The Trustees also considered Schwab’s excellent reputation as a full service brokerage firm and its overall financial condition. Finally, the Trustees considered that the vast majority of the Funds’ shareholders are also brokerage clients of Schwab. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the nature, extent and quality of services provided by CSIM to the Funds and the resources of CSIM and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds supported renewal of the Agreements with respect to the Funds.
 
Fund Performance. The Board considered Fund performance in determining whether to renew the Agreements with respect to the Funds. Specifically, the Trustees considered each Fund’s performance relative to a peer group and peer category of other mutual funds and appropriate indices/benchmarks, in light of total return, yield, if applicable, and market trends. As part of this review, the Trustees considered the composition of the peer group and peer category,
 
 
 
68 


 

selection criteria and the reputation of the third party who prepared the peer group and peer category analysis. In evaluating the performance of each Fund, the Trustees considered both risk and shareholder risk expectations for such Fund and the appropriateness of the benchmark used to compare the performance of each Fund. The Trustees further considered the level of Fund performance in the context of its review of Fund expenses and adviser profitability discussed below. Following such evaluation the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the performance of the Funds supported renewal of the Agreements with respect to the Funds.
 
Fund Expenses. With respect to the Funds’ expenses, the Trustees considered the rate of compensation called for by the Agreements, and each Fund’s net operating expense ratio, in each case, in comparison to those of other comparable mutual funds, such peer groups and comparisons having been selected and calculated by an independent third party. The Trustees considered the effects of CSIM’s and Schwab’s historical practice of voluntarily waiving management and other fees to prevent total Fund expenses from exceeding a specified cap. The Trustees also considered a commitment (i) by CSIM to reduce its contractual investment advisory fee relating to Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund, Schwab Small-Cap Index Fund, Schwab Total Stock Market Index Fund and Schwab International Index Fund; (ii) by CSIM and Schwab to reduce the specified expense caps of Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund, Schwab 1000 Index Fund, Schwab Small-Cap Index Fund, Schwab Total Stock Market Index Fund and Schwab International Index Fund; and (iii) by CSIM and Schwab to extend each Fund’s specified expense cap for so long as CSIM serves as the adviser to such Fund. The Trustees also considered fees charged by CSIM to other mutual funds and to other types of accounts, such as wrap accounts, but, with respect to such other types of accounts, accorded less weight to such comparisons due to the different legal, regulatory, compliance and operating features of mutual funds as compared to these other types of accounts. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the expenses of the Funds are reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreements with respect to the Funds.
 
Profitability. With regard to profitability, the Trustees considered the compensation flowing to CSIM and its affiliates, directly or indirectly. In this connection, the Trustees reviewed management’s profitability analyses, together with certain commentary thereon from an independent accounting firm. The Trustees also considered any other benefits derived by CSIM from its relationship with the Funds, such as whether, by virtue of its management of the Funds, CSIM obtains investment information or other research resources that aid it in providing advisory services to other clients. The Trustees considered whether the varied levels of compensation and profitability under the Agreements and other service agreements were reasonable and justified in light of the quality of all services rendered to each Fund by CSIM and its affiliates. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the profitability of CSIM is reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreements with respect to the Funds.
 
Economies of Scale. The Trustees considered the existence of any economies of scale and whether those are passed along to a Fund’s shareholders through a graduated investment advisory fee schedule or other means, including any fee waivers by CSIM and its affiliates. In this regard, and consistent with their consideration of Fund expenses, the Trustees considered that CSIM and Schwab have previously committed resources to minimize the effects on shareholders of diseconomies of scale during periods when fund assets were relatively small through their contractual expense waivers. For example, such diseconomies of scale may particularly affect newer funds or funds with investment strategies that are from time to time out of favor, but shareholders may benefit from the continued availability of such funds at subsidized expense levels. The Trustees also considered the existing contractual investment advisory fee schedules relating to Schwab 1000 Index Fund that include lower fees at higher graduated asset levels and CSIM’s agreement to revised contractual investment advisory fee schedules relating to Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund, Schwab Small-Cap Index Fund, Schwab Total Stock Market Index Fund and Schwab International Index Fund. Based on this evaluation the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the Funds obtain reasonable benefit from economies of scale.
 
In the course of their deliberations, the Trustees did not identify any particular information or factor that was all important or controlling. Based on the Trustees’ deliberation and their evaluation of the information described above, the Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, approved the continuation of the Agreements with respect to the Funds and concluded that the compensation under the Agreements with respect to the Funds is fair and reasonable in light of such services and expenses and such other matters as the Trustees have considered to be relevant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment.

Independent trustees elected prior to January 1, 2000 will retire on the following schedule: Messrs. Stephens and Wilsey will retire on December 31, 2010.

Glossary
 
 
asset allocation The practice of dividing a portfolio among different asset classes, with each asset class assigned a particular percentage.
 
asset class A group of securities with similar structure and basic characteristics. Stocks, bonds and cash are the three main examples of asset classes.
 
beta A historical measure of an investment’s volatility relative to a market index (usually the S&P 500{R}). The index is defined as having a beta of 1.00. Investments with a beta higher than 1.00 have been more volatile than the index; those with a beta of less than 1.00 have been less volatile.
 
bond A security representing a loan from the investor to the issuer. A bond typically pays interest at a fixed rate (the “coupon rate”) until a specified date (the “maturity date”), at which time the issuer returns the money borrowed (“principal” or “face value”) to the bondholder. Because of their structure, bonds are sometimes called “fixed income securities” or “debt securities.”
 
An individual bond is subject to the credit risk of the issuer. Changes in interest rates can affect a bond’s market value prior to call or maturity. There is no guarantee that a bond’s yield to call or maturity will provide a positive return over the rate of inflation.
 
bond fund A bond fund is subject to the same credit, interest rate, and inflation risks as bonds. In addition, a bond fund incurs ongoing fees and expenses. A bond fund’s net asset value will fluctuate with the price of the underlying bonds and the portfolio turnover activity; return of principal is not guaranteed.
 
cap, capitalization See “market cap.”
 
capital gain, capital loss the difference between the amount paid for an investment and its value at a later time. If the investment has been sold, the capital gain or loss is considered a realized gain or loss. If the investment is still held, the gain or loss is still “on paper” and is considered unrealized.
 
earnings growth rate For a mutual fund, the average yearly rate at which the earnings of the companies in the fund’s portfolio have grown, measured over the past five years.
 
earnings per share (EPS) A company’s earnings, or net income, for the past 12 months, divided by the number of shares outstanding.
 
expense ratio The amount that is taken from a mutual fund’s assets each year to cover the fund’s operating expenses. An expense ratio of 0.50% means that a fund’s expenses amount to half of one percent of its average net assets a year.
 
market cap, market capitalization The value of a company as determined by the total value of all shares of its stock outstanding.
 
median market cap The midpoint of the range of market caps of the stocks held by a fund. There are different ways of calculating median market cap. With a simple median, half of the stocks in the fund’s portfolio would be larger than the median, and half would be smaller. With a weighted median (the type that is calculated for these funds), half of the fund’s assets are invested in stocks that are larger than the median market cap, and half in stocks that are smaller.
 
net asset value (NAV) The value of one share of a mutual fund. NAV is calculated by taking the fund’s total assets, subtracting liabilities, and dividing by the number of shares outstanding.
 
outstanding shares, shares outstanding When speaking of a company or mutual fund, indicates all shares currently held by investors.
 
price-to-book ratio (P/B)  The market price of a company’s stock compared with its “book value.” A mutual fund’s P/B is the weighted average of the P/B of all stocks in the fund’s portfolio.
 
price-to-earnings ratio (P/E)  The market price of a company’s stock compared with earnings over the past year. A mutual fund’s P/E is the weighted average of the P/E of all stocks in the fund’s portfolio.
 
return on equity (ROE) The average yearly rate of return for each dollar of investors’ money, measured over the past five years.
 
stock A share of ownership, or equity, in the issuing company.
 
total return The percentage that an investor would have earned or lost on an investment in the fund assuming dividends and distributions were reinvested.
 
weighted average For mutual funds, an average that gives the same weight to each security as the security represents in the fund’s portfolio.
 
yield The income paid out by an investment, expressed as a percentage of the investment’s market value.
