All fund and index figures on this page assume dividends and distributions were reinvested. Index figures do not include trading and management costs, which would lower performance. Indices are unmanaged, and you cannot invest in them directly. Performance results less than one year are not annualized. Performance does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or on the redemption of fund shares.

Investment return and principal value will fluctuate, so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed or sold, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Shares are bought and sold at market price, which may be higher or lower than the net asset value (NAV). Brokerage commissions will reduce returns.

Since ETFs are baskets of securities that trade on a stock exchange, ETF performance must be shown based on both a Market Price and a Net Asset Value (NAV) basis.

Fixed income securities are subject to increased loss of principal during periods of rising interest rates. An investment in the fund(s) is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Government backing applies only to the government issued bonds that make up the fund, not the fund itself.

TIPS generally have lower yields than conventional fixed rate bonds and will likely decline in price during periods of deflation, which could result in losses.

Barclays and the names identifying the Barclays’ indices are trademarks or names of Barclays Bank PLC and its affiliates (“Barclays”) and have been licensed for use in connection with the listing and trading of the funds. The funds are not sponsored by, endorsed, sold or promoted by Barclays and Barclays makes no representation regarding the advisability of investing in such funds.


¹		The fund’s per share net asset value (“NAV”) is the value of one share of the fund. NAV is calculated by taking the fund’s total assets (including the market value of securities owned), subtracting liabilities, and dividing by the number of shares outstanding. The NAV Return is based on the NAV of the fund, and the Market Price Return is based on the market price per share of the fund. The price used to calculate market return (“Market Price”) is determined by using the midpoint between the highest bid and the lowest offer on the primary stock exchange on which the shares of the fund are listed for trading, as of the time that the fund’s NAV is calculated. Market Price and NAV returns assume that dividends and capital gain distributions have been reinvested in the fund at Market Price and NAV, respectively.

From the President

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 goals, and for reading this important report concerning the Schwab Fixed-Income ETFs. These funds are part of our line-up of core investment products and are available at some of the lowest operating expense ratios in the industry. The funds track market-leading, fixed-income indices that are based on various segments of the bond market. The funds also provide the full benefits of an ETF, including transparency, trading flexibility, and potential tax efficiency.

For the six months ended June 30, 2013, the funds generated flat to negative net asset value returns that reflected a sharp rise in bond yields, but were within 15 basis points (0.15%) or less of their respective indices. Up until May, the Federal Reserve’s policies aimed at keeping short- and long-term interest rates low and stimulating the U.S. economy generally supported the performance of fixed-income securities. However, with the housing market and other areas of the economy generally improving, the Fed announced plans to potentially begin reducing some of its stimulative policies. In response, bond yields rose sharply in May and June, and bond prices fell.

Amid this backdrop, most bonds produced negative returns for the six months ended June 30, 2013. Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities generated particularly sharp losses that resulted from rising yields combined with slower inflation. The Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (broadly reflecting the U.S. bond market) returned -2.4%, while the Treasury sector of the index returned -2.1%, and the Corporate sector returned -3.4%.

Yields of U.S. Treasury Securities: Effective Yields of Three-Month, Two-Year and 10-Year Treasuries

Yields, or interest rates, represent the cost of borrowing money. Rapid economic growth, waning investor interest in bonds, an increase in the issuance of bonds, or the expectation of higher inflation can drive rates up, while the opposite conditions can push rates down.

Indices are unmanaged, do not incur management fees, costs and expenses, and cannot be invested in directly. Index return figures assume dividends and distributions were reinvested.

An index is a statistical composite of a specified financial market or sector. Unlike the fund, an index does not actually hold a portfolio of securities and its return is not inclusive of operational and transaction costs incurred by the fund.

Investment returns will fluctuate and are subject to market volatility, so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed or sold, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Shares are bought and sold at market price, which may be higher or lower than the net asset value (NAV). Brokerage commissions will reduce returns.

TIPS generally have lower yields than conventional fixed rate bonds and will likely decline in price during periods of deflation, which could result in losses.

Fund Expenses (Unaudited)

Examples for a $1,000 Investment

As a shareholder of a fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including brokerage commissions on purchases and sales of fund shares; and, (2) ongoing costs, including management fees 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 January 1, 2013 and held through June 30, 2013.

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, including any redemption fees or brokerage commissions you may pay when purchasing or redeeming shares of the fund. 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 Strategic Trust (the “trust”), a no-load, open-end management investment company. The trust is organized as a Delaware statutory trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The list below shows all the funds in the trust as of the end of the period, including the funds discussed in this report, which are highlighted:



Schwab Strategic Trust (organized January 27, 2009)		Schwab U.S. Large-Cap Value ETF
Schwab U.S. TIPS ETF		Schwab U.S. Mid-Cap ETF
Schwab U.S. Short-Term U.S. Treasury ETF		Schwab U.S. Small-Cap ETF
Schwab U.S. Intermediate-Term U.S. Treasury ETF		Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF
Schwab U.S. Aggregate Bond ETF		Schwab International Equity ETF
Schwab U.S. Broad Market ETF		Schwab International Small-Cap Equity ETF
Schwab U.S. Large-Cap ETF		Schwab Emerging Markets Equity ETF
Schwab U.S. Large-Cap Growth ETF		Schwab U.S. REIT ETF

The funds issue and redeem shares at their net asset value per share (“NAV”) only in large blocks of shares, typically 50,000 shares or more (“Creation Units”). These transactions are usually in exchange for a basket of securities and an amount of cash. As a practical matter, only institutions or large investors purchase or redeem Creation Units. Except when aggregated in Creation Units, shares of the fund are not redeemable securities.

Individual shares of the funds trade on national securities exchanges and elsewhere during the trading day and can only be bought and sold at market prices throughout the trading day through a broker-dealer. Because fund shares trade at market prices rather than NAV, shares may trade at a price greater than NAV (premium) or less than NAV (discount).

Each fund maintains its own account for purposes of holding assets and accounting, and is considered a separate entity for tax purposes. Within its account, each fund may also keep certain assets in segregated accounts, as required by securities law.

2. Significant Accounting Policies:

The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the funds use in their preparation of financial statements. The 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 funds’ Board of Trustees (the “Board’’), the investment adviser has formed a Pricing Committee to administer the pricing and valuation of portfolio securities and other assets and to ensure that prices used for internal purposes or provided by third parties reasonably reflect fair market value. Among other things, these procedures allow the funds to utilize independent pricing services, quotations from securities and financial instrument dealers and other market sources to determine fair value.

The funds value the securities in their portfolios every business day. The funds use the following policies to value various types of securities:


	•	Bonds and notes: Bonds and notes are valued at halfway between the most recent bid and asked quotes or, if such quotes are unavailable, at prices for securities of comparable maturity, credit quality and type. Valuations for bonds and notes are provided by independent bond-pricing services.

	•	Securities for which no quoted value is available: The Board has adopted procedures to fair value each fund’s securities when market prices are not “readily available” or are unreliable. For example, a fund may fair value a security when it is de-listed or its trading is halted or suspended; when a security’s primary pricing source is unable or unwilling to provide a price; or when a security’s primary trading market is closed during regular market hours. Each fund makes fair value determinations in good faith in accordance with the fund’s valuation procedures. The Pricing Committee considers a number of factors, including unobservable market inputs when arriving at fair value. The Pricing Committee may employ techniques such as the review of related or comparable assets or liabilities, related market activities, recent transactions, market multiples, book values, transactional back-testing, disposition analysis and other relevant information. The Pricing Committee regularly reviews these inputs and assumptions to calibrate the valuations. Due to the subjective and variable nature of fair value pricing, there can be no assurance that a fund could obtain the fair value assigned to the security upon the sale of such security. The Board convenes on a regular basis to review fair value determinations made by the funds pursuant to the valuation procedures.

Schwab Fixed-Income ETFs

Financial Notes, unaudited (continued)

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):


	•	Short-term securities (60 days or less to maturity): Short-term securities are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.

	•	Underlying funds: Mutual funds are valued at their respective NAVs. Exchange traded funds (ETFs) traded on a recognized securities exchange are valued at the last reported sale price that day or the official closing price, if applicable.

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 inputs used to measure the financial instruments fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the valuation. If the funds determine that either the volume and/or level of activity for an asset or liability has significantly decreased (from normal conditions for that asset or liability) or price quotations or observable inputs are not associated with orderly transactions, increased analysis and management judgment will be required to estimate fair value.

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:


	•	Level 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 mutual funds are valued at their NAVs, which 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 June 30, 2013 are disclosed in the Portfolio Holdings.

(b) Accounting Policies for certain Portfolio Investments (if held):

Securities Lending: Under the trust’s Securities Lending Program, a fund (lender) may make short-term loans of its securities to another party (borrower) to generate additional revenue for the fund. The borrower pledges collateral in the form of cash, securities issued or fully guaranteed by the U.S. government or foreign government, 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

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):

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 June 30, 2013 and the value of the related collateral are disclosed in the Portfolio Holdings and the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

Inflation-Protected Securities: The Schwab U.S. TIPS ETF invests in inflation-protected securities. Inflation-protected securities are fixed-income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted to the rate of inflation. Over the life of an inflation-protected security, interest is paid based on a principal value, which is adjusted for inflation. Any increase or decrease in the principal amount of an inflation-protected security will be included as interest income on the Statement of Operations, even though investors do not receive their principal until maturity.

TBA Commitments: The Schwab U.S. Aggregate Bond ETF may enter into “TBA” (to be announced) commitments to purchase or sell securities for a fixed price at a future date. Payments or proceeds of TBA commitments are not delivered until the contractual settlement date. Unsettled TBA commitments are valued at the current market value generally according to the procedures described above in Security Valuation section. The fund’s use of TBA commitments may cause the fund to experience higher portfolio turnover and higher transaction costs.

(c) Security Transactions:

Security transactions are recorded as of the date the order to buy or sell the security is executed. Realized gains or losses from security transactions are based on the identified costs of the securities involved. Gains or losses from paydowns on mortgage and asset backed securities are recorded as adjustments to interest income.

(d) Investment Income:

Interest income is recorded as it accrues. If a fund buys a debt security at a discount (less than face value) or a premium (more than face value), it amortizes premiums and accretes discounts from the current date up to maturity. The fund then increases (in the case of discounts) or reduces (in the case of premiums) the income it records from the security. If the security is callable (meaning that the issuer has the option to pay it off before its maturity date), then the fund amortizes the premium to the security’s call date and price, rather than the maturity date and price.

(e) Expenses:

Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement (“Advisor Agreement”) between Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (“CSIM” or the “investment adviser”) and the trust, the investment adviser will pay the operating expenses of each fund, excluding interest expense, taxes, any brokerage expenses, and extraordinary or non-routine expenses. Interest expense, taxes, any brokerage expenses and extraordinary or non-routine expenses that are specific to a fund are charged directly to the fund.

(f) Distributions to Shareholders:

The funds declare distributions from net investment income monthly and net realized capital gains, if any, once a year.

(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 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.

Schwab Fixed-Income ETFs

Financial Notes, unaudited (continued)

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):

(i) Indemnification:

Under the funds’ organizational documents, the officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the funds. In addition, in the normal course of business the funds enter into contracts with their vendors and others that provide general indemnifications. The funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the funds. However, based on experience, the funds expect the risk of loss attributable to these arrangements to be remote.

3. Risk Factors:

Investing in the funds may involve certain risks, as discussed in the funds’ prospectus, including, but not limited to, those described below. Any of these risks could cause an investor to lose money.

Bond markets rise and fall daily. As with any investment whose performance is tied to these markets, the value of an investment in a fund will fluctuate, which means that the shareholder could lose money.

The funds are not actively managed. Therefore, the funds follow the securities included in the index during upturns as well as downturns. Because of their indexing strategy, the funds do not take steps to reduce market exposure or to lessen the effects of a declining market. In addition, because of the funds’ expenses, the funds’ performance is normally below that of their respective index.

The funds are subject to the risk that interest rates rise and fall over time. As with any investment whose yield reflects current interest rates, a fund’s yield will change over time. During periods when interest rates are low, a fund’s yield (and total return) also may be low. Changes in interest rates also may affect a fund’s share price: a sharp rise in interest rates could cause a fund’s share price to fall. The longer a fund’s duration, the more sensitive to interest rate movements its share price is likely to be.

The funds are subject to the risk that a decline in the credit quality of a portfolio investment could cause the funds to lose money or underperform. The funds could lose money if the issuer or guarantor of a portfolio investment fails to make timely principal or interest payments or otherwise honor its obligations.

The value of inflation-protected securities, including TIPS, generally will fluctuate in response to changes in “real” interest rates, generally decreasing when real interest rates rise and increasing when real interest rates fall. Real interest rates represent nominal (or stated) interest rates reduced by the expected impact of inflation. In addition, interest payments on inflation-indexed securities will generally vary up or down along with the rate of inflation.

To the extent a fund uses statistical sampling techniques, the fund may not fully replicate the index and may hold securities not included in the index. As a result, a fund is subject to the risk that the adviser’s investment management strategy, the implementation of which is subject to a number of constraints, may not produce the intended results. If a fund uses a sampling approach it may not track the return of the index as well as it would if a fund purchased all of the securities in its benchmark index.

As index funds, the funds seek to track the performance of their benchmark index, although they may not be successful in doing so. The divergence between the performance of a fund and its benchmark index, positive or negative, is called “tracking error“. Tracking error can be caused by many factors and it may be significant. For example, a fund may not invest in certain securities in its benchmark index or match the securities’ weighting to the benchmark.

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.

Fund shares may be bought and sold in the secondary market at market prices. Although it is expected that the market price of the shares of a fund will approximate the fund’s NAV, there may be times when the market price and the NAV vary significantly. Investors may pay more than NAV when they buy shares of the fund in the secondary market, and may receive less than NAV when they sell those shares in the secondary market.

3. Risk Factors (continued):

Although fund shares are listed on national securities exchanges, there can be no assurance that an active trading market for fund shares will develop or be maintained. If an active market is not maintained, investors may find it difficult to buy or sell fund shares.

Schwab U.S. Aggregate Bond ETF may invest in U.S.-registered, dollar-denominated bonds of non-U.S. corporations, governments, agencies and supra-national entities to the extent such bonds are included in the fund’s index. The fund’s investments in bonds of non-U.S. issuers may involve certain risks that are greater than those associated with investments in securities of U.S. issuers. These include risks of adverse changes in foreign economic, political, regulatory and other conditions; differing accounting, auditing, financial reporting and legal standards and practices; differing securities market structures; and higher transaction costs. These risks may be heightened in connection with bonds issued by non-U.S. corporations and entities in emerging markets.

With respect to the Schwab U.S. Aggregate Bond ETF, certain of the mortgage-backed securities in which the fund may invest are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government and there can be no assurance that the U.S. government would provide financial support to its agencies or instrumentalities where it was not obligated to do so. Mortgage-backed securities tend to increase in value less than other debt securities when interest rates decline, but are subject to similar risk of decline in market value during periods of rising interest rates. Because of prepayment and extension risk, mortgage-backed securities react differently to changes in interest rates than other bonds. Small movements in interest rates — both increases and decreases — may quickly and significantly affect the value of certain mortgage-backed securities. Transactions in mortgage pass-through securities primarily occur through TBA transactions, as described in the fund’s prospectus. Default by or bankruptcy of a counterparty to a TBA Transaction would expose the fund to possible losses because of an adverse market action, expenses, or delays in connection with the purchase or sale of the pools of mortgage pass-through securities specified in the TBA Transaction.

An investment in a fund is not a bank deposit and it is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) or any other government agency.

Please refer to the funds’ prospectus for a more complete description of the principal risks of investing in the funds.

5. Other Service Providers:

SEI Investments Distribution Co. is the principal underwriter and distributor of shares of the funds.

State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”) serves as the funds’ transfer agent. As part of these services, the transfer agent maintains records pertaining to the sale, redemption and transfer of the funds’ shares.

State Street also serves as custodian and accountant for the funds. The custodian is responsible for the daily safekeeping of securities and cash held by the funds. The funds’ accountant maintains all books and records related to the funds’ transactions.

6. Board of Trustees:

The Board may include people who are officers and/or directors of the investment adviser or its affiliate. 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. For information regarding the trustees please refer to Trustees and Officers table at the end of this report.

7. Borrowing from Banks:

The funds have access to custodian overdraft facilities and to an uncommitted line of credit of $100 million with State Street. The funds pay interest on the amounts they borrow at rates that are negotiated periodically.

There were no borrowings from the line of credit by the funds during the period. However, the funds may have utilized their overdraft facility and incurred interest expense, which is disclosed on the Statement of Operations, if any. The interest expense is determined based on a negotiated rate above the current Federal Funds Rate.

9. In-Kind Transactions:

The consideration for the purchase of Creation Units of a fund generally consists of the in-kind deposit of a designated portfolio of equity securities, which constitutes an optimized representation of the securities involved in a relevant fund’s underlying index, and an amount of cash. Investors purchasing and redeeming Creation Units may pay a purchase transaction fee and a redemption transaction fee directly to the applicable fund, to offset transfer and other transaction costs associated with the issuance and redemption of Creation Units.

The in-kind transactions for the period ended June 30, 2013 were as follows:


	In-kind Purchases of Securities		In-kind Sales of Securities

Schwab U.S. TIPS ETF		$90,772,375		$91,533,620
Schwab Short-Term U.S. Treasury ETF		127,700,215		44,356,749
Schwab Intermediate-Term U.S. Treasury ETF		71,466,947		65,855,951
Schwab U.S. Aggregate Bond ETF		9,331,602		5,508,897

For the period ended June 30, 2013, certain funds realized net capital gains or losses resulting from in-kind redemptions of Creation Units. Because such gains or losses are not taxable to the funds and are not distributed to existing fund shareholders, the gains or losses are reclassified from accumulated net realized gains or losses to capital received from investors at the end of the funds’ tax year. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset values per share. The net realized in-kind gains or losses for the period ended June 30, 2013 are disclosed in the funds’ Statements of Operations.

10. Federal Income Taxes

Capital loss carryforwards may be used to offset future realized capital gains for federal income tax purposes. As of December 31, 2012, the following funds had capital loss carryforwards available to offset future net capital gains before the expiration dates:

*		As a result of the passage of the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010, capital losses incurred after December 31, 2010 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 may increase the likelihood that the pre-enactment capital losses may 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.

For tax purposes, realized net capital losses and late-year ordinary losses incurred after October 31 may be deferred and treated as occurring on the first day of the following fiscal year. For the year ended December 31, 2012, the funds had capital losses deferred as follows:

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

authorized participant (AP) A large institutional investor that places orders for creation units with the funds’ distributor.

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. TIPS Index (Series-L) A rules-based, market value-weighted index that tracks inflation-protected securities issued by the U.S. Treasury that have at least one year remaining to maturity, are rated investment grade and have $250 million or more of outstanding face value.

Barclays U.S. 7 − 10 Year Treasury Bond Index An index that measures the performance of U.S. Treasury securities that have a remaining maturity of between 7 and 10 years.

bid The price at which someone is willing to buy a security.

bond A security representing a loan from the investor to the issuer. A bond typically pays interest at a fixed rate (the “coupon rate”) until a specified date (the “maturity date”), at which time the issuer returns the money borrowed (“principal” or “face value”) to the bondholder. Because of their structure, bonds are sometimes called “fixed income securities” or “debt securities.”

call An early repayment of a bond’s principal by the issuer, usually done because the issuer is able to refinance its bond debt at a lower rate.

call protection A term used in reference to a bond that cannot be called by the issuer before maturity, or at least for many years from the present date. A bond that offers call protection can more reliably be expected to provide a given yield over a given number of years than a bond that could be called (assuming both bonds are of the same credit quality).

capital gain, capital loss The difference between the amount paid for an investment and its value at a later time. If the investment has been sold, the capital gain or loss is considered a realized gain or loss. If the investment is still held, the gain or loss is still “on paper” and is considered unrealized.

commencement of operations The date that the first NAV was calculated.

coupon, coupon rate The annual rate of interest paid until maturity by the issuer of a debt security.

creation unit (C.U.) A basket of securities that is delivered by an authorized participant (AP) to the fund equal to the current holdings of the ETF, plus a designated cash component.

credit quality The capacity of an issuer to make its interest and principal payments; an assessment typically rendered by an independent third-party organization.

credit risk The risk that a bond issuer may be unable to pay interest or principal to its bondholders.

exchange A marketplace, or any organization or group that provides or maintains a marketplace for trading securities, options, futures, or commodities.

expense ratio The amount that is taken from the fund’s assets each year to cover the operating expenses. An expense ratio of 0.50% means that a fund’s expenses amount to half of one percent of its average net assets a year.

face value The value of a bond, note, mortgage or other security as given on the certificate or instrument. Face value is also referred to as par value or nominal value.

inception date The date that the shares began trading in the secondary market.

indicative optimized portfolio value (IOPV) A calculation disseminated by the stock exchange that approximates the fund’s NAV every 15 seconds throughout the trading day.

interest Payments to bondholders (usually made twice a year) as compensation for loaning the bond principal to the issuer.

liquidity The ability to convert a security or asset quickly into cash.

market price return The return based on the change in market price per share of the fund over a given time period. Market price returns assume that dividends and capital gain distributions have been reinvested in the fund at market price.

maturity The maturity of a bond will generally be determined using a portfolio security’s final maturity date (date on which the final principal payment of a bond is scheduled to be paid); however, for securitized products, such as mortgage-backed securities and certain other asset-backed securities, maturity will be determined on an average life basis (weighted average time to receipt of all principal payments) by the investment adviser. Because pre-payment rates of individual mortgage pools vary widely, the average life of a particular pool cannot be predicted precisely. For securities with embedded demand

features, such as puts or calls, either the demand date or the final maturity date will be used depending on interest rates, yields and other market conditions. The average portfolio maturity of a fund is dollar-weighted based upon the market value of a fund’s securities at the time of the calculation.

mortgage-backed securities Bond or other debt securities that represent ownership in a pool of mortgage loans.

net asset value (NAV) The value of one share of a fund. NAV is calculated by taking the fund’s total assets, subtracting liabilities, and dividing by the number of shares outstanding.

NAV return The return based on the change in NAV of the fund over a given time period. NAV returns assume that dividends and capital gain distributions have been reinvested in the fund.

offer (ask) The lowest price at which an individual is willing to sell a security.

open The price at which a security opened for trading on a given day.

outstanding shares, shares outstanding When speaking of the fund, indicates all shares currently held by investors.

prepayment risk The risk that a mortgage-backed security may be paid off early, typically because interest rates have fallen and the homeowners who hold the underlying mortgages have refinanced those mortgages at lower rates. In this type of situation, the investor who held the mortgage-backed security will usually have to settle for a lower rate when reinvesting the principal.

primary market The market that deals with the issuance of new securities.

replication If a fund uses a full replication method, the fund will invest substantially all of its assets proportionately in the securities included in the underlying index.

sampling If a fund uses a sampling method, the fund will not fully replicate the underlying index and may hold securities not included in the index. A fund that utilizes a sampling approach may not track the return of the index as closely as a fund that uses a full replication method.

secondary market The market in which investors purchase securities from other investors rather than directly from the issuing companies. Organized exchanges facilitate the trading of securities in the secondary market.

spread The gap between bid and ask prices of a security.

total return The percentage that an investor would have earned or lost on an investment in the fund assuming dividends and distributions were reinvested.

tracking error The difference between the performance of the fund and its benchmark index, positive or negative.

Treasury inflation protected security (TIPS) A United States Treasury bond whose principal increases at the same rate as the Consumer Price Index (CPI).The interest payment is then calculated off that inflated (adjusted) principal and repaid at maturity.

weighted average For mutual funds or ETFs, an average that gives the same weight to each security as the security represents in the fund’s portfolio.

yield The income paid out by an investment, expressed as a percentage of the investment’s market value.

yield to maturity The annualized rate of return a bondholder could expect if the bond were held to maturity. In addition to interest payments, yield to maturity also factors in any difference between a bond’s current price and its principal amount, or face value.
