From the President
 

CHANDOHA PHOTO
 
Marie Chandoha is President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. and the funds covered in this report.

 
Dear Shareholder,
 
As President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc., I’d like to thank you for trusting us to help you meet your investment objectives, and for reading this important report concerning the Schwab Equity Index Funds. These funds employ an indexing strategy to track the performance of a particular cap-weighted stock market index, seeking returns by modeling portfolios according to each fund’s respective benchmark index.
 
For the 12 months ended October 31, 2012, all but one of the Schwab Equity Index Funds generated double-digit returns, as U.S. stocks solidly outperformed international equities. The continued low rate backdrop and governmental efforts to speed up economic growth supported the performance of U.S. stocks. The Federal Reserve extended its forecast for keeping short-term interest rates at 0-0.25% from late 2014 to mid-2015, and announced policies aimed at quickening the pace of economic expansion. Large-cap stocks generated higher returns than small-cap stocks, while value outperformed growth. From a sector standpoint, Health Care and Financials were two of the strongest performers, while Materials and Energy were two of the weakest.
 
The euro zone’s sovereign debt crisis represented an ongoing challenge, particularly for international equities. Overseas stocks endured particularly sharp losses in May amid concerns regarding Greek elections and worries that the crisis might spread. However, meaningful subsequent progress by European leaders helped international equities recover.

From the President continued
 

For the 12 months ended October 31, 2012, all but one of the Schwab Equity Index Funds generated double-digit returns, as U.S. stocks solidly outperformed international equities.

 
The outperformance of U.S. stocks compared with international equities was readily apparent when looking at several key performance gauges. Specifically, the S&P 500 Index returned 15.2%, the Russell 2000 Index returned 12.1%, and in U.S. dollar terms, the MSCI EAFE Index returned 5.2%.
 
Thank you for investing in the Schwab Equity Index Funds. We encourage you to review your investment portfolio regularly to ensure that it meets your current financial plan.

Schwab® S&P 500 Index Fund
 
 
The Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund (the fund) seeks to track the total return of the S&P 500 Index (the index), which includes the stocks of 500 leading U.S. publicly traded companies from a broad range of industries. To pursue its investment objective, the fund uses a replication investment approach and generally gives the same weight to a given stock as does the index. For more information concerning the fund’s investment objective, strategies, and risks, please see the fund’s prospectus.
 
The fund returned 15.09% for the 12-month period that ended October 31, 2012, compared with the index, which returned 15.21%. Because the return of the index does not include operational and transactional costs, the return of the fund tends to differ from that of the index.
 
Market Highlights. Large-cap U.S. stocks generated double-digit overall returns for the 12-month report period. The low-rate environment and governmental efforts aimed at increasing the pace of economic growth helped to support this performance. Challenges included the euro zone’s ongoing sovereign debt crisis, worries over the November elections, and the upcoming fiscal cliff—the potential expiration of many tax cuts and governmental spending policies in 2013.
 
Contributors and Detractors. The Financials sector was the biggest contributor to the fund’s total return. The large average weight of this sector reflected part of the reason for this contribution, with Financials stocks comprising more than 14% of the fund. Financials stocks also performed well, returning approximately 20%. One significant contributor in this sector was Wells Fargo & Co., a diversified financial services company. The fund’s Wells Fargo & Co. holdings returned more than 33% over the 12 months.
 
The Health Care sector, which represented an average weight of nearly 12% of the fund, also provided a meaningful total return contribution. The fund’s Health Care stocks returned approximately 22%, reflecting the overall performance of companies involved in health care and equipment services, biotechnology, and pharmaceuticals. One significant contributor in this sector was Pfizer Inc., a global pharmaceutical company. The fund’s Pfizer Inc. holdings returned more than 34% over the report period.
 
The Materials sector generated positive returns for the fund, but was the weakest total return contributor. The Materials sector represented an average weight of more than 3% of the fund, and returned more than 7%. One significant detractor in this sector was Newmont Mining Corporation, which acquires, explores, and develops mineral properties. The fund’s Newmont Mining Corporation holdings returned approximately -16%.

1 Fund expenses may have been partially absorbed by CSIM and its affiliates. Without these reductions, the fund’s returns would have been lower.
2 The pre-tax total returns 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 10/31/12 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 both the effects of taxable distributions and 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.

The Morningstar Category return represents all active and index mutual funds within the category as of the report date.
3 On September 9, 2009, the Investor Share class, Select Share class and e.Shares class were combined into a single class of shares of the fund. The past performance and financial history of the fund are that of the fund’s former Select Shares. On September 9, 2009, the Schwab Institutional Select S&P 500 Fund merged into the fund.
4 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.

Schwab 1000 Index® Fund
 
 
The Schwab 1000 Index Fund (the fund) seeks to match the total return of the Schwab 1000 Index (the index), which includes the stocks of the largest 1,000 publicly traded companies in the U.S., with size being determined by market capitalization (total market value of all shares outstanding). To pursue its investment objective, the fund uses a replication investment approach and generally gives the same weight to a given stock as does the index. For more information concerning the fund’s investment objective, strategies, and risks, please see the fund’s prospectus.
 
The fund returned 14.38% for the 12-month period that ended October 31, 2012, compared with the index, which returned 14.67%. Because the return of the index does not include operational and transactional costs, the return of the fund tends to differ from that of the index.

One significant contributor in this sector was Pfizer Inc., a global pharmaceutical company. The fund’s Pfizer Inc. holdings returned more than 34% over the report period.
 
The Materials sector generated positive returns for the fund, but was the weakest total return contributor. The Materials sector represented an average weight of nearly 4% of the fund, and returned approximately 10%.

Schwab Small-Cap Index Fund®
 
 
The Schwab Small-Cap Index Fund (the fund) seeks to track the total return of the Russell 2000 Index (the index), which is designed to measure the performance of the small-cap sector of the U.S. equity market. To pursue its investment objective, the fund uses a replication investment approach and generally gives the same weight to a given stock as does the index. For more information concerning the fund’s investment objective, strategies, and risks, please see the fund’s prospectus.
 
The fund returned 11.87% for the 12-month period that ended October 31, 2012. In December 2011, the fund transitioned from the Schwab Small-Cap Index, which returned 13.68% for the 12-month period, to the new index, which returned 12.08%. The Small-Cap Spliced Index returned 11.60% for the same period. In addition, the fund engaged in securities lending, which positively contributed to the fund’s performance versus the index. Because the return of an index does not include operational and transactional costs, the return of the fund tends to differ from that of an index.
 
Market Highlights. Small-cap U.S. stocks generated double-digit overall returns for the 12-month report period. The low-rate environment and governmental efforts aimed at increasing the pace of economic growth helped to support this performance. Challenges included the euro zone’s ongoing sovereign debt crisis, worries over the November elections, and the upcoming fiscal cliff—the potential expiration of many tax cuts and governmental spending policies in 2013.
 
Contributors and Detractors. The Financials sector was the biggest contributor to the fund’s return. The large average weight of this sector reflected part of the reason for this contribution, with Financials stocks comprising nearly 22% of the fund. The fund’s Financials stocks also performed well, returning almost 21%. One significant contributor in this sector was Ocwen Financial Corporation, a diversified financial services holding company. The fund’s Ocwen Financial Corporation holdings returned approximately 166% over the 12 months.
 
The Health Care sector, which represented an average weight of nearly 13% of the fund, also provided a meaningful contribution to the fund’s total return. The fund’s Health Care stocks returned more than 20%, reflecting the overall performance of companies involved in health care and equipment services, biotechnology, and pharmaceuticals. One significant contributor in this sector was Medivation Inc., a company involved in biomedical technologies. The fund’s Medivation Inc. holdings returned roughly 392% over the report period.
 
The Energy sector detracted the most from the fund’s total return. The Energy sector represented an average weight of more than 6% of the fund, and returned roughly -11%. One significant detractor in this sector was Bill Barrett Corporation, an independent oil and gas company. The fund’s Bill Barrett Corporation holdings returned approximately -45%.

Schwab Total Stock Market Index Fund®
 
 
The Schwab Total Stock Market Index Fund (the fund) seeks to track the total return of the entire U.S. stock market, as measured by the Dow Jones U.S. Total Stock Market Index (the index), which includes the stocks of all publicly traded companies headquartered in the U.S. for which pricing information is readily available—approximately 3,800 stocks. To pursue its investment objective, the funds uses a sampling investment approach that involves investing in a representative sample of stocks with similar risk and return characteristics as the index, and maintains a tight allocation across all sectors, market capitalizations, and valuation measures compared with the index. For more information concerning the fund’s investment objective, strategies, and risks, please see the fund’s prospectus.
 
The fund returned 14.71% for the 12-month period that ended October 31, 2012, compared with the index, which returned 14.73%. Because the return of the index does not include operational and transactional costs, the return of the fund tends to differ from that of the index.
 
Market Highlights. U.S. stocks generated double-digit overall returns for the 12-month report period. Governmental efforts aimed at increasing the pace of economic growth and the low-rate environment helped to support this performance. Challenges included the euro zone’s ongoing sovereign debt crisis, worries over the November elections, and the upcoming fiscal cliff—the potential expiration of many tax cuts and governmental spending policies in 2013.
 
Contributors and Detractors. The Financials sector was the biggest contributor to the fund’s return. The large average weight of this sector reflected part of the reason for this contribution, with Financials stocks comprising approximately 16% of the fund. Financials stocks also performed well, returning more than 19% for the fund. One significant contributor in this sector was Wells Fargo & Co., a diversified financial services company. The fund’s Wells Fargo & Co. holdings returned more than 33% over the 12 months.
 
The Health Care sector, which represented an average weight of approximately 12% of the fund, also provided a meaningful contribution to the fund’s total return. The fund’s Health Care stocks returned more than 22%, reflecting the overall performance of companies involved in health care and equipment services, biotechnology, and pharmaceuticals. One significant contributor in this sector was Pfizer Inc., a global pharmaceutical company. The fund’s Pfizer Inc. holdings returned more than 34% over the report period.
 
The Utilities sector generated positive returns for the fund, but was the weakest total return contributor. The Utilities sector represented an average weight of approximately 4% of the fund, and returned roughly 11%. One significant detractor in this sector was Exelon Corporation, a utility services holding company. The fund’s Exelon Corporation holdings returned approximately -15%.

Schwab Equity Index Funds 13

Schwab International Index Fund®
 
 
The Schwab International Index Fund (the fund) seeks to track the performance of the MSCI EAFE Index (the index), which measures the total return of large, publicly traded non-U.S. companies from international countries with developed equity markets. To pursue its investment objective, the fund uses a replication investment approach and generally gives the same weight to a given stock as does the index. For more information concerning the fund’s investment objective, strategies, and risks, please see the fund’s prospectus.
 
The fund returned 6.07% for the 12 months ended October 31, 2012. In December 2011, the fund transitioned from the Schwab International Index (net), which returned 4.78% for the 12-month period, to the new index, which returned 5.15%. The International Spliced Index returned 5.05% for the same period. Because the return of the index does not include operational and transactional costs, the return of the fund tends to differ from that of the index. In addition, timing differences in foreign exchange calculations and fair valuation of the fund’s holdings contributed positively to the fund’s relative performance.*
 
Market Highlights. The euro zone’s sovereign debt crisis and decelerating economic growth represented challenges for international stocks. However, meaningful eventual progress by European leaders toward resolving the crisis helped, while major currencies finished mixed versus the U.S. dollar.
 
Contributors and Detractors. U.K. stocks were the biggest contributors to the fund’s total return from a country perspective, and represented an average weight of more than 22%. U.K. investments benefitted from being alternatives to the crisis-plagued euro zone, and returned approximately 9% for the fund in U.S. dollar terms. HSBC Holdings plc—an international banking and financial services company—was a significant contributor in this market, with the fund’s holdings returning more than 18%.
 
The fund’s Canadian stocks returned approximately -8% in U.S. dollar terms, the biggest detractors from a country standpoint. Holdings of Canadian companies represented a 9% weight in the fund prior to the index conversion, and these holdings were subsequently eliminated.

Foreign securities can involve risks such as political and economic instability and currency risk.
 
* Typically, the securities in the index are valued using foreign exchange rates obtained at the close of the London foreign currency exchange (11:00 AM EST). Securities in the fund, however, are valued using foreign exchange rates obtained at the close of the New York foreign currency exchange (4:00 PM EST). This difference in closing times can result in different foreign currency exchange rates between the two exchanges, and thus different foreign currency exchange rates used in the valuation of the index’s and fund’s securities.

Source for category information: Morningstar, Inc. Some funds in this category may not use tax-efficient strategies, including this fund. The Morningstar Category return represents all active and index mutual funds within the category as of the report date.

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, 2012 and held through October 31, 2012.
 
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.

Each fund in this report offers one share class. Shares are bought and sold (subject to a redemption fee, see financial note 10) at closing net asset value per share (“NAV”), which is the price for all outstanding shares of the funds. Each share has a par value of 1/1,000 of a cent, and the funds’ Board of Trustees (the “Board”) 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:
 
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the funds use in their preparation of financial statements. The accounting policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
 
(a) Security Valuation:
 
Under procedures approved by the Board, the investment adviser has formed a Pricing Committee to administer the pricing and valuation of portfolio securities and other assets and to ensure that prices used for internal purposes or provided by third parties reasonably reflect fair market value. Among other things, these procedures allow the funds to utilize independent pricing services, quotations from securities and financial instrument dealers and other market sources to determine fair value.
 
The funds value the securities in their portfolios every business day. The funds use the following policies to value various types of securities:
 
  •  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 at halfway between the most recent bid and ask quotes. Securities that are primarily traded on foreign exchanges are valued at the official closing price or the last sales price on the exchange where the securities are

  principally traded with these values then translated into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rate, unless these securities are fair valued as discussed below.
 
  •  Securities for which no quoted value is available: The Board has adopted procedures to fair value each fund’s securities when market prices are not “readily available” or are unreliable. For example, a fund may fair value a security when it is de-listed or its trading is halted or suspended; when a security’s primary pricing source is unable or unwilling to provide a price; or when a security’s primary trading market is closed during regular market hours. Each fund makes fair value determinations in good faith in accordance with the fund’s valuation procedures. The Pricing Committee considers a number of factors, including unobservable market inputs when arriving at fair value. The Pricing Committee may employ techniques such as the review of related or comparable assets or liabilities, related market activities, recent transactions, market multiples, book values, transactional back-testing, disposition analysis and other relevant information. The Pricing Committee regularly reviews these inputs and assumptions to calibrate the valuations. The Board convenes on a regular basis to review fair value determinations made by the funds pursuant to the procedures.
 
  •  International fair valuation: The Board has adopted procedures to fair value foreign equity securities that are traded in markets that close prior to the funds valuing 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 comparative 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 regularly reviews fair value determinations made by the funds pursuant to the procedures.
 
  •  Futures and forward foreign currency exchange contracts: valued at their settlement prices as of the close of their exchanges (for futures) or at a value based on that day’s forward 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.
 
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 measurements) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (Level 3 measurements). If the funds determine that either the volume and/or level of activity for an asset or liability has significantly decreased (from normal conditions for that asset or liability) or price quotations or observable inputs are not associated with orderly transactions, increased analysis and management judgment will be required to estimate fair value.
 
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
 
  •  Level 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 and futures contracts. Investments in underlying funds are valued at their NAV daily and are classified as Level 1 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 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 fair valuations due to significant movement in the U.S. markets occurring after the daily

  close of the foreign markets. The Board has approved a vendor that calculates fair valuations of international equity 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 levels associated with valuing the funds’ investments as of October 31, 2012 are disclosed in the Portfolio Holdings.
 
(b) Accounting Policies for certain Portfolio Investments (if held):
 
Futures Contracts: 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. A fund must give the broker a deposit of cash and/or securities (initial margin) whenever it enters into the futures contract. The amount of the deposit may vary from one contract to another. 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 until the contract is closed, at which time the gains or losses are realized. Futures are traded publicly on exchanges, and their market value changes daily.
 
Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts: “Forwards”, as they are known, are contracts to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The value of the forwards is accounted for as unrealized gains or losses until the contracts settle, at which time the gains or losses are realized.
 
Securities Lending: Under the trusts’ Securities Lending Program, a fund (lender) may make short-term loans of its securities to another party (borrower) to generate additional revenue for the fund. The borrower pledges collateral in the form of cash, securities issued or fully guaranteed by the U.S. government or foreign governments, or letters of credit issued by a bank. Collateral at the individual loan level is required to have a value of at least 102% of the prior day’s market value of the loaned securities for securities traded on U.S. exchanges and a value of at least 105% for all other securities and is marked to market daily. The cash collateral of securities loaned is invested in money market portfolios operating under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act. Securities lending income, as disclosed in a fund’s Statement of Operations, if applicable, represents the income earned from the investment of the cash collateral plus any fees paid by borrowers, less the fees paid to the lending agent which are subject to adjustments pursuant to the securities lending agreement.
 
If applicable, the value of the securities on loan as of October 31, 2012 and the value of the related collateral are disclosed in the complete Portfolio Holdings and the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
 
(c) Security Transactions:
 
Security transactions are recorded as of the date the order to buy or sell the security is executed. Realized gains or losses from security transactions are based on the identified costs of the securities involved.
 
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. Realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
 
trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and the difference between the recorded amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from changes in foreign exchange rates on foreign denominated assets and liabilities other than investments in securities held at the end of the reporting period. These realized and unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses are reported in foreign currency transactions or translations in the Statement of Operations. 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 are subject to non-U.S. taxes. In those instances, 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 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.
 
Income received from foreign sources may result in withholding tax. Withholding taxes are accrued at the same time as the related income if the tax rate is fixed and known, unless a tax withheld is reclaimable from the local tax authorities in which case it is recorded as receivable. If the tax rate is not known or estimable, such expense or reclaim receivable is recorded when the net proceeds are received.
 
(e) Expenses:
 
Expenses that are specific to a 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 funds make distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, once a year.
 
(g) Custody Credit:
 
Certain funds have an arrangement with their custodian bank, 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 to GAAP. Notwithstanding this, shareholders should understand that in order to follow these principles, fund management has to make estimates and assumptions that affect the information reported in the financial statements. It’s possible that once the results are known, they may turn out to be different from these estimates and these differences may be material.
 
(i) Federal Income Taxes:
 
The funds intend to meet federal income and excise tax requirements for regulated investment companies. 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) Foreign Taxes:
 
The funds may be subject to foreign taxes (a portion of which may be reclaimable) on income, corporate events, foreign currency exchanges and capital gains on investments. All foreign taxes are recorded in accordance with the applicable foreign tax regulations and rates that exist in foreign markets in which the funds invest. These foreign taxes, if any, are paid by the funds and are disclosed in the Statement of Operations. Foreign taxes payable as of October 31, 2012, if any, are reflected in the funds’ Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
 
(k) 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.
 
(l) New Accounting Pronouncements:
 
In December 2011, Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-11, “Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities,” was issued and is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after January 1, 2013. The ASU enhances disclosure requirements with respect to an entity’s rights of offset and related arrangements associated with its financial and derivative instruments. Management is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2011-11 may have on the funds’ financial statement disclosures.
 
3. Risk Factors:
 
Investing in the funds may involve certain risks, as discussed in the funds’ prospectus, including, but not limited to, those described below. Any of these risks could cause an investor to lose money.
 
Stock markets rise and fall daily. As with any investment whose performance is tied to these markets, the value of the investment in a fund will fluctuate, which means that investors 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. In addition, equity markets tend to move in cycles, which may cause stock prices to fall over short or extended periods of time.
 
As an index fund, each 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 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 certain securities in the benchmark index, or match the securities’ weightings to the benchmark index, 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.
 
Each fund invests in companies measured by its respective index. It follows these stocks during upturns as well as downturns. Because of its indexing strategy, a fund does not take steps to reduce market exposure or to lessen the effects of a declining market. In addition, because of a fund’s expenses, the fund’s performance may be below that of the index.
 
If a fund uses a sampling method, the fund will not fully replicate the 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. If a 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.
 
To the extent that a fund’s or the index’s portfolio is concentrated in the securities of issuers in a particular market, industry, group of industries, sector, country or asset class, the fund may be adversely affected by the performance of those securities, may be subject to increased price volatility and may be more susceptible to adverse economic, market, political or regulatory occurrences affecting that market, industry, group of industries, sector, country or asset class.
 
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

3. Risk Factors (continued):
 
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 small-cap holdings could reduce performance.
 
Both large- and mid-cap stocks tend to go in and out of favor based on market and economic conditions. However, stocks of mid-cap companies tend to be more volatile than those of large-cap companies because mid-cap companies tend to be more susceptible to adverse business or economic events than larger more established companies. During a period when large- and mid-cap U.S. stocks fall behind other types of investments — bonds, for instance — a fund’s large- and mid-cap holdings could reduce performance.
 
A fund’s investments in securities of foreign issuers may involve certain risks that are greater than those associated with investments in securities of U.S. issuers. These include risks of adverse changes in foreign economic, political, regulatory and other conditions; changes in currency exchange rates or exchange control regulations (including limitations on currency movements and exchanges); differing accounting, auditing, financial reporting and legal standards and practices; differing securities market structures; and higher transaction costs.
 
To the extent a fund’s investments in a single country or a limited number of countries represent a higher percentage of the fund’s assets, the fund assumes the risk that economic, political and social conditions in those countries will have a significant impact on its investment performance and it may be subject to increased price volatility.
 
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. Certain of these risks, such as liquidity risk and market risk, are discussed elsewhere in this section. A fund’s use of derivatives is also subject to credit risk, leverage risk, lack of availability risk, valuation risk, correlation risk and tax risk. Lack of availability risk is the risk that suitable derivative transactions may not be available in all circumstances for risk management or other purposes. Credit risk is the risk that the counterparty to a derivatives transaction may not fulfill its obligations. Leverage risk is the risk that a small percentage of assets invested in derivatives can have a disproportionately larger impact on a fund. Valuation risk is the risk that a particular derivative may be valued incorrectly. Correlation risk is the risk that changes in the value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index. Tax risk is the risk that the use of derivatives may cause the fund to realize higher amounts of short-term capital gain. These risks could cause a fund to lose more than the principal amount invested.
 
A particular investment may be difficult to purchase or sell. A fund may be unable to sell illiquid securities at an advantageous time or price.
 
Securities lending involves the risk of loss of rights in the collateral or delay in recovery of the collateral if the borrower fails to return the security loaned or becomes insolvent.
 
Please refer to the funds’ prospectus for a more complete description of the principal risks of investing in the funds.
 
4. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions:
 
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 CSIM and each trust.
 
For its advisory and administrative services to the Schwab 1000 Index Fund, CSIM is entitled to receive an annual fee, payable monthly, based on a percentage of the fund’s average daily net assets as follows:

The Board has adopted a Shareholder Servicing Plan (the “Plan”) on behalf of the funds. The Plan enables each fund to bear expenses relating to the provision by service providers, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (a broker-dealer affiliate of CSIM, “Schwab”), of certain account maintenance, customer liaison and shareholder services to the current shareholders of the funds. Schwab serves as the funds’ paying agent under the Plan for making payments of the shareholder service fee due to the service providers (other than Schwab) under the Plan. All shareholder service fees paid by the funds to Schwab in its capacity as the funds’ paying agent will be passed through to the service providers, and Schwab will not retain any portion of such fees.
 
Pursuant to the Plan, each fund’s shares are subject to an annual shareholder servicing fee up to the amount set forth in the table below. The shareholder servicing fee paid to a particular service provider is made pursuant to its written agreement with Schwab (or, in the case of payments made to Schwab, pursuant to Schwab’s written agreement with the funds). Payments under the Plan are made as described above regardless of Schwab’s or the service provider’s actual cost of providing the services. If the cost of providing the services under the Plan is less than the payments received, the unexpended portion of the fees may be retained as profit by Schwab or the service provider.

Although these agreements specify certain fees for these services, CSIM and its affiliates have made an additional agreement (“expense limitation”) with the funds, for so long as CSIM serves as the investment adviser to the funds, which may only be amended or terminated with the approval of the Board, to limit the total annual fund operating expenses, excluding interest, taxes and certain non-routine expenses.

Certain other related parties may own shares of Schwab funds in this report. As of October 31, 2012, the shares owned by Schwab Charitable Giving Trust (an affiliate of Schwab) as a percentage of the total shares of the Schwab Small Cap Index Fund and the Schwab Total Stock Market Fund were 2.0% and 5.0%, respectively.
 
The funds may engage in 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/or officers. For the period ended October 31, 2012, the funds had no direct 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 with 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 by the Board. The funds had no interfund borrowing or lending activity during the period.
 
During the period, the Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund, Schwab Small-Cap Index Fund, Schwab Total Stock Market Index Fund and Schwab International Index Fund received a payment of $27,175, $4,304, $11,512 and $6,103, respectively, related to state filing fees resulting from revised fee calculation methodologies being applied on sales of the funds’ shares in prior periods. These payments are presented in each fund’s Statement of Operations as “State filing fee reimbursement”.
 
All or a portion of the state filing fees were previously borne by CSIM through a waiver of CSIM’s management fee. As this expense was previously waived, the payments received during the period had the effect of decreasing the total “Expense reduction by CSIM and its affiliates” in each fund’s Statement of Operations. The current net operating expense ratio was not impacted by this payment.
 
5. Transfer Agent Services:
 
Boston Financial Data Services, Inc. provides transfer agent services for each fund.

6. Board of Trustees:
 
Trustees may include people who are officers and/or directors of the investment adviser or its affiliates. Federal securities law limits the percentage of such “interested persons” who may serve on a trust’s board, and the trust was in compliance with these limitations throughout the report period. The trust did not pay any of these interested persons for their services as trustees, but it did pay non-interested persons (independent trustees), as noted in each fund’s Statement of Operations.
 
7. Borrowing from Banks:
 
The funds have access to custodian overdraft facilities, a committed line of credit of $150 million with State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”), 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 & Co. 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 for the committed line of credit.
 
There were no borrowings from the lines of credit by the funds during the period. However, the funds may have utilized their overdraft facility and incurred interest expense, which is disclosed in the Statement of Operations, if any. The interest expense is determined based on a negotiated rate above the current Federal Funds Rate.
 
8. Purchases and Sales/Maturities of Investment Securities:
 
For the period ended October 31, 2012, purchases and sales/maturities of securities (excluding short-term obligations) were as follows:

9. Derivatives:
 
Certain funds entered into equity index futures contracts (“futures”) during the report period. The funds invested in futures to equitize available cash. The fair value and due to brokers for futures contracts held at October 31, 2012 and the net realized/unrealized gains (losses) on futures contracts held during the period ended October 31, 2012 are presented on the face of the Portfolio Holdings, Statement of Assets and Liabilities and Statement of Operations, respectively. Refer to financial note 2(b) for the funds’ accounting policies with respect to futures contracts and financial note 3 for disclosures concerning the risks of investing in futures contracts. During the period, the month-end average values of futures contracts held by the funds and the month-end average number of contracts held 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 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.
 
Permanent book and tax basis differences may result in reclassifications between components of net assets as required. The adjustments will have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. As of October 31, 2012, the funds made the following reclassifications:

As of October 31, 2012, 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, 2012, the funds did not incur any interest or penalties.
 
On December 22, 2010, the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (“the Act”) was signed by the President. The Act is the first major piece of legislation affecting Regulated Investment Companies (“RICs”) since 1986 and it modernizes several of the federal income and excise tax provisions related to RICs.
 
Certain of the enacted provisions include:
 
Post-enactment capital losses may now be carried forward indefinitely, but must retain the character of the original loss. However, such losses must be utilized prior to the pre-enactment capital losses, which increases the likelihood that the pre-enactment capital losses will expire unused. Under pre-enactment law, capital losses could be carried forward for eight years, and carried forward as short-term capital loss, irrespective of the character of the original loss. The Act contains simplification provisions, which are aimed at preventing disqualification of a RIC for “inadvertent” failures of the asset diversification and/or qualifying income tests. Additionally, the Act exempts RICs from the preferential dividend rule, and repeals the 60-day designation requirement for certain types of pay-through income and gains.

Finally, the Act contains several provisions aimed at preserving the character of distributions made by a fiscal year RIC during the portion of its taxable year ending after October 31 or December 31, reducing the circumstances under which a RIC might be required to file amended Forms 1099 to restate previously reported distributions.
 
The funds have adopted the noted provisions of the Act for the period ending October 31, 2012.

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, 2012, and the results of their operations for the year then ended, changes in 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, 2012 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. 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. As part of the renewal process, Independent Trustees’ legal counsel sends an information request letter to CSIM seeking certain relevant information. The responses by CSIM are provided to the Trustees for their review prior to their meeting, and the Trustees are provided with the opportunity to request any additional materials. 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 24, 2012, and June 5, 2012, and approved the renewal of the Agreements with respect to the Funds for an additional one year term at the meeting held on June 5, 2012. 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 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 exchange-traded 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, 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 category of other mutual funds and appropriate indices/ benchmarks, in light of total return, and market trends. As part of this review, the Trustees considered the composition of the peer category, selection criteria and the reputation of the third party who prepared the 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 a peer group of 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 CSIM’s contractual commitment to keep each Fund’s 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 exchange-traded funds. 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 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. 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 twenty years as a trustee, whichever comes first. In addition, the Schwab Funds retirement policy also requires any independent trustee of the Schwab Funds who also serves as an independent trustee of the Laudus Funds to retire from the Boards of the Schwab Funds upon their required retirement date from either the Boards of Trustees of the Schwab Funds or the Laudus Funds, whichever comes first.
2 Mr. Schwab and Mr. Bettinger are Interested Trustees because they are employees of Schwab. In addition to their employment with Schwab, Messrs. Schwab and Bettinger also own stock of The Charles Schwab Corporation, the parent company of Schwab and the investment adviser.
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.

Table of Contents

 
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.
 
Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index A broad-based benchmark that measures the investment grade, U.S. dollar-denominated, fixed-rate taxable bond market, including Treasuries, government-related and corporate securities, mortgage-back securities (agency fixed-rate and hybrid ARM passthroughs), asset-backed securities, and commercial mortgage-backed securities.
 
beta A historical measure of an investment’s volatility relative to a market index (usually the S&P 500®). 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.
 
gross domestic product (GDP) The output of goods and services produced by labor and property located in the United States.
 
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.
 
MSCI EAFE Index A free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed markets, excluding the U.S. & Canada.
 
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.
 
Russell 2000 Index An index that measures the performance of the small-cap segment of the U.S. equity universe.
 
S&P 500 Index A market capitalization index that is designed to measure the performance of 500 leading publicly held companies in leading industries of the U.S. economy.
 
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

Marie Chandoha is President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. and the funds covered in this report.

 
Dear Shareholder,
 
As President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc., I’d like to thank you for trusting us to help you meet your investment objectives, and for reading this important report concerning the Schwab Active Equity Funds. Each Schwab Active Equity Fund employs a process to build a portfolio that seeks to provide a balance between risk and expected returns. To aid in its stock selection process, each fund utilizes Schwab Equity Ratings®, which represents Schwab’s proprietary approach to evaluating equity securities.
 
For the 12 months ended October 31, 2012, all but one of the Schwab Active Equity Funds generated double-digit returns, as U.S. stocks solidly outperformed international equities. Low interest rates and governmental efforts to encourage faster economic growth helped U.S. stocks generate positive returns, even as corporate earnings growth generally decelerated. The Federal Reserve extended its forecast for keeping short-term interest rates at 0-0.25% from late 2014 to mid-2015, extended “Operation Twist”—a policy of buying long-term securities and selling short-term Treasuries—and announced plans to purchase additional agency mortgage-backed securities. Value stocks generally outperformed growth stocks, while large-cap stocks posted bigger gains than small-caps. Health Care and Financials were some of the better performing sectors, while Energy and Materials comparatively underperformed.
 
Internationally, the euro zone’s sovereign debt crisis represented an ongoing challenge. With concerns regarding elections in Greece and worries that the crisis might spread, international equities endured sharp losses in May. Subsequently, European leaders achieved meaningful progress, and overseas stocks

Schwab Core Equity Fund™
 
 
The Schwab Core Equity Fund (the fund) seeks long-term capital growth. To pursue its investment objective, the fund primarily invests in U.S. stocks. The fund expects to hold the common stocks of U.S companies that have market capitalizations of approximately $500 million or more. To aid its stock selection, the fund uses Schwab Equity Ratings. For more information concerning the fund’s investment objective, strategies, and risks, please see the fund’s prospectus.
 
The fund returned 13.99% for the 12 months ended October 31, 2012, underperforming the S&P 500 Index (the index), which the fund uses for performance comparisons. The index returned 15.21% for the report period.
 
Market Highlights. All sectors within the index generated positive returns for the 12 months, as equities benefitted from the low-rate environment and governmental efforts to speed up economic growth. The Telecommunication Services and Health Care sectors performed particularly well, while the Energy and Materials sectors generated positive returns but underperformed other sectors. Stocks with mid- to low price-to-earnings ratios generally returned more than stocks with high price-to-earnings ratios, while shares of companies with low price-to-book ratios generally provided more substantial returns than shares of companies with high price-to-book ratios.
 
Positioning and Strategies. The fund’s strategic over- and underweights among various market-capitalization groups generally reduced the fund’s performance relative to the index, but solid stock selection within these groups provided an effective performance counterbalance. One example was the fund’s underweight compared with the index in companies with market capitalizations greater than $50 billion, which detracted from the fund’s performance compared with the index as large-cap stocks outperformed small-cap shares. However, the fund’s stock choices among market-capitalization ranges, particularly in stocks of companies with market capitalizations of $10 billion or less, enhanced the fund’s relative performance.
 
The fund held generally in-line sector weightings compared with the index, while stock selection results within these sectors varied. For example, holdings in the Consumer Discretionary sector enhanced the fund’s performance. One significant contributor in this sector was PetSmart, Inc., a specialty retailer of pet products and services. The fund’s PetSmart, Inc. holdings returned approximately 43% for the fund for the 12-month report period, and the fund’s overweight in this company compared with the index enhanced performance. Stock selection within the Information Technology sector generated less favorable results, with Dell Inc—a computer hardware manufacturer—representing a significant detractor. The fund’s Dell Inc. holdings returned approximately -31% for the period. When combined with the fund’s overweight in the company compared with the index, this position detracted from the fund’s relative performance.
 
The results of the fund’s over- and underweights among valuation groups relative to the index, and stock selection within these groups, varied. Weightings within price-to-book groups generated positive overall results compared with the index, although stock choices among these groups almost equally detracted from the fund’s relative performance. Among price-to-earnings groups, stock selection generated positive overall results, while weightings within these groups reduced performance.

Schwab Dividend Equity Fund™
 
 
The Schwab Dividend Equity Fund (the fund) seeks current income and capital appreciation. Under normal circumstances, the fund invests at least 80% of its net assets in dividend-paying common and preferred stocks. To aid its stock selection, the fund uses Schwab Equity Ratings. For more information concerning the fund’s investment objective, strategies, and risks, please see the fund’s prospectus.
 
The fund returned 12.65% for the 12 months ended October 31, 2012, underperforming the S&P 500 Index (the index), which the fund uses for performance comparisons. The index returned 15.21% for the report period. As of October 31, 2012, the fund’s dividend yield was 2.84%, higher than the 2.24% dividend yield of the index. As of October 31, 2012, the fund’s 30-Day SEC yield was 1.80%.
 
Market Highlights. The low-rate backdrop and governmental efforts to quicken the pace of economic growth helped U.S. stocks generate solid returns for the 12-month report period, enabling all sectors in the index to provide positive returns. Telecommunication Services and Health Care stocks performed particularly well, generating returns of more than 20%, while Energy and Materials stocks provided positive returns, but underperformed equities in other sectors. Stocks with mid- to lower P/E ratios generated mixed performances compared with stocks with higher P/E ratios, while shares of companies with the lowest price-to-book ratios generally provided larger returns than shares of companies with higher price-to-book ratios.
 
Positioning and Strategies. The outperformance of stocks in the index that do not pay dividends represented a significant catalyst for the fund’s underperformance of the index, while stock selection within sectors and market-capitalization groups also limited the fund’s relative performance.
 
Stock selection within the Information Technology sector provided an example. Apple Inc.—a company that designs, manufactures, and markets communications equipment—generated returns of approximately 48% for the index during the 12-month report period, and these holdings represented a meaningful position within the index’s Information Technology position. However, the fund did not hold Apple Inc. shares as the valuation models employed by the fund steered the investment adviser away from this company, and therefore was unable to benefit directly from the stock’s rally.
 
The fund’s choices among Consumer Discretionary stocks were more effective. For example, the fund’s holdings of Home Depot, Inc.—a home improvement retailer—returned approximately 76% for the 12-month period. As a result, the fund’s overweight in this company enhanced performance compared with the index.
 
Weightings within price-to-book groups generated positive overall results compared with the index, although underperforming stock selections among these categories resulted in a negative overall performance impact. Stock selection among price-to-earnings groups also reduced the fund’s relative performance, as did stock choices among market-capitalization groups.

Schwab Large-Cap Growth Fund™
 
 
The Schwab Large-Cap Growth Fund (the fund) seeks long-term capital growth. To pursue its investment objective, the fund primarily invests in U.S. common stocks. Under normal circumstances, the fund invests at least 80% of its net assets in large-cap stocks of U.S. companies. To aid its stock selection, the fund uses Schwab Equity Ratings. For more information concerning the fund’s investment objective, strategies, and risks, please see the fund’s prospectus.
 
The fund returned 12.18% for the 12 months ended October 31, 2012, underperforming the Russell 1000 Growth Index (the index), which the fund uses for performance comparisons. The index returned 13.02% for the report period.
 
Market Highlights. All sectors within the index generated positive returns for the 12 months, as large-cap U.S. stocks benefitted from the low-rate environment and governmental efforts to speed up economic growth. The Telecommunication Services and Health Care sectors performed particularly well, while the Utilities and Materials sectors generated positive returns but underperformed other sectors. Stocks with mid- to low price-to-earnings ratios generally returned more than stocks with the highest price-to-earnings ratios, while shares of companies with the highest price-to-book ratios generally provided more substantial returns than shares of companies with low price-to-book ratios.
 
Positioning and Strategies. Stock selection among the various sectors generally detracted from the fund’s performance compared with the index. Stock selection within the Information Technology sector generated particularly unfavorable results, with Western Union Company—a global money transfer services corporation—representing a significant detractor. The fund’s Western Union Company holdings returned approximately -27% for the period, and when combined with the fund’s overweight compared with the index, reduced the fund’s relative performance. Stock selection among Health Care companies also limited the fund’s relative return, while overweights in the Energy and Telecommunication Services sectors relative to the index modestly benefitted the fund.
 
Stock selection among the various market-capitalization groups enhanced the fund’s overall performance relative to the index, while the fund’s comparative weightings of these groups helped modestly. The fund’s stock choices among companies with market capitalizations of $5 billion or less were particularly effective, adding to the fund’s performance compared with the index. However, stock choices in companies with market capitalizations of $10 to $50 billion represented notable performance detractors.
 
The results of the fund’s over- and underweights among valuation groups relative to the index, and stock selection within these groups, varied. Among price-to-earnings groups, stock selection comfortably outweighed the negative impact of the fund’s allocations relative to the index. Weightings within price-to-book groups generated negative overall results compared with the index, although stock choices among these groups more than compensated for this performance.

The fund returned 13.57% for the 12 months ended October 31, 2012, comfortably outperforming the Russell 2000 Index (the index), which the fund uses for performance comparisons. The index returned 12.08% for the report period.
 
Market Highlights. Nearly all sectors within the index generated positive returns for the 12 months, as small-cap U.S. stocks benefitted from the low-rate environment and governmental efforts to speed up economic growth. Large-cap companies were perceived as greater beneficiaries from the low-rate environment than small-cap companies, while shares of small-cap companies generally endured higher overall market volatility compared with large-cap stocks. Small-cap U.S. stocks generally underperformed large-cap shares amid this backdrop. From a sector standpoint, Financials stocks performed particularly well in spite of intermittent bouts of volatility, rebounding from 2011 lows. By comparison, the Energy sector generated negative returns, hurt by worries about lackluster global growth, even as increased supplies from U.S. oil and shale gas exploration weighed on prices.
 
Positioning and Strategies. Effective stock selections across market sectors, market-capitalization groups, and valuation measures compared with the index enabled the fund’s outperformance of the index. For example, the Consumer Discretionary sector generated double-digit returns for the 12 months, and Charming Shoppes, Inc.—a women’s specialty apparel retailer—was a significant contributor. The fund’s Charming Shoppes, Inc. holdings returned approximately 111% for the fund for the 12-month report period, benefitting from the company’s acquisition by the Ascena Retail Group. When combined with the fund’s overweight in this company compared with the index, this position enhanced the fund’s performance compared with the index. Not all stock selections worked out as favorably, with holdings in the economically sensitive Industrials sector illustrating this point. EnergySolutions, Inc.—a technical service provider to the nuclear industry—was a significant detractor in this sector, with the fund’s holdings returning approximately -44% and detracting from the fund’s relative performance.
 
Stock selections in the various market-capitalization groups enhanced the fund’s overall performance relative to the index, with holdings performing particularly well among companies with market capitalizations of $500 million to $2 billion. From a valuation standpoint, the fund generally emphasized less expensive stocks compared with the index, benefitting the fund’s relative performance. Specifically, weightings in price-to-earnings groups and in price-to-book groups enhanced relative performance, while overall stock choices among these groups generated even greater performance benefits for the fund.

Schwab Hedged Equity Fund™
 
 
The Schwab Hedged Equity Fund (the fund) seeks long-term capital appreciation over market cycles with lower volatility than the broad equity market. To pursue its investment objective, the fund will establish long and short positions in equity securities issued by U.S. companies. The fund typically purchases or sells short stocks of companies that have market capitalizations of $1 billion or more at the time the stock is purchased or sold short. To aid its stocks selection, the fund uses Schwab Equity Ratings. For more information concerning the fund’s investment objective, strategies, and risks, please see the fund’s prospectus.
 
The fund returned 6.79% for the 12 months ended October 31, 2012, significantly underperforming the S&P 500 Index (the index), which the fund uses for performance comparisons. The index returned 15.21% for the report period.
 
Market Highlights. U.S. equities generated impressive returns amid the low-rate environment and governmental efforts to quicken the pace of economic growth. Stocks started out on rocky footing, as the euro zone’s sovereign debt crisis and a subsequent sharp increase in financial market volatility pushed investors toward perceived safe havens. As meaningful progress in Europe emerged, and as the Federal Reserve continued to support an economic recovery in the U.S., investors shifted back into stocks. From a sector perspective, Telecommunication Services stocks outperformed equities in other sectors, while stocks of Energy companies comparatively underperformed.
 
Positioning and Strategies. Throughout the 12-month report period, the fund held short positions of approximately 39% of net assets on average. Given the substantial rally by stocks, most of these short positions significantly detracted from the fund’s return compared with that of the index, and provided a key reason for the performance disparity between the two.
 
The fund’s allocations across market sectors also weighed on performance compared with the index, particularly among the Energy and Health Care sectors, although stock selection strategies generally enhanced the fund’s performance. Not all sector strategies generated negative results, with the fund’s positions in Information Technology stocks providing one example. The fund’s overweight in this sector compared with the index benefited relative performance as the fund’s long positions returned approximately 12%, outperforming those of the index. The fund’s short positions in this sector also enhanced the fund’s relative performance. For example, the fund shorted the stock of ADTRAN, Inc.—a communications equipment servicer—which enhanced relative returns as the fund’s shares of this company fell by roughly 42% during the period.
 
From a valuation standpoint, stock selection in price-to-book and price-to-earnings groups yielded disappointing results. The fund’s stock choices among small-cap stocks generally benefitted the fund by comparison, as did a relative overweighting in this market-capitalization group, while allocations and stock selections among other market-capitalization ranges generally detracted from the fund’s 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 Fund™
 
 
The Schwab Financial Services Fund (the fund) seeks long-term capital growth. To pursue its goal, the fund primarily invests in equity securities issued by companies in the financial services sector. To aid its stock selection, the fund uses Schwab Equity Ratings. For more information concerning the fund’s investment objective, strategies, and risks, please see the fund’s prospectus.
 
The fund returned 16.92% for the 12 months ended October 31, 2012, underperforming the S&P 1500 SuperComposite Financials Sector Index (the index), which the fund uses for performance comparisons. The index returned 19.67% for the report period.
 
Market Highlights. U.S. stocks generated impressive returns for the 12 months, benefitting from the low-rate environment and governmental efforts to support economic growth. Diversified Financials, Regional Banks, and Life & Health Insurance stocks comprise a meaningful percentage of the index, and each of these industries generated double-digit returns for the 12 months, returning approximately 25%, 22%, and 10%, respectively. Banks and companies offering diversified financial services in particular benefitted from the low interest-rate environment, which made their products potentially more affordable for borrowers. From a market-capitalization standpoint, the largest financial firms generally outperformed the smallest financial firms, while stocks with the highest price-to-earnings ratios and shares of companies with the lowest price-to-book ratios generally produced the highest returns.
 
Positioning and Strategies. The fund’s overall stock selections detracted from performance compared with the index, while over- and underweights within industries weighed even more heavily on the fund’s relative performance. For example, stock selection in Diversified Financials subtracted meaningfully from the fund’s performance, with an underweight in holdings of Citigroup, Inc.—a diversified financial services company—providing one example, as Citigroup, Inc. stock returned almost 19% for the index. The fund’s weighting compared with the index in the Specialized Finance industry, as well as stock choices therein, detracted from the fund’s performance as well.
 
An overweight in Regional Banks and stock selections within this industry generated far more beneficial results. Given the double-digit returns of Regional Banks and relative outperformance compared with many other areas in the broader sector, the fund’s relative overweight enhanced performance. Diminishing concerns over foreclosures provided an important support for this industry, while the fund’s holdings of Regions Financial Corporation—a regional, multi-bank holding company—provided an example of solid stock selection by the fund. Holdings of this company returned approximately 67% for the report period, and when combined with the fund’s overweight of these holdings compared with the index, enhanced the fund’s relative performance.
 
From a valuation standpoint, overall weightings compared with the index in both price-to-book and price-to-earnings groups were beneficial, although stock selection in these areas yielded disappointing results that more than erased these benefits. The fund’s stock choices among shares of companies with market capitalizations of $5 to $10 billion generally helped the fund, although stock choices in most other market-capitalization groups detracted.

Schwab Health Care Fund™
 
 
The Schwab Health Care Fund (the fund) seeks long-term capital growth. To pursue its goal, the fund primarily invests in equity securities issued by companies in the Health Care sector. The fund uses Schwab Equity Ratings to aid its U.S. stock selection and Schwab’s proprietary international stock research to aid its international stock selection. For more information concerning the fund’s investment objective, strategies, and risks, please see the fund’s prospectus.
 
The fund returned 20.10% for the 12 months ended October 31, 2012, outperforming the Dow Jones Global Health Care Index (the index), which the fund uses for performance comparisons. The index returned 19.81% for the report period.
 
Market Highlights. U.S. stocks rallied amid the low-rate environment and governmental efforts to quicken the pace of economic growth during the 12 months, while the euro zone’s sovereign debt crisis represented an ongoing challenge for international equities. Within U.S. markets, Health Care stocks were some of the better performers, generating double-digit returns. By comparison, overseas stocks endured particularly sharp losses in May amid concerns regarding Greek elections and worries that the crisis might spread. However, meaningful subsequent progress by European leaders helped international equities begin to recover. Biotechnology, Pharmaceuticals, and Health Care Equipment stocks—collectively representing nearly 80% of the index—each generated double-digit returns amid that environment. In addition, the low interest rate environment likely made corporate acquisitions more affordable. Looking to replace revenue streams from medications with expiring patent protections and expand product lines, big pharmaceutical companies actively examined potential acquisition targets within the Biotechnology industry in particular, propping up returns in the process.
 
Positioning and Strategies. The fund’s market-capitalization strategies, and stock selection within the various groups, contributed to the fund’s outperformance of the index. Stock selection of companies with market capitalizations of $10 billion and up performed particularly well, enhancing the fund’s relative performance.
 
The investment adviser limited the fund’s holdings of Health Care stocks from European countries, including those from Switzerland and the U.K. Instead, Health Care companies based in the U.S. were more heavily weighted than those in the index, an allocation that improved the fund’s relative performance, although the fund’s stock selections within the U.S. generated the opposite results.
 
From an industry standpoint, an overweight in Biotechnology stocks—which returned more than 35% for the fund, and benefitted from the low-rate environment—enhanced relative performance. Unfortunately, stock selections within this industry reduced the fund’s performance compared with the index. Pharmaceuticals stocks contributed meaningfully to the fund’s outperformance of the index, as did stock selection within this industry. For example, the fund’s holdings of Par Pharmaceutical Cos Inc.—a distributor and manufacturer of generic drugs that was acquired and taken private by TPG Capital during the period—performed particularly well, returning more than 63%. Within the Health Care Equipment industry, the fund’s stock selections and weighting reduced relative performance.
 
In addition, the fund’s overall strategies compared with the index in both price-to-book and price-to-earnings groups were beneficial for performance, with stock selections in both of these areas also enhancing the fund’s relative return.

Timing differences in foreign exchange calculations and fair valuation of the fund’s holdings contributed positively to the fund’s performance compared with the index.*
 
Market Highlights. International equities faced myriad headwinds during the 12 months. Stocks started out on rocky footing as the euro zone’s sovereign debt crisis and a correspondingly sharp increase in financial market volatility pushed investors toward perceived safe havens. As meaningful progress in Europe emerged, and central banks around the world continued trying to support economic growth, investors began migrating back into stocks, propping up the market’s performance. Meanwhile, major currencies finished mixed versus the U.S. dollar, correspondingly affecting returns in U.S. dollar terms.
 
Positioning and Strategies. Multiple strategies helped the fund outperform, but effective stock selection was one of the most important overall contributors. Of the 10 primary economic sectors within the index, the fund’s stock selection enhanced performance in eight sectors, with particularly beneficial results among the Information Technology and Consumer Discretionary sectors.
 
Stock selection within the $5 billion and under market-capitalization group generated solid returns, as did strategies concerning the fund’s country allocations and corresponding stock selections. Stock choices among U.K. holdings, particularly in small-cap shares, generated performance-enhancing results. A key contributor to this result within the Information Technology sector was Micro Focus International PLC, an enterprise application management solutions provider. The fund’s holdings of this company returned more than 69%.
 
In contrast, strategies in Australia detracted from the fund’s relative performance. Stock selection within Australia’s small-capitalization market was particularly disappointing, with the fund’s holdings of St. Barbara Limited—a gold exploration and production company—providing an illustration and falling sharply, returning approximately -22%. From a valuation standpoint, the fund’s overall strategies compared with the index in both price-to-book and price-to-earnings groups enhanced performance, while stock selections in both of these areas performed well.

Foreign securities can involve risks such as political and economic instability and currency risk.
 
* Typically, the securities in the index are valued using foreign exchange rates obtained at the close of the London foreign currency exchange (11:00 AM EST). Securities in the fund, however, are valued using foreign exchange rates obtained at the close of the New York foreign currency exchange (4:00 PM EST). This difference in closing times can result in different foreign currency exchange rates between the two exchanges, and thus different foreign currency exchange rates used in the valuation of the index’s and fund’s securities.

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, 2012 and held through October 31, 2012.
 
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.

Each fund in this report offers one share class. Shares are bought and sold (subject to a redemption fee, see financial note 10) at closing net asset value per share (“NAV”), which is the price for all outstanding shares of the funds. Each share has a par value of 1/1,000 of a cent, and the funds’ Board of Trustees (the “Board”) 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:
 
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the funds use in their preparation of financial statements. The accounting policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
 
(a) Security Valuation:
 
Under procedures approved by the Board, the investment adviser has formed a Pricing Committee to administer the pricing and valuation of portfolio securities and other assets and to ensure that prices used for internal purposes or provided by third parties reasonably reflect fair market value. Among other things, these procedures allow the funds to utilize independent pricing services, quotations from securities and financial instrument dealers and other market sources to determine fair value.
 
The funds value the securities in their portfolios every business day. The funds use the following policies to value various types of securities:
 
  •  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 at halfway between the most recent bid and ask quotes. Securities that are primarily traded on foreign exchanges are valued at the official closing price or the last sales price on the exchange where the securities are principally traded with these values then translated into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rate, unless these securities are fair valued as discussed below.
 
  •  Securities for which no quoted value is available: The Board has adopted procedures to fair value each fund’s securities when market prices are not “readily available” or are unreliable. For example, a fund may fair value a security when it is de-listed or its trading is halted or suspended; when a security’s primary pricing source is unable or unwilling to provide a price; or when a security’s primary trading market is closed during regular market hours. Each fund makes fair value

  determinations in good faith in accordance with the fund’s valuation procedures. The Pricing Committee considers a number of factors, including unobservable market inputs when arriving at fair value. The Pricing Committee may employ techniques such as the review of related or comparable assets or liabilities, related market activities, recent transactions, market multiples, book values, transactional back-testing, disposition analysis and other relevant information. The Pricing Committee regularly reviews these inputs and assumptions to calibrate the valuations. The Board convenes on a regular basis to review fair value determinations made by the funds pursuant to the procedures.
 
  •  International fair valuation: The Board has adopted procedures to fair value foreign equity securities that are traded in markets that close prior to the funds valuing 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 comparative 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 regularly reviews fair value determinations made by the funds pursuant to the procedures.
 
  •  Futures and forward foreign currency exchange contracts: valued at their settlement prices as of the close of their exchanges (for futures) or at a value based on that day’s forward 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.
 
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 measurements) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (Level 3 measurements). If the funds determine that either the volume and/or level of activity for an asset or liability has significantly decreased (from normal conditions for that asset or liability) or price quotations or observable inputs are not associated with orderly transactions, increased analysis and management judgment will be required to estimate fair value.
 
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
 
  •  Level 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 and futures contracts. Investments in underlying funds are valued at their NAV daily and are classified as Level 1 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 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 fair valuations due to significant movement in the U.S. markets occurring after the daily close of the foreign markets. The Board has approved a vendor that calculates fair valuations of international equity 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):
 
  •  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 levels associated with valuing the funds’ investments as of October 31, 2012 are disclosed in the Portfolio Holdings.
 
(b) Accounting Policies for certain Portfolio Investments (if held):
 
Futures Contracts: 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. A fund must give the broker a deposit of cash and/or securities (initial margin) whenever it enters into the futures contract. The amount of the deposit may vary from one contract to another. 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 until the contract is closed, at which time the gains or losses are realized. Futures are traded publicly on exchanges, and their market value changes daily.
 
Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts: “Forwards”, as they are known, are contracts to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The value of the forwards is accounted for as unrealized gains or losses until the contracts settle, at which time the gains or losses are realized.
 
Securities Lending: Under the trust’s Securities Lending Program, a fund (lender) may make short-term loans of its securities to another party (borrower) to generate additional revenue for the fund. The borrower pledges collateral in the form of cash, securities issued or fully guaranteed by the U.S. government or foreign governments, or letters of credit issued by a bank. Collateral at the individual loan level is required to have a value of at least 102% of the prior day’s market value of the loaned securities for securities traded on U.S. exchanges and a value of at least 105% for all other securities and is marked to market daily. The cash collateral of securities loaned is invested in money market portfolios operating under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act. Securities lending income, as disclosed in a fund’s Statement of Operations, if applicable, represents the income earned from the investment of the cash collateral plus any fees paid by borrowers, less the fees paid to the lending agent which are subject to adjustments pursuant to the securities lending agreement.
 
If applicable, the value of the securities on loan as of October 31, 2012 and the value of the related collateral are disclosed in the Portfolio Holdings and the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
 
Short Sales: When a fund sells securities short (sells securities it does not own), 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 short 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.
 
(c) Security Transactions:
 
Security transactions are recorded as of the date the order to buy or sell the security is executed. Realized gains or losses from security transactions are based on the identified costs of the securities involved.
 
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. Realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
 
trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and the difference between the recorded amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from changes in foreign exchange rates on foreign denominated assets and liabilities other than investments in securities held at the end of the reporting period. These realized and unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses are reported in foreign currency transactions or translations in the Statement of Operations. 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.
 
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. Dividends accrued on securities sold short are recorded as an expense on the fund’s records and presented in the Statement of Operations. The fund may also incur stock loan fees which represent the cost of borrowing securities used for short sale transactions.
 
Gains realized by the funds on the sale of securities in certain foreign countries are subject to non-U.S. taxes. In those instances, 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 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.
 
Income received from foreign sources may result in withholding tax. Withholding taxes are accrued at the same time as the related income if the tax rate is fixed and known, unless a tax withheld is reclaimable from the local tax authorities in which case it is recorded as receivable. If the tax rate is not known or estimable, such expense or reclaim receivable is recorded when the net proceeds are received.
 
(e) Expenses:
 
Expenses that are specific to a 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 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, 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 to GAAP. Notwithstanding this, shareholders should understand that in order to follow these principles, fund management has to make estimates and assumptions that affect the information reported in the financial statements. It’s possible that once the results are known, they may turn out to be different from these estimates and these differences may be material.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
 
(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) Foreign Taxes:
 
The funds may be subject to foreign taxes (a portion of which may be reclaimable) on income, corporate events, foreign currency exchanges and capital gains on investments. All foreign taxes are recorded in accordance with the applicable foreign tax regulations and rates that exist in foreign markets in which the funds invest. These foreign taxes, if any, are paid by the funds and are disclosed in the Statement of Operations. Foreign taxes payable as of October 31, 2012, if any, are reflected in the funds’ Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
 
(k) 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.
 
(l) New Accounting Pronouncements:
 
In December 2011, Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-11, “Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities,” was issued and is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after January 1, 2013. The ASU enhances disclosure requirements with respect to an entity’s rights of offset and related arrangements associated with its financial and derivative instruments. Management is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2011-11 may have on the funds’ financial statement disclosures.
 
3. Risk Factors:
 
Investing in the funds may involve certain risks, as discussed in the funds’ prospectus, including, but not limited to, those described below. Any of these risks could cause an investor to lose money.
 
Stock markets rise and fall daily. As with any investment whose performance is tied to these markets, the value of the investment in a fund will fluctuate, which means that investors 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. In addition, equity markets tend to move in cycles, which may cause stock prices to fall over short or extended periods of time.
 
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, the portfolio optimization process used by each fund to assist in constructing the fund’s portfolio does not assure successful investment. Securities selected with the assistance of the process may be negatively impacted by factors or events not foreseen in developing the process. As a result, a fund may have a lower return than if it were managed using another process or strategy.
 
Historically, small-cap stocks have been riskier than large- and mid-cap stocks, and their prices may move sharply, especially during market upturns and downturns. Small-cap companies 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 and mid-cap stocks, for instance — a fund’s small-cap holdings could reduce performance.
 
Both large- and mid-cap stocks tend to go in and out of favor based on market and economic conditions. However, stocks of mid-cap companies tend to be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic events than larger, more established companies. During a period when large- and mid-cap U.S. stocks fall behind other types of investments — small-cap stocks, for instance — a fund’s large- and mid-cap holdings could reduce performance.

3. Risk Factors (continued):
 
Growth stocks can be volatile. Growth companies usually invest a high portion of earnings in their businesses and may lack the dividends of value stocks that can cushion stock prices in a falling market. The prices of growth stocks are based largely on projections of the issuer’s future earnings and revenues. If a company’s earnings or revenues fall short of expectations, its stock price may fall dramatically. Growth stocks may also be more expensive relative to their earnings or assets compared to value or other stocks.
 
To the extent that a fund invests in dividend paying stocks, the fund’s performance will correlate directly with the performance of the dividend paying stock segment of the stock market, and the fund may underperform funds that do not limit their investments to dividend paying stocks. If stocks held by a fund reduce or stop paying dividends, the fund’s ability to generate income may be affected.
 
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. Certain of these risks, such as liquidity risk and market risk, are discussed elsewhere in this section. A fund’s use of derivatives is also subject to credit risk, leverage risk, lack of availability risk, valuation risk, correlation risk and tax risk. Lack of availability risk is the risk that suitable derivative transactions may not be available in all circumstances for risk management or other purposes. Credit risk is the risk that the counterparty to a derivatives transaction may not fulfill its obligations. Leverage risk is the risk that a small percentage of assets invested in derivatives can have a disproportionately larger impact on a fund. Valuation risk is the risk that a particular derivative may be valued incorrectly. Correlation risk is the risk that changes in the value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index. Tax risk is the risk that the use of derivatives may cause the fund to realize higher amounts of short-term capital gain. These risks could cause a fund to lose more than the principal amount invested.
 
A particular investment may be difficult to purchase or sell. A fund may be unable to sell illiquid securities at an advantageous time or price.
 
Convertible securities generally are debt obligations that pay income, but which may convert into common or preferred stock under certain circumstances. These investments, which are often issued by smaller or less established companies, are subject to the equity risks described above, but they also are subject to fixed income risks. For example, an issuer may fail to pay interest or dividends, and prices of convertible securities generally will fall when interest rates rise.
 
When a fund invests in an exchange-traded fund (“ETF”), it will bear a proportionate share of the ETF’s expenses. In addition, lack of liquidity in an ETF can result in its value being more volatile than the underlying portfolio of securities.
 
A fund’s investments in real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) will be subject to the risks associated with the direct ownership of real estate, including fluctuations in the value of underlying properties, defaults by borrowers or tenants, changes in interest rates and risks related to general or local economic conditions. REITs are also subject to certain additional risks; for example, REITs are dependent upon specialized management skills and cash flows, and may have their investments in relatively few properties, a small geographic area or a single property type. Failure of a company to qualify as a REIT under federal tax law may have adverse consequences on a fund. In addition, REITs have their own expenses, and a fund will bear a proportionate share of those expenses.
 
Certain funds engage in short sales transactions. Short sales are 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 a fund, and the fund will incur a loss if the price of the security sold short increases between the time of the short sales and the time the fund replaces the borrowed security.
 
To the extent a fund establishes both long and short positions in equity securities the 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 prices of the borrowed securities rise and it costs more to replace the borrowed securities. In contrast to a fund’s long positions, the potential loss on the fund’s short positions is unlimited. In addition, 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.
 
A fund’s investments in securities of foreign issuers may involve certain risks that are greater than those associated with investments in securities of U.S. issuers. These include risks of adverse changes in foreign economic, political, regulatory and other conditions; changes in currency exchange rates or exchange control regulations (including limitations on currency movements and exchanges); differing accounting, auditing, financial reporting and legal standards and practices; differing

3. Risk Factors (continued):
 
securities market structures; and higher transaction costs. These risks may be heightened in connection with investments in emerging markets.
 
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. 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.
 
To the extent a fund’s investments in a single country or a limited number of countries represent a higher percentage of the fund’s assets, the fund assumes the risk that economic, political and social conditions in those countries will have a significant impact on its investment performance and it may be subject to increased price volatility.
 
The investments of certain funds are concentrated in issuers doing business in the same sector, and therefore, the companies in which a fund invests will be affected by many of the same factors, such as legislative or regulatory changes, intense competition for market share, and other competitive challenges. In addition, a fund is subject to the risks that stocks of these companies may underperform other segments of the equity market or stock market as a whole and are likely to have above-average volatility.
 
Securities lending involves the risk of loss of rights in the collateral or delay in recovery of the collateral if the borrower fails to return the security loaned or becomes insolvent.
 
Please refer to the funds’ prospectus for a more complete description of the principal risks of investing in the funds.
 
4. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions:
 
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 CSIM and the trust.
 
For its advisory and administrative services to the following funds, CSIM is entitled to receive an annual fee, payable monthly, based on a percentage of each fund’s average daily net assets as follows:

The Board has adopted a Shareholder Servicing Plan (the “Plan”) on behalf of the funds. The Plan enables each fund to bear expenses relating to the provision by service providers, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (a broker-dealer affiliate of CSIM, “Schwab”), of certain account maintenance, customer liaison and shareholder services to the current shareholders of the funds. Schwab serves as the funds’ paying agent under the Plan for making payments of the shareholder service fee due to the service providers (other than Schwab) under the Plan. All shareholder service fees paid by the funds to Schwab in its capacity as the funds’ paying agent will be passed through to the service providers, and Schwab will not retain any portion of such fees.
 
Pursuant to the Plan, each fund’s shares are subject to an annual shareholder servicing fee up to 0.25%. The shareholder servicing fee paid to a particular service provider is made pursuant to its written agreement with Schwab (or, in the case of payments made to Schwab, pursuant to Schwab’s written agreement with the funds), and the funds will pay no more than 0.25% of the average annual daily net asset value of the fund shares owned by shareholders holding shares through such service

providers. Payments under the Plan are made as described above regardless of Schwab’s or the service provider’s actual cost of providing the services. If the cost of providing the services under the Plan is less than the payment received, the unexpended portion of the fees may be retained as profit by Schwab or the service provider.
 
Although these agreements specify certain fees for these services, CSIM and its affiliates have made an additional agreement (“expense limitation”) with the funds, for so long as CSIM serves as the investment adviser to the funds, which may only be amended or terminated with the approval of the Board, to limit the total annual fund operating expenses, excluding interest, taxes and certain non-routine expenses. The expense limitation as a percentage of average daily net assets is as follows:

The funds may engage in 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/or officers. For the period ended October 31, 2012, the funds had no direct 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 with 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 by the Board. The funds had no interfund borrowing or lending activity during the period.
 
During the period, the 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 received a payment of $32,770, $13,172, $6,516, $2,710, $4,976, $1,664, $9,270 and $11, respectively, related to state filing fees resulting from revised fee calculation methodologies being applied on sales of the funds’

shares in prior periods in certain states. These payments are presented in each fund’s Statement of Operations as “State filing fee reimbursement”.
 
All or a portion of the state filing fees were previously borne by CSIM through a waiver of CSIM’s management fee. As this expense was previously waived, the payments received during the period had the effect of decreasing the total “Expense reduction by CSIM and its affiliates” in each fund’s Statement of Operations. The current net operating expense ratio was not impacted by this payment.
 
5. Transfer Agent Services:
 
Boston Financial Data Services, Inc. provides transfer agent services for each fund.
 
6. Board of Trustees:
 
Trustees may include people who are officers and/or directors of the investment adviser or its affiliates. Federal securities law limits the percentage of such “interested persons” who may serve on a trust’s board, and the trust was in compliance with these limitations throughout the report period. The trust did not pay any of these interested persons for their services as trustees, but it did pay non-interested persons (independent trustees), as noted in each fund’s Statement of Operations.
 
7. Borrowing from Banks:
 
The funds have access to custodian overdraft facilities, a committed line of credit of $150 million with State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”), 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 & Co. 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 for the committed line of credit.
 
There were no borrowings from the lines of credit by the funds during the period. However, the funds may have utilized their overdraft facility and incurred interest expense, which is disclosed in the Statement of Operations, if any. The interest expense is determined based on a negotiated rate above the current Federal Funds Rate.
 
8. Purchases and Sales/Maturities of Investment Securities:
 
For the period ended October 31, 2012, purchases and sales/maturities of securities (excluding short-term obligations) were as follows:

9. Derivatives:
 
Certain funds entered into equity index futures contracts (“futures”) during the report period. The funds invested in futures to equitize available cash. The fair value and due to brokers for futures contracts held at October 31, 2012 and the net realized/unrealized gains (losses) on futures contracts held during the period ended October 31, 2012 are presented on the face of the Portfolio Holdings, Statement of Assets and Liabilities and Statement of Operations, respectively.

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.
 
Permanent book and tax basis differences may result in reclassifications between components of net assets as required. The adjustments will have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. As of October 31, 2012, the funds made the following reclassifications:

11. Federal Income Taxes (continued):
 
As of October 31, 2012, 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, 2012, the funds did not incur any interest or penalties.
 
On December 22, 2010, the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (“the Act”) was signed by the President. The Act is the first major piece of legislation affecting Regulated Investment Companies (“RICs”) since 1986 and it modernizes several of the federal income and excise tax provisions related to RICs.
 
Certain of the enacted provisions include:
 
Post-enactment capital losses may now be carried forward indefinitely, but must retain the character of the original loss. However, such losses must be utilized prior to the pre-enactment capital losses, which increases the likelihood that the pre-enactment capital losses will expire unused. Under pre-enactment law, capital losses could be carried forward for eight years, and carried forward as short-term capital loss, irrespective of the character of the original loss. The Act contains simplification provisions, which are aimed at preventing disqualification of a RIC for “inadvertent” failures of the asset diversification and/or qualifying income tests. Additionally, the Act exempts RICs from the preferential dividend rule, and repeals the 60-day designation requirement for certain types of pay-through income and gains.
 
Finally, the Act contains several provisions aimed at preserving the character of distributions made by a fiscal year RIC during the portion of its taxable year ending after October 31 or December 31, reducing the circumstances under which a RIC might be required to file amended Forms 1099 to restate previously reported distributions.
 
The funds have adopted the noted provisions of the Act for the period ending October 31, 2012.
 
12. Subsequent Events:
 
Management has determined there are no subsequent events or transactions through the date the financial statements were issued that would have materially impacted the financial statements as presented.
 
13. Reorganization:
 
Under a plan of reorganization adopted by the Trust, all of the assets and liabilities of the Schwab Premier Equity 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 September 7, 2012. 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.

13. Reorganization (continued):
 
Assuming the acquisition had been completed on November 1, 2011, the beginning of the fiscal year of Schwab Core Equity Fund, Schwab Core Equity Fund’s pro forma results of operations for the period ended October 31, 2012, would have been as follows:
 
         
Net investment income
    $25,344,441  
Net realized gains on investments and futures
    $168,111,902  
Net unrealized gains on investments and futures
    $53,072,153  
Net increase in net assets resulting from operations
    $246,528,496  
 
Because the combined investment portfolios have been managed as a single integrated portfolio since the acquisition was completed, it is not practicable to separate the amounts of revenue and earnings of Schwab Premier Equity Fund that have been included in Schwab Core Equity Fund’s Statement of Operation since September 7, 2012.

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 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 (eight of the portfolios constituting Schwab Capital Trust, hereafter referred to as the “Funds”) at October 31, 2012, and the results of their operations for the year then ended, changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years or periods 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, 2012 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

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 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. As part of the renewal process, Independent Trustees’ legal counsel sends an information request letter to CSIM seeking certain relevant information. The responses by CSIM are provided to the Trustees for their review prior to their meeting, and the Trustees are provided with the opportunity to request any additional materials. 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 24, 2012, and June 5, 2012, and approved the renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds for an additional one year term at the meeting held on June 5, 2012. 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, 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 category of other mutual funds and appropriate indices/benchmarks, in light of total return, and market trends. As part of this review, the Trustees considered the composition of the peer category, selection criteria and the reputation of the third party who prepared the 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. Each of Schwab Core Equity Fund, Schwab Dividend Equity Fund, Schwab Large-Cap Growth Fund, Schwab Hedged Equity Fund and Schwab Health Care Fund had performance that lagged that of a relevant peer group for certain (although not necessarily all) periods considered. Notwithstanding the forgoing, the Board concluded that other factors relevant to performance supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to Schwab Core Equity Fund, Schwab Dividend Equity Fund, Schwab Large-Cap Growth Fund, Schwab Hedged Equity Fund and Schwab Health Care Fund. These factors varied from Fund to Fund, but included one or more of the following: (1) that the underperformance was attributable, to a significant extent, to investment decisions by CSIM that were reasonable and consistent with the Fund’s investment objective and policies; (2) that recent performance showed improvement; and (3) that CSIM had taken steps designed to help improve performance. 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 a peer group of 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 CSIM’s contractual commitment to keep each Fund’s 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. 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 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 that, in each case, 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.
 
Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index A broad-based benchmark that measures the investment grade, U.S. dollar-denominated, fixed-rate taxable bond market, including Treasuries, government-related and corporate securities, mortgage-back securities (agency fixed-rate and hybrid ARM passthroughs), asset-backed securities, and commercial mortgage-backed securities.
 
beta A historical measure of an investment’s volatility relative to a market index (usually the S&P 500®). 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.
 
gross domestic product (GDP) The output of goods and services produced by labor and property located in the United States.
 
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.
 
MSCI EAFE Index A free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed markets, excluding the U.S. & Canada.
 
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.
 
Russell 2000 Index An index that measures the performance of the small-cap segment of the U.S. equity universe.
 
S&P 500 Index A market capitalization index that is designed to measure the performance of 500 leading publicly held companies in leading industries of the U.S. economy.
 
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
 

CHANDOHA PHOTO
 
Marie Chandoha is President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. and the funds covered in this report.

 
Dear Shareholder,
 
As President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc., (CSIM) I’d like to thank you for trusting us to help you meet your investment objectives, and for reading this important report concerning the Schwab Fundamental Index Funds. Fundamental Index strategies have enjoyed significant asset growth in recent years, as investors have embraced the value of alternatives to traditional index funds. While most equity indices are generally weighted by market capitalization, fundamental indices select and weight stocks by non-price factors such as dividends, cash flow and sales. By utilizing this methodology, the Schwab Fundamental Index Funds seek to offset certain risks of traditional cap-weighted index products, while offering the potential for higher returns.
 
For the 12 months ended October 31, 2012, the Schwab Fundamental Index Funds generated a range of positive returns amid challenging conditions overseas and a comparatively favorable environment in the U.S. For overseas equities, the euro zone’s sovereign debt crisis represented an ongoing challenge, as did decelerating economic growth. Stocks in developed international markets endured particularly sharp losses in May amid concerns regarding Greek elections and worries that the crisis might spread. Subsequently, meaningful progress by European leaders helped overseas equities turnaround, while major currencies finished mixed versus the U.S. dollar. Emerging market economies generally faced decelerating economic growth that tempered the returns of stocks in such markets, resulting in limited gains during the period.

From the President continued
 

For the 12 months ended October 31, 2012, the Schwab Fundamental Index Funds generated a range of positive returns amid challenging conditions overseas and a comparatively favorable environment in the U.S.

Softening corporate earnings forecasts also somewhat weighed on international stocks, as did the depreciation of most “BRIC” currencies versus the U.S. dollar.
 
U.S. stocks were supported by the government’s ongoing efforts to speed up economic growth. The Federal Reserve announced new policies aimed at quickening the pace of economic expansion, and extended its forecast for keeping short-term interest rates at 0-0.25% from late 2014 to mid-2015. Large-cap stocks outperformed small-cap stocks, with both generating solid returns in spite of signs of slowing corporate profit growth.
 
The underperformance of overseas equities versus U.S. stocks is readily apparent when looking at several widely used performance gauges. In U.S. dollar terms, the MSCI EAFE Index returned 5.2%, the MSCI Emerging Markets Index returned 3.0%, and the S&P 500 Index returned 15.2%.
 
Thank you for investing in the Schwab Fundamental Index Funds. As announced in August, CSIM converted the indices for these products to the Russell Fundamental Index Series on October 19, 2012. In connection with this transition, CSIM agreed to temporarily waive each fund’s operating expense ratio for a certain period of time. We encourage you to review your investment portfolio regularly to ensure that it meets your current financial plan. For answers to frequently asked questions or for more information about the Schwab Fundamental Index Funds, please visit www.schwabfunds.com. We are also happy to hear from you at 1-800-435-4000.
 
Sincerely,
 
-s- Marie Chandoha

Schwab Fundamental US Large Company* Index Fund
 
 
The Schwab Fundamental US Large Company Index Fund (the fund) seeks investment results that correspond generally (before fees and expenses) to the total return of the Russell Fundamental U.S. Large Company Index (the index), which measures the performance of the large company size segment by fundamental overall company scores. To pursue its investment objective, the fund uses a replication investment approach and generally gives the same weight to a given stock as does the index. For more information concerning the fund’s investment objective, strategies, and risks, please see the fund’s prospectus.
 
The fund returned 15.29% for the 12-month period ended October 31, 2012. On October 19, 2012, the fund transitioned from tracking the FTSE RAFI US 1000 Index, which returned 15.64% for the 12-month period, to the new index, which returned 16.19%. The Fundamental U.S. Large Company Spliced Index returned 15.70% for the same period. Because the return of an index does not include operational and transaction costs, the return of a fund tends to differ from that of its respective index.
 
Market Highlights. Large-cap U.S. stocks generated double-digit overall returns. The low-rate environment and governmental efforts aimed at increasing the pace of economic growth helped to support this performance. Challenges included the euro zone’s ongoing sovereign debt crisis, worries over the November elections, and the upcoming fiscal cliff—the potential expiration of many tax cuts and governmental spending policies in 2013.
 
Contributors and Detractors. The Financials sector was the biggest contributor to the fund’s total return. The large average weight of this sector reflected part of the reason for this contribution, with Financials stocks comprising nearly 20% of the fund. Financials stocks also performed well, returning almost 21%. One significant contributor in this sector was Bank of America Corporation, a diversified financial services company that provides banking, investing, asset management, and other services. The fund’s Bank of America Corporation holdings returned more than 37% for the 12 months.
 
The Consumer Discretionary sector, which represented an average weight of nearly 11% of the fund, also provided a meaningful total return contribution. The fund’s Consumer Discretionary stocks returned approximately 22%, reflecting the overall performance of companies that manufacture cars, create household goods, provide consumer services, or are involved in media or retailing activities. One significant contributor in this sector was Home Depot, Inc., a home improvement retailer. The fund’s Home Depot, Inc. holdings returned nearly 76% over the report period.
 
The Information Technology sector was the weakest contributor to the fund’s total return. The Information Technology sector represented an average weight of nearly 11% of the fund, and generated a return of approximately 2%. One significant detractor in this sector was Hewlett-Packard Company, an imaging and printing systems, computing systems, and information technology services provider. The fund’s holdings of Hewlett-Packard Company returned approximately -47%.

Schwab Fundamental US Small Company* Index Fund
 
 
The Schwab Fundamental US Small Company Index Fund (the fund, formerly the Schwab Fundamental US Small-Mid Company Index Fund) seeks investment results that correspond generally (before fees and expenses) to the total return of the Russell Fundamental U.S. Small Company Index (the index), which measures the performance of the small company size segment by fundamental overall company scores. To pursue its investment objective, the fund uses a replication investment approach and generally gives the same weight to a given stock as does the index. For more information concerning the fund’s investment objective, strategies, and risks, please see the fund’s prospectus.
 
The fund returned 11.37% for the 12-month period ended October 31, 2012. On October 19, 2012, the fund transitioned from tracking the FTSE RAFI US Mid Small 1500 Index, which returned 12.36% for the 12-month period, to the new index, which returned 12.54%. The Fundamental U.S. Small Company Spliced Index returned 11.47% for the same period. Because the return of an index does not include operational and transaction costs, the return of a fund tends to differ from that of its respective index.
 
Market Highlights. Small-cap U.S. stocks generated double-digit returns for the 12-months. The low-rate environment and governmental efforts aimed at increasing the pace of economic growth helped to support this performance. Challenges included the euro zone’s ongoing sovereign debt crisis, worries over the November elections, and the upcoming fiscal cliff—the potential expiration of many tax cuts and governmental spending policies in 2013.
 
Contributors and Detractors. The Financials sector was the biggest contributor to the fund’s return. The large average weight of this sector reflected part of the reason for this contribution, with Financials stocks representing more than 21% of the fund.

The fund’s Ocwen Financial Corporation holdings returned approximately 146% over the 12 months.
 
The Consumer Discretionary sector, which represented an average weight of nearly 18% of the fund, also provided a meaningful total return contribution.

The fund’s holdings of The Ryland Group, Inc. returned more than 152% over the report period.
 
The Energy sector detracted the most from the fund’s total return.

One significant detractor in this sector was Patriot Coal Corporation, a coal mining company. The fund’s Patriot Coal Corp. holdings returned approximately -95%.

Schwab Fundamental International* Large Company Index Fund
 
 
The Schwab Fundamental International Large Company Index Fund (the fund) seeks investment results that correspond generally (before fees and expenses) to the total return of the Russell Fundamental Developed ex-U.S. Large Company Index (Net) (the index), which measures the performance of the large company size segment by fundamental overall company scores. To pursue its investment objective, the fund uses a replication investment approach and generally gives the same weight to a given stock as does the index. For more information concerning the fund’s investment objective, strategies, and risks, please see the fund’s prospectus.
 
The fund returned 2.24% in U.S. dollar terms for the 12-month period ended October 31, 2012. On October 19, 2012, the fund transitioned from tracking the FTSE RAFI Developed ex US 1000 Index, which returned 1.64% for the 12-month period, to the new index, which returned 1.04%. The Fundamental Developed ex-U.S. Large Company Spliced Index returned 1.35% for the same period. Because the return of an index does not include operational and transaction costs, the return of a fund tends to differ from that of its respective index. In addition, timing differences in foreign exchange calculations and fair valuation of the fund’s holdings contributed positively to the fund’s relative performance.**
 
Market Highlights. The euro zone’s sovereign debt crisis and decelerating economic growth represented challenges for large-cap international stocks. However, meaningful eventual progress by European leaders toward resolving the crisis helped international stocks, while major currencies finished mixed versus the U.S. dollar.
 
Contributors and Detractors. U.K. stocks were the biggest contributors to the fund’s total return from a country perspective, and represented an average weight of more than 20%. U.K. investments benefitted from being alternatives to the crisis-plagued euro zone, and returned almost 10% for the fund in U.S. dollar terms. HSBC Holdings plc—an international banking and financial services company—was a significant contributor in this market, with the fund’s holdings returning more than 18%.
 
The fund’s Japanese stocks returned approximately -7% in U.S. dollar terms, the biggest detractors from a country standpoint. Japanese stocks represented an average weight of more than 17% of the fund, and were negatively affected by slowing private consumption in Japan, as well as the country’s dwindling economic growth. Sony Corporation—a consumer electrics manufacturer—was a significant detractor in this market’s performance, with the fund’s holdings returning approximately -44%.

**Typically, the securities in the index are valued using foreign exchange rates obtained at the close of the London foreign currency exchange (11:00 AM EST). Securities in the fund, however, are valued using foreign exchange rates obtained at the close of the New York foreign currency exchange (4:00 PM EST). This difference in closing times can result in different foreign currency exchange rates between the two exchanges, and thus different foreign currency exchange rates used in the valuation of the index’s and fund’s securities.

Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets* Large Company Index Fund
 
 
The Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets Large Company Index Fund (the fund, formerly the Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets Index Fund) seeks investment results that correspond generally (before fees and expenses) to the total return of the Russell Fundamental Emerging Markets Large Company Index (Net) (the index), which measures the performance of the large company size segment by fundamental overall company scores. To pursue its investment objective, the fund uses a replication investment approach (where possible), seeking a tight allocation across countries, regions, sectors, market capitalizations, and valuation measures compared with the index. For more information concerning the fund’s investment objective, strategies, and risks, please see the fund’s prospectus.
 
The fund returned 1.18% in U.S. dollar terms for the 12 months ended October 31, 2012. On October 19, 2012, the fund transitioned from tracking the FTSE RAFI Emerging Index, which returned 1.84% the 12-month period, to the new index, which returned 3.67%. The Fundamental Emerging Markets Large Company Spliced Index returned 1.95% for the same period. Because the return of an index does not include operational and transaction costs, the return of a fund tends to differ from that of its respective index. In addition, timing differences in foreign exchange calculations and fair valuation of the fund’s holdings contributed positively to the fund’s relative performance.**
 
Market Highlights. Emerging market stocks generated narrowly positive returns overall in U.S. dollar terms, as global economic growth remained soft and the euro zone’s sovereign debt crisis continued. Emerging market currencies finished mixed but generally lower versus the U.S. dollar, weighing on emerging market stock returns for U.S. investors.
 
Contributors and Detractors. Mexican stocks were the biggest contributors to the fund’s total return from a country perspective, and represented an average weight of almost 4%. Mexican investments benefitted amid rising export activity, particularly to the U.S., and returned almost 28% for the fund in U.S. dollar terms. Cemex SAB de CV—a building products company—was a significant contributor in this market, with the fund’s holdings returning more than 84%.
 
The fund’s Brazilian stocks returned approximately -15% in U.S. dollar terms, the biggest detractors from a country standpoint. Brazilian stocks represented an average weight of approximately 18% of the fund, and were negatively affected by the greater than 15% depreciation of the Brazilian real versus the U.S. dollar, which reduced returns for investors in U.S. dollar terms. Petroleo Brasileiro S.A.—an oil and natural gas explorer and producer—shares were significant detractors in this market, with the fund’s holdings returning approximately -16% to -20%.

**Typically, the securities in the index are valued using foreign exchange rates obtained at the close of the London foreign currency exchange (11:00 AM EST). Securities in the fund, however, are valued using foreign exchange rates obtained at the close of the New York foreign currency exchange (4:00 PM EST). This difference in closing times can result in different foreign currency exchange rates between the two exchanges, and thus different foreign currency exchange rates used in the valuation of the index’s and fund’s securities.

1 Fund expenses may have been partially absorbed by CSIM and its affiliates. 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.

3 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 past performance and financial history of the fund are that of the fund’s former Institutional Shares.
4 Effective October 19, 2012, the fund’s benchmark was changed from the FTSE RAFI Emerging Index to the Russell Fundamental Emerging Markets Large Company Index (Net). See Glossary for index definitions.

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, 2012 and held through October 31, 2012.
 
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 Effective October 19, 2009, the Investor Share class, the Select Share class and the Institutional Share class were combined into a single class of shares of the fund. The financial history as shown in the financial highlights is that of the former Institutional Shares.
2 The per share amount does not accord with the change in aggregate gains and losses in securities during the period because of the timing of fund transactions in relation to fluctuating market values.
3 The ratio of net operating expenses would have been 0.35%, if voluntary waiver by CSIM had not been included. See financial note 12.
4 Portfolio turnover would have been 37%, if rebalancing trades had not been included due to a change in the fund’s index. See financial note 12.

The fund’s policy is to recognize transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 as of the beginning of the fiscal year. There were security transfers in the amount of $433,730 and $943,456 from Level 1 to Level 2 and from Level 2 to Level 1, respectively, for the period ended October 31, 2012. The transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 were primarily due to the use of international fair valuation by the fund. There were no transfers in or out of Level 3 securities during the period.

All net realized and change in unrealized gains (losses) in the table above are reflected on the accompanying Statement of Operations. The change in net unrealized gains (losses) for Level 3 investments held by the fund at October 31, 2012 was ($103,053).
 
The fund’s policy is to recognize transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 as of the beginning of the fiscal year. There were security transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 for the period ended October 31, 2012. The transfers in the amount of $70,042 and $2,731,036 from Level 1 to Level 2 and from Level 2 to Level 1, respectively, were primarily due to the use of international fair valuation by the fund. The transfers in and out of Level 3 from Level 1 or Level 2 were the result of fair valued securities for which no quoted value was available.

Please refer to note 12 for more details.
 
Each fund in this report offers one share class. Shares are bought and sold (subject to a redemption fee, see financial note 10) at closing net asset value per share (“NAV”), which is the price for all outstanding shares of the funds. Each share has a par value of 1/1,000 of a cent, and the funds’ Board of Trustees (the “Board”) 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:
 
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the funds use in their preparation of financial statements. The accounting policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
 
(a) Security Valuation:
 
Under procedures approved by the Board, the investment adviser has formed a Pricing Committee to administer the pricing and valuation of portfolio securities and other assets and to ensure that prices used for internal purposes or provided by third parties reasonably reflect fair market value. Among other things, these procedures allow the funds to utilize independent pricing services, quotations from securities and financial instrument dealers and other market sources to determine fair value.
 
The funds value the securities in their portfolios every business day. The funds use the following policies to value various types of securities:
 
  •  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 at halfway between the most recent bid and ask quotes. Securities that are primarily traded on foreign exchanges are valued at the official closing price or the last sales price on the exchange where the securities are principally traded with these values then translated into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rate, unless these securities are fair valued as discussed below.

Financial Notes (continued)
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
 
  •  Securities for which no quoted value is available: The Board has adopted procedures to fair value each fund’s securities when market prices are not “readily available” or are unreliable. For example, a fund may fair value a security when it is de-listed or its trading is halted or suspended; when a security’s primary pricing source is unable or unwilling to provide a price; or when a security’s primary trading market is closed during regular market hours. Each fund makes fair value determinations in good faith in accordance with the fund’s valuation procedures. The Pricing Committee considers a number of factors, including unobservable market inputs when arriving at fair value. The Pricing Committee may employ techniques such as the review of related or comparable assets or liabilities, related market activities, recent transactions, market multiples, book values, transactional back-testing, disposition analysis and other relevant information. The Pricing Committee regularly reviews these inputs and assumptions to calibrate the valuations. The Board convenes on a regular basis to review fair value determinations made by the funds pursuant to the procedures.
 
  •  International fair valuation: The Board has adopted procedures to fair value foreign equity securities that are traded in markets that close prior to the funds valuing 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 comparative 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 regularly reviews fair value determinations made by the funds pursuant to the procedures.
 
  •  Futures and forward foreign currency exchange contracts: valued at their settlement prices as of the close of their exchanges (for futures) or at a value based on that day’s forward 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.
 
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 measurements) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (Level 3 measurements). If the funds determine that either the volume and/or level of activity for an asset or liability has significantly decreased (from normal conditions for that asset or liability) or price quotations or observable inputs are not associated with orderly transactions, increased analysis and management judgment will be required to estimate fair value.
 
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
 
  •  Level 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 and futures contracts. Investments in underlying funds are valued at their NAV daily and are classified as Level 1 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 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 fair valuations due to significant movement in the U.S. markets occurring after the daily close of the foreign markets. The Board has approved a vendor that calculates fair valuations of international equity 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

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
 
  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 levels associated with valuing the funds’ investments as of October 31, 2012 are disclosed in the Portfolio Holdings.
 
(b) Accounting Policies for certain Portfolio Investments (if held):
 
Futures Contracts: 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. A fund must give the broker a deposit of cash and/or securities (initial margin) whenever it enters into the futures contract. The amount of the deposit may vary from one contract to another. 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 until the contract is closed, at which time the gains or losses are realized. Futures are traded publicly on exchanges, and their market value changes daily.
 
Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts: “Forwards”, as they are known, are contracts to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The value of the forwards is accounted for as unrealized gains or losses until the contracts settle, at which time the gains or losses are realized.
 
Securities Lending: Under the trust’s Securities Lending Program, a fund (lender) may make short-term loans of its securities to another party (borrower) to generate additional revenue for the fund. The borrower pledges collateral in the form of cash, securities issued or fully guaranteed by the U.S. government or foreign governments, or letters of credit issued by a bank. Collateral at the individual loan level is required to have a value of at least 102% of the prior day’s market value of the loaned securities for securities traded on U.S. exchanges and a value of at least 105% for all other securities and is marked to market daily. The cash collateral of securities loaned is invested in money market portfolios operating under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act. Securities lending income, as disclosed in a fund’s Statement of Operations, if applicable, represents the income earned from the investment of the cash collateral plus any fees paid by borrowers, less the fees paid to the lending agent which are subject to adjustments pursuant to the securities lending agreement.
 
If applicable, the value of the securities on loan as of October 31, 2012 and the value of the related collateral are disclosed in the complete Portfolio Holdings and the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
 
(c) Security Transactions:
 
Security transactions are recorded as of the date the order to buy or sell the security is executed. Realized gains or losses from security transactions are based on the identified costs of the securities involved.
 
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. Realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and the difference between the recorded amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from changes in foreign exchange rates on foreign denominated assets and liabilities other than

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
 
investments in securities held at the end of the reporting period. These realized and unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses are reported in foreign currency transactions or translations in the Statement of Operations. 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 are subject to non-U.S. taxes. In those instances, 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 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.
 
Income received from foreign sources may result in withholding tax. Withholding taxes are accrued at the same time as the related income if the tax rate is fixed and known, unless a tax withheld is reclaimable from the local tax authorities in which case it is recorded as receivable. If the tax rate is not known or estimable, such expense or reclaim receivable is recorded when the net proceeds are received.
 
(e) Expenses:
 
Expenses that are specific to a 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 funds make distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, once a year.
 
(g) Custody Credit:
 
Certain funds have an arrangement with their custodian bank, 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 to GAAP. Notwithstanding this, shareholders should understand that in order to follow these principles, fund management has to make estimates and assumptions that affect the information reported in the financial statements. It’s possible that once the results are known, they may turn out to be different from these estimates and these differences may be material.
 
(i) Federal Income Taxes:
 
The funds intend to meet federal income and excise tax requirements for regulated investment companies. 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) Foreign Taxes:
 
The funds may be subject to foreign taxes (a portion of which may be reclaimable) on income, corporate events, foreign currency exchanges and capital gains on investments. All foreign taxes are recorded in accordance with the applicable foreign tax regulations and rates that exist in foreign markets in which the funds invest. These foreign taxes, if any, are paid by the funds

and are disclosed in the Statement of Operations. Foreign taxes payable as of October 31, 2012, if any, are reflected in the funds’ Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
 
(k) 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.
 
(l) New Accounting Pronouncements:
 
In December 2011, Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-11, “Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities,” was issued and is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after January 1, 2013. The ASU enhances disclosure requirements with respect to an entity’s rights of offset and related arrangements associated with its financial and derivative instruments. Management is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2011-11 may have on the funds’ financial statement disclosures.
 
3. Risk Factors:
 
Investing in the funds may involve certain risks, as discussed in the funds’ prospectus, including, but not limited to, those described below. Any of these risks could cause an investor to lose money.
 
Stock markets rise and fall daily. As with any investment whose performance is tied to these markets, the value of the investment in a fund will fluctuate, which means that the investors 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. In addition, equity markets tend to move in cycles, which may cause stock prices to fall over short or extended periods of time.
 
As an index fund, each 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 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 certain securities in the benchmark index, or match the securities’ weightings to the benchmark index, 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.
 
Each fund invests in companies measured by its respective index. It follows these stocks during upturns as well as downturns. Because of its indexing strategy, a fund does not take steps to reduce market exposure or to lessen the effects of a declining market. In addition, because of a fund’s expenses, the fund’s performance may be below that of the index.
 
If a fund uses a sampling method, the fund will not fully replicate the 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. If a 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.
 
To the extent that a fund’s or the index’s portfolio is concentrated in the securities of issuers in a particular market, industry, group of industries, sector, country or asset class, the fund may be adversely affected by the performance of those securities, may be subject to increased price volatility and may be more susceptible to adverse economic, market, political or regulatory occurrences affecting that market, industry, group of industries, sector, country or asset class.
 
Although certain indices encompass stocks from many different sectors of the economy, their performance may primarily reflect that of large company stocks, which tend to 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 mid or small company stocks, for instance — a fund’s large-cap holdings could reduce performance.
 
Historically, mid- and small-cap stocks have been riskier than large-cap stocks. Mid- and small-cap companies themselves may be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic events than larger, more established companies. Stock prices of smaller

3. Risk Factors (continued):
 
companies may be based in substantial part on future expectations rather than current achievements and may move sharply, especially during market upturns and downturns. During a period when mid- and small-cap stocks fall behind other types of investments — bonds or large-cap stocks, for instance — a fund’s small- and mid-cap holdings could reduce performance.
 
A fund’s investments in securities of foreign issuers may involve certain risks that are greater than those associated with investments in securities of U.S. issuers. These include risks of adverse changes in foreign economic, political, regulatory and other conditions; changes in currency exchange rates or exchange control regulations (including limitations on currency movements and exchanges); differing accounting, auditing, financial reporting and legal standards and practices; differing securities market structures; and higher transaction costs.
 
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. 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 may purchase shares of exchange-traded funds (“ETF’’) to gain exposure to a particular portion of the market while awaiting an opportunity to purchase securities directly. When a fund invests in an ETF, in addition to directly bearing the expenses associated with its own operations, it will bear a pro rata portion of the ETF’s expenses. Therefore, it may be more costly to own an ETF than to own the underlying securities directly. In addition, while the risks of owning shares of an ETF generally reflect the risks of owning the underlying securities the ETF is designed to track, lack of liquidity in an ETF can result in its value being more volatile than the underlying portfolio securities.
 
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. Certain of these risks, such as liquidity risk and market risk, are discussed elsewhere in this section. A fund’s use of derivatives is also subject to credit risk, leverage risk, lack of availability risk, valuation risk, correlation risk and tax risk. Lack of availability risk is the risk that suitable derivative transactions may not be available in all circumstances for risk management or other purposes. Credit risk is the risk that the counterparty to a derivatives transaction may not fulfill its obligations. Leverage risk is the risk that a small percentage of assets invested in derivatives can have a disproportionately larger impact on a fund. Valuation risk is the risk that a particular derivative may be valued incorrectly. Correlation risk is the risk that changes in the value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index. Tax risk is the risk that the use of derivatives may cause the fund to realize higher amounts of short-term capital gain. These risks could cause a fund to lose more than the principal amount invested.
 
A particular investment may be difficult to purchase or sell. A fund may be unable to sell illiquid securities at an advantageous time or price.
 
Securities lending involves the risk of loss of rights in the collateral or delay in recovery of the collateral if the borrower fails to return the security loaned or becomes insolvent.
 
Please refer to the funds’ prospectus for a more complete description of the principal risks of investing in the funds.
 
4. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions:
 
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 CSIM and the trust.

The Board has adopted a Shareholder Servicing Plan (the “Plan”) on behalf of the funds. The Plan enables each fund to bear expenses relating to the provision by service providers, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (a broker-dealer affiliate of CSIM, “Schwab”), of certain account maintenance, customer liaison and shareholder services to the current shareholders of the funds. Schwab serves as the funds’ paying agent under the Plan for making payments of the shareholder service fee due to the service providers (other than Schwab) under the Plan. All shareholder service fees paid by the funds to Schwab in its capacity as the funds’ paying agent will be passed through to the service providers, and Schwab will not retain any portion of such fees.
 
Pursuant to the Plan, each fund’s shares are subject to an annual shareholder servicing fee up to 0.10%. The shareholder servicing fee paid to a particular service provider is made pursuant to its written agreement with Schwab (or, in the case of payments made to Schwab, pursuant to Schwab’s written agreement with the funds). Payments under the Plan are made as described above regardless of Schwab’s or the service provider’s actual cost of providing the services. If the cost of providing the services under the Plan is less than the payments received, the unexpended portion of the fees may be retained as profit by Schwab or the service provider.
 
Although these agreements specify certain fees for these services, CSIM and its affiliates have made an additional agreement (“expense limitation”) with the funds, for so long as CSIM serves as the investment adviser to the funds, which may only be amended or terminated with the approval of the Board, to limit the total annual fund operating expenses, excluding interest, taxes and certain non-routine expenses. The expense limitation as a percentage of average daily net assets is as follows:

Effective October 19, 2012, CSIM entered into a license agreement with Frank Russell Company to use certain Russell indices and trademarks in connection with the offering and operation of certain registered investment companies. The funds have entered into a sub-license agreement with CSIM pursuant to which CSIM has agreed to sub-license certain Russell indices and trademarks to the funds. Under the sub-license agreement, each fund pays its pro rata share of licensing fees. Prior to October 19, 2012, the funds had a license agreement to use FTSE indices. See note 12 for additional information.

4. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions (continued):
 
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. Below is the summary of investment activities involving The Charles Schwab Corporation shares owned by the Schwab Fundamental US Large Company Index Fund during the report period:

    94,515       55,000       (4,300 )     145,215       $1,972,020       ($25,779 )     $28,786  
 
Certain other related parties may own shares of Schwab funds in this report. As of October 31, 2012, the shares owned by Schwab Charitable Giving Trust (an affiliate of Schwab) as a percentage of the total shares of the Schwab Fundamental International Large Company Index Fund was 9.6%.
 
The funds may engage in 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/or officers. For the period ended October 31, 2012, each fund’s total aggregate security transactions with other Schwab Funds were as follows:
 
         
Schwab Fundamental US Large Company Index Fund
    $149,986,004  
Schwab Fundamental US Small Company Index Fund
    149,986,004  
Schwab Fundamental International Large Company Index Fund
     
Schwab Fundamental International Small Company Index Fund
     
Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets Large Company Index Fund
     
 
Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, the funds may enter into interfund borrowing and lending transactions with 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 by the Board. The funds had no interfund borrowing or lending activity during the period.
 
During the period, the Schwab Fundamental US Large Company Index Fund, Schwab Fundamental US Small Company Index Fund, Schwab Fundamental International Large Company Index Fund, Schwab Fundamental International Small Company Index Fund and Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets Large Company Index Fund received a payment of $4,078, $4,131, $3,605, $187 and $2,033, respectively, related to state filing fees resulting from revised fee calculation methodologies being applied on sales of the funds’ shares in prior periods in certain states. These payments are presented in each fund’s Statement of Operations as “State filing fee reimbursement”.
 
All or a portion of the state filing fees were previously borne by CSIM through a waiver of CSIM’s management fee. As this expense was previously waived, the payments received during the period had the effect of decreasing the total “Expense reduction by CSIM and its affiliates” in each fund’s Statement of Operations. The current net operating expense ratio was not impacted by this payment.
 
5. Transfer Agent Services:
 
Boston Financial Data Services, Inc. provides transfer agent services for each fund.
 
6. Board of Trustees:
 
Trustees may include people who are officers and/or directors of the investment adviser or its affiliates. Federal securities law limits the percentage of such “interested persons” who may serve on a trust’s board, and the trust was in compliance with these

limitations throughout the report period. The trust did not pay any of these interested persons for their services as trustees, but it did pay non-interested persons (independent trustees), as noted in each fund’s Statement of Operations.
 
7. Borrowing from Banks:
 
The funds have access to custodian overdraft facilities, a committed line of credit of $150 million with State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”), 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 & Co. 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 for the committed line of credit.
 
There were no borrowings from the lines of credit by the funds during the period. However, the funds may have utilized their overdraft facility and incurred interest expense, which is disclosed in the Statement of Operations, if any. The interest expense is determined based on a negotiated rate above the current Federal Funds Rate.
 
8. Purchases and Sales/Maturities of Investment Securities:
 
For the period ended October 31, 2012, purchases and sales/maturities of securities (excluding short-term obligations) were as follows:

    286,774,257       273,232,869  
 
9. Derivatives:
 
Certain funds entered into equity index futures contracts (“futures”) during the report period. The funds invested in futures to equitize available cash. The fair value and due to brokers for futures contracts held at October 31, 2012 and the net realized/unrealized gains (losses) on futures contracts held during the period ended October 31, 2012 are presented on the face of the Portfolio Holdings, Statement of Assets and Liabilities and Statement of Operations, respectively. Refer to financial note 2(b) for the funds’ accounting policies with respect to futures contracts and financial note 3 for disclosures concerning the risks of investing in futures contracts. During the period, the month-end average values of futures contracts held by the funds and the month-end average number of contracts held 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 carryforwards may be used to offset future realized capital gains for federal income tax purposes. As of October 31, 2012, the following funds had capital loss carryforwards available to offset future 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 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.
 
Permanent book and tax basis differences may result in reclassifications between components of net assets as required. The adjustments will have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. As of October 31, 2012, the funds made the following reclassifications:

As of October 31, 2012, 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, 2012, the funds did not incur any interest or penalties.

11. Federal Income Taxes (continued):
 
On December 22, 2010, the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (“the Act”) was signed by the President. The Act is the first major piece of legislation affecting Regulated Investment Companies (“RICs”) since 1986 and it modernizes several of the federal income and excise tax provisions related to RICs.
 
Certain of the enacted provisions include:
 
Post-enactment capital losses may now be carried forward indefinitely, but must retain the character of the original loss. However, such losses must be utilized prior to the pre-enactment capital losses, which increases the likelihood that the pre-enactment capital losses will expire unused. Under pre-enactment law, capital losses could be carried forward for eight years, and carried forward as short-term capital loss, irrespective of the character of the original loss. The Act contains simplification provisions, which are aimed at preventing disqualification of a RIC for “inadvertent” failures of the asset diversification and/or qualifying income tests. Additionally, the Act exempts RICs from the preferential dividend rule, and repeals the 60-day designation requirement for certain types of pay-through income and gains.
 
Finally, the Act contains several provisions aimed at preserving the character of distributions made by a fiscal year RIC during the portion of its taxable year ending after October 31 or December 31, reducing the circumstances under which a RIC might be required to file amended Forms 1099 to restate previously reported distributions.
 
The funds have adopted the noted provisions of the Act for the period ending October 31, 2012.
 
12. Other:
 
At a meeting held on August 1, 2012, the Board approved a change to each fund’s comparative index from a FTSE RAFI Index to a Russell Fundamental Index (each an “Index”) as well as corresponding changes to (1) each fund’s investment objective such that each fund will seek to track the total return of its respective Index, and (2) each fund’s investment strategy to require each fund to invest 90% (80% in the case of Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets Large Company Index Fund) of its net assets in stocks that are included in its respective Index. In addition (as discussed in note 1), the Board also approved changing the name of Schwab Fundamental US Small-Mid Company Index Fund, Schwab Fundamental International Small-Mid Company Index Fund and Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets Index Fund to more closely align the name of each fund to that of its respective Index. These changes were effective on October 19, 2012.
 
Further, to help offset the costs of these changes to the funds, CSIM has agreed to voluntarily waive each fund’s net operating expenses to 0.00% (excluding interest, taxes, and certain non-routine expenses) from October 1, 2012 through October 31, 2012. CSIM agreed to extend this voluntary waiver for certain funds as follows: (1) from November 1, 2012 through November 15, 2012 for Schwab Fundamental International Large Company Index Fund; (2) from November 1, 2012 through December 15, 2012 for Schwab Fundamental International Small Company Index Fund; and (3) from November 1, 2012 through November 30, 2012 for Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets Large Company Index Fund.
 
13. Subsequent Events:
 
Management has determined there are no subsequent events or transactions through the date the financial statements were issued that would have materially impacted the financial statements as presented.

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 Company Index Fund, Schwab Fundamental International Large Company Index Fund, Schwab Fundamental International Small Company Index Fund, and Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets Large Company Index Fund (five of the portfolios constituting Schwab Capital Trust, hereafter collectively referred to as the “Funds”) at October 31, 2012, and the results of their operations for the year then ended, changes in 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, 2012 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 Company Index Fund, Schwab Fundamental International Large Company Index Fund, Schwab Fundamental International Small Company Index Fund and Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets Large Company 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. As part of the renewal process, Independent Trustees’ legal counsel sends an information request letter to CSIM seeking certain relevant information. The responses by CSIM are provided to the Trustees for their review prior to their meeting, and the Trustees are provided with the opportunity to request any additional materials. 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 24, 2012, and June 5, 2012, and approved the renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds for an additional one year term at the meeting held on June 5, 2012. 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, 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 with respect to the Funds. Specifically, the Trustees considered each Fund’s performance relative to a peer category of other mutual funds and appropriate indices/benchmarks, in light of total return, and market trends. As part of this review, the Trustees considered the composition of the peer category, selection criteria and the reputation of the third party who prepared the 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. Each of Schwab Fundamental International Large Company Index Fund, Schwab Fundamental International Small Company Index Fund and Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets Large Company Index Fund had performance that lagged that of a relevant peer group for certain (although not necessarily all) periods considered. Notwithstanding the forgoing, the Board concluded that other factors relevant to performance supported renewal of the Agreement with respect Schwab Fundamental International Large Company Index Fund, Schwab Fundamental International Small Company Index Fund and Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets Large Company Index Fund. These factors varied from Fund to Fund, but included one or more of the following: (1) that the underperformance was attributable, to a significant extent, to investment decisions by CSIM that were reasonable and consistent with the Fund’s investment objective and policies; (2) that recent performance showed improvement; and (3) that CSIM had taken steps designed to help improve performance. 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 a peer group of 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 CSIM’s contractual commitment to keep each Fund’s 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. 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 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 the Funds that, in each case, 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.
 
Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index A broad-based benchmark that measures the investment grade, U.S. dollar-denominated, fixed-rate taxable bond market, including Treasuries, government-related and corporate securities, mortgage-back securities (agency fixed-rate and hybrid ARM passthroughs), asset-backed securities, and commercial mortgage-backed securities.
 
beta A historical measure of an investment’s volatility relative to a market index (usually the S&P 500®). 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.
 
FTSE EPRA/NAREIT Global Index An index that is designed to provide a diverse representation of publicly traded equity REITs and listed property companies worldwide.
 
FTSE RAFI Developed ex US 1000 Index An index that is designed to track the performance of the largest listed companies domiciled in developed international markets (excluding the U.S.), selected based on the following four fundamental measures: dividends, cash flows, sales and book value.
 
FTSE RAFI Developed ex US Mid Small 1500 Index An index that is designed to track the performance of small and mid capitalization equities of companies domiciled in developed international markets (excluding the U.S.), selected based on the following four fundamental measures: dividends, cash flows, sales and book value.
 
FTSE RAFI Emerging Index An index that is designed to track the performance of the largest emerging market equities, selected based on the following four fundamental measures: dividends, cash flows, sales and book value.
 
FTSE RAFI US 1000 Index An index that is designed to track the performance of the largest listed U.S. companies, selected based on the following four fundamental measures: dividends, cash flows, sales and book value.
 
FTSE RAFI US Mid Small 1500 Index An index that is designed to track the performance of small and medium-sized listed U.S. companies, selected based on the following four fundamental measures: dividends, cash flows, sales and book value.
 
gross domestic product (GDP) The output of goods and services produced by labor and property located in the United States.
 
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.
 
MSCI EAFE Index A free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed markets, excluding the U.S. & Canada.
 
MSCI Emerging Markets Index A free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure equity market performance of emerging markets.
 
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.

From the President
 

CHANDOHA PHOTO
 
Marie Chandoha is President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. and the funds covered in this report.

 
Dear Shareholder,
 
As President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc., I’d like to thank you for trusting us to help you meet your investment objectives, and for reading this important report concerning the Laudus MarketMasters Funds. The Laudus MarketMasters funds combine complementary strategies from leading investment managers into single products, providing diversification across multiple investment styles.
 
For the 12 months ended October 31, 2012, the funds generated positive returns, while U.S. stocks outperformed international equities. Low interest rates and governmental efforts to encourage faster economic growth helped U.S. stocks generate solid returns, even as corporate earnings growth generally decelerated. The Federal Reserve extended its forecast for keeping short-term interest rates at 0-0.25% from late 2014 to mid-2015, extended “Operation Twist”—a policy of buying long-term securities and selling short-term Treasuries—and announced plans to purchase additional agency mortgage-backed securities. Small-cap stocks were generally outperformed by large-cap stocks, and value outperformed growth.
 
Internationally, the euro zone’s sovereign debt crisis represented an ongoing challenge, particularly for overseas equities. With concerns rising regarding elections in Greece and worries that the crisis might spread, international equities endured sharp losses in May. Subsequently, European leaders achieved meaningful progress, and overseas stocks began to recover, while the U.S. dollar finished mixed versus major international currencies, correspondingly affecting international stock returns for U.S. investors.

Laudus Small-Cap MarketMasters Fund™
 
 
The Laudus MarketMasters Funds use a multi-manager strategy. Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (CSIM)—the funds’ investment manager—selects investment professionals with proven long-term track records to manage a portion of each fund’s assets. In addition to selecting investment sub-advisers and allocating assets among them, CSIM is responsible for monitoring and coordinating the overall management of the funds. Each sub-adviser manages its respective portfolio relative to a comparative index that reflects its individual process and philosophy. The sub-adviser indexes may differ from the comparative index of the overall fund.
 
For the 12-month period ended October 31, 2012, Investor Shares of the Laudus Small-Cap MarketMasters Fund (the fund) returned 9.59%; its comparative index, the Russell 2000 Index (the index), returned 12.08% for the same period. Unlike the fund’s return, the index’s return does not include operational and transactional costs.
 
Market Highlights. Despite continued slow economic growth domestically and abroad, and ongoing concerns over the European debt crisis, U.S. stock markets posted strong gains over the reporting period. After dipping in late November and December 2011, they rose strongly through April. Following weakness in May and June, stocks rose again through the summer before weakening a bit in late September and through October. Although for the reporting period, U.S. large-caps outperformed their small-cap counterparts, performance of the two followed a similar trajectory, with short periods of under- or outperformance throughout the year. For the period, the large-cap Russell 1000 Index returned 14.97%, outperforming the small-cap Russell 2000 Index by nearly 3%.
 
Across the fund’s index, eight of the 10 sectors posted double-digit gains. The strongest performance came from the Financials sector, followed by Consumer Discretionary, Health Care and Materials. Information Technology was relatively weak, returning less than 2%. Only Energy lost ground, down more than 9% for the period.
 
Positioning and Strategies. In December 2011, the fund’s board removed two of the fund’s sub-advisers—Tocqueville Asset Management and TCW Investment Management—and added Mellon Capital Management. In early October 2012, Wellington Management Company was also added as a sub-adviser to the fund. Because neither Mellon nor Wellington was on board for the full reporting period, their individual performance is not addressed here. Of the fund’s two other sub-advisers, TAMRO Capital Partners, which manages the bulk of the fund’s portfolio, posted the stronger absolute performance, but slightly underperformed its small-cap core comparative index, the Russell 2000 Index. Neuberger Berman Management, which focuses on the growth side of the small-cap universe, also slightly underperformed its comparative index, the Russell 2000 Growth Index. The fund’s overall growth bias hurt it in a period in which U.S. small-cap value outperformed growth by over 4.5%.
 
Looking at the fund as a whole, its underperformance of the index is attributable to several of its sector allocations, most notably its underweight in Financials and its overweight in Energy. The fund’s weak stock selection within these two sectors further dragged on its relative performance. The fund’s overweight in Consumer Discretionary, on the other hand, worked in its favor for the period, as did its overweight in Health Care. The fund’s stock selection was strong within the Information Technology and Materials sectors, contributing positively to its relative performance.
 
From a market-capitalization perspective, although the fund’s overweight of stocks with higher market-caps than the index worked against it for the period, its stock selection among those companies overcame the drag and contributed notably to relative performance. The fund’s underweight in stocks with the smallest market-caps also detracted, further dampened by weak selection among those stocks.

Market Highlights. Despite continued slow global economic growth and ongoing concerns over the European debt crisis, world stock markets posted positive gains over the reporting period. U.S. markets significantly outperformed international ones, with the S&P 500 Index up 15.21% versus the MSCI EAFE Index and MSCI Emerging Markets Index, which gained 5.15% and 2.98%, respectively. International markets showed little differentiation between growth and value, with the MSCI EAFE Value Index eclipsing its Growth counterpart by less than 10 basis points.
 
Positioning and Strategies. In December 2011, the fund’s board added a new sub-adviser: Mellon Capital Management. Because Mellon was not on board for the full reporting period, its performance is not addressed here. The fund’s five other sub-advisers posted positive returns for the period. The strongest absolute performer was American Century Investment Management, up 14.75% and outperforming its international small/mid-cap growth index by more than 10%. Mondrian Investment Partners was only slightly lower, posting a 14.03% gain and outperforming its international small-cap index by more than 8%. William Blair & Company and Harris Associates also posted double-digit gains and outperformed their respective comparative indexes. Only WHV Investment Management/Hirayama Investments slightly underperformed its index, the MSCI EAFE Index. Over the period, the fund maintained its growth bias and its small-cap overweight. In addition, three of the fund’s sub-advisers used forward contracts to hedge currency risk in the Australian dollar, New Zealand dollar, Japanese yen, Swiss franc and Swedish krona.
 
Overall, the fund’s outperformance of the index was primarily due to stock selection. From a sector standpoint, the fund’s stock selection contributed across all 10 sectors, but stock selection in Industrials was the largest contributor. The fund’s allocation across sectors, however, detracted from its relative return, most notably due to its significant overweight in Information Technology—the index’s weakest-performing sector for the period—as well as underweights in Health Care, Consumer Staples and Financials—the index’s top three performers. The fund’s underweights in Telecommunication Services and Utilities, two sectors that lost ground for the period, contributed positively.
 
The fund’s allocation across regions contributed slightly to its relative performance, specifically due to its underweight in Asia and the Pacific Basin and its overweight in North America. However, the fund’s underweight in Europe detracted slightly, as did its overweight in emerging markets—to which the benchmark had no exposure.

All total returns on this page assume dividends and distributions were reinvested. Index figures do not include trading and management costs, which would lower performance. Indices are unmanaged, and you cannot invest in them directly. Performance results less than one year are not annualized.
 
Because the fund originally used a multi-fund strategy, performance of the Investor Shares prior to June 3, 2002 does not reflect the current strategy and may have been different if it did.
 
The fund’s performance relative to the index may be affected by fair-value pricing, see financial note 2 for more information.
 
* The 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 its affiliates. 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. The Morningstar Category return represents all active and index mutual funds within the category as of the report date.
3 As stated in the prospectus. Includes acquired fund fees and expenses incurred indirectly by the fund through its investments in other investment companies. The annualized weighted average expense ratio of these investment companies was 0.01%. 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, 2012 and held through October 31, 2012.
 
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.

All net realized and change in unrealized gains (losses) in the table above are reflected on the accompanying Statement of Operations. The change in net unrealized gains (losses) for Level 3 investments held by the fund at October 31, 2012 was ($277,789).
 
The fund’s policy is to recognize transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 as of the beginning of the fiscal year. There were security transfers in the amount of $9,463,260 and $18,892,710 from Level 1 to Level 2 and from Level 2 to Level 1, respectively, for the period ended October 31, 2012. The transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 were primarily due to the use of international fair valuation by the fund. There were no transfers in or out of Level 3 securities during the period.

Each of the Laudus MarketMasters Funds offers two share classes: Investor Shares and Select Shares®. Shares of each class represent an 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 financial note 10) at closing net asset value per share (“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 funds’ Board of Trustees (the “Board”) 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:
 
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the funds use in their preparation of financial statements. The accounting policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
 
(a) Security Valuation:
 
Under procedures approved by the Board, the investment adviser has formed a Pricing Committee to administer the pricing and valuation of portfolio securities and other assets and to ensure that prices used for internal purposes or provided by third parties reasonably reflect fair market value. Among other things, these procedures allow the funds to utilize independent pricing services, quotations from securities and financial instrument dealers and other market sources to determine fair value.
 
The funds value the securities in their portfolios every business day. The funds use the following policies to value various types of securities:
 
  •  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 at halfway between the most recent bid and ask quotes. Securities that are primarily traded on foreign exchanges are valued at the official closing price or the last sales price on the exchange where the securities are principally traded with these values then translated into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rate, unless these securities are fair valued as discussed below.
 
  •  Securities for which no quoted value is available: The Board has adopted procedures to fair value each fund’s securities when market prices are not “readily available” or are unreliable. For example, a fund may fair value a security when it is de-listed or its trading is halted or suspended; when a security’s primary pricing source is unable or unwilling to provide a

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
 
  price; or when a security’s primary trading market is closed during regular market hours. Each fund makes fair value determinations in good faith in accordance with the fund’s valuation procedures. The Pricing Committee considers a number of factors, including unobservable market inputs when arriving at fair value. The Pricing Committee may employ techniques such as the review of related or comparable assets or liabilities, related market activities, recent transactions, market multiples, book values, transactional back-testing, disposition analysis and other relevant information. The Pricing Committee regularly reviews these inputs and assumptions to calibrate the valuations. The Board convenes on a regular basis to review fair value determinations made by the funds pursuant to the procedures.
 
  •  International fair valuation: The Board has adopted procedures to fair value foreign equity securities that are traded in markets that close prior to the funds valuing 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 comparative 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 regularly reviews fair value determinations made by the funds pursuant to the procedures.
 
  •  Futures and forward foreign currency exchange contracts: valued at their settlement prices as of the close of their exchanges (for futures) or at a value based on that day’s forward 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.
 
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 measurements) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (Level 3 measurements). If the funds determine that either the volume and/or level of activity for an asset or liability has significantly decreased (from normal conditions for that asset or liability) or price quotations or observable inputs are not associated with orderly transactions, increased analysis and management judgment will be required to estimate fair value.
 
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
 
  •  Level 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 and futures contracts. Investments in underlying funds are valued at their NAV daily and are classified as Level 1 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 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 fair valuations due to significant movement in the U.S. markets occurring after the daily close of the foreign markets. The Board has approved a vendor that calculates fair valuations of international equity 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):
 
  •  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 levels associated with valuing the funds’ investments as of October 31, 2012 are disclosed in the Portfolio Holdings.
 
(b) Accounting Policies for certain Portfolio Investments (if held):
 
Futures Contracts: 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. A fund must give the broker a deposit of cash and/or securities (initial margin) whenever it enters into the futures contract. The amount of the deposit may vary from one contract to another. 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 until the contract is closed, at which time the gains or losses are realized. Futures are traded publicly on exchanges, and their market value changes daily.
 
Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts: “Forwards”, as they are known, are contracts to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The value of the forwards is accounted for as unrealized gains or losses until the contracts settle, at which time the gains or losses are realized.
 
(c) Security Transactions:
 
Security transactions are recorded as of the date the order to buy or sell the security is executed. Realized gains or losses from security transactions are based on the identified costs of the securities involved.
 
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. Realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and the difference between the recorded amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from changes in foreign exchange rates on foreign denominated assets and liabilities other than investments in securities held at the end of the reporting period. These realized and unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses are reported in foreign currency transactions or translations in the Statement of Operations. 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 are subject to non-U.S. taxes. In those instances, 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”).

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
 
(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.
 
Income received from foreign sources may result in withholding tax. Withholding taxes are accrued at the same time as the related income if the tax rate is fixed and known, unless a tax withheld is reclaimable from the local tax authorities in which case it is recorded as receivable. If the tax rate is not known or estimable, such expense or reclaim receivable is recorded when the net proceeds are received.
 
(e) Expenses:
 
Expenses that are specific to a 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.
 
For funds offering multiple share classes, the net investment income, other than class specific expenses, and the realized and unrealized gains or losses, are 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, if any, once a year.
 
(g) Custody Credit:
 
The funds have an arrangement with their custodian bank, State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”), 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 to GAAP. Notwithstanding this, shareholders should understand that in order to follow these principles, fund management has to make estimates and assumptions that affect the information reported in the financial statements. It’s possible that once the results are known, they may turn out to be different from these estimates and these differences may be material.
 
(i) Federal Income Taxes:
 
The funds intend to meet federal income and excise tax requirements for regulated investment companies. 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) Foreign Taxes:
 
The funds may be subject to foreign taxes (a portion of which may be reclaimable) on income, corporate events, foreign currency exchanges and capital gains on investments. All foreign taxes are recorded in accordance with the applicable foreign tax regulations and rates that exist in foreign markets in which the funds invest. These foreign taxes, if any, are paid by the funds and are disclosed in the Statement of Operations. Foreign taxes payable as of October 31, 2012, if any, are reflected in the funds’ Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
 
(k) 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.

(l) New Accounting Pronouncements:
 
In December 2011, Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-11, “Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities,” was issued and is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after January 1, 2013. The ASU enhances disclosure requirements with respect to an entity’s rights of offset and related arrangements associated with its financial and derivative instruments. Management is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2011-11 may have on the funds’ financial statement disclosures.
 
3. Risk Factors:
 
Investing in the funds may involve certain risks, as discussed in the funds’ prospectus, including, but not limited to, those described below. Any of these risks could cause an investor to lose money.
 
Stock markets rise and fall daily. As with any investment whose performance is tied to these markets, the value of the investment in a fund will fluctuate, which means that investors 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. In addition, equity markets tend to move in cycles, which may cause stock prices to fall over short or extended periods of time.
 
The fund’s investment managers attempt to reduce the impact of the performance of any given investment style by investing in both value and growth style stocks. But whenever value stocks fall out of favor with investors, they may underperform growth stocks, and vice versa.
 
Historically, small-cap stocks have been riskier than large- and mid-cap stocks, and their prices may move sharply, especially during market upturns and downturns. Small-cap companies 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 and mid-cap stocks, for instance — a fund’s small-cap holdings could reduce performance.
 
Both large- and mid-cap stocks tend to go in and out of favor based on market and economic conditions. However, stocks of mid-cap companies tend to be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic events than larger, more established companies. During a period when large- and mid-cap U.S. stocks fall behind other types of investments — small-cap stocks, for instance — a fund’s large- and mid-cap holdings could reduce performance.
 
As with all actively managed funds, the strategies of the fund’s managers — its investment adviser and investment managers — may not achieve their desired results.
 
A fund’s investments in securities of foreign issuers may involve certain risks that are greater than those associated with investments in securities of U.S. issuers. These include risks of adverse changes in foreign economic, political, regulatory and other conditions; changes in currency exchange rates or exchange control regulations (including limitations on currency movements and exchanges); differing accounting, auditing, financial reporting and legal standards and practices; differing securities market structures; and higher transaction costs.
 
Emerging markets may be more likely to experience political turmoil or rapid changes in market or economic conditions than more developed countries. Such countries often have less uniformity in accounting and reporting requirements and unreliable securities valuation and greater risk associated with the custody of securities. 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.
 
As a result of the fund’s investments in securities denominated in, and/or receiving revenues in, foreign currencies, the fund will be subject to currency risk. This is the risk that those currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar. If such an event occurs, the dollar value of an investment in the fund would be adversely affected.
 
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. Certain of these risks, such as liquidity risk and market risk, are discussed elsewhere in this section. A fund’s use of derivatives is also subject to credit risk, leverage risk, lack of availability risk, valuation risk, correlation risk and tax risk. Lack of availability risk is the risk that suitable derivative transactions may not be available in all circumstances for risk management or other purposes. Credit risk is the risk that the counterparty to a derivatives transaction may not fulfill its obligations. Leverage risk is the risk that a small percentage of assets invested in derivatives can have a

3. Risk Factors (continued):
 
disproportionately larger impact on a fund. Valuation risk is the risk that a particular derivative may be valued incorrectly. Correlation risk is the risk that changes in the value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index. Tax risk is the risk that the use of derivatives may cause the fund to realize higher amounts of short-term capital gain. These risks could cause a fund to lose more than the principal amount invested.
 
Although CSIM monitors and seeks to coordinate the overall management of a fund, each investment manager makes investment decisions independently, and it is possible that the investment styles of the investment managers may not complement one another. As a result, a fund’s exposure to a given stock, industry or investment style could unintentionally be smaller or larger than if a fund had a single manager.
 
A particular investment may be difficult to purchase or sell. A fund may be unable to sell illiquid securities at an advantageous time or price.
 
Please refer to the funds’ prospectus for a more complete description of the principal risks of investing in the funds.
 
4. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions:
 
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 CSIM and the trust.
 
For its advisory and administrative services to the following funds, CSIM is entitled to receive an annual fee, payable monthly, based on a percentage of each fund’s average daily net assets as follows:
 
                 
    Laudus Small-Cap
  Laudus International
% of Average Daily Net Assets
 
MarketMasters Fund

First $500 million
    1.17%       1.29%  
$500 million to $1 billion
    1.13%       1.275%  
Over $1 billion
    1.07%       1.25%  
 
The Board has adopted a Shareholder Servicing Plan (the “Plan”) on behalf of the funds. The Plan enables each fund to bear expenses relating to the provision by service providers, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (a broker-dealer affiliate of CSIM, “Schwab”), of certain account maintenance, customer liaison and shareholder services to the current shareholders of the funds. Schwab serves as the funds’ paying agent under the Plan for making payments of the shareholder service fee due to the service providers (other than Schwab) under the Plan. All shareholder service fees paid by the funds to Schwab in its capacity as the funds’ paying agent will be passed through to the service providers, and Schwab will not retain any portion of such fees.
 
Pursuant to the Plan, each fund’s shares are subject to an annual shareholder servicing fee up to 0.25% for Investor Shares and 0.20% for Select Shares. The shareholder servicing fee paid to a particular service provider is made pursuant to its written agreement with Schwab (or, in the case of payments made to Schwab, pursuant to Schwab’s written agreement with the funds), and the funds will pay no more than 0.25% for Investor Shares and 0.20% for Select Shares of the average annual daily net asset value of the fund shares owned by shareholders holding shares through such service providers. Payments under the Plan are made as described above regardless of Schwab’s or the service provider’s actual cost of providing the services. If the cost of providing the services under the Plan is less than the payments received, the unexpended portion of the fees may be retained as profit by Schwab or the service provider.
 
Although these agreements specify certain fees for these services, CSIM and its affiliates have made an additional agreement (“expense limitation”) with the funds, for so long as CSIM serves as the investment adviser to the funds, which may only be amended or terminated with the approval of the Board, to limit the total annual fund operating expenses, excluding interest, taxes and certain non-routine expenses. The expense limitation, effective June 6, 2012, as a percentage of average daily net assets is as follows:

The funds may engage in 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/or officers. For the period ended October 31, 2012, the funds had no direct 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 with 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 by the Board. The funds had no interfund borrowing or lending activity during the period.
 
During the period, the Laudus Small-Cap MarketMasters Fund and Laudus International MarketMasters Fund received a payment of $10,573 and $9,194, respectively, related to state filing fees resulting from revised fee calculation methodologies being applied on sales of the funds’ shares in prior periods in certain states. These payments are presented in each fund’s Statement of Operations as “State filing fee reimbursement”.
 
All or a portion of the state filing fees were previously borne by CSIM through a waiver of CSIM’s management fee. As this expense was previously waived, the payments received during the period had the effect of decreasing the total “Expense reduction by CSIM and its affiliates” in each fund’s Statement of Operations. The current net operating expense ratio was not impacted by this payment.
 
5. Transfer Agent Services:
 
Boston Financial Data Services, Inc. provides transfer agent services for each fund.
 
6. Board of Trustees:
 
Trustees may include people who are officers and/or directors of the investment adviser or its affiliates. Federal securities law limits the percentage of such “interested persons” who may serve on a trust’s board, and the trust was in compliance with these limitations throughout the report period. The trust did not pay any of these interested persons for their services as trustees, but it did pay non-interested persons (independent trustees), as noted in each fund’s Statement of Operations.

The funds have access to custodian overdraft facilities, a committed line of credit of $150 million with State Street, 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 & Co. 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 for the committed line of credit.
 
There were no borrowings from the lines of credit by the funds during the period. However, the funds may have utilized their overdraft facility and incurred interest expense, which is disclosed in the Statement of Operations, if any. The interest expense is determined based on a negotiated rate above the current Federal Funds Rate.

11. Federal Income Taxes (continued):
 
The tax-basis components of distributions paid during the current and prior fiscal years were as follows:
 
                 
    Laudus Small-Cap
  Laudus International
   
MarketMasters Fund
 
MarketMasters Fund
 
Current period distributions
Ordinary income
    $—       $14,971,654  
Long-term capital gains

Prior period distributions
Ordinary income
    $—       $22,784,254  
Long-term capital gains
           
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.
 
Permanent book and tax basis differences may result in reclassifications between components of net assets as required. The adjustments will have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. As of October 31, 2012, the funds made the following reclassifications:
 
                 
    Laudus Small-Cap
  Laudus International
   
MarketMasters Fund
 
MarketMasters Fund
 
Capital shares
    ($195,440 )     $—  
Undistributed net investment income
    194,364       12,192,733  
Net realized capital gains/(losses)
    1,076       (12,192,733 )
 
As of October 31, 2012, 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, 2012, the funds did not incur any interest or penalties.
 
On December 22, 2010, the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (“the Act”) was signed by the President. The Act is the first major piece of legislation affecting Regulated Investment Companies (“RICs”) since 1986 and it modernizes several of the federal income and excise tax provisions related to RICs.
 
Certain of the enacted provisions include:
 
Post-enactment capital losses may now be carried forward indefinitely, but must retain the character of the original loss. However, such losses must be utilized prior to the pre-enactment capital losses, which increases the likelihood that the pre-enactment capital losses will expire unused. Under pre-enactment law, capital losses could be carried forward for eight years, and carried forward as short-term capital loss, irrespective of the character of the original loss. The Act contains simplification provisions, which are aimed at preventing disqualification of a RIC for “inadvertent” failures of the asset diversification and/or qualifying income tests. Additionally, the Act exempts RICs from the preferential dividend rule, and repeals the 60-day designation requirement for certain types of pay-through income and gains.
 
Finally, the Act contains several provisions aimed at preserving the character of distributions made by a fiscal year RIC during the portion of its taxable year ending after October 31 or December 31, reducing the circumstances under which a RIC might be required to file amended Forms 1099 to restate previously reported distributions.
 
The funds have adopted the noted provisions of the Act for the period ending October 31, 2012.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
 
 
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 referred to as the “Funds”) at October 31, 2012, and the results of their operations for the year then ended, changes in 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, 2012 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Approval of Investment Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements
 
Approval of Renewal 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 fund1 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 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 subadvisory agreements between CSIM and Neuberger Berman Management LLC and TAMRO Capital Partners, LLC 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 WHV Investment Management relating to the Laudus International Market-Masters 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. 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. As part of the renewal process, Independent Trustees’ legal counsel sends an information request letter to CSIM and CSIM sends an information request letter to each of the Sub-Advisers seeking certain relevant information. The responses by CSIM and the Sub-Advisers are provided to the Trustees for their review prior to their meeting, and the Trustees are provided with the opportunity to request any additional materials.
 
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 24, 2012, and June 5, 2012, and approved the renewal of the Agreements with respect to the Funds for an additional one year term at the meeting held on June 5, 2012. 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, 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. 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 category of other mutual funds and appropriate indices/ benchmarks, in light of total return, and market trends. As part of this review, the Trustees considered the composition of the peer category, selection criteria and the reputation of the third party who prepared the 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 and Sub-Adviser profitability discussed below. Each of Laudus Small-Cap MarketMasters Fund and Laudus International MarketMasters Fund had performance that lagged that of a relevant peer group for certain (although not necessarily all) periods considered. Notwithstanding the forgoing, the Board concluded that other factors relevant to performance supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to Laudus Small-Cap MarketMasters Fund and Laudus International MarketMasters Fund. These factors included the following: (1) that the underperformance was attributable, to a significant extent, to investment decisions by CSIM that were reasonable and consistent with the Fund’s investment objective and policies; (2) that recent performance showed improvement; and (3) that CSIM had taken steps designed to help improve performance. 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 a peer group of 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 CSIM’s contractual commitment to keep each Fund’s 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, wrap accounts and offshore funds, 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. With respect to CSIM, 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 respective affiliates. The Trustees also considered the compensation flowing to the Sub-Advisers, directly or indirectly. The Trustees also considered any other benefits derived by the Sub-Advisers from their relationship with the Funds, such as whether, by virtue of its management of the Funds, any Sub-Adviser obtains investment information or other research resources that aid it in providing advisory services to other clients. With respect to the Sub-Advisers, 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 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
 
 
 
72 


Table of Contents

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 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 the Funds that, in each case, 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.
 
Approval of New Sub-Advisory Agreements
 
At a meeting of the Board held on December 8, 2011, CSIM recommended, and the Trustees, including each of the Independent Trustees, approved the a new investment sub-advisory agreement between CSIM and Mellon Capital Management Corp. (“Mellon Capital”), pursuant to which Mellon Capital was appointed as a sub-adviser to each of Laudus Small-Cap MarketMasters Fund and Laudus International MarketMasters Fund (each, a “Fund,” collectively, the “Funds”). Also, at a meeting of the Board held on September 25, 2012, CSIM recommended, and the Trustees, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, approved a new investment sub-advisory agreement between CSIM and Wellington Management Company LLP (“Wellington Management”), pursuant to which Wellington Management was appointed as a sub-adviser to Laudus Small-Cap MarketMasters Fund (“New Sub-Advisory Agreement,” together with the sub-advisory agreement with Mellon Capital, “New Sub-Advisory Agreements”). As appropriate, each of Mellon Capital and Wellington Management is hereinafter refers to as “sub-adviser,” and together, “sub-advisers.”
 
For each New Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Board was provided with detailed materials related to Mellon Capital and Wellington Management in advance of and at each meeting. The materials included, but were not limited to, information about each sub-adviser’s (a) quality of investment management and other services; (b) investment management personnel; (c) operations and financial condition; (d) brokerage practices (including any soft dollar arrangements) and other investment strategies; (f) compliance systems; (g) policies on, and compliance procedures for, personal securities transactions; (h) reputation, expertise and resources; (i) performance compared with similar advisers; and (j) performance with respect to similar accounts managed by each sub-adviser. In addition, the Board was provided with information about the level of the sub-advisory fees to be paid to each sub-adviser, and comparable fees paid to each sub-adviser for managing similar accounts. The Independent Trustees received advice from independent counsel to the Independent Trustees, including a memorandum regarding the responsibilities of Trustees for the approval of each New Sub-Advisory Agreement. The proposed appointments of Mellon Capital and Wellington Management were first reviewed and discussed in the Investment Oversight Committee of the Board (the “Committee”) on December 8, 2011 and September 24, 2012, respectively. Following such discussions, the Committee recommended each New Sub-Advisory Agreement to the Board for approval.
 
In its consideration of the approval of each New Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Board considered a variety of specific factors, including:
 
1.  the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided to each Fund under the applicable New Sub-Advisory Agreement, including the resources of each sub-adviser to be dedicated to each applicable Fund;
 
2.  each sub-adviser’s investment performance in providing sub-advisory services with respect to similar accounts;
 
3.  each applicable Fund’s expenses and how those expenses would be impacted by the hiring of each sub-adviser;
 
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 may be realized as each Fund grows and whether fee levels in each New Sub-Advisory Agreement reflect the 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 sub-advisory services to be provided by each sub-adviser to the applicable Fund and the resources the sub-adviser will dedicate to the Fund. In this regard, the Trustees considered the information provided by each sub-adviser with respect to its history, reputation, expertise, qualifications of its personnel, and experience in managing the type of strategies for which the sub-adviser was being engaged. The Board also considered reports regarding the search process undertaken by CSIM that led to the identification of Mellon Capital and Wellington Management by CSIM as a well-qualified sub-advisers to each applicable Fund with an investment

style consistent with the Fund’s investment objective and strategies, and CSIM’s desired risk/return profile. The Trustees also considered the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer’s evaluation of each sub-adviser’s compliance program and the recommended compliance monitoring program for the sub-adviser. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the nature, extent and quality of services to be provided by sub-advisers to each applicable Fund and the resources of the sub-adviser to be dedicated to such Fund supported approval of the applicable New Sub-Advisory Agreement.
 
Investment Performance. The Board considered each sub-adviser’s investment performance in determining whether to approve the applicable New Sub-Advisory Agreement. Specifically, the Trustees considered each sub-adviser’s tracking error relative to appropriate benchmarks as well as its overall relative performance in providing investment advisory services to similar accounts. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the investment performance of each sub-adviser supported approval of the applicable New Sub-Advisory Agreement.
 
Fund Expenses. With respect to each Fund’s expenses, the Trustees considered the rate of compensation to be paid under the applicable New Sub-Advisory Agreement, and the Fund’s net operating expense ratio. When considering the fees to be paid to Mellon Capital or Wellington Management, the Trustees took into account the fact that each sub-adviser will be compensated by CSIM, and not by the applicable Fund directly, and that the fees paid to each sub-adviser would not impact the fees paid by the Fund to CSIM. The Trustees also considered fees charged by each sub-adviser to comparable accounts, such as separately managed accounts. Finally, the Board considered CSIM’s statements that the fees to be paid to each sub-adviser are reasonable in light of the anticipated quality of services to be provided by the sub-adviser. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the fees to be paid to each sub-adviser are reasonable and supported approval of the applicable New Sub-Advisory Agreement.
 
Profitability. With respect to the profitability of CSIM, the Trustees considered projected profitability to CSIM before and after the appointment of Mellon Capital or Wellington Management as a new sub-adviser. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the expected profitability of CSIM supported approval of the each New Sub-Advisory Agreement. With respect to each sub-adviser, no historical information regarding the profitability of its relationship to the applicable Fund was available. The Trustees took into account, however, the fact that the sub-advisers will be compensated by CSIM, and not by the applicable Fund directly, and that the compensation paid to each sub-adviser reflects an arms-length negotiation between CSIM and the sub-adviser, which are unaffiliated with each other.
 
Economies of Scale. The Board considered the existence of any economies of scale and whether those are passed along to each Fund’s shareholders through a graduated investment advisory fee schedule or other means, including any fee waivers by CSIM and its affiliates. In connection with its evaluation, the Board took into account the fact that the existing contractual investment advisory fee schedules and the proposed sub-advisory fee schedules relating to each Fund include lower fees at higher graduated asset levels. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that each 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 each Independent Trustee (or a majority of the Independent Trustees, in the case of Wellington Management), approved each New Sub-Advisory Agreement for an initial two-year term and concluded that the compensation under the New Sub-Advisory Agreement is fair and reasonable in light of such services, and such other matters as the Trustees 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.
 
Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index A broad-based benchmark that measures the investment grade, U.S. dollar-denominated, fixed-rate taxable bond market, including Treasuries, government-related and corporate securities, mortgage-back securities (agency fixed-rate and hybrid ARM passthroughs), asset-backed securities, and commercial mortgage-backed securities.
 
beta A historical measure of an investment’s volatility relative to a market index (usually the S&P 500®). 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.
 
gross domestic product (GDP) The output of goods and services produced by labor and property located in the United States.
 
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.
 
MSCI EAFE Index A free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed markets, excluding the U.S. & Canada.
 
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.
 
Russell 2000 Index An index that measures the performance of the small-cap segment of the U.S. equity universe.
 
S&P 500 Index A market capitalization index that is designed to measure the performance of 500 leading publicly held companies in leading industries of the U.S. economy.
 
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.

Marie Chandoha is President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. and the funds covered in this report.

 
Dear Shareholder,
 
As President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc., I’d like to thank you for trusting us to help you meet your investment objectives, and for reading this important report concerning the Schwab Target Funds. The Schwab Target Funds offer a diversified blend of active, passive, proprietary, and third-party strategies. These funds are professionally managed according to projected retirement dates, rebalancing from aggressive asset allocation to more conservative as a target date approaches and beyond.
 
For the 12 months ended October 31, 2012, the funds generated positive returns, as U.S. stocks solidly outperformed international equities, and as U.S. fixed-income securities outperformed the narrowly positive returns of international fixed-income securities.
 
U.S. equities benefitted from low rates and continued governmental efforts to encourage faster economic growth, while the euro zone’s sovereign debt crisis represented an ongoing challenge, particularly for international equities. With concerns regarding elections in Greece and worries that the debt crisis might spread, international equities endured sharp losses in May. Subsequently, European leaders achieved meaningful progress, and international equities began to recover.
 
Bonds—in the U.S. and internationally—experienced intermittent periods of strength, while economic growth decelerated in many parts of the world. The European Central Bank, Bank of England, Bank of Japan, and U.S. Federal

From the President continued
 

For the 12 months ended October 31, 2012, the funds generated positive returns, as U.S. stocks solidly outperformed international equities, and as U.S. fixed-income securities outperformed the narrowly positive returns of international fixed-income securities.

Reserve were among the world’s central banks that maintained low interest-rate policies geared toward improving their region’s or country’s economic prospects.
 
U.S. stocks and bonds outperformed their international counterparts for the report period. In spite of softening U.S. corporate profit growth, the Russell 1000 Index returned 15.0%, compared with the 5.2% return of the MSCI EAFE Index and the 3.0% return of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index in U.S. dollar terms. The Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index returned 5.3%, and in U.S. dollar terms, the Citigroup Non-U.S. Dollar World Government Bond Index returned 1.6%.

Schwab Target 2010 Fund
 
 
The Schwab Target 2010 Fund (the 2010 Fund) seeks to provide capital appreciation and income consistent with its current asset allocation, and seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing primarily in a combination of other Schwab Funds and Laudus Funds. The 2010 Fund may also invest in unaffiliated third-party mutual funds. The target asset allocation is adjusted annually by the investment adviser; as of the last annual adjustment on January 5, 2012, the 2010 Fund’s asset allocation was approximately 39% equity securities, 54% fixed-income securities and 7% money market funds. (For portfolio allocations as of the end of this reporting period, please see the 2010 Fund’s Portfolio Holdings included in this report.)
 
For the 12-month period ended October 31, 2012, the 2010 Fund returned 7.63%, while its internally calculated comparative index, the Target 2010 Composite Index (the composite index), returned 7.40%. Unlike the 2010 Fund’s return, the composite index’s return does not include operational and transactional costs.
 
Market Highlights. Despite continued slow global economic growth and ongoing concerns over the European debt crisis, world stock markets posted gains over the reporting period. U.S. markets significantly outperformed international markets, with the S&P 500 Index up 15.21% versus the MSCI EAFE Index and MSCI Emerging Markets Index, which gained 5.15% and 2.98%, respectively. Global real estate was strong for the period, up more than 16%, with non–U.S. real estate up nearly 19%. In the U.S., large-cap stocks outperformed small-cap stocks by nearly 3%, with value outperforming growth by nearly 4%. U.S. bonds, as measured by the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, returned 5.25% for the period, while Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS) posted the strongest return among U.S. fixed-income—up 8.03%.
 
Positioning and Strategies. The 2010 Fund’s asset allocations were broadly in line with those of the composite index over the reporting period.
 
At an asset-class level, the 2010 Fund’s U.S. equity exposures provided the greatest contribution to total return, although most underperformed the composite index’s U.S. equity allocation component, the Dow Jones U.S. Total Stock Market Index, which returned 14.73%. The Schwab Core Equity Fund was the top contributor to absolute return, gaining 13.99% for the period, but dragged on the 2010 Fund’s relative return as it underperformed the composite index’s U.S. equity allocation component. The position in the Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund, which returned 15.09%, added to both absolute and relative performance. The Laudus Growth Investors U.S. Large Cap Growth Fund—the largest U.S. equity position—returned 10.11%, detracting from relative performance.
 
Within the 2010 Fund’s U.S. fixed-income allocation, the top contributor to total return was the Schwab Total Bond Market Fund, which gained 4.94%. On a relative basis, however, it slightly underperformed the composite index’s U.S. fixed-income component, the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, which returned 5.25%. The PIMCO Total Return Fund (Institutional Shares) and the Loomis Sayles Investment Grade Bond Fund contributed positively to both absolute and relative performance, gaining 10.39% and 9.69%, respectively.
 
The 2010 Fund’s international equity allocation boosted absolute and relative performance. The Laudus International MarketMasters Fund (Select Shares)—the largest international equity position—was particularly valuable; it returned 10.20%, significantly outpacing the composite index’s international equity allocation component, the MSCI EAFE Index, which returned 5.15%. The 2010 Fund’s positions in the William Blair Institutional Small Cap Growth Fund (Institutional Shares) and American Century International Growth Fund (Institutional Shares) also contributed positively, returning 9.35% and 9.55%, respectively.

The components that make up the composite index may vary over time.
4 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 0.63%.

Schwab Target 2020 Fund
 
 
The Schwab Target 2020 Fund (the 2020 Fund) seeks to provide capital appreciation and income consistent with its current asset allocation, and seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing primarily in a combination of other Schwab Funds and Laudus Funds. The 2020 Fund may also invest in unaffiliated third-party mutual funds. The target asset allocation is adjusted annually by the investment adviser; as of the last annual adjustment on January 5, 2012, the 2020 Fund’s asset allocation was approximately 61% equity securities, 37% fixed income securities, and 2% money market funds. At its target date, the 2020 Fund’s allocation will be approximately 40% equity securities, 53% fixed-income securities and 7% money market funds. (For portfolio allocations as of the end of this reporting period, please see the 2020 Fund’s Portfolio Holdings included in this report.)
 
For the 12-month period ended October 31, 2012, the 2020 Fund returned 9.52%, while its internally calculated comparative index, the Target 2020 Composite Index (the composite index), returned 9.40%. Unlike the 2020 Fund’s return, the composite index’s return does not include operational and transactional costs.
 
Market Highlights. Despite continued slow global economic growth and ongoing concerns over the European debt crisis, world stock markets posted gains over the reporting period. U.S. markets significantly outperformed international markets, with the S&P 500 Index up 15.21% versus the MSCI EAFE Index and MSCI Emerging Markets Index, which gained 5.15% and 2.98%, respectively. Global real estate was strong for the period, up more than 16%, with non–U.S. real estate up nearly 19%. In the U.S., large-cap stocks outperformed small-cap stocks by nearly 3%, with value outperforming growth by nearly 4%. U.S. bonds, as measured by the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, returned 5.25% for the period, while Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS) posted the strongest return among U.S. fixed-income—up 8.03%.
 
Positioning and Strategies. The 2020 Fund’s asset allocations were broadly in line with those of the composite index over the reporting period.
 
At an asset-class level, the 2020 Fund’s U.S. equity exposures provided the greatest contribution to total return for the period, although most underperformed the composite index’s U.S. equity allocation component, the Dow Jones U.S. Total Stock Market Index, which returned 14.73% for the reporting period. The top contributor to absolute return was the Schwab Core Equity Fund—the largest U.S. equity position—which gained 13.99% for the period, but dragged on the 2020 Fund’s relative return as it underperformed the composite index’s U.S. equity allocation component. The position in the Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund, which returned 15.09%, added to both absolute and relative performance. The Laudus Growth Investors U.S. Large Cap Growth Fund and Laudus Small-Cap MarketMasters Fund (Select Shares) detracted from relative performance, returning 10.11% and 9.80%, respectively.
 
Within the 2020 Fund’s U.S. fixed-income allocation, the top contributor to total return was the Schwab Total Bond Market Fund, which gained 4.94%. On a relative basis, however, it slightly underperformed the composite index’s U.S. fixed-income component, the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, which returned 5.25%. The PIMCO Total Return Fund (Institutional Shares) and the Loomis Sayles Investment Grade Bond Fund contributed positively to both absolute and relative performance, gaining 10.39% and 9.69%, respectively.
 
The 2020 Fund’s international equity allocation boosted absolute and relative performance. The Laudus International MarketMasters Fund (Select Shares)—the largest international equity position—was particularly valuable; it returned 10.20%, significantly outpacing the composite index’s international equity allocation component, the MSCI EAFE Index, which returned 5.15%. The 2020 Fund’s positions in the William Blair Institutional Small Cap Growth Fund (Institutional Shares) and American Century International Growth Fund (Institutional Shares) also contributed positively, returning 9.35% and 9.55%, respectively.

The components that make up the composite index may vary over time.
4 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 0.77%.

Schwab Target 2035 Fund
 
 
The Schwab Target 2035 Fund (the 2035 Fund) seeks to provide capital appreciation and income consistent with its current asset allocation, and seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing primarily in a combination of other Schwab Funds and Laudus Funds. The 2035 Fund may also invest in unaffiliated third-party mutual funds. The target asset allocation is adjusted annually by the investment adviser; as of the last annual adjustment on January 5, 2012, the 2035 Fund’s asset allocation was approximately 84% equity securities, 14% fixed income securities, and 2% money market funds. At its target date, the 2035 Fund’s allocation will be approximately 40% equity securities, 53% fixed-income securities and 7% money market funds. (For portfolio allocations as of the end of this reporting period, please see the 2035 Fund’s Portfolio Holdings included in this report.)
 
For the 12-month period ended October 31, 2012, the 2035 Fund returned 10.89%, while its internally calculated comparative index, the Target 2035 Composite Index (the composite index), returned 11.20%. Unlike the 2035 Fund’s return, the composite index’s return does not include operational and transactional costs.
 
Market Highlights. Despite continued slow global economic growth and ongoing concerns over the European debt crisis, world stock markets posted gains over the reporting period. U.S. markets significantly outperformed international markets, with the S&P 500 Index up 15.21% versus the MSCI EAFE Index and MSCI Emerging Markets Index, which gained 5.15% and 2.98%, respectively. Global real estate was strong for the period, up more than 16%, with non–U.S. real estate up nearly 19%. In the U.S., large-cap stocks outperformed small-cap stocks by nearly 3%, with value outperforming growth by nearly 4%. U.S. bonds, as measured by the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, returned 5.25% for the period, while Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS) posted the strongest return among U.S. fixed-income—up 8.03%.
 
Positioning and Strategies. The 2035 Fund’s asset allocations were broadly in line with those of the composite index over the reporting period.
 
At an asset-class level, the 2035 Fund’s U.S. equity exposures provided the greatest contribution to total return, although most underperformed the composite index’s U.S. equity allocation component, the Dow Jones U.S. Total Stock Market Index, which returned 14.73%. The Schwab Core Equity Fund was the top contributor to absolute return, gaining 13.99% for the period, but dragged on the 2035 Fund’s relative return as it underperformed the composite index’s U.S. equity allocation component. The position in the Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund, which returned 15.09%, added to both absolute and relative performance. The Laudus Growth Investors U.S. Large Cap Growth Fund—the largest U.S. equity position—returned 10.11%, detracting from relative performance.
 
The 2035 Fund’s international equity allocation boosted absolute and relative performance. The Laudus International MarketMasters Fund (Select Shares)—the largest international equity position—was particularly valuable; it returned 10.20%, significantly outpacing the composite index’s international equity allocation component, the MSCI EAFE Index, which returned 5.15%. The 2035 Fund’s positions in the William Blair Institutional Small Cap Growth Fund (Institutional Shares) and American Century International Growth Fund (Institutional Shares) also contributed positively, returning 9.35% and 9.55%, respectively.
 
Within the 2035 Fund’s U.S. fixed-income allocation, the top contributor to total return was the Schwab Total Bond Market Fund, which gained 4.94%. On a relative basis, however, it slightly underperformed the composite index’s U.S. fixed-income allocation component, the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, which returned 5.25%. The PIMCO Total Return Fund (Institutional Shares) contributed positively to both absolute and relative performance, gaining 10.39%.

Table of Contents

 
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, 2012 and held through October 31, 2012.
 
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 as of the end of the period, 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 (“ETFs”), 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.
 
Each fund in this report offers one share class. Shares are bought and sold (subject to a redemption fee, see financial note 9) at closing net asset value per share (“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 funds’ Board of Trustees (the “Board”) 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:
 
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the funds use in their preparation of financial statements. The accounting policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). 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:
 
Under procedures approved by the Board, the investment adviser has formed a Pricing Committee to administer the pricing and valuation of portfolio securities and other assets and to ensure that prices used for internal purposes or provided by third parties reasonably reflect fair market value. Among other things, these procedures allow the funds to utilize independent pricing services, quotations from securities and financial instrument dealers and other market sources to determine fair value.
 
The funds value the securities in their portfolios every business day. The funds use the following policies to value various types of securities:
 
  •  Underlying funds: valued at their respective net asset values.
 
  •  Securities for which no quoted value is available: The Board has adopted procedures to fair value each fund’s securities when market prices are not “readily available” or are unreliable. For example, a fund may fair value a security when it is

Financial Notes (continued)
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
 
  de-listed or its trading is halted or suspended; when a security’s primary pricing source is unable or unwilling to provide a price; or when a security’s primary trading market is closed during regular market hours. Each fund makes fair value determinations in good faith in accordance with the fund’s valuation procedures. The Pricing Committee considers a number of factors, including unobservable market inputs when arriving at fair value. The Pricing Committee may employ techniques such as the review of related or comparable assets or liabilities, related market activities, recent transactions, market multiples, book values, transactional back-testing, disposition analysis and other relevant information. The Pricing Committee regularly reviews these inputs and assumptions to calibrate the valuations. The Board convenes on a regular basis to review fair value determinations made by the funds pursuant to the procedures.
 
  •  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 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 measurements) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (Level 3 measurements). If the funds determine that either the volume and/or level of activity for an asset or liability has significantly decreased (from normal conditions for that asset or liability) or price quotations or observable inputs are not associated with orderly transactions, increased analysis and management judgment will be required to estimate fair value.
 
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
 
  •  Level 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. Investments in underlying funds are valued at their NAV daily and are classified as Level 1 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 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. 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 levels associated with valuing the funds’ investments as of October 31, 2012 are disclosed in the 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 or losses from security transactions are based on the identified costs of the securities involved.

Financial Notes (continued)
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
 
(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 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.
 
(e) Distributions to Shareholders:
 
The funds make distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, once a year.
 
(f) Accounting Estimates:
 
The accounting policies described in this report conform to GAAP. Notwithstanding this, shareholders should understand that in order to follow these principles, fund management has to make estimates and assumptions that affect the information reported in the financial statements. It’s possible that once the results are known, they may turn out to be different from these estimates and these differences may be material.
 
(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.
 
(i) New Accounting Pronouncements:
 
In December 2011, Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-11, “Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities,” was issued and is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after January 1, 2013. The ASU enhances disclosure requirements with respect to an entity’s rights of offset and related arrangements associated with its financial and derivative instruments. Management is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2011-11 may have on the funds’ financial statement disclosures.
 
3. Risk Factors:
 
Investing in the funds may involve certain risks, as discussed in the funds’ prospectus, including, but not limited to, those described below. Any of these risks could cause an investor to lose money.
 
Asset Allocation Risk. The funds are subject to asset allocation risk, which is the risk that the selection of the underlying funds and the allocation of a fund’s assets among the various asset classes and market segments will cause the funds to underperform other funds with a similar investment objective.
 
Affiliated Fund Risk. The investment adviser’s authority to select and substitute underlying funds from a variety of affiliated and unaffiliated mutual funds may create a conflict of interest because the fees paid to it by some underlying funds are higher than the fees paid by other underlying funds. However, the portfolio manager is a fiduciary to the fund and is legally obligated to act in the fund’s best interests when selecting underlying funds, without taking fees into consideration.

Financial Notes (continued)
 
3. Risk Factors (continued):
 
Market Risk. Stock and bond markets rise and fall daily. As with any investment whose performance is tied to these markets, the value of an investment in the funds will fluctuate, which means that an investor could lose money.
 
Underlying Fund Investment Risk. The value of your investment in the funds is based primarily on the prices of the underlying funds that the fund purchases. In turn, the price of each underlying fund is based on the value of its securities. Before investing in the funds, investors should assess the risks associated with the underlying funds in which the funds may invest and the types of investments made by those underlying funds. These risks include any combination of the risks described below, although a fund’s exposure to a particular risk will be proportionate to the fund’s overall asset allocation and underlying fund allocation.
 
  •  Investment Risk. An investment in an underlying fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. The funds may experience losses with respect to their investment in an underlying fund. Further, there is no guarantee that an underlying fund will be able to achieve its objective.
 
  •  Management Risk. The underlying funds are actively managed mutual funds. Any actively managed mutual fund is subject to the risk that its investment adviser (or sub-advisers) will make poor security selections. An underlying fund’s adviser applies its own investment techniques and risk analyses in making investment decisions for the fund, but there can be no guarantee that they will produce the desired results.
 
  •  Fixed Income Risk. Interest rates rise and fall over time, which will affect an underlying fund’s yield and share price. The credit quality of a portfolio investment could also cause an underlying fund’s share price to fall. An underlying fund could lose money if the issuer or guarantor of a portfolio investment or the counterparty to a derivatives contract fails to make timely principal or interest payments or otherwise honor its obligations. Fixed income securities may be paid off earlier or later than expected. Either situation could cause a fund to hold securities paying lower-than-market rates of interest, which could hurt the fund’s yield or share price. Below investment-grade bonds (junk bonds) involve greater credit risk, are more volatile, involve greater risk of price declines and may be more susceptible to economic downturns than investment-grade securities.
 
  •  Equity Risk. 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. In addition, equity markets tend to move in cycles, which may cause stock prices to fall over short or extended periods of time.
 
  •  Large-, Mid- and Small-Cap Risk. Stocks of different market capitalizations tend to go in and out of favor based on market and economic conditions. Historically, small- and mid-cap stocks tend to be more volatile than large-cap stocks, and small-cap stocks have been riskier than large- and mid-cap stocks. During a period when stocks of a particular market capitalization fall behind other types of investments - bonds or stocks of another capitalization range, for instance -and underlying fund’s large-, mid- or small-cap holdings could reduce performance.
 
  •  Money Market Risk. Although an underlying money market fund seeks to maintain a stable $1 net asset value, it is possible to lose money by investing in a money market fund. In addition, a money market fund is not designed to offer capital appreciation.
 
  •  Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) Risk. When an underlying fund invests in an ETF, it will bear a proportionate share of the ETF’s expenses. In addition, lack of liquidity in an ETF can result in its value being more volatile than the underlying portfolio of securities.
 
  •  Foreign Investment Risk. An underlying fund’s investments in securities of foreign issuers may involve certain risks that are greater than those associated with investments in securities of U.S. issuers. These include risks of adverse changes in foreign economic, political, regulatory and other conditions; changes in currency exchange rates or exchange control regulations (including limitations on currency movements and exchanges); differing accounting, auditing, financial reporting and legal standards and practices; differing securities market structures; and higher transaction costs. These risks may be heightened in connection with investments in emerging markets.
 
  •  Emerging Market Risk. Emerging markets may be more likely to experience political turmoil or rapid changes in market or economic conditions than more developed countries. Such countries often have less uniformity in accounting and reporting requirements and greater risk associated with the custody of securities. In addition, the financial stability of issuers (including governments) in emerging market countries may be more precarious than in other countries. As a result,

Financial Notes (continued)
 
3. Risk Factors (continued):
 
  there will tend to be an increased risk of price volatility associated with an underlying fund’s investments in emerging market countries.
 
  •  Derivatives Risk. An underlying 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 the fund to lose more than the principal amount invested.
 
  •  Leverage Risk. Certain underlying fund transactions, such as derivatives, short sales, reverse repurchase agreements, and mortgage dollar rolls, may give rise to a form of leverage and may expose a fund to greater risk. Leverage tends to magnify the effect of any decrease or increase in the value of an underlying fund’s portfolio securities, which means even a small amount of leverage can have a disproportionately large impact on the fund.
 
  •  Liquidity Risk. A particular investment may be difficult to purchase or sell. An underlying fund may be unable to sell illiquid securities at an advantageous time or price.
 
  •  Portfolio Turnover Risk. Certain of the underlying funds may buy and sell portfolio securities actively. If they do, their portfolio turnover rate and transaction costs will rise, which may lower the underlying fund’s performance and may increase the likelihood of capital gain distributions.
 
Direct Investment Risk. The funds may invest a portion of its assets directly in equity and fixed income securities, ETFs, money market securities, and futures. A fund’s direct investment in these securities is subject to the same or similar risks as an underlying fund’s investment in the same security.
 
Please refer to the funds’ prospectus for a more complete description of the principal risks of investing in the funds.
 
4. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions:
 
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 CSIM and the trust.
 
The Board has adopted a Shareholder Servicing Plan (the “Plan”) on behalf of the funds. The Plan enables each fund to bear expenses relating to the provision by service providers, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (a broker-dealer affiliate of CSIM, “Schwab”), of certain account maintenance, customer liaison and shareholder services to the current shareholders of the funds. The funds are not subject to any fee under the Plan.
 
CSIM and its affiliates have agreed with the funds to limit (“expense limitation”) the total annual fund operating expense charged, excluding interest, taxes and certain non-routine expenses of the funds to 0.00% for so long as CSIM serves as the investment adviser to the funds, which may only be amended or terminated with the approval of the Board.
 
The agreement to limit the funds’ total expenses charged is limited to each fund’s direct operating expenses and, therefore, does not apply to underlying fund fees and expenses, which are indirect expenses incurred by a fund through its investments in the underlying funds.

During the period, the 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 received a payment of $765, $178, $2,967, $184, $3,461, $193 and $2,996, respectively, related to state filing fees resulting from revised fee calculation methodologies being applied on sales of the funds’ shares in prior periods in certain states. These payments are presented in each fund’s Statement of Operations as “State filing fee reimbursement”.
 
All or a portion of the state filing fees were previously borne by CSIM through a reimbursement of fund expenses. As this expense was previously reimbursed, the payments received during the period had the effect of decreasing the total “Expense reduction by CSIM” in the fund’s Statement of Operations. The current net operating expense ratio was not impacted by this payment.
 
5. Transfer Agent Services:
 
Boston Financial Data Services, Inc. provides transfer agent services for the fund.
 
6. Board of Trustees:
 
Trustees may include people who are officers and/or directors of the investment adviser or its affiliates. Federal securities law limits the percentage of such “interested persons” who may serve on a trust’s board, and the trust was in compliance with these limitations throughout the report period. The trust did not pay any of these interested persons for their services as trustees, but it did pay non-interested persons (independent trustees), as noted in each fund’s Statement of Operations.
 
7. Borrowing from Banks:
 
The funds have access to custodian overdraft facilities, a committed line of credit of $150 million with State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”), 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 & Co. 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 for the committed line of credit.
 
There were no borrowings from the lines of credit by the funds during the period. However, the funds may have utilized their overdraft facility and incurred interest expense, which is disclosed in the Statement of Operations, if any. The interest expense is determined based on a negotiated rate above the current Federal Funds Rate.
 
8. Purchases and Sales/Maturities of Investment Securities:
 
For the period ended October 31, 2012, purchases and sales/maturities 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.

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 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.
 
Permanent book and tax basis differences may result in reclassifications between components of net assets as required. The adjustments will have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. As of October 31, 2012, the funds made the following reclassifications:

As of October 31, 2012, 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, 2012, the funds did not incur any interest or penalties.
 
On December 22, 2010, the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (“the Act”) was signed by the President. The Act is the first major piece of legislation affecting Regulated Investment Companies (“RICs”) since 1986 and it modernizes several of the federal income and excise tax provisions related to RICs.
 
Certain of the enacted provisions include:
 
Post-enactment capital losses may now be carried forward indefinitely, but must retain the character of the original loss. However, such losses must be utilized prior to the pre-enactment capital losses, which increases the likelihood that the pre-

enactment capital losses will expire unused. Under pre-enactment law, capital losses could be carried forward for eight years, and carried forward as short-term capital loss, irrespective of the character of the original loss. The Act contains simplification provisions, which are aimed at preventing disqualification of a RIC for “inadvertent” failures of the asset diversification and/or qualifying income tests. Additionally, the Act exempts RICs from the preferential dividend rule, and repeals the 60-day designation requirement for certain types of pay-through income and gains.
 
Finally, the Act contains several provisions aimed at preserving the character of distributions made by a fiscal year RIC during the portion of its taxable year ending after October 31 or December 31, reducing the circumstances under which a RIC might be required to file amended Forms 1099 to restate previously reported distributions.
 
The funds have adopted the noted provisions of the Act for the period ending October 31, 2012.

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 collectively referred to as the “Funds”) at October 31, 2012, 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 and investments in the underlying funds at October 31, 2012 by correspondence with the custodian and transfer agent of the underlying funds, respectively, 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. As part of the renewal process, Independent Trustees’ legal counsel sends an information request letter to CSIM seeking certain relevant information. The responses by CSIM are provided to the Trustees for their review prior to their meeting, and the Trustees are provided with the opportunity to request any additional materials. 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 24, 2012, and June 5, 2012, and approved the renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds for an additional one year term at the meeting held on June 5, 2012. 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, 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 category of other mutual funds and appropriate indices/benchmarks, in light of total return and market trends. As part of this review, the Trustees considered the composition of the peer category, selection criteria and the reputation of the third party who prepared the 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. Schwab Target 2010 Fund had performance that lagged that of a relevant peer group for certain (although not necessarily all) periods considered. Notwithstanding the forgoing, the Board concluded that other factors relevant to performance supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to Schwab Target 2010 Fund. These factors varied from Fund to Fund, but included one or more of the following: (1) that the underperformance was attributable, to a significant extent, to investment decisions by CSIM that were reasonable and consistent with the Fund’s investment objective and policies; (2) that recent performance showed improvement; and (3) that CSIM had taken steps designed to help improve performance. 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 a peer group of 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 CSIM’s contractual commitment to keep each Fund’s 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. 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 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.

In addition, the Schwab Funds retirement policy also requires any independent trustee of the Schwab Funds who also serves as an independent trustee of the Laudus Funds to retire from the Boards of the Schwab Funds upon their required retirement date from either the Boards of Trustees of the Schwab Funds or the Laudus Funds, whichever comes first.
2 Mr. Schwab and Mr. Bettinger are Interested Trustees because they are employees of Schwab. In addition to their employment with Schwab, Messrs. Schwab and Bettinger also own stock of The Charles Schwab Corporation, the parent company of Schwab and the investment adviser.

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.
 
Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index A broad-based benchmark that measures the investment grade, U.S. dollar-denominated, fixed-rate taxable bond market, including Treasuries, government-related and corporate securities, mortgage-back securities (agency fixed-rate and hybrid ARM passthroughs), asset-backed securities, and commercial mortgage-backed securities.
 
Barclays U.S. Aggregate Intermediate Bond Index An index that measures the intermediate-term investment grade, U.S. dollar-denominated, fixed-rate taxable bond market.
 
Barclays U.S. Government/Credit: 1 − 5 Years Index An index that includes investment-grade government and corporate bonds that are denominated in U.S. dollars and have maturities of one to five years. Bonds are represented in the index in proportion to their market value.
 
beta A historical measure of an investment’s volatility relative to a market index (usually the S&P 500®). 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.
 
Citigroup Non-U.S. Dollar World Government Bond Index An index that measures the total rate of return performance for the government bonds of 23 countries, excluding the U.S., with a remaining maturity of at least one year.
 
Dow Jones U.S. Total Stock Market Index An index that measures the performance of all U.S. equity securities with readily available prices.
 
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.
 
gross domestic product (GDP) The output of goods and services produced by labor and property located in the United States.
 
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.
 
MSCI EAFE Index A free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed markets, excluding the U.S. & Canada.
 
MSCI Emerging Markets Index A free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure equity market performance of emerging markets.
 
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.
 
Russell 1000 Index An index that measures the performance of the large-cap segment of the U.S. equity universe.
 
Russell 2000 Index An index that measures the performance of the small-cap segment of the U.S. equity universe.
 
S&P 500 Index A market capitalization index that is designed to measure the performance of 500 leading publicly held companies in leading industries of the U.S. economy.
 
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
 

CHANDOHA PHOTO
 
Marie Chandoha is President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. and the fund covered in this report.

 
Dear Shareholder,
 
As President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc., I’d like to thank you for trusting us to help you meet your investment objectives, and for reading this important report concerning the Schwab Balanced Fund. The fund combines equity and fixed income strategies in U.S. markets, seeking income, diversification, and an opportunity for long-term growth.
 
For the 12 months ended October 31, 2012, the fund generated a positive return, as U.S. stocks solidly outperformed international equities, and as U.S. fixed-income securities outperformed the narrowly positive returns of international fixed-income securities.
 
U.S. equities benefitted from low rates and continued governmental efforts to encourage faster economic growth, while the euro zone’s sovereign debt crisis represented an ongoing challenge, particularly for international equities. With concerns regarding elections in Greece and worries that the debt crisis might spread, international equities endured sharp losses in May. Subsequently, European leaders achieved meaningful progress, and international equities began to recover.
 
Bonds—in the U.S. and internationally—experienced intermittent periods of strength, while economic growth decelerated in many parts of the world. The European Central Bank, Bank of England, Bank of Japan, and U.S. Federal Reserve were among the world’s central banks that maintained low interest-rate policies geared toward improving their region’s or country’s economic prospects.

From the President continued
 

For the 12 months ended October 31, 2012, the fund generated a positive return, as U.S. stocks solidly outperformed international equities, and as U.S. fixed-income securities outperformed the narrowly positive returns of international fixed-income securities.

 
U.S. stocks and bonds outperformed their international counterparts for the report period. In spite of softening U.S. corporate profit growth, the Russell 1000 Index returned 15.0%, compared with the 5.2% return of the MSCI EAFE Index and the 3.0% return of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index in U.S. dollar terms. The Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index returned 5.3%, and in U.S. dollar terms, the Citigroup Non-U.S. Dollar World Government Bond Index returned 1.6%.

Schwab Balanced Fund™
 
 
The Schwab Balanced Fund (the fund) seeks capital growth and income. To pursue its goal, the fund generally invests in a diversified group of other Schwab and/or Laudus Funds, in accordance with its target portfolio allocation. Normally, the fund invests 55% to 65% of its assets in equity securities (including stocks and equity funds) and 35% to 45% in fixed-income securities (including bonds and fixed-income funds), money market funds, and cash or cash equivalents. For more information concerning the fund’s investment objective, strategies, and risks, please see the fund’s prospectus.
 
For the 12-month period ended October 31, 2012, the fund returned 9.36%, while its internally calculated comparative index—the Balanced Blended Index (the index)—returned 11.28%. Unlike the fund’s return, the index’s return does not include operational and transactional costs.
 
Market Highlights. Despite continued slow economic growth both domestically and abroad and ongoing concerns over the European debt crisis, U.S. stock markets posted strong gains over the reporting period. U.S. large-cap stocks outperformed their small-cap counterparts, with the Russell 1000 Index up 14.97%, outperforming the Russell 2000 Index by nearly 3%. Value stocks outperformed growth stocks by nearly 4%. U.S. bonds, as measured by the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, returned 5.25% for the period, while the Barclays U.S. Treasury Index returned 3.66%.
 
Positioning and Strategies. Over the reporting period, the fund’s asset allocations were broadly in line with those of the index.
 
Within the fund’s equity allocation, all three of the fund’s underlying fund positions contributed positively to total return, however, they all underperformed the S&P 500 Index, which returned 15.21%. Relative to the index, the Laudus Growth Investors U.S. Large Cap Growth Fund was the largest detractor, returning 10.11% for the period. The Laudus Small-Cap MarketMasters Fund, Select Shares, which returned 9.8%, and the Schwab Core Equity Fund, which returned 13.99%, also detracted from the fund’s performance relative to the index.
 
In the fixed income arena, the top contributor to the fund’s total return was the Schwab Total Bond Market Fund, which gained 4.94% for the reporting period. The Schwab Premier Income Fund also contributed positively, gaining 3.87%. On a relative basis, however, both funds underperformed the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, which returned 5.25%. As a result, the fund’s fixed income allocation subtracted from the fund’s performance relative to the index. In addition, the fund’s cash allocation detracted from its relative performance, given the meager returns on cash as compared to those of the broader U.S. bond market.

All total returns on this page assume dividends and distributions were reinvested. Index figures do not include trading and management costs, which would lower performance. Indices are unmanaged, and 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 may have been partially absorbed by CSIM and its affiliates. 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. The Morningstar Category return represents all active and index mutual funds within the category as of the report date.
3 The Balanced Blended Index is a custom blended index developed by CSIM composed of 60% S&P 500® Index and 40% Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index. The components that make up the composite index may vary over time.
4 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 0.64%. 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, 2012 and held through October 31, 2012.
 
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 Based on the most recent six-month expense ratio; may differ from the expense ratio provided in the Financial Highlights which covers a 12-month period. The expenses incurred by the underlying funds in which the funds invest are not included in this ratio.
2 Expenses for the fund are equal to its annualized expense ratio, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the 184 days of the period, and divided by the 366 days of the fiscal year.

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 financial note 9) at closing net asset value per share (“NAV”), which is the price for all outstanding shares of the fund. Each share has a par value of 1/1,000 of a cent, and the fund’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”) 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:
 
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the fund uses in its preparation of financial statements. The accounting policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). 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:
 
Under procedures approved by the Board, the investment adviser has formed a Pricing Committee to administer the pricing and valuation of portfolio securities and other assets and to ensure that prices used for internal purposes or provided by third parties reasonably reflect fair market value. Among other things, these procedures allow the fund to utilize independent pricing services, quotations from securities and financial instrument dealers and other market sources to determine fair value.
 
The fund values the securities in its portfolio every business day. The fund uses the following policies to value various types of securities:
 
  •  Underlying funds: valued at their respective net asset values.
 
  •  Securities for which no quoted value is available: The Board has adopted procedures to fair value the fund’s securities when market prices are not “readily available” or are unreliable. For example, a fund may fair value a security when it is

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
 
  de-listed or its trading is halted or suspended; when a security’s primary pricing source is unable or unwilling to provide a price; or when a security’s primary trading market is closed during regular market hours. The fund makes fair value determinations in good faith in accordance with the fund’s valuation procedures. The Pricing Committee considers a number of factors, including unobservable market inputs when arriving at fair value. The Pricing Committee may employ techniques such as the review of related or comparable assets or liabilities, related market activities, recent transactions, market multiples, book values, transactional back-testing, disposition analysis and other relevant information. The Pricing Committee regularly reviews these inputs and assumptions to calibrate the valuations. The Board convenes on a regular basis to review fair value determinations made by the fund pursuant to the procedures.
 
  •  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 measurements) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (Level 3 measurements). 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 three levels of the fair value hierarchy are 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. Investments in underlying funds are valued at their NAV daily and are classified as Level 1 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 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. 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 assumption 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 levels associated with valuing the fund’s investments as of October 31, 2012 are disclosed in the 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 or losses from security transactions are based on the identified costs of the securities involved.

Financial Notes (continued)
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
 
(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 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 underlying funds.
 
(d) Expenses:
 
Expenses that are specific to a 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.
 
(e) Distributions to Shareholders:
 
The fund makes distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, once a year.
 
(f) Custody Credit:
 
The fund has an arrangement with its custodian bank, State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street’), under which the fund receives a credit for its uninvested cash balance 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.
 
(g) Accounting Estimates:
 
The accounting policies described in this report conform to GAAP. Notwithstanding this, shareholders should understand that in order to follow these principles, fund management has to make estimates and assumptions that affect the information reported in the financial statements. It’s possible that once the results are known, they may turn out to be different from these estimates and these differences may be material.
 
(h) 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 a fund meets the tax requirements, it is not required to pay federal income tax.
 
(i) 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.
 
(j) New Accounting Pronouncements:
 
In December 2011, Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-11, “Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities,” was issued and is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after January 1, 2013. The ASU enhances disclosure requirements with respect to an entity’s rights of offset and related arrangements associated with its financial and derivative instruments. Management is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2011-11 may have on the fund’s financial statement disclosures.
 
3. Risk Factors:
 
Investing in the fund may involve certain risks, as discussed in the fund’s prospectus, including, but not limited to, those described below. Any of these risks could cause an investor to lose money.
 
Asset Allocation Risk. The fund is subject to asset allocation risk, which is the risk that the selection of the underlying funds and the allocation of the fund’s assets among the various asset classes and market segments will cause the fund to underperform other funds with a similar investment objective.

Financial Notes (continued)
 
3. Risk Factors (continued):
 
Affiliated Fund Risk. The investment adviser’s authority to select and substitute underlying funds from a variety of affiliated and unaffiliated mutual funds may create a conflict of interest because the fees paid to it by some underlying funds are higher than the fees paid by other underlying funds. However, the portfolio manager is a fiduciary to the fund and is legally obligated to act in the fund’s best interests when selecting underlying funds, without taking fees into consideration.
 
Market Risk. Stock and bond markets rise and fall daily. As with any investment whose performance is tied to these markets, the value of an investment in the fund will fluctuate, which means that an investor could lose money.
 
Underlying Fund Investment Risk. The value of an investment in the fund is based primarily on the prices of the underlying funds that the fund purchases. In turn, the price of each underlying fund is based on the value of its securities. Before investing in the fund, investors should assess the risks associated with the underlying funds in which the fund may invest and the types of investments made by those underlying funds. These risks include any combination of the risks described below, although the fund’s exposure to a particular risk will be proportionate to the fund’s overall asset allocation and underlying fund allocation.
 
  •  Investment Risk. An investment in an underlying fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. The fund may experience losses with respect to its investment in an underlying fund. Further, there is no guarantee that an underlying fund will be able to achieve its objective.
 
  •  Management Risk. The underlying funds are actively managed mutual funds. Any actively managed mutual fund is subject to the risk that its investment adviser (or sub-advisers) will make poor security selections. An underlying fund’s adviser applies its own investment techniques and risk analyses in making investment decisions for the fund, but there can be no guarantee that they will produce the desired results.
 
  •  Equity Risk. 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. In addition, equity markets tend to move in cycles, which may cause stock prices to fall over short or extended periods of time.
 
  •  Large- and Mid-Cap Risk. Both large- and mid-cap stocks tend to go in and out of favor based on market and economic conditions. However, stocks of mid-cap companies tend to be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic events than larger more established companies. During a period when large- and mid-cap U.S. stocks fall behind other types of investments - small-cap stocks, for instance - an underlying fund’s large- and mid-cap holdings could reduce performance.
 
  •  Small-Cap Risk. Historically, small-cap stocks have been riskier than large- and mid-cap stocks, and their prices may move sharply, especially during market upturns and downturns. Small-cap companies 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 and mid-cap stocks, for instance - an underlying fund’s small-cap holdings could reduce performance.
 
  •  Growth Investing Risk. An underlying fund’s investments in growth stocks can be volatile. Growth companies usually invest a high portion of earnings in their businesses and may lack the dividends of value stocks that can cushion stock prices in a falling market. The prices of growth stocks are based largely on projections of the issuer’s future earnings and revenues. If a company’s earnings or revenues fall short of expectations, its stock price may fall dramatically. Growth stocks may also be more expensive relative to their earnings or assets compared to value or other stocks.
 
  •  Fixed Income Risk. Interest rates rise and fall over time, which will affect an underlying fund’s yield and share price. The credit quality of a portfolio investment could also cause an underlying fund’s share price to fall. An underlying fund could lose money if the issuer or guarantor of a portfolio investment or the counterparty to a derivatives contract fails to make timely principal or interest payments or otherwise honor its obligations. Fixed income securities may be paid off earlier or later than expected. Either situation could cause a fund to hold securities paying lower-than-market rates of interest, which could hurt the fund’s yield or share price. Below investment-grade bonds (junk bonds) involve greater credit risk, are more volatile, involve greater risk of price declines and may be more susceptible to economic downturns than investment-grade securities.
 
  •  Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) Risk. When an underlying fund invests in an ETF, it will bear a proportionate share of the ETF’s expenses. In addition, lack of liquidity in an ETF can result in its value being more volatile than the underlying portfolio of securities.

3. Risk Factors (continued):
 
  •  Foreign Investment Risk. An underlying fund’s investments in securities of foreign issuers may involve certain risks that are greater than those associated with investments in securities of U.S. issuers. These include risks of adverse changes in foreign economic, political, regulatory and other conditions; changes in currency exchange rates or exchange control regulations (including limitations on currency movements and exchanges); differing accounting, auditing, financial reporting and legal standards and practices; differing securities market structures; and higher transaction costs. These risks may be heightened in connection with investments in emerging markets.
 
  •  Emerging Market Risk. Emerging markets may be more likely to experience political turmoil or rapid changes in market or economic conditions than more developed countries. Such countries often have less uniformity in accounting and reporting requirements and greater risk associated with the custody of securities. 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.
 
  •  Derivatives Risk. An underlying 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 the fund to lose more than the principal amount invested.
 
  •  Leverage Risk. Certain underlying fund transactions, such as derivatives, short sales, reverse repurchase agreements, and mortgage dollar rolls, may give rise to a form of leverage and may expose a fund to greater risk. Leverage tends to magnify the effect of any decrease or increase in the value of an underlying fund’s portfolio securities, which means even a small amount of leverage can have a disproportionately large impact on the fund.
 
  •  Liquidity Risk. A particular investment may be difficult to purchase or sell. An underlying fund may be unable to sell illiquid securities at an advantageous time or price.
 
  •  Portfolio Turnover Risk. Certain of the underlying funds may buy and sell portfolio securities actively. If they do, their portfolio turnover rate and transaction costs will rise, which may lower the underlying fund’s performance and may increase the likelihood of capital gain distributions.
 
  •  Securities Lending Risk. Certain underlying funds engage in securities lending, which involves the risk of loss of rights in the collateral or delay in recovery of the collateral if the borrower fails to return the security loaned or becomes insolvent.
 
Direct Investment Risk. The fund may invest a portion of its assets directly in equity and fixed income securities, as well as other mutual funds or ETFs, to maintain its asset allocations. The fund’s direct investment in these securities is subject to the same or similar risks as an underlying fund’s investment in the same security.
 
Please refer to the fund’s prospectus for a more complete description of the principal risks of investing in the fund.
 
4. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions:
 
Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (“CSIM” or the “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 CSIM and the trust.
 
The Board has adopted a Shareholder Servicing Plan (the “Plan”) on behalf of the fund. The Plan enables the fund to bear expenses relating to the provision by service providers, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (a broker-dealer affiliate of CSIM, “Schwab”), of certain account maintenance, customer liaison and shareholder services to the current shareholders of the fund. The fund is not subject to any fee under the Plan.
 
CSIM and its affiliates have agreed with the fund to limit (“expense limitation”) the total expenses charged, excluding interest, taxes and certain non-routine expenses of the fund 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 Board.
 
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 underlying fund fees and expenses, which are indirect expenses incurred by a fund through its investments in the underlying funds.

4. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions (continued):
 
The fund may engage in 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/or officers. For the period ended October 31, 2012, the fund had no direct 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, 2012, the percentages of shares of other related funds owned by the Schwab Balanced Fund are:

  Distributions received include distributions from net investment income and capital gains from the underlying funds.
 
Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, the fund may enter into interfund borrowing and lending transactions with 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 by the Board. The fund had no interfund borrowing or lending activity during the period.
 
During the period, the Schwab Balanced Fund received a payment of $617, related to state filing fees resulting from revised fee calculation methodologies being applied on sales of the fund’s shares in prior periods. This payment is presented in the fund’s Statement of Operations as “State filing fee reimbursement”.
 
All or a portion of the state filing fees were previously borne by CSIM through a reimbursement of fund expenses. As this expense was previously reimbursed, the payments received during the period had the effect of decreasing the total “Expense reduction by CSIM” in the fund’s Statement of Operations. The current net operating expense ratio was not impacted by this payment.

5. Transfer Agent Services:
 
Boston Financial Data Services, Inc. provides transfer agent services for the fund.
 
6. Board of Trustees:
 
Trustees may include people who are officers and/or directors of the investment adviser or its affiliates. Federal securities law limits the percentage of such “interested persons” who may serve on a trust’s board, and the trust was in compliance with these limitations throughout the report period. The trust did not pay any of these interested persons for their services as trustees, but it did pay non-interested persons (independent trustees), as noted in the fund’s Statement of Operations.
 
7. Borrowing from Banks:
 
The fund has access to custodian overdraft facilities, a committed line of credit of $150 million with State Street, 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 & Co. The fund pays interest on the amount it borrows at rates that are negotiated periodically. The fund also pays an annual fee to State Street for the committed line of credit.
 
There were no borrowings from the lines of credit by the fund during the period. However, the fund may have utilized its overdraft facility and incurred interest expense, which is disclosed in the Statement of Operations, if any. The interest expense is determined based on a negotiated rate above the current Federal Funds Rate.
 
8. Purchases and Sales/Maturities of Investment Securities:
 
For the period ended October 31, 2012, purchases and sales/maturities of securities (excluding short-term obligations) were as follows:
 
             
Purchases of Securities
 
Sales/Maturities of Securities
 
  $41,410,000       $39,099,000  
 
9. Redemption Fee:
 
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 in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets. The redemption fees charged during the current and prior periods are:
 
             
Current Period

(11/1/11-10/31/12)
 
(11/1/10-10/31/11)
 
  $141,969       $7,174  
 
10. Federal Income Taxes:
 
As of October 31, 2012, the components of distributable earnings on a tax-basis were as follows:
 
         
Undistributed ordinary income
    $1,031,813  
Undistributed long-term capital gains
     
Unrealized appreciation on investments
    9,528,965  
Other unrealized appreciation/(depreciation)
     
         
Net unrealized appreciation/(depreciation)
    $9,528,965  
         
 
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 carryforwards may be used to offset future realized capital gains for federal income tax purposes. As of October 31, 2012, the fund had capital loss carryforwards $4,073,757 available to offset future net capital gains before October 31, 2017.
 
For the year ended October 31, 2012, the fund had capital losses utilized as follows:

10. Federal Income Taxes (continued):
 
The tax-basis components of distributions paid during the current and prior fiscal years were as follows:
 
         
Current period distributions
Ordinary income
    $1,421,426  
Long-term capital gains
     
Return of capital
     
 
Prior period distributions
Ordinary income
    $1,483,071  
Long-term capital gains
     
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 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 fund may also designate a portion of the amount paid to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for tax purposes.
 
Permanent book and tax basis differences may result in reclassifications between components of net assets as required. The adjustments will have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. As of October 31, 2012, the fund made the following reclassifications:
 
         
Capital shares
    $—  
Undistributed net investment income
    40,486  
Net realized capital gains/(losses)
    (40,486 )
 
As of October 31, 2012, 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, 2012, the fund did not incur any interest or penalties.
 
On December 22, 2010, the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (“the Act”) was signed by the President. The Act is the first major piece of legislation affecting Regulated Investment Companies (“RICs”) since 1986 and it modernizes several of the federal income and excise tax provisions related to RICs.
 
Certain of the enacted provisions include:
 
Post-enactment capital losses may now be carried forward indefinitely, but must retain the character of the original loss. However, such losses must be utilized prior to the pre-enactment capital losses, which increases the likelihood that the pre-enactment capital losses will expire unused. Under pre-enactment law, capital losses could be carried forward for eight years, and carried forward as short-term capital loss, irrespective of the character of the original loss. The Act contains simplification provisions, which are aimed at preventing disqualification of a RIC for “inadvertent” failures of the asset diversification and/or qualifying income tests. Additionally, the Act exempts RICs from the preferential dividend rule, and repeals the 60-day designation requirement for certain types of pay-through income and gains.
 
Finally, the Act contains several provisions aimed at preserving the character of distributions made by a fiscal year RIC during the portion of its taxable year ending after October 31 or December 31, reducing the circumstances under which a RIC might be required to file amended Forms 1099 to restate previously reported distributions.
 
The fund has adopted the noted provisions of the Act for the period ending October 31, 2012.

Management has determined there are no subsequent events or transactions through the date the financial statements were issued 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, 2012, 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 audit 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 and investments in the underlying funds at October 31, 2012 by correspondence with the custodian and transfer agent of the underlying funds, respectively, 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 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. As part of the renewal process, Independent Trustees’ legal counsel sends an information request letter to CSIM seeking certain relevant information. The responses by CSIM are provided to the Trustees for their review prior to their meeting, and the Trustees are provided with the opportunity to request any additional materials. 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 24, 2012, and June 5, 2012, and approved the renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Fund for an additional one year term at the meeting held on June 5, 2012. 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, 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 category of other mutual funds and appropriate indices/ benchmarks, in light of total return and market trends. As part of this review, the Trustees considered the composition of the peer category, selection criteria and the reputation of the third party who prepared the 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. The Fund had performance that lagged that of a relevant peer group for certain (although not necessarily all) periods considered. Notwithstanding the forgoing, the Board concluded that other factors relevant to performance supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Fund. These factors included the following: (1) that the underperformance was attributable, to a significant extent, to investment decisions by CSIM that were reasonable and consistent with the Fund’s investment objective and policies; (2) that recent performance showed improvement; and (3) that CSIM had taken steps designed to help improve performance. 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 a peer group of 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 CSIM’s contractual commitment to keep the Fund’s expense cap for so long as CSIM serves as the adviser to the Fund. The Trustees also considered fees charged by CSIM to other mutual funds. 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 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 twenty years as a trustee, whichever comes first. In addition, the Schwab Funds retirement policy also requires any independent trustee of the Schwab Funds who also serves as an independent trustee of the Laudus Funds to retire from the Boards of the Schwab Funds upon their required retirement date from either the Boards of Trustees of the Schwab Funds or the Laudus Funds, whichever comes first.
2 Mr. Schwab and Mr. Bettinger are Interested Trustees because they are employees of Schwab. In addition to their employment with Schwab, Messrs. Schwab and Bettinger also own stock of The Charles Schwab Corporation, the parent company of Schwab and the investment adviser.

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.
 
Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index A broad-based benchmark that measures the investment grade, U.S. dollar-denominated, fixed-rate taxable bond market, including Treasuries, government-related and corporate securities, mortgage-back securities (agency fixed-rate and hybrid ARM passthroughs), asset-backed securities, and commercial mortgage-backed securities.
 
beta A historical measure of an investment’s volatility relative to a market index (usually the S&P 500®). 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.

CHANDOHA PHOTO
 
Marie Chandoha is President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. and the funds covered in this report.

 
Dear Shareholder,
 
As President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc., I’d like to thank you for trusting us to help you meet your investment objectives, and for reading this important report concerning the Schwab MarketTrack Portfolios. The Schwab MarketTrack Portfolios combine a variety of passive strategies in U.S. and international markets, seeking to provide diversification, while targeting varying degrees of risk.
 
For the 12 months ended October 31, 2012, the portfolios generated positive returns, as U.S. stocks solidly outperformed international equities, and as U.S. fixed-income securities outperformed the narrowly positive returns of international fixed-income securities.
 
U.S. equities benefitted from low rates and continued governmental efforts to encourage faster economic growth, while the euro zone’s sovereign debt crisis represented an ongoing challenge, particularly for international equities. With concerns regarding elections in Greece and worries that the debt crisis might spread, international equities endured sharp losses in May. Subsequently, European leaders achieved meaningful progress, and international equities began to recover.
 
Bonds—in the U.S. and internationally—experienced intermittent periods of strength, while economic growth decelerated in many parts of the world. The European Central Bank, Bank of England, Bank of Japan, and U.S. Federal Reserve were among the world’s central banks that maintained low interest-rate policies geared toward improving their region’s or country’s economic prospects.

From the President continued
 

For the 12 months ended October 31, 2012, the portfolios generated positive returns, as U.S. stocks solidly outperformed international equities, and as U.S. fixed-income securities outperformed the narrowly positive returns of international fixed-income securities.

 
U.S. stocks and bonds outperformed their international counterparts for the report period. In spite of softening U.S. corporate profit growth, the Russell 1000 Index returned 15.0%, compared with the 5.2% return of the MSCI EAFE Index and the 3.0% return of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index in U.S. dollar terms. The Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index returned 5.3%, and in U.S. dollar terms, the Citigroup Non-U.S. Dollar World Government Bond Index returned 1.6%.
 
Thank you for investing in the Schwab MarketTrack Portfolios. We encourage you to review your investment portfolio regularly to ensure that it meets your current financial plan.

Schwab MarketTrack All Equity Portfolio™
 
 
The Schwab MarketTrack All Equity Portfolio (the portfolio) seeks high capital growth through an all-stock portfolio. To pursue its goal, the portfolio maintains a defined asset allocation. The portfolio’s target allocation is 100% in stock investments, with certain percentages for different segments of the stock market. The portfolio seeks to remain close to the target allocations of 45% in U.S. large-cap, 30% in international, and 25% in U.S. small-cap stocks, and typically does not change its target allocation. The portfolio invests mainly in other Schwab Funds including index funds, which seek to track the total returns of various market indices. For more information concerning the portfolio’s investment objective, strategies, and risks, please see the portfolio’s prospectus.
 
For the 12-month period ended October 31, 2012, the portfolio returned 11.02%; its internally calculated comparative index, the All Equity Composite Index (the composite index), returned 11.71%. Unlike the portfolio’s return, the composite index’s return does not include operational and transactional costs.
 
Market Highlights. Despite continued slow economic growth both domestically and abroad and ongoing concerns over the European debt crisis, world stock markets posted positive gains over the reporting period. U.S. markets significantly outperformed international markets, with the S&P 500 Index up 15.21% for the reporting period versus the MSCI EAFE Index’s gain of 5.15%. Emerging markets were weaker, with the MSCI Emerging Markets Index up just 2.98%. International markets showed little differentiation between growth and value, with the MSCI EAFE Value Index eclipsing its Growth counterpart by less than 10 basis points. In the U.S., large-cap stocks outperformed small-caps by nearly 3%, with value outperforming growth by nearly 4%.
 
Positioning and Strategies. Over the reporting period, the portfolio’s asset allocations were broadly in line with those of the composite index.
 
The portfolio’s U.S. equity exposures provided the greatest contribution to the portfolio’s total return for the period. The largest contribution came from the portfolio’s position in the Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund, which gained 15.09% for the period; it also represented the portfolio’s largest position. The portfolio’s next-largest contributor was the Schwab Small-Cap Index Fund, which returned 11.87%. On a relative basis, the Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund outperformed the composite index’s U.S. equity allocation component, the Dow Jones U.S. Total Stock Market Index, which returned 14.73% for the reporting period. However, the Schwab Small-Cap Index Fund underperformed that same benchmark, contributing to the portfolio’s underperformance relative to the composite index.
 
The portfolio’s international equity exposure also added both absolute and relative value. The portfolio’s position in the Schwab International Index Fund gained 6.07% for the period, comfortably outpacing the composite index’s international equity allocation component, the MSCI EAFE Index (Net), which returned 4.61%.

The largest contribution came from the portfolio’s position in the Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund, which gained 15.09% for the period; it also represented the portfolio’s largest position. The portfolio’s next-largest contributor was the Schwab Small-Cap Index Fund, which returned 11.87%. On a relative basis, the Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund outperformed the composite index’s U.S. equity component, the Dow Jones U.S. Total Stock Market Index, which returned 14.73% for the reporting period. The Schwab Small-Cap Index Fund, however, underperformed that same benchmark, contributing to the portfolio’s underperformance relative to the composite index.
 
The portfolio’s international equity exposure also added both absolute and relative value. The portfolio’s position in the Schwab International Index Fund gained 6.07% for the period, comfortably outpacing the composite index’s international equity allocation component, the MSCI EAFE Index (Net), which returned 4.61%.
 
The fixed-income allocation also generated positive returns that boosted the portfolio’s total return. The Schwab Total Bond Market Fund gained 4.94% for the reporting period; however, it slightly underperformed the composite index’s U.S. fixed-income allocation component, the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, which was up 5.25%. As a result, the allocation slightly detracted from the portfolio’s relative performance.

Schwab MarketTrack Balanced Portfolio™
 
 
The Schwab MarketTrack Balanced Portfolio (the portfolio) seeks both capital growth and income. To pursue its goal, the portfolio maintains a defined asset allocation. The portfolio’s target allocation includes bond, stock, and cash investments. The portfolio seeks to remain close to the target allocations of 60% stocks, 35% bonds, and 5% cash, and typically does not change its target allocation. The portfolio invests mainly in other Schwab Funds including index funds, which seek to track the total returns of various market indices. For more information concerning the portfolio’s investment objective, strategies, and risks, please see the portfolio’s prospectus.
 
For the 12-month period ended October 31, 2012, the portfolio returned 8.61%; its internally calculated comparative index, the Balanced Composite Index (the composite index), returned 9.31%. Unlike the return of the portfolio, the return of the composite index does not include operational and transactional costs.
 
Market Highlights. Despite continued slow economic growth both domestically and abroad and ongoing concerns over the European debt crisis, world stock markets posted positive gains over the reporting period. U.S. markets significantly outperformed international markets, with the S&P 500 Index up 15.21% for the reporting period versus the MSCI EAFE Index’s gain of 5.15%. Emerging markets were weaker, with the MSCI Emerging Markets Index up just 2.98%. International markets showed little differentiation between growth and value, with the MSCI EAFE Value Index eclipsing its Growth counterpart by less than 10 basis points. In the U.S., large-cap stocks outperformed small-caps by nearly 3%, with value outperforming growth by nearly 4%. U.S. bonds, as measured by the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, returned 5.25% for the period, while the Barclays U.S. Treasury Index returned 3.66%.

Table of Contents

 
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, 2012 and held through October 31, 2012.
 
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 as of the end of the period, including the funds discussed in this report, which are highlighted:

The Schwab MarketTrack Portfolios are primarily “fund of funds”. Each of the funds seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing mainly in a combination of other Schwab Funds (underlying funds) in accordance with its target portfolio allocation. The funds may also invest directly in equity or fixed income securities, cash equivalents and futures to achieve their investment objectives. Each fund bears its share of the allocable expenses of the underlying funds in which they invest.
 
Schwab MarketTrack Growth Portfolio offers two share classes: Investor Shares and P Shares (see note 11 for additional information regarding P Share class termination). Shares of each class represent an interest in the same fund, but each class has different expenses and investment minimums. Schwab MarketTrack All Equity Portfolio, Schwab MarketTrack Balanced Portfolio and Schwab MarketTrack Conservative Portfolio, each offer one share class.
 
Shares are bought and sold (subject to a redemption fee, see financial note 9) at closing net asset value per share (“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 funds’ Board of Trustees (the “Board”) 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:
 
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the funds use in their preparation of financial statements. The accounting policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). 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:
 
Under procedures approved by the Board, the investment adviser has formed a Pricing Committee to administer the pricing and valuation of portfolio securities and other assets and to ensure that prices used for internal purposes or provided by third parties reasonably reflect fair market value. Among other things, these procedures allow the funds to utilize independent pricing services, quotations from securities and financial instrument dealers and other market sources to determine fair value.

Financial Notes (continued)
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
 
The funds value the securities in their portfolios every business day. The funds use the following policies to value various types of securities:
 
  •  Securities for which no quoted value is available: The Board has adopted procedures to fair value each fund’s securities when market prices are not “readily available” or are unreliable. For example, a fund may fair value a security when it is de-listed or its trading is halted or suspended; when a security’s primary pricing source is unable or unwilling to provide a price; or when a security’s primary trading market is closed during regular market hours. Each fund makes fair value determinations in good faith in accordance with the fund’s valuation procedures. The Pricing Committee considers a number of factors, including unobservable market inputs when arriving at fair value. The Pricing Committee may employ techniques such as the review of related or comparable assets or liabilities, related market activities, recent transactions, market multiples, book values, transactional back-testing, disposition analysis and other relevant information. The Pricing Committee regularly reviews these inputs and assumptions to calibrate the valuations. The Board convenes on a regular basis to review fair value determinations made by the funds pursuant to the procedures.
 
  •  Underlying funds: valued at their respective net asset values.
 
  •  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 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 measurements) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (Level 3 measurements). If the funds determine that either the volume and/or level of activity for an asset or liability has significantly decreased (from normal conditions for that asset or liability) or price quotations or observable inputs are not associated with orderly transactions, increased analysis and management judgment will be required to estimate fair value.
 
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
 
  •  Level 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. Investments in underlying funds are valued at their NAV daily and are classified as Level 1 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 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. 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 levels associated with valuing the funds’ investments as of October 31, 2012 are disclosed in the Portfolio Holdings.

Financial Notes (continued)
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
 
(b) Security Transactions:
 
Security transactions are recorded as of the date the order to buy or sell the security is executed. Realized gains or losses from security transactions are based on the identified costs of the securities involved.
 
(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 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.
 
For funds offering multiple share classes, the net investment income, other than class specific expenses, and the realized and unrealized gains or losses, are allocated daily to each class 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, if any, once a year, except for the Schwab MarketTrack Conservative Portfolio, which makes distributions from net investment income quarterly.
 
(f) Accounting Estimates:
 
The accounting policies described in this report conform to GAAP. Notwithstanding this, shareholders should understand that in order to follow these principles, fund management has to make estimates and assumptions that affect the information reported in the financial statements. It’s possible that once the results are known, they may turn out to be different from these estimates and these differences may be material.
 
(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 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.
 
(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.
 
(i) New Accounting Pronouncements:
 
In December 2011, Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-11, “Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities,” was issued and is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after January 1, 2013. The ASU enhances disclosure requirements with respect to an entity’s rights of offset and related arrangements associated with its financial and derivative instruments. Management is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2011-11 may have on the funds’ financial statement disclosures.
 
3. Risk Factors:
 
Investing in the funds may involve certain risks, as discussed in the funds’ prospectus, including, but not limited to, those described below. Any of these risks could cause an investor to lose money.

Financial Notes (continued)
 
3. Risk Factors (continued):
 
Asset Allocation Risk. The funds are subject to asset allocation risk, which is the risk that the selection of the underlying funds and the allocation of a fund’s assets among the various asset classes and market segments will cause the funds to underperform other funds with a similar investment objective.
 
Affiliated Fund Risk. The investment adviser’s authority to select and substitute underlying funds from a variety of affiliated and unaffiliated mutual funds may create a conflict of interest because the fees paid to it by some underlying funds are higher than the fees paid by other underlying funds. However, the portfolio manager is a fiduciary to the portfolio and is legally obligated to act in the portfolio’s best interests when selecting underlying funds, without taking fees into consideration.
 
Market Risk. Stock and bond markets rise and fall daily. As with any investment whose performance is tied to these markets, the value of an investment in the funds will fluctuate, which means that an investor could lose money.
 
Underlying Fund Investment Risk. The value of your investment in the funds is based primarily on the prices of the underlying funds that the fund purchases. In turn, the price of each underlying fund is based on the value of its securities. Before investing in the funds, investors should assess the risks associated with the underlying funds in which the funds may invest and the types of investments made by those underlying funds. These risks include any combination of the risks described below, although a fund’s exposure to a particular risk will be proportionate to the fund’s overall asset allocation and underlying fund allocation.
 
  •  Investment Risk. An investment in an underlying fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. The funds may experience losses with respect to their investment in an underlying fund. Further, there is no guarantee that an underlying fund will be able to achieve its objective.
 
  •  Investment Style Risk. The underlying funds seek to track the performance of various segments of the stock market, as measured by their respective indices. Each underlying fund follows these stocks during upturns as well as downturns. Because of their indexing strategy, the underlying funds do not take steps to reduce market exposure or to lessen the effects of a declining market. In addition, because of an underlying fund’s expenses, the underlying fund’s performance is normally below that of the index.
 
  •  Equity Risk. 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. In addition, equity markets tend to move in cycles, which may cause stock prices to fall over short or extended periods of time.
 
  •  Tracking Error Risk. Certain underlying 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.
 
  •  Large-Cap Risk. Many of the risks of the underlying funds are associated with their investment in the large-cap segments of the stock market. Large-cap stocks tend to go in and out of favor based on market and economic conditions. During a period when large-cap stocks fall behind other types of investments - bonds or mid- or small- cap stocks, for instance - an underlying fund’s large-cap holdings could reduce performance.
 
  •  Small-Cap Risk. Historically, small-cap stocks have been riskier than large- and mid-cap stocks, and their prices may move sharply, especially during market upturns and downturns. Small-cap companies 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 and mid-cap stocks, for instance - an underlying fund’s small-cap holdings could reduce performance.
 
  •  Foreign Investment Risk. An underlying fund’s investments in securities of foreign issuers may involve certain risks that are greater than those associated with investments in securities of U.S. issuers. These include risks of adverse changes in foreign economic, political, regulatory and other conditions; changes in currency exchange rates or exchange control regulations (including limitations on currency movements and exchanges); differing accounting, auditing, financial reporting and legal standards and practices; differing securities market structures; and higher transaction costs. These risks may be heightened in connection with investments in emerging markets.
 
  •  Currency Risk. As a result of an underlying fund’s investments in securities denominated in, and/or receiving revenues in foreign currencies, the fund will be subject to currency risk. This is the risk that those currencies will decline in value

3. Risk Factors (continued):
 
  relative to the U.S. dollar, or, in the case of hedging positions, that the U.S. dollar will decline in value relative to the currency hedged. In either event, the dollar value of an investment in a fund would be adversely affected.
 
  •  Derivatives Risk. An underlying 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 the fund to lose more than the principal amount invested.
 
  •  Debt Securities Risk. Bond prices generally fall when interest rates rise. Bonds with longer maturities tend to be more sensitive to this risk. Underlying fund performance also could be affected if an issuer or guarantor of a bond held by a fund fails to make timely principal or interest payments or otherwise honor its obligations. Lower-quality bonds are considered speculative with respect to their issuer’s ability to make timely payments or otherwise honor their 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.
 
  •  Liquidity Risk. A particular investment may be difficult to purchase or sell. An underlying fund may be unable to sell illiquid securities at an advantageous time or price.
 
  •  Securities Lending Risk. An underlying fund may lend its portfolio securities to brokers, dealers and other financial institutions. Securities lending involves the risk of loss of rights in the collateral or delay in recovery of the collateral if the borrower fails to return the security loaned or becomes insolvent.
 
Direct Investment Risk. A fund may invest directly in individual securities to maintain its allocations. A fund’s direct investment in these securities is subject to the same or similar risks as an underlying fund’s investment in the same security.
 
Please refer to the funds’ prospectus for a more complete description of the principal risks of investing in the funds.
 
4. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions:
 
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 CSIM and the trust.
 
For its advisory and administrative services to each fund, CSIM is entitled to receive an annual fee of 0.23% payable monthly based on each fund’s average daily net assets.
 
The Board has adopted a Shareholder Servicing Plan (the “Plan”) on behalf of the funds. The Plan enables each fund to bear expenses relating to the provision by service providers, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (a broker-dealer affiliate of CSIM, “Schwab”), of certain account maintenance, customer liaison and shareholder services to the current shareholders of the funds. Schwab serves as the funds’ paying agent under the Plan for making payments of the shareholder service fee due to the service providers (other than Schwab) under the Plan. All shareholder service fees paid by the funds to Schwab in its capacity as the funds’ paying agent will be passed through to the service providers, and Schwab will not retain any portion of such fees.
 
Pursuant to the Plan, each fund’s shares are subject to an annual shareholder servicing fee up to 0.25% except for the Schwab MarketTrack Growth Portfolio’s P Shares, which is subject to such annual fee up to 0.10%. The shareholder servicing fee paid to a particular service provider is made pursuant to its written agreement with Schwab (or, in the case of payments made to Schwab, pursuant to Schwab’s written agreement with the funds). Payments under the Plan are made as described above regardless of Schwab’s or the service provider’s actual cost of providing the services. If the cost of providing the services under the Plan is less than the payments received, the unexpended portion of the fees may be retained as profit by Schwab or the service provider.
 
Although these agreements specify certain fees for these services, CSIM and its affiliates have made an additional agreement (“expense limitation”) with the funds, for so long as CSIM serves as the investment adviser to the funds, which may only be

4. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions (continued):
 
The funds may engage in 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/or officers. For the period ended October 31, 2012, the funds had no direct 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 with 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 by the Board. The funds had no interfund borrowing or lending activity during the period.
 
During the period, the Schwab MarketTrack All Equity Portfolio received a payment of $7,153, related to state filing fees resulting from revised fee calculation methodologies being applied on sales of the fund’s shares in prior periods. This payment is presented in the fund’s Statement of Operations as “State filing fee reimbursement”.
 
All or a portion of the state filing fees were previously borne by CSIM through a waiver of CSIM’s management fee. As this expense was previously waived, the payment received during the period had the effect of decreasing the total “Expense reduction by CSIM and its affiliates” in the fund’s Statement of Operations. The current net operating expense ratio was not impacted by this payment.
 
5. Transfer Agent Services:
 
Boston Financial Data Services, Inc. provides transfer agent services for each fund.
 
6. Board of Trustees:
 
Trustees may include people who are officers and/or directors of the investment adviser or its affiliates. Federal securities law limits the percentage of such “interested persons” who may serve on a trust’s board, and the trust was in compliance with these limitations throughout the report period. The trust did not pay any of these interested persons for their services as trustees, but it did pay non-interested persons (independent trustees), as noted in each fund’s Statement of Operations.
 
7. Borrowing from Banks:
 
The funds have access to custodian overdraft facilities, a committed line of credit of $150 million with State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”), 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 & Co. 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 for the committed line of credit.
 
There were no borrowings from the lines of credit by the funds during the period. However, the funds may have utilized their overdraft facility and incurred interest expense, which is disclosed in the Statement of Operations, if any. The interest expense is determined based on a negotiated rate above the current Federal Funds Rate.
 
8. Purchases and Sales/Maturities of Investment Securities:
 
For the period ended October 31, 2012, purchases and sales/maturities of securities (excluding short-term obligations) were as follows:

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.
 
Permanent book and tax basis differences may result in reclassifications between components of net assets as required. The adjustments will have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. As of October 31, 2012, the funds made the following reclassifications:

As of October 31, 2012, 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, 2012, the funds did not incur any interest or penalties.
 
On December 22, 2010, the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (“the Act”) was signed by the President. The Act is the first major piece of legislation affecting Regulated Investment Companies (“RICs”) since 1986 and it modernizes several of the federal income and excise tax provisions related to RICs.
 
Certain of the enacted provisions include:
 
Post-enactment capital losses may now be carried forward indefinitely, but must retain the character of the original loss. However, such losses must be utilized prior to the pre-enactment capital losses, which increases the likelihood that the pre-enactment capital losses will expire unused. Under pre-enactment law, capital losses could be carried forward for eight years, and carried forward as short-term capital loss, irrespective of the character of the original loss. The Act contains simplification provisions, which are aimed at preventing disqualification of a RIC for “inadvertent” failures of the asset diversification and/or qualifying income tests. Additionally, the Act exempts RICs from the preferential dividend rule, and repeals the 60-day designation requirement for certain types of pay-through income and gains.

Finally, the Act contains several provisions aimed at preserving the character of distributions made by a fiscal year RIC during the portion of its taxable year ending after October 31 or December 31, reducing the circumstances under which a RIC might be required to file amended Forms 1099 to restate previously reported distributions.
 
The funds have adopted the noted provisions of the Act for the period ending October 31, 2012.
 
11. Subsequent Events:
 
Based upon its evaluation of the profile of the current and prospective investors of the MarketTrack Growth Portfolio, CSIM recommended to the Board that the fund terminate its P Share Class. At a Board meeting held on December 4, 2012, the Board approved the termination of MarketTrack Growth Portfolio’s P Shares. Effective December 6, 2012, the P Share class was terminated.

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, 2012, 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 and investments in the underlying funds at October 31, 2012 by correspondence with the custodian and transfer agent of the underlying funds, respectively, 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. As part of the renewal process, Independent Trustees’ legal counsel sends an information request letter to CSIM seeking certain relevant information. The responses by CSIM are provided to the Trustees for their review prior to their meeting, and the Trustees are provided with the opportunity to request any additional materials. 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 24, 2012, and June 5, 2012, and approved the renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds for an additional one year term at the meeting held on June 5, 2012. 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, 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 category of other mutual funds and appropriate indices/benchmarks, in light of total return and market trends. As part of this review, the Trustees considered the composition of the peer category, selection criteria and the reputation of the third party who prepared the 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. The Funds had performance that lagged that of a relevant peer group for certain (although not necessarily all) periods considered. Notwithstanding the forgoing, the Board concluded that other factors relevant to performance supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds. These factors varied from Fund to Fund, but included one or more of the following: (1) that the underperformance was attributable, to a significant extent, to investment decisions by CSIM that were reasonable and consistent with the Fund’s investment objective and policies; (2) that recent performance showed improvement; and (3) that CSIM had taken steps designed to help improve performance. 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 a peer group of 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 CSIM’s contractual commitment to keep each Fund’s 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. 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 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 the Funds that, in each case, 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.
 
Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index A broad-based benchmark that measures the investment grade, U.S. dollar-denominated, fixed-rate taxable bond market, including Treasuries, government-related and corporate securities, mortgage-back securities (agency fixed-rate and hybrid ARM passthroughs), asset-backed securities, and commercial mortgage-backed securities.
 
beta A historical measure of an investment’s volatility relative to a market index (usually the S&P 500®). 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.
 
Citigroup Non-U.S. Dollar World Government Bond Index An index that measures the total rate of return performance for the government bonds of 23 countries, excluding the U.S., with a remaining maturity of at least one year.
 
Dow Jones U.S. Total Stock Market Index An index that measures the performance of all U.S. equity securities with readily available prices.
 
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.
 
gross domestic product (GDP) The output of goods and services produced by labor and property located in the United States.
 
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.
 
MSCI EAFE Index A free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed markets, excluding the U.S. & Canada.
 
MSCI Emerging Markets Index A free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure equity market performance of emerging markets.
 
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.
 
Russell 1000 Index An index that measures the performance of the large-cap segment of the U.S. equity universe.
 
Russell 2000 Index An index that measures the performance of the small-cap segment of the U.S. equity universe.
 
S&P 500 Index A market capitalization index that is designed to measure the performance of 500 leading publicly held companies in leading industries of the U.S. economy.
 
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.
