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

INTRODUCTION

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

Significant business subsidiaries of CSC include the following:

Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (CS&Co), a securities broker-dealer;
Charles Schwab Bank (CSB), a federal savings bank; and
Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (CSIM), the investment advisor for Schwab’s proprietary mutual funds (Schwab Funds®) and for Schwab’s exchange-traded funds (Schwab ETFs™).

Unless otherwise indicated, the terms “Schwab,” “the Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our” mean CSC together with its consolidated subsidiaries.

Schwab provides financial services to individuals and institutional clients through two segments – Investor Services and Advisor Services. The Investor Services segment provides retail brokerage and banking services to individual investors, and retirement plan services, as well as other corporate brokerage services, to businesses and their employees. The Advisor Services segment provides custodial, trading, banking, and support services, as well as retirement business services, to independent registered investment advisors (RIAs), independent retirement advisors, and recordkeepers.
Schwab was founded on the belief that all Americans deserve access to a better investing experience. Although much has changed in the intervening years, our purpose remains clear – to champion every client’s goals with passion and integrity. Guided by this purpose and the aspirationour vision of creating the most trusted leader in investment services, management has adopted a strategy described as “Through Clients’ Eyes.”

Under this approach, our strategic goals are focused on puttingThis strategy emphasizes placing clients’ perspectives, needs, and desires at the forefront. Because investing plays a fundamental role in building financial security, we strive to deliver a better investing experience for our clients – individual investors and the people and institutions who serve them – by disrupting longstanding industry practices on their behalf and providing superior service. We also aim to offer a broad range of products and solutions to meet client needs with a focus on transparency, value, and value.trust. In addition, management works to couple Schwab’s scale and resources with ongoing expense discipline to keep costs low and ensure that products and solutions are affordable as well as responsive to client needs. Finally, we seekIn combination, these are the key elements of our “no trade-offs” approach to serving investors. We believe that following this strategy is the best way to maximize our market valuation and stockholder returns over time.

Management estimates that investable wealth in the United States (U.S.) (consisting of assets in defined contribution, retail wealth management and brokerage, and registered investment advisor channels, along with bank deposits) currently exceeds $30$45 trillion, which means the Company’s $3.31$3.59 trillion in client assets leaves substantial opportunity for growth. Our strategy is based on the principle that developing trusted relationships will translate into more assets from both new and existing clients, ultimately driving more revenue, and along with expense discipline and thoughtful capital management, will generate earnings growth and build long-term stockholder value.

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 (20172018 (2018 Form 10-K).

On our website, https://www.aboutschwab.com, we post the following filings after they are electronically filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC): annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, proxy statements, and any amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In addition, the website also includes the Dodd-Frank stress test results, our regulatory capital disclosures based on Basel III, and our quarterly average liquidity coverage ratio. The SEC maintains a website at https://www.sec.gov that contains reports, proxy statements, and other information that we file electronically with the SEC.

During the first quarter of 2019, we continued to emphasize effective balance sheet management, transferring $11.6 billion from sweep money market funds to bank and broker-dealer sweep. In April 2019, we completed all remaining planned transfers. In January 2019, we announced a 31% increase in our dividend to $0.17 per common share, and a $4 billion stock repurchase authorization, which we expect to access in coming quarters to return excess capital to stockholders. We finished the first quarter of 2019 with a Tier 1 Leverage Ratio of 7.2%, and we achieved a 20% return on equity for the third consecutive quarter.

InAverage interest earning assets were 15% higher during the first quarter of 2018, average interest earning assets grew 10%2019 compared to the same period in 2017.2018. This increase was driven byprimarily reflects higher bank deposits due to transfers from netsweep money market funds to bank sweep, and changes in client flows and bulk transfers, as well as higher short-term borrowings.cash allocations, partially offset by client purchases of investment products.

DART volumes increased 46%decreased 10% in the first quarter of 20182019 compared to the prior year.same period in 2018, while daily average revenue per revenue trade remained relatively consistent. This led to an increasea decrease in trading revenue of 5%, as the volume growth more than offset Schwab’s commission pricing reductions implemented in the first quarter of 2017. At that time, Schwab announced two trading price reductions which lowered standard equity, ETF, and option trade commissions from $8.95 to $4.95 and lowered the per contract option fee from $.75 to $.65.$16 million, or 8%.

Other Revenue

Other revenue includes order flow revenue, other service fees, software fees from our portfolio management solutions, exchange processing fees, and non-recurring gains. Other revenue increased $19 million, or 23%, in the first quarter of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018 primarily due to a gain from the assignment of leased office space. Order flow revenue was $38$32 million and $27$38 million during the first quarters of 2019 and 2018, and 2017, respectively. This decrease was primarily due to lower volume of trades.

Other expenses increased in the first quarter of 2018 compared to the same period in 2017, primarily due to a $15 million charge associated with unsecured client margin losses in volatility-related products and other miscellaneous expense growth related to the growing client asset base.

Capital expenditures were $135 million and $67 million in the first quarters of 2018 and 2017, respectively. The increase in capital expenditures from the prior year was due to our office campus expansion in the U.S. and investments in technology projects. As we continue to pursue our geographic strategy, we anticipate increasing capital expenditures for full-year 2018 from our typical range of 3-5% of total net revenues to approximately 6-7%.

Taxes on Income

Taxes on income were $219$300 million and $279$219 million for the first quarters of 20182019 and 2017,2018, respectively, resulting in effective income tax rates on income before taxes of 21.9%23.7% and 33.1%21.9%, respectively.

RISK MANAGEMENT

Schwab’s business activities expose us to a variety of risks, including operational, credit, market, liquidity, and compliance risk.risks. The Company has a comprehensive risk management program to identify and manage these risks and their associated potential for financial and reputational impact. For a discussion of our risk management programs, see Item 7 – Risk Management in the 20172018 Form 10-K.

Net Interest Revenue Simulation

Schwab’s investment strategy is structured to produce an increase in net interest revenue when interest rates rise and, conversely, a decrease in net interest revenue when interest rates fall. For Schwab’sour net interest revenue sensitivity analysis, we use net interest revenue simulation modeling techniques to evaluate and manage the effect of changing interest rates. The simulation includes all interest-sensitive assets and liabilities. Key variables in the simulation include the repricing of financial instruments, prepayment, reinvestment, and product pricing assumptions. The simulations involve assumptions that are inherently uncertain and, as a result, cannot precisely estimate net interest revenue or predict the impact of changes in interest rates on net interest revenue. Actual results may differ from simulated results due to balance growth or decline and the timing, magnitude, and frequency of interest rate changes, as well as changes in market conditions and management strategies, including changes in asset and liability mix.

If our guidelines for net interest revenue sensitivity are breached, management must report the breach to the Financial Risk Oversight Committee and establish a plan to address the interest rate risk. There were no breaches of Schwab’s net interest revenue sensitivity risk limits during the three months ended March 31, 2018, or year ended December 31, 2017.

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

The simulations in the following table assume that the asset and liability structure of the consolidated balance sheets would not be changed as a result of the simulated changes in interest rates. As we actively manage the consolidated balance sheets and interest rate exposure, in all likelihood we would take steps to manage additional interest rate exposure that could result from changes in the interest rate environment. The following table shows the simulated net interest revenue change over the next 12 months beginning March 31, 20182019 and December 31, 20172018 of a gradual 100 basis point increase or decrease in market interest rates relative to prevailing market rates at the end of each reporting period:

Increase of 100 basis points 3.5 % 3.3 %
Decrease of 100 basis points (5.2)% (6.2)%
The change in net interest revenue sensitivities as of March 31, 2018 reflects the increase in interest rates across all maturities.

Liquidity Risk

Schwab’s primary source of funds is cash generated by client activity:activity which includes bank deposits and cash balances in client brokerage accounts. These funds are used to purchase investment securities and extend loans to clients.

Other sources of funds may include cash flows from operations, maturities and sales of investment securities, repayments on loans, securities lending of assets held in client brokerage accounts, repurchase agreements, and cash provided by external debt or equity financing.
 
To meet daily funding needs, we maintain liquidity in the form of overnight cash deposits and short-term investments. For unanticipated liquidity needs, a buffer of highly liquid investments, currently comprised ofincluding U.S. Treasury notes, is also maintained.

CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

Schwab seeks to manage capital to a level and composition sufficient to support execution of our business strategy, including anticipated balance sheet growth, providing financial support to our subsidiaries, and sustained access to the capital markets, while at the same time meeting our regulatory capital requirements and serving as a source of financial strength to our banking subsidiaries. Schwab’s primary sources of capital are funds generated by the operations of subsidiaries and securities issuances by CSC in the capital markets. To ensure that Schwab has sufficient capital to absorb unanticipated losses or declines in asset values, we have adopted a policy to remain well capitalized even in stressed scenarios.

1.    Introduction and Basis of Presentation
The Charles Schwab Corporation (CSC) is a savings and loan holding company engaged,and engages, through its subsidiaries, in wealth management, securities brokerage, banking, asset management, custody, and financial advisory services.

Significant business subsidiaries of CSC include the following:

Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (CS&Co), a securities broker-dealer;
Charles Schwab Bank (CSB), a federal savings bank; and
Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (CSIM), the investment advisor for Schwab’s proprietary mutual funds (Schwab Funds®) and for Schwab’s exchange-traded funds (Schwab ETFs™).

Unless otherwise indicated, the terms “Schwab,” “the Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our” mean CSC together with its consolidated subsidiaries.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (GAAP), which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the accompanying financial statements, and in the related disclosures. These estimates are based on information available as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements. While management makes its best judgment, actual amounts or results could differ from these estimates. In the opinion of management, all normal, recurring adjustments have been included for a fair statement of this interim financial information.
These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, included in Schwab’s 20172018 Form 10-K.
The significant accounting policies are included in Note 2 in the 20172018 Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes to these accounting policies during the first three months of 2018,2019, except as described in Note 2 below.
Principles of Consolidation
Schwab evaluates all entities in which it has financial interests for consolidation, except for money market funds, which are specifically excluded from consolidation guidance. When an entity is evaluated for consolidation, Schwab determines whether its interest in the entity constitutes a controlling financial interest under either the variable interest entity (VIE) model or a voting interest entity (VOE) model. In evaluating whether Schwab’s interest in a VIE is a controlling financial interest, we consider whether our involvement, in the context of the design, purpose, and risks of the VIE, as well as any involvement of related parties, provides us with (i) the power to direct the most significant activities of the VIE, and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits that are significant to the VIE. If both of these conditions exist, then Schwab would be the primary beneficiary of that VIE, and consolidate it. Based upon the assessments for all of our interests in VIEs, there are no cases where Schwab is the primary beneficiary; therefore, we are not required to consolidate any VIEs. Schwab consolidates all VOEs in which it has majority-voting interests.
Investments in entities in which Schwab does not have a controlling financial interest are accounted for under the equity method of accounting when we have the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financing decisions of the entity. Investments in entities for which Schwab does not have the ability to exercise significant influence are generally carried at cost and adjusted for impairment and observable price changes of the identical or similar investments of the same issuer (adjusted cost method), except for certain investments in qualified affordable housing projects which are accounted for under the proportional amortization method. All equity method, adjusted cost method, and proportional amortization method investments are included in other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

2.    New Accounting Standards

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

StandardDescriptionDate of AdoptionEffects on the Financial Statements or Other Significant Matters
Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” and related ASUsClarifies that revenue from contracts with clients should be recognized in a manner that depicts the timing of the related transfer of goods or performance of services at an amount that reflects the expected consideration.

Adoption allows either full or modified retrospective transition. Full retrospective transition required a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the earliest comparative period presented. Modified retrospective transition required a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the reporting period in which the entity first applies the new guidance.
January 1, 2018The guidance does not apply to revenue earned from the Company’s loans and securities. Accordingly, net interest revenue was not impacted. The primary impact for the Company was the capitalization on the consolidated balance sheets of sales commissions paid to employees for obtaining new contracts with clients. These capitalized costs resulted in an asset of $219 million and a related deferred tax liability of $52 million upon adoption. The asset is being amortized to expense over time as the related revenues are recognized.

The Company adopted the revenue recognition guidance using the modified retrospective method for all contracts that were not completed as of January 1, 2018. Further details of the impact of adoption are included below in this Note as well as in Note 3.
ASU 2016-01, “Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10)” and ASU 2018-03, “Technical Corrections and Improvements to Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10)”Requires: (i) equity investments to be measured at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in net income, unless the equity method is applied or the equity investments do not have readily determinable fair values in which case a practical alternative may be elected; (ii) use of an exit price when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosures; (iii) separate presentation of financial assets and liabilities by measurement category and form of instrument on the balance sheet or in the accompanying notes.

Adoption requires a cumulative effect adjustment to the balance sheet as of the beginning of the year of initial application, except for certain changes that require prospective adoption.
January 1, 2018The Company adopted this guidance on a prospective basis for its equity securities that do not have readily determinable fair values. No other significant changes resulted from adoption. Therefore, there was no material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

The Company elected to use the alternative to fair value measurement for its equity securities that do not have readily determinable fair values. These equity securities will be adjusted for impairment and observable price changes of the identical or similar investments of the same issuer, as applicable. Schwab refers to this approach as the adjusted cost method. This method was applied to an immaterial amount of community reinvestment act (CRA) investments included in Other assets on the consolidated balance sheets.

StandardDescriptionDate of AdoptionEffects on the Financial Statements or Other Significant Matters
ASU 2016-18, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) - Restricted Cash a Consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force”Requires that the statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total cash and cash equivalents, including restricted cash and cash equivalents.

Adoption requires retrospective presentation of the statement of cash flows to include restricted cash and cash equivalents in the beginning and ending amounts.
January 1, 2018The Company adopted this guidance on a retrospective basis. The Company has significant amounts of restricted cash and cash equivalents due to its business as a broker-dealer.

As a result of the adoption, changes in restricted cash and cash equivalents included within Cash and investments segregated and on deposit for regulatory purposes in the consolidated balance sheets are now presented with changes in cash and cash equivalents throughout the consolidated statements of cash flows. The amount of restricted cash and cash equivalents is included in a separate table in the consolidated statements of cash flows.
ASU 2018-02, “Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income”Permits reclassification of the impacts on certain tax affected items included in AOCI that were adjusted through income from continuing operations rather than AOCI upon the effective date of the Tax Act.

Adoption provides for retrospective adoption to all periods presented and impacted by the Tax Act or as of the beginning of the period of adoption.
January 1, 2018The Company early adopted this guidance as of the beginning of the quarter. The Company elected to reclassify the income tax effects of the Tax Act from items in AOCI into retained earnings.

Adoption resulted in a reduction in AOCI and a corresponding increase in retained earnings of $33 million.

New Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

StandardDescriptionRequired Date of AdoptionEffects on the Financial Statements or Other Significant Matters
ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)”
Amends the accounting for leases by lessees and lessors. The primary change from the new guidance is the recognition of right-of-use (ROU) assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases. Additional changes include accounting for lease origination and executory costs, required lessee reassessments during the lease term due to changes in circumstances, and expanded lease disclosures.

Adoption requiresprovides for modified retrospective transition as of the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements in which the entity first applies the new standard.standard or, optionally, through another transition method by which a cumulative-effect adjustment is recorded to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. Certain transition relief is permitted if elected by the entity.
January 1, 2019
The Company doesadopted the new lease accounting guidance as of January 1, 2019 under the optional transition method provided electing not expect thisto recast its comparative periods. In addition, the Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance will have a material impact on its earnings per common share (EPS), but it will resultwithin the new standard, which among other things, allowed the Company to carry forward the historical lease classification. The adoption resulted in a gross up of the consolidated balance sheetssheet due to recognition of right-of-useROU assets and lease liabilities primarily related to the CS&Co leases of office space and branches. The amounts were based on the present value of our remaining operating lease payments (seepayments. The Company’s ROU assets and related lease liabilities upon adoption were $596 million and $662 million, respectively. Further details on the impact of adoption are included below in this Note 13as well as in Note 9.
ASU 2017-08, “Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities”
Shortens the 2017 10-Kamortization period for the undiscounted rental commitmentspremium on certain callable debt securities to the earliest call date. The amendments are applicable to any purchased individual debt security with an explicit and noncontingent call feature with a fixed price on a preset date. ASU 2017-08 does not impact the accounting for operating leases).callable debt securities held at a discount.

Adoption requires modified retrospective transition as of the beginning of the period of adoption through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings.
January 1, 2019The Company adopted this guidance as of January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective method. Adoption resulted in an immaterial cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the date of adoption.
ASU 2017-12, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities” (ASU 2017-12)This ASU amends hedge accounting guidance to better align hedge accounting with risk management activities, while reducing the complexity of applying and reporting on hedge accounting. In addition, for a closed pool of prepayable financial assets, entities will be able to hedge an amount that is evaluatingnot expected to be affected by prepayments, defaults and other events under the “last-of-layer” method. The guidance also permits a one-time reclassification of debt securities eligible to be hedged under the “last-of-layer” method from held to maturity (HTM) to available for sale (AFS) upon adoption.January 1, 2019The Company adopted this ASU on January 1, 2019. As part of its adoption, the Company made a one-time election to reclassify a portion of its HTM securities eligible to be hedged under the “last-of-layer” method due to AFS. As of January 1, 2019, the securities reclassified had a recently proposed ASU that provides an alternativefair value of $8.8 billion and resulted in a net of tax increase to AOCI of $19 million.

The Company is refining its methodology to estimateof this standard had no other impact on the right of use assets and lease liabilities and working on system updates to apply the lease accounting changes. The full population of contracts that may be subject to balance sheet recognition is still being evaluated, and is nearly complete. The Company has further work to perform related to disclosures.

New Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
StandardDescriptionRequired Date of AdoptionEffects on the Financial Statements or Other Significant Matters
ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”Provides guidance for recognizing impairment of most debt instruments measured at amortized cost, including loans and held to maturity (HTM)HTM debt securities. Requires estimating current expected credit losses (CECL) over the remaining life of an instrument or a portfolio of instruments with similar risk characteristics based on relevant information about past events, current conditions, and reasonable forecasts. The initial estimate of, and the subsequent changes in, CECL will be recognized as credit loss expense through current earnings and will be reflected as an allowance for credit losses offsetting the carrying value of the financial instrument(s) on the balance sheet. Amends the OTTI model for available for sale (AFS)AFS debt securities by requiring the use of an allowance, rather than directly reducing the carrying value of the security, and eliminating consideration of the length of time such security has been in an unrealized loss position as a factor in concluding whether a credit loss exists.

Adoption requires a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the entity applies the new guidance except that a prospective transition is required for AFS debt securities for which an OTTI has been recognized prior to the effective date.
January 1, 2020 (early adoption permitted)
The Company is currently evaluatingcontinues to evaluate the impact of this guidance on its financial statements, including EPS. Initial implementation work performedstatements. The Company expects that its allowance for credit losses will increase when CECL is adopted, primarily due to an incremental allowance that will be recorded on its HTM corporate debt securities. The incremental allowance at adoption is expected to be immaterial, but the extent of the impact of adoption will depend on, among other things, the economic environment and the size and type of loan and securities portfolios held by the Company on the date has focused on evaluatingof adoption.
A large portion of the securities in the Company’s impacted assets, including loansportfolio will have zero expectation of credit losses based on industry views and investmentregulatory guidance for U.S. Treasury and certain government agency-backed securities. Further, we expect to apply the practical expedient based on continuous collateral replenishment to the Company’s pledged asset lines (PALs) and margin loans.
The Company has also been evaluatingsubstantially developed its current datacredit loss estimation methods for the securities in its portfolio that do not have zero expectation of credit losses, including corporate debt securities and system capabilitiesstructured products. Our focus during the remainder of 2019 is on continuing the development of policies and considering additional data sourcesprocesses that will be required to implement CECL, testing and system enhancements. Additional work to be completed includes an in-depth analysis for each impacted asset type, selectionvalidation of credit loss estimation methods, and changes to policies and procedures.performance of CECL parallel runs.

ASU 2017-08, “Receivables - Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities”Shortens the amortization period for the premium on certain callable debt securities to the earliest call date. The amendments are applicable to any purchased individual debt security with an explicit and noncontingent call feature with a fixed price on a preset date. ASU 2017-08 does not impact the accounting for callable debt securities held at a discount.

Adoption requires modified retrospective transition as of the beginning of the period of adoption through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings.

ASU 2018-15, “Intangibles–Goodwill and Other–Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)”

Aligns the criteria for capitalizing implementation costs for cloud computing arrangements (CCA) that are service contracts with internal-use software that is developed or purchased and CCAs that include an internal-use software license. This guidance requires that the capitalized implementation costs be recognized over the period of the CCA service contract, subject to impairment evaluation on an ongoing basis.

The guidance prescribes the balance sheet, income statement, and statement of cash flow classification of the capitalized implementation costs and related amortization expense, and requires additional quantitative and qualitative disclosures.

Adoption provides for retrospective or prospective application to all implementation costs incurred after the date of adoption.

January 1, 2020 (early adoption permitted)
Historically, Schwab has expensed implementation costs as they are incurred for CCAs that are service contracts. Therefore, adopting this guidance will change the Company’s accounting treatment for these types of implementation costs. The Company plans to adopt this guidance on a prospective basis and continues to evaluate the impacts of this guidance on its financial statements, including EPS.

For a summary of revenue provided by our reportable segments, see Note 17.16. The recognition of revenue is not impacted by the operating segment in which revenue is generated.
Contract balances
Receivables from contracts with customers within the scope of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606, Revenue From Contracts With Customers (ASC 606) were $315 million at March 31, 2019 and $307 million at December 31, 2018 and were recorded in other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Schwab does not have any other significant contract assets or contract liability balances as of March 31, 2018.
Net interest revenue
Net interest revenue, which is generated from financial instruments covered by various other areas of GAAP, is not within the scope of ASU 2014-09, and is included in the table above in order to reconcile to total net revenues per the condensed consolidated statement of income. Net interest revenue is the difference between interest generated on interest earning assets and interest paid on funding sources. Our primary interest earning assets include cash and cash equivalents; segregated cash and investments; margin loans, which constitute the majority of receivables from brokerage clients; investment securities; and bank loans. Revenue on interest earning assets is affected by various factors, such as the composition of assets, prevailing interest rates at the time of origination or purchase, changes in interest rates on floating rate securities, and changes in prepayment levels for mortgage related securities and loans. Fees earned on securities borrowing and lending activities, which are conducted by CS&Co on assets held in client brokerage accounts, are included in other interest revenue and expense.

Tradingan elective practical expedient under ASC 606. The practical expedient applies to and is elected for contracts where we recognize revenue

Substantially all trading revenue is generated through commissions earned for executing trades for clients in individual equities, options, fixed income securities, and certain third-party mutual funds and ETFs. This revenue is earned and collected at a point-in-time which is consistent with the timing that the trade execution services are performed.

Other revenue
Other revenue includes order flow revenue, other service fees, software fees from our portfolio management solutions, exchange processing fees, and nonrecurring gains. Generally, the most significant portion of other revenue is order flow revenue, which are payments received from execution venuesamount to which CS&Co sends equity and option orders. Order flow revenue is recognized atwe have the point-in-time that the trades are executed.

Capitalized contract costs
Deferred contract costs relateright to sales commissions paid to employeesinvoice for obtaining contracts with clients and are included in Other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. These costs are amortized to expense on a straight-line basis over a period that is consistent with how the related revenue is recognized. At March 31, 2018 and January 1, 2018, we had $230 million and $219 million of deferred contract costs, respectively. Amortization expense related to deferred contract costs was $11 million for the first quarter of 2018, which was recorded in Compensation and benefits expense.

Credit Quality
In addition to monitoring delinquency, Schwab monitors the credit quality of First Mortgages and HELOCs by stratifying the portfolios by the following:
Year of origination;
Borrower FICO scores at origination (Origination FICO);
Updated borrower FICO scores (Updated FICO);
Loan-to-value (LTV) ratios at origination (Origination LTV); and
Estimated current LTV ratios (Estimated Current LTV).
Borrowers’ FICO scores are provided by an independent third-party credit reporting service and were last updated in March 2018.quarterly. The Origination LTV and Estimated Current LTV for a HELOC include any first lien mortgage outstanding on the same property at the time of the HELOC’s origination. The Estimated Current LTV for each loan is estimatedupdated on a monthly basis by reference to a home price appreciation index.

At March 31, 2018,2019, First Mortgage loans of $9.1$9.4 billion had adjustable interest rates. TheseSubstantially all of these mortgages have initial fixed interest rates for three to ten years and interest rates that adjust annually thereafter. Approximately 33%30% of the balance of these mortgages consisted of loans with interest-only payment terms. The interest rates on approximately 60%65% of the balance of these interest-only loans are not scheduled to reset for three or more years. Schwab’s mortgage loans do not include interest terms described as temporary introductory rates below current market rates.

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

At March 31, 2018, $1.42019, $1.1 billion of the HELOC portfolio was secured by second liens on the associated properties. Second lien mortgage loans typically possess a higher degree of credit risk given the subordination to the first lien holder in the event of default. In addition to the credit monitoring activities described previously, Schwab also monitors credit risk by reviewing the delinquency status of the first lien loan on the associated property. At March 31, 2018,2019, the borrowers on approximately 36%51% of HELOC loan balances outstanding only paid the minimum amount due.


6.    Variable Interest Entities
As of March 31, 20182019 and December 31, 2017,2018, all of Schwab’s involvement with variable interest entities (VIEs) is through CSB’s Community Reinvestment Act-related investments and most of those are related to LIHTCLow-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) investments. As part of CSB’s community reinvestment initiatives, CSB invests with other institutional investors in funds that make equity investments in multifamily affordable housing properties. CSB receives tax credits and other tax benefits for these investments. CSB’s LIHTC investments are accounted for using the proportional amortization method, which amortizes the cost of the investment over the period in which the investor expects to receive tax credits and other tax benefits, and the resulting amortization is included in taxes on income on the consolidated statements of income.
Aggregate assets, liabilities and maximum exposure to loss
The aggregate assets, liabilities, and maximum exposure to loss from those VIEs in which Schwab holds a variable interest, but as to which we have concluded it is not the primary beneficiary, are summarized in the table below:

Schwab’s maximum exposure to loss would result from the loss of the investments, including any committed amounts. During the three months ended March 31, 20182019 and 2017,year ended December 31, 2018, Schwab did not provide or intend to provide financial or other support to the VIEs that it was not contractually required to provide. CSB’s funding of these remaining commitments is dependent upon the occurrence of certain conditions, and CSB expects to pay substantially all of these commitments between 20182019 and 2021.2022.

9.    Leases

The Company has operating leases for corporate offices, branch locations, and server equipment and determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet; we recognize lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The lease liability may include payments that depend on a rate or index (such as the Consumer Price Index), measured using the rate or index at the commencement date. Payments that vary because of changes in facts or circumstances occurring after the commencement date are considered variable. These payments are not recognized as part of the lease liability and are expensed in the period incurred. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
We have lease agreements with lease and non-lease components. For the majority of our leases (real estate leases), the Company has elected the practical expedient to account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. We have not elected the practical expedient for equipment leases and account for lease and non-lease components separately for those classes of leases.
As our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Our lease terms may include periods covered by options to extend when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise those options. The lease terms may also include periods covered by options to terminate when it is reasonably certain that we will not exercise that option.
Lease expense for operating lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company does not have any finance leases and had an immaterial amount of sublease income for all periods presented.

Loan Portfolio: CSB provides a co-branded loan origination program for CSB clients (the Program) with Quicken Loans, Inc. (Quicken Loans®). Pursuant to the Program, Quicken Loans originates and services First Mortgages and HELOCs for CSB clients. Under the Program, CSB purchases certain First Mortgages and HELOCs that are originated by Quicken Loans. CSB purchased First Mortgages of $513$411 million and $665$513 million during the first quarters of 2019 and 2018, and 2017, respectively. SchwabCSB purchased HELOCs with commitments of $107$62 million and $118$107 million during the first quarters of 20182019 and 2017,2018, respectively.

Guarantees and indemnifications: Schwab has clients that sell (i.e., write) listed option contracts that are cleared by the Options Clearing Corporation – a clearing house that establishes margin requirements on these transactions. We partially satisfy the margin requirements by arranging unsecured standby letter of credit agreements (LOCs), in favor of the Options Clearing Corporation, which are issued by several banks. At March 31, 2018,2019, the aggregate face amount of these LOCs totaled $225 million. There were no funds drawn under any of these LOCs at March 31, 2018.2019. In connection with its securities lending activities, Schwab is required to provide collateral to certain brokerage clients. The Company satisfies the collateral requirements by providing cash as collateral.
Schwab also provides guarantees to securities clearing houses and exchanges under standard membership agreements, which require members to guarantee the performance of other members. Under the agreements, if another member becomes unable to satisfy its obligations to the clearing houses and exchanges, other members would be required to meet shortfalls. Schwab’s liability under these arrangements is not quantifiable and may exceed the cash and securities it has posted as collateral. The

(Unaudited)

potential requirement for the Company to make payments under these arrangements is remote. Accordingly, no liability has been recognized for these guarantees.
Legal contingencies: Schwab is subject to claims and lawsuits in the ordinary course of business, including arbitrations, class actions and other litigation, some of which include claims for substantial or unspecified damages. The Company is also the subject of inquiries, investigations, and proceedings by regulatory and other governmental agencies.

Predicting the outcome of a litigation or regulatory matter is inherently difficult, requiring significant judgment and evaluation of various factors, including the procedural status of the matter and any recent developments; prior experience and the experience of others in similar cases; available defenses, including potential opportunities to dispose of a case on the merits or procedural grounds before trial (e.g., motions to dismiss or for summary judgment); the progress of fact discovery; the opinions of counsel and experts regarding potential damages; and potential opportunities for settlement and the status of any settlement discussions; and potential insurance coverage and indemnification.

CHARLES SCHWAB CORPORATION

(Unaudited)

discussions. It may not be reasonably possible to estimate a range of potential liability until the matter is closer to resolution – pending, for example, further proceedings, the outcome of key motions or appeals, or discussions among the parties. Numerous issues may have to be developed, such as discovery of important factual matters and determination of threshold legal issues, which may include novel or unsettled questions of law. Reserves are established or adjusted or further disclosure and estimates of potential loss are provided as the matter progresses and more information becomes available.

Schwab believes it has strong defenses in all significant matters currently pending and is contesting liability and any damages claimed. Nevertheless, some of these matters may result in adverse judgments or awards, including penalties, injunctions or other relief, and the Company may also determine to settle a matter because of the uncertainty and risks of litigation. Described below areis a certain mattersmatter in which there is a reasonable possibility that a material loss could be incurred or where the matter may otherwise be of significant interest to stockholders. Unless otherwise noted, the Company is unable to provide a reasonable estimate of any potential liability given the stage of proceedings in the matter. With respect to all other pending matters, based on current information and consultation with counsel, it does not appear reasonably possible that the outcome of any such matter would be material to the financial condition, operating results, or cash flows of the Company.

Total Bond Market Fund Litigation: On August 28, 2008, a class action lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California on behalf of investors in the Schwab Total Bond Market Fund. The lawsuit, which alleged violations of state law and federal securities law in connection with the fund’s investment policy, named CSIM, Schwab Investments (registrant and issuer of the fund’s shares), and certain current and former fund trustees as defendants. Allegations include that the fund improperly deviated from its stated investment objectives by investing in collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs) and investing more than 25% of fund assets in CMOs and mortgage-backed securities without obtaining a fundholder vote. Plaintiff seeks unspecified compensatory and rescission damages, unspecified equitable and injunctive relief, costs, and attorneys’ fees on behalf of a putative class of investors who held shares as of August 31, 2007, and a putative class of investors who purchased the shares between September 1, 2017 and February 27, 2009. Plaintiff’s federal securities law claim and certain of plaintiff’s state law claims were dismissed. On August 8, 2011, the court dismissed plaintiff’s remaining claims with prejudice. Plaintiff appealed to the Ninth Circuit, which issued a ruling on March 9, 2015 reversing the district court’s dismissal of the case and remanding the case for further proceedings. Plaintiff filed a fourth amended complaint on June 25, 2015, and in decisions issued October 6, 2015 and February 23, 2016, the court dismissed all claims with prejudice. Plaintiff has appealed to the Ninth Circuit, where the case remains pending.

Crago Order Routing Litigation: On July 13, 2016, a securities class action lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California on behalf of a putative class of customers executing equity orders through CS&Co. The lawsuit names CS&Co and CSC as defendants and alleges that an agreement under which CS&Co routed orders to UBS Securities LLC between July 13, 2011 and December 31, 2014 violated CS&Co’s duty to seek best execution. Plaintiffs seek unspecified damages, interest, injunctive and equitable relief, and attorneys’ fees and costs. After a first amended complaint was dismissed with leave to amend, plaintiffs filed a second amended complaint on August 14, 2017. Defendants again moved to dismiss, and in a decision issued December 5, 2017, the court denied the motion. Defendants have answered the complaint to deny all allegations, and intend to vigorously contest the lawsuit.

10.11.     Financial Instruments Subject to Off-Balance Sheet Credit Risk

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

Securities lending: Schwab loans brokerage client securities temporarily to other brokers and clearing houses in connection with its securities lending activities and receives cash as collateral for the securities loaned. Increases in security prices may cause the fair value of the securities loaned to exceed the amount of cash received as collateral. In the event the counterparty to these transactions does not return the loaned securities or provide additional cash collateral, we may be exposed to the risk of acquiring the securities at prevailing market prices in order to satisfy our client obligations. Schwab mitigates this risk by requiring credit approvals for counterparties, monitoring the fair value of securities loaned, and requiring additional cash as collateral when necessary. We also borrow securities from other broker-dealers to fulfill short sales by brokerage clients and deliver cash to the lender in exchange for the securities. The fair value of these borrowed securities was $237$281 million and $215$99 million at March 31, 20182019 and December 31, 2017,2018, respectively. All of our securities lending transactions are through a program with a clearing organization, which guarantees the return of cash to us and is subject to enforceable master netting arrangements with other broker-dealers; however, we do not net securities lending transactions. Therefore, the securities loaned and securities borrowed are presented gross in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

12.    Fair Values of Assets and Liabilities

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis

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

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

For a description of the fair value hierarchy and Schwab’s fair value methodologies, including the use of independent third-party pricing services, see Note 2 in the 20172018 Form 10-K. We did not transfer any assets or liabilities between Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 during the three months ended March 31, 2018,2019, or the year ended December 31, 2017.2018. In addition, the Company did not adjust prices received from the primary independent third-party pricing service at March 31, 20182019 or December 31, 2017.2018.

14.    Taxes on Income
On December 22, 2017, the Tax Act was signed into law. Among other things, the Tax Act lowered the federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%, effective for tax years including or commencing January 1, 2018. In connection with our initial analysis(1) As part of the impactadoption of the Tax Act, Schwab’s effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2018, was 21.9% compared to 33.1% for the same periodASU 2017-12, in 2017.

Also as a result of the Tax Act, Schwab recognized a $46 million one-time non-cash charge to taxes on income in the fourth quarter of 2017 associated with the remeasurement of net deferred tax assets and other tax adjustments related to the Tax Act. While we were able to make a reasonable estimate of the impact of the reduction in the corporate tax rate in the fourth quarter of 2017, our accounting for various elements of the Tax Act may be affected by clarifications of the Tax Act and other related analysis including, but not limited to, bonus depreciation that will allow for immediate expensing of qualified property and the state tax effect of adjustments made to federal temporary differences. As such, the impact of the Tax Act is an estimate pending further information and the analysis noted.

Schwab did not record any material measurement-period adjustments related to the Tax Act during the first quarter of 2018. We are continuing2019, the Company made a one-time election to gathertransfer a portion of its HTM securities to AFS. The transfer resulted in a net of tax increase to AOCI of $19 million. See Notes 2 and 4 for additional informationdiscussion on the transfer of HTM securities to complete the accounting for estimated items and expect to complete the accounting within the prescribed measurement period. As of January 1, 2018, Schwab adopted new accounting guidance that decreased AOCI and increased retained earnings by $33 million for the reclassification of certain impacts of the Tax Act as described in Note 2.AFS.

(1) Beginning in 2019, CSC and CSB are subject to the “advanced approaches” framework under the Basel III capital rule. As a result, we are now required to include all components of AOCI in regulatory capital and report our supplementary leverage ratio, which is calculated as Tier 1 capital divided by total leverage exposure. Total leverage exposure includes all on-balance sheet assets and certain off-balance sheet exposures, including unused commitments. Prior to 2019, CSC and CSB elected to opt-out of the requirement to include most components of AOCI in Common Equity Tier 1 Capital; the amounts and ratios for December 31, 2018 are presented on this basis.
(2) Under the Basel III capital rule, CSC and CSB are also required to maintain a capital conservation buffer and, beginning in 2019, a countercyclical capital buffer above the regulatory minimum risk-based capital ratios. The capital conservation buffer became 2.5% on January 1, 2019 (1.875% at December 31, 2018). At March 31, 2019, the countercyclical capital buffer was zero percent. If either buffer falls below the minimum requirement, the Company would be subject to limits on capital distributions and discretionary bonus payments to executive officers. At March 31, 2019 the minimum capital requirement plus capital conservation buffer and countercyclical capital buffer for Common Equity Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital, Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital, and Total Risk-Based Capital ratios were 7.0%, 8.5%, and 10.5%, respectively.

AtThere are no conditions or events since March 31, 2018, both CSC’s and2019 that management believes have changed CSB’s capital levels exceeded the fully implemented capital conservation buffer requirement.
