1 | Since ETFs are baskets of securities that trade on a stock exchange, ETF performance must be shown based on both a market price and NAV basis. 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. | |

2 Schwab U.S. REIT ETF
From the President
Marie Chandoha is President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. and the fund covered in this report.
Dear Shareholder,
As President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc., I’d like to thank you for trusting us to help you meet your investment goals, and for reading this annual report about the Schwab U.S. REIT ETF. This fund is designed to track the Dow Jones U.S. Select REIT Index, while providing the benefits of an ETF, including transparency, intraday trading, and potential tax efficiency.
Turning to the 12-month reporting period ended February 28, 2014, the fund’s returns were in line with the 6.2% total return of the index. U.S. REITs fared well early in the reporting period, helped by generally improving property fundamentals and rising occupancy rates. However, these securities declined shortly thereafter amid concern that the Federal Reserve would announce plans to “taper” its stimulative economic policies. Market sentiment shifted yet again in early 2014, with U.S. REITs rallying amid healthy operating results and generally solid earnings reports, in spite of the Fed beginning to taper its policies.
Within this environment, the performance of U.S. REITs varied considerably from one sub-industry to another. Hotel and Resort REITs were some of the better performers and generated positive overall returns. By comparison, Health Care REITs were some of the worst performers, producing negative overall returns.

Schwab U.S. REIT ETF 5
Schwab U.S. REIT ETF™
The Schwab U.S. REIT ETF (the fund) seeks to track as closely as possible, before fees and expenses, the total return of the Dow Jones U.S. Select REIT Index (the index). The index is a float-adjusted market capitalization-weighted index comprised of real estate investment trusts (REITs). The index generally includes REITs that own and operate income-producing commercial and/or residential real estate, derive at least 75% of the REIT’s total revenue from the ownership and operation of real estate assets, and have a minimum total market capitalization of $200 million at the time of its inclusion. For more information concerning the fund’s investment objective, strategies, and risks, please see the fund’s prospectus.
For the 12-month reporting period ended February 28, 2014, the fund closely tracked the index. The fund’s market price return was 5.98% and its NAV return was 6.08% (for an explanation of the market price and NAV returns, please refer to footnote 2 on the following page). The index returned 6.20% for the same period. Differences between the return of the fund and the return of the index may be attributable to, among other things, the trading and management costs incurred by the fund and not the index.
Market Highlights. U.S. REITs generated moderate returns for the 12-month reporting period. Concerns about the potential for the Federal Reserve to “taper” its stimulative economic policies, worries about higher U.S. interest rates, and relatively sluggish economic growth kept REITs from rallying as sharply as the broader stock market. Within the index, Hotel and Resort REITs outperformed other sub-industries for the period, while the only sub-industry that generated negative overall returns was Health Care REITs.
Contributors and Detractors. Residential REITs, which include companies or trusts that are involved with residential properties such as multifamily homes, apartments, and student housing were the biggest contributors to the fund’s total return. Residential REITs represented an average weight of approximately 18% of the fund for the reporting period, and returned approximately 7%. One significant contributor in this sub-industry was Equity Residential, a real estate investment trust that acquires, develops, and manages apartment complexes. The fund’s Equity Residential holdings returned approximately 10% for the 12-month reporting period.
Hotel and Resort REITs, which represented an average weight of approximately 6% of the fund, also provided a meaningful total return contribution. The fund’s Hotel and Resort REITs returned approximately 23%, reflecting the overall performance of companies or trusts engaged in activities involving hotel and resort properties. One significant contributor in this sub-industry was Host Hotels and Resorts, which holds controlling interests in upscale hotel lodging properties. The fund’s Host Hotels and Resorts holdings returned roughly 21%.
Health Care REITs were the biggest detractors from the fund’s total return. Health Care REITs include companies or trusts that are engaged in activities concerning properties that serve the health care industry, including assisted living properties, hospitals, and nursing homes. Health Care REITs represented an average weight of approximately 15% of the fund for the reporting period, and returned approximately -10%. One significant detractor within this sub-industry was HCP, Inc., which invests in properties throughout the U.S. that are related to the Health Care sub-industry. The fund’s HCP, Inc. holdings returned approximately -17%.
Industrial REITs, which represented an average weight of approximately 6% of the fund for the 12-month reporting period, returned roughly 11%, and were relatively weak contributors to the fund’s total return as compared to other sub-industries. Industrial REITs include companies or trusts that are involved in the acquisition, development, ownership, leasing, management, and operation of industrial properties. One limited contributor within this sub-industry was EastGroup Properties, Inc., which acquires and develops industrial properties in the U.S. The fund’s EastGroup Properties, Inc. holdings returned approximately 13%.

Fund Expenses (Unaudited)
Examples for a $1,000 Investment
As a fund shareholder, you may 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 the 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 September 1, 2013 and held through February 28, 2014.
Actual Return line in the table below provides 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 the fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period.”
Hypothetical Return line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the 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 brokerage commissions you may pay when purchasing or selling shares of the fund. Therefore, the hypothetical return line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

1. Business Structure of the Fund
Schwab U.S. REIT ETF 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 operational funds in the trust as of the end of the period, including the fund discussed in this report, which is highlighted:

The fund issues and redeems shares at its net assets 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 fund 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).
The fund maintains its own account for purposes of holding assets and accounting, and is considered a separate entity for tax purposes. Within its account, the fund may also keep certain assets in segregated accounts, as required by securities law.
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the fund uses in its preparation of financial statements. The accounting policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
For more information about the underlying funds’ operations and policies, please refer to those funds’ semiannual and annual reports, which are filed with the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
(a) Security Valuation:
Under procedures approved by the fund’s 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 fund to utilize independent pricing services, quotations from securities and financial instrument dealers and other market sources to determine fair value.
The fund values the securities in its portfolio every business day. The fund uses the following policies to value various types of securities:
• | Securities traded on an exchange or over-the-counter: Traded securities are valued at the closing value for the day, or, on days when no closing value has been reported, at halfway between the most recent bid and ask quotes. Securities that are primarily traded on foreign exchanges are valued at the official closing price or the last sales price on the exchange where the securities are principally traded with these values then translated into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rate, unless these securities are fair valued as discussed below. | |
• | Securities for which no quoted value is available: The Board has adopted procedures to fair value the fund’s securities when market prices are not “readily available” or are unreliable. For example, a fund may fair value a security when it is de-listed or its trading is halted or suspended; when a security’s primary pricing source is unable or unwilling to provide a |

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
price; or when a security’s primary trading market is closed during regular market hours. The fund makes fair value determinations in good faith in accordance with the fund’s valuation procedures. The Pricing Committee considers a number of factors, including unobservable market inputs when arriving at fair value. The Pricing Committee may employ techniques such as the review of related or comparable assets or liabilities, related market activities, recent transactions, market multiples, book values, transactional back-testing, disposition analysis and other relevant information. The Pricing Committee regularly reviews these inputs and assumptions to calibrate the valuations. Due to the subjective and variable nature of fair value pricing, there can be no assurance that the 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 fund pursuant to the valuation procedures. |
• | 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 fund discloses the fair value of its investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (Level 3 measurements). If 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 fund determines that either the volume and/or level of activity for an asset or liability has significantly decreased (from normal conditions for that asset or liability) or price quotations or observable inputs are not associated with orderly transactions, increased analysis and management judgment will be required to estimate fair value.
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
• | Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical securities — Investments whose values are based on quoted market prices in active markets, and whose values are therefore classified as Level 1 prices, include active listed equities and ETFs. Investments in mutual funds are valued daily at their NAV, and investments in ETFs are valued daily at the last reported sale price or the official closing price, 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 fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) — Investments whose values are classified as Level 3 prices have significant unobservable inputs, as they may trade infrequently or not at all. When observable prices are not available for these securities, the fund uses one or more valuation techniques for which sufficient and reliable data is available. The inputs used by the fund in estimating the value of Level 3 prices may include the original transaction price, quoted prices for similar securities or assets in active markets, completed or pending third-party transactions in the underlying investment or comparable issuers, and changes in financial ratios or cash flows. Level 3 prices may also be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, with the amount of such discount estimated by the fund in the absence of market information. Assumptions used by the fund due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting fair value and therefore the fund’s results of operations. |
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Financial Notes (continued)
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
The levels associated with valuing the fund’s investments as of February 28, 2014 are disclosed in the Portfolio Holdings.
(b) Accounting Policies for certain Portfolio Investments (if held):
Securities Lending: Under the trust’s Securities Lending Program, the fund (lender) may make short-term loans of its securities to another party (borrower) to generate additional revenue for the fund. The borrower pledges collateral in the form of cash, securities issued or fully guaranteed by the U.S. government or foreign governments, or letters of credit issued by a bank. Collateral at the individual loan level is required to have a value of at least 102% of the prior day’s market value of the loaned securities for securities traded on U.S. exchanges and a value of at least 105% for all other securities and is marked to market daily. The lending agent provides the fund with indemnification against borrower default. The fund bears the risk of loss with respect to the investment of cash collateral. 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 the fund’s Statement of Operations, if applicable, represents the income earned from the investment of the cash collateral plus any fees paid by borrowers, less the fees paid to the lending agent and broker rebates which are subject to adjustments pursuant to the securities lending agreement. On loans not collateralized by cash, a fee is received from the borrower, and is allocated between the fund and the lending agent. Costs and expenses, including agent fees, associated with securities lending activities under the trust’s Securities Lending Program paid to the unaffiliated lending agent are approximately 15% of the gross lending revenues.
As of February 28, 2014, the fund did not have any securities on loan.
(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.
(d) Real Estate Investment Trusts:
The fund invests in real estate investment trusts (REITs) which report information on the source of their distributions annually. Certain distributions received from REITs during the year, which are known to be a return of capital or realized gains, are recorded as a reduction to the cost of the individual REITs or as realized gains on investments, respectively.
(e) Investment Income:
Interest income is recorded as it accrues. Dividends and distributions from portfolio securities and underlying funds are recorded on the date they are effective (the ex-dividend date), although the fund records certain foreign security dividends on the day it learns of the ex-dividend date. Any distributions from underlying funds are recorded in accordance with the character of the distributions as designated by the underlying funds.
(f) Expenses:
Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement (“Advisory Agreement”) between Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (“CSIM” or the “investment adviser”) and the trust, the investment adviser will pay the operating expenses of the 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 the fund are charged directly to the fund.
(g) Distributions to Shareholders:
The fund generally makes distributions from net investment income, if any, quarterly and from net realized capital gains, if any, once a year.
(h) Accounting Estimates:
The accounting policies described in this report conform to GAAP. Notwithstanding this, shareholders should understand that in order to follow these principles, fund management has to make estimates and assumptions that affect the information reported in the financial statements. It’s possible that once the results are known, they may turn out to be different from these estimates and these differences may be material.
17
Schwab U.S. REIT ETF
Financial Notes (continued)
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
(i) Federal Income Taxes:
The fund intends to meet federal income and excise tax requirements for regulated investment companies. Accordingly, the fund distributes substantially all of its net investment income and realized net capital gains, if any, to its respective shareholders each year. As long as the fund meets the tax requirements, it is not required to pay federal income tax.
(j) Indemnification:
Under the fund’s organizational documents, the officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the fund. In addition, in the normal course of business the fund enters into contracts with its vendors and others that provide general indemnifications. The fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the fund. However, based on experience, the fund expects the risk of loss attributable to these arrangements to be remote.
3. Risk Factors:
Investing in the fund may involve certain risks, as discussed in the fund’s prospectus, including, but not limited to, those described below. Any of these risks could cause an investor to lose money.
Market Risk. Stock and bond markets and the values of securities held by the fund rise and fall daily. As with any investment whose performance is tied to these markets, the value of an investment in the fund will fluctuate, which means that the investors could lose money.
Investment Style Risk. The fund is not actively managed. Therefore, the fund follows the securities included in the index during upturns as well as downturns. Because of its indexing strategy, the fund does not take steps to reduce market exposure or to lessen the effects of a declining market. In addition, because of the fund’s expenses, the fund’s performance is normally below that of the index.
Equity Risk. The prices of equity securities rise and fall daily. These price movements may result from factors affecting individual companies, industries or the securities market as a whole. In addition, equity markets tend to move in cycles, which may cause stock prices to fall over short or extended periods of time.
Large-Cap Risk. The fund will invest in large-cap segments of the U.S. stock market. Large-cap stocks tend to go in and out of favor based on market and economic conditions. During a period when large-cap U.S. stocks fall behind other types of investments — mid- or small-cap stocks, for instance — the fund’s large-cap holdings could reduce performance.
Small- and Mid-Cap Risk. REITs and other real estate companies may be small- to medium- sized companies in relation to the equity markets as a whole. Historically, mid- and small-cap stocks have been riskier than large-cap stocks. Mid- and small-cap companies themselves may be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic events than larger, more established companies. Stock prices of smaller companies may be based in substantial part on future expectations rather than current achievements and may move sharply, especially during market upturns and downturns. During a period when mid- and small-cap stocks fall behind other types of investments — bonds or large-cap stocks, for instance — the fund’s small- and mid-cap holdings could reduce performance.
REITs Risk. In addition to the risks associated with investing in securities of real estate companies and real estate related companies, REITs are subject to certain additional risks. Equity REITs may be affected by changes in the value of the underlying properties owned by the trusts. Further, REITs are dependent upon specialized management skills and may have their investments in relatively few properties, or in a small geographic area or a single property type. Failure of a company to qualify as a REIT under federal tax law may have adverse consequences to the fund. In addition, REITs have their own expenses, and the fund will bear a proportionate share of those expenses.
Real Estate Investment Risk. The fund has a policy of concentrating its investments in real estate companies and companies related to the real estate industry. As such, the fund is subject to risks associated with the direct ownership of real estate securities and an investment in the fund will be closely linked to the performance of the real estate markets. These risks include, among others, declines in the value of real estate; risks related to general and local economic conditions; possible lack of availability of mortgage funds or other limits to accessing the credit or capital markets; defaults by borrowers or tenants, particularly during an economic downturn; and changes in interest rates.

Financial Notes (continued)
3. Risk Factors (continued):
Tracking Error Risk. As an index fund, the fund seeks to track the performance of its benchmark index, although it may not be successful in doing so. The divergence between the performance of the fund and its benchmark index, positive or negative, is called “tracking error.” Tracking error can be caused by many factors and it may be significant.
Non-Diversification Risk. The fund is non-diversified, which means that it may invest in securities of relatively few issuers. As a result, a single adverse economic, political or regulatory occurrence may have a more significant effect on the fund’s investments, and the fund may experience increased volatility.
Derivatives Risk. The fund may invest in derivative instruments. The principal types of derivatives the fund may use are futures contracts. A futures contract is an agreement to buy or sell a financial instrument at a specific price on a specific day. The fund’s use of derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. Certain of these risks, such as market risk and liquidity risk, are discussed elsewhere in this section. The fund’s use of derivatives is also subject to leverage risk, credit risk, lack of availability risk, valuation risk, correlation risk and tax risk. Leverage risk is the risk that use of derivatives may magnify the effect of any decrease or increase in the value of the fund’s portfolio securities. Credit risk is the risk that the counterparty to a derivative transaction may not fulfill its contractual obligations. Lack of availability risk is the risk that suitable derivative transactions may not be available in all circumstances for risk management or other purposes. Valuation risk is the risk that a particular derivative may be valued incorrectly. Correlation risk is the risk that changes in the value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index. Tax risk is the risk that the use of derivatives may cause the fund to realize higher amounts of short-term capital gain. These risks could cause the fund to lose more than the principal amount invested.
Concentration Risk. To the extent that the fund’s or the index’s portfolio is concentrated in the securities of issuers in a particular market, industry, group of industries, sector or asset class (including the real estate industry, as described above), the fund may be adversely affected by the performance of those securities, may be subject to increased price volatility and may be more susceptible to adverse economic, market, political or regulatory occurrences affecting that market, industry, group of industries, sector or asset class.
Liquidity Risk. A particular investment may be difficult to purchase or sell. The fund may be unable to sell illiquid securities at an advantageous time or price.
Securities Lending Risk. 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.
Market Trading Risk. 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.
Shares of the Fund May Trade at Prices Other Than NAV. 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 the 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. (See “Frequency Distribution of Discounts and Premiums” in the “Other Information” section of this report for an overview showing the frequency at which the daily closing price was at a discount or a premium to the fund’s daily NAV.)
Lack of Government Insurance or Guarantee. An investment in the 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 fund’s prospectus for a more complete description of the principal risks of investing in the fund.

4. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions (continued):
Certain Schwab funds may own shares of other Schwab Funds. As of February 28, 2014, the percentage of outstanding shares of the fund owned by other Schwab funds is less than 1.0% for each fund.
Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, the fund may enter into interfund borrowing and lending transactions with other Schwab Funds including Schwab ETFs. All loans are for temporary or emergency purposes only. The interest rate to be charged on a loan is the average of the overnight repurchase agreement rate and the short-term bank loan rate. The interfund lending facility is subject to the oversight and periodic review of the Board. The fund had no interfund borrowing or lending activity during the period.
5. Other Service Providers:
SEI Investments Distribution Co. is the principal underwriter and distributor of shares of the fund.
State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”) serves as the fund’s transfer agent. As part of these services, the transfer agent maintains records pertaining to the sale, redemption and transfer of the fund’s shares.
State Street also serves as custodian and accountant for the fund. The custodian is responsible for the daily safekeeping of securities and cash held by the fund. The fund’s accountant maintains all books and records related to the fund’s transactions.
6. Board of Trustees:
The Board may include people who are officers and/or directors of CSIM 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 fund has access to custodian overdraft facilities and to an uncommitted line of credit of $100 million with State Street. The fund pays interest on the amounts it borrows at rates that are negotiated periodically.
There were no borrowings from the line of credit by the fund during the period. However, the fund may have utilized its overdraft facility and incurred interest expense, which is disclosed on the fund’s Statement of Operations, if any. The interest expense is determined based on a negotiated rate above the current Federal Funds Rate.
8. Purchases and Sales/Maturities of Investment Securities:
For the period ended February 28, 2014, purchases and sales/maturities of securities (excluding in-kind transactions and short-term obligations) were as follows:
Purchases of Securities | Sales/Maturities of Securities | |||||
$72,158,761 | $63,863,601 |
9. In-Kind Transactions:
The consideration for the purchase of Creation Units of the 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 are subject to a standard creation transaction fee and a standard redemption transaction fee paid to the custodian to offset transfer and other transaction costs associated with the issuance and redemption of Creation Units. Purchasers and redeemers of Creation Units for cash are subject to an additional variable charge paid to the fund that will offset the transaction costs to the fund of buying or selling portfolio securities. In addition, purchasers and redeemers of shares in Creation Units are responsible for payment of the costs of transferring securities to or out of the fund. From time to time, CSIM may cover the cost of any transaction fees when believed to be in the best interests of the fund.

9. In-Kind Transactions (continued):
The in-kind transactions for the period ended February 28, 2014 were as follows:
In-Kind Purchases of Securities | In-Kind Sales of Securities | |||||
$362,576,755 | $56,908,758 |
For the period ended February 28, 2014, the fund realized net capital gains or losses resulting from in-kind redemptions of Creation Units. Because such gains or losses are not taxable to the fund 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 fund’s 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 February 28, 2014 are disclosed in the fund’s Statement of Operations.
10. Federal Income Taxes
As of February 28, 2014, the components of distributable earnings on a tax-basis were as follows:
Schwab U.S. REIT ETF | ||||
Undistributed ordinary income | $1,612,310 | |||
Undistributed long-term capital gains | — | |||
Unrealized appreciation | 48,887,674 | |||
Unrealized depreciation | (9,699,975 | ) | ||
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) | 39,187,699 | |||
The primary difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation or unrealized depreciation of investments is the tax deferral of losses on wash sales.
Capital loss carryforwards may be used to offset future realized capital gains for federal income tax purposes. As of February 28, 2014, the fund had capital loss carryforwards of $876,325 with no expiration*.
* | 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 February 28, 2014, the fund had capital losses deferred in the amount of $740,055.
The tax-basis components of distributions paid during the current and prior fiscal years were:
Schwab U.S. REIT ETF | ||||
Current period distributions | ||||
Ordinary Income | $13,544,625 | |||
Long-term capital gains | — | |||
Prior period distributions | ||||
Ordinary Income | 8,847,056 | |||
Long-term capital gains | — |
Distributions paid to shareholders are based on net investment income and net realized gains determined on a tax basis, which may differ from net investment income and net realized gains for financial reporting purposes. These differences are due primarily to differing treatment for items such as short-term capital gains and losses, in-kind transactions, capital losses related to wash sales, and income on certain investments. The fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the year in which the net investment income and net realized gains are recorded by the fund for financial reporting purposes. The fund may also designate a portion of the amount paid to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for tax purposes.

Financial Notes (continued)
10. Federal Income Taxes (continued):
The permanent book and tax basis differences may result in reclassifications between components of net assets as required. The adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. As of February 28, 2014, the fund made the following reclassifications:
Schwab U.S. REIT ETF | ||||
Capital shares | $9,153,422 | |||
Undistributed net investment income | — | |||
Net realized gains and losses | (9,153,422 | ) |
For the period ended February 28, 2014, the fund reclassified $9,182,610 of non-taxable security gains and losses realized on the in-kind redemption of Creation Units (Note 9) as an increase or decrease to capital received from investors in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
As of February 28, 2014, management has reviewed the tax positions for open periods (for federal purposes, three years from the date of filing and for state purposes, four years from the date of filing) as applicable to the fund, and has determined that no provision for income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements. The fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the period ended February 28, 2014, the fund did not incur any interest or penalties.
11. Subsequent Events:
Management has determined there are no subsequent events or transactions through the date the financial statements were issued that would have materially impacted the financial statements as presented.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of:
Schwab U.S. REIT ETF
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio holdings, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Schwab U.S. REIT ETF (one of the funds constituting Schwab Strategic Trust, hereafter referred to as the “Fund”) at February 28, 2014, and the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the periods presented, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Fund’s management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at February 28, 2014 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Investment Advisory Agreement Approval
The Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) requires that initial approval of, as well as the continuation of, a fund’s investment advisory agreement must be specifically approved (1) by the vote of the trustees or by a vote of the shareholders of the fund, and (2) by the vote of a majority of the trustees who are not parties to the investment advisory agreement or “interested persons” of any party (the “Independent Trustees”), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. In connection with such approvals, the fund’s trustees must request and evaluate, and the investment adviser is required to furnish, such information as may be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the investment advisory agreement.
The Board of Trustees (the “Board” or the “Trustees”, as appropriate) calls and holds a meeting each year that is dedicated, in part, to considering whether to renew the investment advisory agreement between Schwab Strategic Trust (the “Trust”) and Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (“CSIM”) (the “Agreement”) with respect to the existing funds in the Trust, including Schwab U.S. REIT ETF (the “Fund”), and to review certain other agreements pursuant to which CSIM provides investment advisory services to certain other registered investment companies. In preparation for the meeting, the Board requests and reviews a wide variety of materials provided by CSIM, including information about CSIM’s affiliates, personnel and operations. The Board also receives extensive data provided by third parties. This information is in addition to the detailed information about the Fund that the Board reviews during the course of each year, including information that relates to Fund operations and Fund performance. In addition, the Independent Trustees meet in executive session outside the presence of Fund management and participate in question and answer sessions with representatives of CSIM.
The Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, considered information specifically relating to its consideration of the continuance of the Agreement with respect to the Fund at a meeting held on September 4, 2013, and approved the renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Fund for an additional one year term. The Board’s approval of the Agreement with respect to the Fund was based on consideration and evaluation of a variety of specific factors discussed at this meeting and at prior meetings, including:
1. | the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund under the Agreement, including the resources of CSIM and its affiliates dedicated to the Fund; |
2. | the Fund’s investment performance and how it compared to that of certain other comparable exchange-traded funds; |
3. | the Fund’s expenses and how those expenses compared to those of certain other comparable exchange-traded funds; |
4. | the profitability of CSIM and its affiliates, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (“Schwab”), with respect to the Fund, including both direct and indirect benefits accruing to CSIM and its affiliates; and |
5. | the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Fund grows and whether fee levels in the Agreement reflect those economies of scale for the benefit of Fund investors. |
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Board considered the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by CSIM to the Fund and the resources of CSIM and its affiliates dedicated to the Fund. In this regard, the Trustees evaluated, among other things, CSIM’s personnel, experience, track record and compliance program. The Trustees also considered Schwab’s wide range of products, services, and channel alternatives such as free advice, investment research tools and Internet access and an array of account features that benefit the Fund and its shareholders. The Trustees also considered Schwab’s excellent reputation as a full service brokerage firm and its overall financial condition. Finally, the Trustees considered that the vast majority of the Fund’s shareholders are also brokerage clients of Schwab. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the nature, extent and quality of services provided by CSIM to the Fund and the resources of CSIM and its affiliates dedicated to the Fund supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Fund.
Fund Performance. The Board considered the Fund’s performance in determining whether to renew the Agreement with respect to the Fund. Specifically, the Trustees considered the Fund’s performance relative to a peer category of other exchange-traded funds and appropriate indices/benchmarks, in light of total return, yield, if applicable, and market trends. As part of this review, the Trustees considered the composition of the peer category, selection criteria and the reputation of the third party who prepared the peer category analysis. In evaluating the performance of the Fund, the Trustees considered both risk and shareholder risk expectations for the Fund. The Trustees further considered the level of Fund performance in the context of its review of Fund expenses and adviser profitability discussed below. Following such evaluation the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the performance of the Fund supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Fund.
Fund Expenses. With respect to the Fund’s expenses, the Trustees considered the rate of compensation called for by the Agreement, and the Fund’s operating expense ratio, in each case, in comparison to those of other comparable exchange-traded funds, such peer groups and comparisons
25
having been selected and calculated by an independent third party. The Trustees also considered fees charged by CSIM to mutual funds that it manages. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the expenses of the Fund are reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Fund.
Profitability. With regard to profitability, the Trustees considered the compensation flowing to CSIM and its affiliates, directly or indirectly. In this connection, the Trustees reviewed management’s profitability analyses. The Trustees also considered any other benefits derived by CSIM from its relationship with the Fund, such as whether, by virtue of its management of the Fund, CSIM obtains investment information or other research resources that aid it in providing advisory services to other clients. The Trustees considered whether the varied levels of compensation and profitability with respect to the Fund under the Agreement and other service agreements were reasonable and justified in light of the quality of all services rendered to the Fund by CSIM and its affiliates. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the profitability of CSIM is reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Fund.
Economies of Scale. The Trustees considered the existence of any economies of scale and whether those are passed along to the Fund’s shareholders by way of the relatively low advisory fee and unitary fee structure of the Fund. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the Fund obtains reasonable benefit from economies of scale.
In the course of their deliberations, the Trustees did not identify any particular information or factor that was all important or controlling. Based on the Trustees’ deliberation and their evaluation of the information described above, the Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, approved the continuation of the Agreement with respect to the Fund and concluded that the compensation under the Agreement with respect to the Fund is fair and reasonable in light of such services and expenses and such other matters as the Trustees have considered to be relevant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment.

With a weighted median (the type that is calculated for this fund), half of the fund’s assets are invested in stocks that are larger than the median market cap, and half in stocks that are smaller.
MSCI EAFE (Europe, Australasia, Far East) Index A free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed markets, excluding the U.S. & Canada. The Net version of the index reflects reinvested dividends net of withholding taxes, but reflects no deductions for expenses or other taxes; returns are calculated applying dividend withholding rates applicable to non-resident persons who do not benefit from double taxation treaties.
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.
price-to-book ratio (P/B) The market price of a company’s stock compared with its “book value.” A mutual fund’s P/B is the weighted average of the P/B of all stocks in the fund’s portfolio.
price-to-earnings ratio (P/E) The market price of a company’s stock compared with earnings over the past year. A mutual fund’s P/E is the weighted average of the P/E of all stocks in the fund’s portfolio.
primary market The market that deals with the issuance of new securities.
real estate investment trust (REIT) A real estate company that owns and commonly operates income producing commercial and/or residential real estate.
S&P 500 Index A market capitalization index that is designed to measure the performance of 500 leading publicly held companies in leading industries of the U.S. economy.
sampling If a fund uses a sampling method, the fund will not fully replicate the benchmark 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.
29
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.
stock A share of ownership, or equity, in the issuing company.
total return The percentage that an investor would have earned or lost on an investment in the fund assuming dividends and distributions were reinvested.
tracking error The difference between the performance of the fund and its benchmark index, positive or negative.

1 | Since ETFs are baskets of securities that trade on a stock exchange, ETF performance must be shown based on both a market price and NAV basis. 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. NAV is used as a proxy for purposes of calculating Market Price Return on inception date. 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 annual report about the new Schwab Fundamental Index ETFs. We launched these funds on August 15, 2013, and we are excited to offer six additional “core” investment solutions as a way to help investors diversify their portfolios.
Fundamentally weighted strategies have enjoyed significant asset growth in recent years, as investors have embraced the value of alternative strategies to traditional index funds. Unlike traditional equity indices that are often weighted by market capitalization, fundamentally weighted indices select and weight stocks by objective non-price measures, such as dividends, cash flow, and sales. By using this weighting methodology, these new funds can serve as an effective complement to cap-weighted and actively managed investment vehicles, potentially helping shareholders create more attractive risk-adjusted portfolios. These core products also provide the benefits of an ETF, including transparency, intraday trading, and potential tax efficiency.
Turning to the reporting period ended February 28, 2014, the funds generated positive returns that were generally aligned with their respective indices. The environment for these returns included improvements in the U.S. economy, which supported stocks and led the Federal Reserve to begin “tapering” its policies aimed at stimulating economic growth. In developed overseas markets, the European Central Bank made progress toward unifying the euro zone’s banking system and kept interest rates low to support economic growth, propping up equities in these markets. Meanwhile, select emerging markets

faced concerns about potentially higher U.S. interest rates and political unrest, reducing stock returns from these markets. Reflecting these conditions, returns for the indices tracked by the funds ranged from 15.0% for the Russell Fundamental U.S. Small Company Index to a 0.2% return for the Russell Fundamental Emerging Markets Large Company Index.* The performance of international currencies versus the U.S. dollar also played a role in these results, with European currencies generally strengthening and enhancing returns, while emerging market currencies generally depreciated and reduced returns.

Schwab Fundamental Index ETFs 5
Schwab Fundamental U.S. Broad Market Index ETF
The Schwab Fundamental U.S. Broad Market Index ETF (the fund) seeks to track as closely as possible, before fees and expenses, the total return of the Russell Fundamental U.S. Index (the index). This index measures the performance of the companies by fundamental overall company scores that are created using the universe the companies in Russell 3000® Index. To pursue its investment objective, the fund invests in a representative sample of the securities included in the index that collectively has a similar investment profile to the index. Due to the use of representative sampling, the fund may not hold all of the securities in the index.
For the reporting period ended February 28, 2014, the fund closely tracked the index. The fund’s market price return was 10.35% and its NAV return was 10.47% (for an explanation of the market price and NAV returns, please refer to footnote 2 on the following page). The index returned 10.71% during the same period. Differences between the return of the fund and the return of the index may be attributable to, among other things, the trading and management costs incurred by the fund and not the index.
Market Highlights. Stocks of U.S. companies performed well for the reporting period, with many major stock market indices finishing at or near record highs. Overall improvements in the U.S. economy helped to make these results possible, as did the low interest rate environment that generally made financing more affordable for businesses and households. Within the index, stocks in the Industrials and Health Care sectors were some of the better performers, while stocks in the Telecommunication Services and Consumer Staples sectors underperformed by comparison.
Contributors and Detractors. The Industrials sector contributed the most to the index’s return, and to the return of the fund. The large average weight of this sector reflected part of the reason for this contribution, with Industrials stocks representing approximately 12% of the fund. The fund’s Industrials stocks performed well, returning roughly 17% and reflecting the overall performance of companies involved in aerospace and defense, construction and engineering, electrical equipment, machinery, transportation, and commercial and professional services. One significant contributor in this sector was General Electric Company, a globally diversified company involved in technology and financial services. General Electric Company holdings represented one of the fund’s largest positions in the Industrials sector and returned approximately 8%.
Health Care stocks, which represented an average weight of approximately 11% of the fund, also provided meaningful contributions to the fund’s total return. The fund’s Health Care stocks returned roughly 17%, reflecting the overall performance of companies involved in health care equipment, supplies, and technology. One example from this sector was McKesson Corporation, which distributes pharmaceuticals, medical and surgical supplies, and health-related products. The fund’s McKesson Corporation holdings returned approximately 44%.
The Telecommunication Services sector was the biggest overall detractor from the fund’s performance. The Telecommunication Services sector represented an average weight of approximately 3% of the fund, while returning roughly -3%. One example from this sector was AT&T, Inc., a communications holding company. The fund’s AT&T holdings represented the fund’s largest position in this sector and returned approximately -6%.
The Utilities sector generated positive returns for the fund, but was a weak overall contributor to the fund’s total return. The Utilities sector represented an average weight of approximately 4% of the fund and returned roughly 6%, reflecting the performance of companies that provide electric, gas, and water utilities, as well as independent power production. The fund’s holdings of FirstEnergy Corp., a public utility holding company, provided one example of a detractor within this sector, returning approximately -15%.

The fund’s market price return was 10.03% and its NAV return was 10.08% (for an explanation of the market price and NAV returns, please refer to footnote 2 on the following page). The index returned 10.27% during the same period. Differences between the return of the fund and the return of the index may be attributable to, among other things, the trading and management costs incurred by the fund and not the index.
Market Highlights. Stocks of large U.S. companies performed well for the reporting period, with many major stock market indices finishing at or near record highs. Overall improvements in the U.S. economy helped to make these results possible, as did the low interest rate environment that generally made financing more affordable for businesses and households. Within the index, stocks in the Industrials and Health Care sectors were some of the better performers, while stocks in the Telecommunication Services and Consumer Staples sectors underperformed by comparison.
Contributors and Detractors. The Health Care sector contributed the most to the return of the index, and to the return of the fund. The large average weight of this sector reflected part of the reason for this contribution, with Health Care stocks representing approximately 12% of the fund. The fund’s Health Care stocks returned roughly 16%, representing the performance of companies involved in health care equipment, supplies, and technology. One example of a contributor from this sector was McKesson Corporation, which distributes pharmaceuticals, medical and surgical supplies, and health-related products. The fund’s McKesson Corporation holdings returned approximately 44%.
Industrials stocks, which represented an average weight of approximately 11% of the fund, also provided meaningful contributions to the fund’s total return. The fund’s Industrials stocks also performed well, returning approximately 16% and reflecting the overall performance of companies involved in aerospace and defense, construction and engineering, electrical equipment, machinery, transportation, and commercial and professional services. One significant contributor in this sector was General Electric Company, a globally diversified company involved in technology and financial services. General Electric Company holdings represented the fund’s largest position in the Industrials sector and returned roughly 8%.
The Telecommunication Services sector was the biggest overall detractor from the fund’s performance. The Telecommunication Services sector represented an average weight of approximately 4% of the fund, while returning roughly -3%. One example from this sector was AT&T, Inc., a communications holding company. The fund’s AT&T holdings represented the fund’s largest position in this sector and returned approximately -6%.
The Utilities sector generated positive returns for the fund, but was a weak overall contributor to the fund’s total return. The Utilities sector represented an average weight of approximately 4% of the fund and returned roughly 6%, reflecting the performance of companies that provide electric, gas, and water utilities, as well as independent power production. The fund’s holdings of FirstEnergy Corp., a public utility holding company, provided one example of a detractor within this sector, returning approximately -15%.

Schwab Fundamental International Large Company Index ETF
The Schwab Fundamental International Large Company Index ETF (the fund) seeks to track as closely as possible, before fees and expenses, the total return of the Russell Fundamental Developed ex-U.S. Large Company Index* (the index). This index measures the performance of the large company size segment by fundamental overall company scores that are created using as the universe the companies in the Russell Developed ex-U.S. Index. To pursue its investment objective, the fund invests in a representative sample of the securities included in the index that collectively has a similar investment profile to the index. Due to the use of representative sampling, the fund may not hold all of the securities in the index.
For the reporting period ended February 28, 2014, the fund closely tracked the index. The fund’s market price return was 13.47% and its NAV return was 12.88% (for an explanation of the market price and NAV returns, please refer to footnote 2 on the following page). The index returned 13.16% during the same period. Differences between the return of the fund and the return of the index may be attributable to, among other things, the trading and management costs incurred by the fund and not the index.
Market Highlights. Stocks of large companies in developed international markets performed well, generating double-digit overall returns in U.S. dollar terms. Policies by central banks in many parts of the world to stimulate economic growth by keeping interest rates low provided an important support for these results, particularly in Europe. Efforts by the European Central Bank to unify the euro zone’s banking system and relative stability in the region also supported stocks. In addition, the appreciation of many developed market currencies versus the U.S. dollar enhanced returns in U.S. dollar terms.
Contributors and Detractors. U.K. stocks were some of the biggest contributors to the returns of both the index and the fund. U.K. companies represented an average weight of approximately 21% of the fund, and returned roughly 15% in U.S. dollar terms. One example from this market was BP plc, a company involved in oil and petrochemicals. BP plc holdings represented the fund’s largest position in U.K. stocks, and returned roughly 25% for the reporting period in U.S. dollar terms.
French stocks, which represented an average weight of approximately 12% for the fund, also provided meaningful contributions to the fund’s returns. Shares of companies from France returned roughly 19% for the fund in U.S. dollar terms. One example of a contributor from this market was Total S.A., a company involved in oil and natural gas. The fund’s holdings of Total S.A. returned approximately 23% in U.S. dollar terms, contributing more to the fund’s return than any other holding from France.
Although stocks from each developed international market held by the fund generated positive overall returns, stocks from Singapore provided one of the smallest contributions. Holdings in this country represented approximately 1% of the fund and returned roughly 1% in U.S. dollar terms. Holdings of Singapore Telecommunications Limited—a communications group—represented one of the biggest detractors for the fund in this market, returning approximately -3% in U.S. dollar terms.
Stocks from Hong Kong also generated a relatively small contribution to the fund’s returns. Shares of companies from Hong Kong represented an average weight of approximately 1% of the fund, and returned roughly 1% in U.S. dollar terms. One detractor within this market was Hong Kong & China Gas Company Limited, which produces, distributes, and markets gas and gas appliances. Hong Kong & China Gas Company Limited holdings represented one of the fund’s larger positions in this market and returned approximately -17% in U.S. dollar terms.

VTECH Holdings Limited—a consumer electronics company—provided one example of a detractor from this market, returning approximately -24% for the fund in U.S. dollar terms.

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.

Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets Large Company Index ETF
The Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets Large Company Index ETF (the fund) seeks to track as closely as possible, before fees and expenses, the total return of the Russell Fundamental Emerging Markets Large Company Index* (the index). This index measures the performance of the large company size segment by fundamental overall company scores that are created using as the universe the companies in the Russell Emerging Markets Index. To pursue its investment objective, the fund invests in a representative sample of the securities included in the index that collectively has a similar investment profile to the index. Due to the use of representative sampling, the fund may not hold all of the securities in the index.
For the reporting period ended February 28, 2014, the fund closely tracked the index. The fund’s market price return was 0.16% and its NAV return was 0.05% (for an explanation of the market price and NAV returns, please refer to footnote 2 on the following page). The index returned 0.19% during the same period. Differences between the return of the fund and the return of the index may be attributable to, among other things, the trading and management costs incurred by the fund and not the index.
Market Highlights. Large company stocks in emerging markets generated roughly flat overall returns in U.S. dollar terms. Stocks from the emerging markets of Brazil, Russia, India, China, and Turkey faced challenges that included potentially higher interest rates in the U.S. and uneven economic growth. Political unrest and relatively high inflation were also concerns among some emerging markets. In addition, many emerging market currencies depreciated in this environment, further reducing stock returns in U.S. dollar terms.
Contributors and Detractors. South Korean stocks contributed the most to the performance of the index and the fund. The large average weight of this market represented part of the reason for this contribution, with South Korean stocks representing approximately 22% of the fund. The fund’s South Korean stocks also outperformed most other emerging markets, returning roughly 7% in U.S. dollar terms. One example of a contributor among the fund’s South Korean stocks was Samsung Electronics Company, Limited, a communications equipment company. The fund’s holdings of Samsung Electronics Company, Limited represented the fund’s largest position in this market and returned approximately 10% in U.S. dollar terms.
Stocks from Taiwan also provided meaningful contributions to the fund’s returns. Taiwanese companies represented an average weight of approximately 13% of the fund, and returned roughly 7% in U.S. dollar terms. Hon Hai Precision Industry Company, which provides electronic manufacturing services, was one example of a contributor from among the fund’s Taiwanese stocks. Holdings of this company represented one of the fund’s largest positions in Taiwan and returned approximately 18% in U.S. dollar terms.
Brazilian stocks were some of the biggest overall detractors from the fund’s performance. Stocks from Brazil represented an average weight of approximately 14% of the fund, and returned roughly -8% in U.S. dollar terms. One example of a detractor from this market was Petroleo Brasileiro S.A., a multinational integrated oil company. Preferred shares of Petroleo Brasileiro S.A. represented one of the fund’s largest positions in this market and returned approximately -21% in U.S. dollar terms.
Stocks from China also meaningfully detracted from the fund’s returns. Chinese stocks represented an average weight of approximately 9% of the fund for the 12-month reporting period, while returning roughly -3.9% in U.S. dollar terms. Among the fund’s holdings in this market, Class H shares of China Construction Bank Corporation—a company that provides banking services to individuals and businesses—represented a relatively large position and detracted from the fund’s performance, returning approximately -11% in U.S. dollar terms.

Fund Expenses (Unaudited)
Examples for a $1,000 Investment
As a fund shareholder, you may 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 September 1, 2013 and held through February 28, 2014.
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 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 a 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 brokerage commissions you may pay when purchasing or selling shares of a fund. Therefore, the hypothetical return lines of the table are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

1. Business Structure of the Funds
Each of the funds 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 operational funds in the trust as of the end of the period, including the funds discussed in this report, which are highlighted:

The funds issue and redeem shares at their net assets 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).
The funds commenced operations on August 14, 2013.
Each fund maintains its own account for purposes of holding assets and accounting, and is considered a separate entity for tax purposes. Within its account, each fund may also keep certain assets in segregated accounts, as required by securities law.
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the funds use in their preparation of financial statements. The accounting policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
For more information about the underlying funds’ operations and policies, please refer to those funds’ semiannual and annual reports, which are filed with the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
(a) Security Valuation:
Under procedures approved by the 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:
• | Securities traded on an exchange or over-the-counter: Traded securities are valued at the closing value for the day, or, on days when no closing value has been reported, at halfway between the most recent bid and ask quotes. Securities that are primarily traded on foreign exchanges are valued at the official closing price or the last sales price on the exchange where the securities are principally traded with these values then translated into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rate, unless these securities are fair valued as discussed below. | |
• | Securities for which no quoted value is available: The Board has adopted procedures to fair value each fund’s securities when market prices are not “readily available” or are unreliable. For example, a fund may fair value a security when it is |
61

Financial Notes (continued)
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
de-listed or its trading is halted or suspended; when a security’s primary pricing source is unable or unwilling to provide a price; or when a security’s primary trading market is closed during regular market hours. Each fund makes fair value determinations in good faith in accordance with the fund’s valuation procedures. The Pricing Committee considers a number of factors, including unobservable market inputs when arriving at fair value. The Pricing Committee may employ techniques such as the review of related or comparable assets or liabilities, related market activities, recent transactions, market multiples, book values, transactional back-testing, disposition analysis and other relevant information. The Pricing Committee regularly reviews these inputs and assumptions to calibrate the valuations. 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. |
• | Futures contracts: Futures are valued at their settlement prices as of the close of their exchanges. | |
• | 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, ETFs and futures contracts. Investments in mutual funds are valued daily at their NAVs, and investments in ETFs are valued daily at the last reported sale price or the official closing price, 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. |

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
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 February 28, 2014 are disclosed in the Portfolio Holdings.
(b) Accounting Policies for certain Portfolio Investments (if held):
Futures Contracts: Futures contracts are instruments that represent an agreement between two parties that obligates one party to buy, and the other party to sell, specific instruments at an agreed upon price on a stipulated future date. A fund must give the broker a deposit of cash and/or securities (initial margin) whenever it enters into a futures contract. The amount of the deposit may vary from one contract to another. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or received by a fund depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the futures contract and are accounted for as unrealized gains or losses until the contract is closed, at which time the gains or losses are realized. Futures are traded publicly on exchanges, and their market value changes daily.
Securities Lending: Under the trust’s Securities Lending Program, a fund (lender) may make short-term loans of its securities to another party (borrower) to generate additional revenue for the fund. The borrower pledges collateral in the form of cash, securities issued or fully guaranteed by the U.S. government or foreign governments, or letters of credit issued by a bank. Collateral at the individual loan level is required to have a value of at least 102% of the prior day’s market value of the loaned securities for securities traded on U.S. exchanges and a value of at least 105% for all other securities and is marked to market daily. The lending agent provides the fund with indemnification against borrower default. The fund bears the risk of loss with respect to the investment of cash collateral. The cash collateral of securities loaned is invested in money market portfolios operating under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act. Securities lending income, as disclosed in a fund’s Statement of Operations, if applicable, represents the income earned from the investment of the cash collateral plus any fees paid by borrowers, less the fees paid to the lending agent and broker rebates which are subject to adjustments pursuant to the securities lending agreement. On loans not collateralized by cash, a fee is received from the borrower, and is allocated between the fund and the lending agent. Costs and expenses, including agent fees, associated with securities lending activities under the trust’s Securities Lending Program paid to the unaffiliated lending agent are approximately 15% of the gross lending revenues.
As of February 28, 2014, the funds did not have any securities on loan.
(c) Security Transactions:
Security transactions are recorded as of the date the order to buy or sell the security is executed. Realized gains and losses from security transactions are based on the identified costs of the securities involved.
Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are reported in U.S. dollars. For assets and liabilities held on a given date, the dollar value is based on market exchange rates in effect on that date. Transactions involving foreign currencies, including purchases, sales, income receipts and expense payments, are calculated using exchange rates in effect on the transaction date. Realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and the difference between the recorded amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from changes in foreign exchange rates on foreign denominated assets and liabilities other than investments in securities held at the end of the reporting period. These realized and unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses are reported in foreign currency transactions or translations on the Statement of Operations. The funds do not isolate the portion of the fluctuations on investments resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rates from the fluctuations in market prices of investments held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.
Gains realized by the funds on the sale of securities in certain foreign countries may be subject to non-U.S. taxes. In those instances, the funds record a liability based on unrealized gains to provide for potential non-U.S. taxes payable upon the sale of these securities.
When a fund closes out a futures position, it calculates the difference between the value of the position at the beginning and at the end of the contract, and records a realized gain or loss accordingly.

Schwab Fundamental Index ETFs
Financial Notes (continued)
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
(d) Investment Income:
Interest income is recorded as it accrues. Dividends and distributions from portfolio securities and underlying funds are recorded on the date they are effective (the ex-dividend date), although the funds record certain foreign security dividends on the day they learn of the ex-dividend date. Any distributions from underlying funds are recorded in accordance with the character of the distributions as designated by the underlying funds.
Income received from foreign sources may result in withholding tax. Withholding taxes are accrued at the same time as the related income if the tax is fixed and known, unless a tax withheld is reclaimable from the local tax authorities in which case it is recorded as receivable. If the tax rate is not known or estimable, such expense or reclaim receivable is recorded when the net proceeds are received.
(e) Expenses:
Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement (“Advisory 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:
Schwab Fundamental U.S. Broad Market Index ETF, Schwab Fundamental U.S. Large Company Index ETF, and Schwab Fundamental U.S. Small Company Index ETF generally make distributions from net investment income, if any, quarterly. Schwab Fundamental International Large Company Index ETF, Schwab Fundamental International Small Company Index ETF, and Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets Large Company Index ETF generally make distributions from net investment income, if any, annually. All funds generally make distributions from 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.
(i) Foreign Taxes:
The funds may be subject to foreign taxes (a portion of which may be reclaimable) on income, corporate events, foreign currency exchanges and capital gains on investments. All foreign taxes are recorded in accordance with the applicable foreign tax regulations and rates that exist in foreign markets in which the funds invest. These foreign taxes, if any, are paid by the funds and are disclosed in the Statement of Operations. Foreign taxes payable as of February 28, 2014, if any, are reflected in the funds’ Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
(j) Indemnification:
Under the funds’ organizational documents, the officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the funds. In addition, in the normal course of business the funds enter into contracts with their vendors and others that provide general indemnifications. The funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the funds. However, based on experience, the funds expect the risk of loss 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.
Market Risk. Stock markets rise and fall daily. As with any investment whose performance is tied to these markets, the value of the investment in a fund will fluctuate, which means that the investors could lose money.
Investment Style Risk. The funds are not actively managed. Therefore, a fund follows the securities included in an index during upturns as well as downturns. Because of their indexing strategies, the funds do not take steps to reduce market exposure or to lessen the effects of a declining market. In addition, because of a fund’s expenses, the fund’s performance is normally below that of the index.
Equity Risk. The prices of equity securities rise and fall daily. These price movements may result from factors affecting individual companies, industries or the securities market as a whole. In addition, equity markets tend to move in cycles, which may cause stock prices to fall over short or extended periods of time.
Large Cap Risk. Certain funds invest in large-cap stocks. Large-cap stocks tend to go in and out of favor based on market and economic conditions. During a period when large-cap U.S. stocks fall behind other types of investments — mid- or small-cap stocks, for instance — a fund’s large-cap holdings could reduce performance.
Mid-Cap Risk. Certain funds invest in mid-cap stocks. Mid-cap stocks tend to go in and out of favor based on market and economic conditions. Stocks of mid-cap companies may be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic events than larger, more established companies. During a period when mid-cap stocks fall behind other types of investments — bonds or large-cap stocks, for instance — a fund’s mid-cap holdings could reduce performance.
Small-Cap Risk. Certain funds invest in small-cap stocks. Historically, small-cap stocks have been riskier than large- and mid-cap stocks, and their prices may move sharply, especially during market upturns and downturns. Small-cap companies may be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic events than larger, more established companies. During a period when small-cap stocks fall behind other types of investments — large-cap and mid-cap stocks, for instance — a fund’s small-cap holdings could reduce performance.
Foreign Investment Risk. A fund’s investments in securities of foreign issuers may involve certain risks that are greater than those associated with investments in securities of U.S. issuers. These include risks of adverse changes in foreign economic, political, regulatory and other conditions; changes in currency exchange rates or exchange control regulations (including limitations on currency movements and exchanges); differing accounting, auditing, financial reporting and legal standards and practices; differing securities market structures; and higher transaction costs. These risks may be heightened in connection with investments in emerging markets. Foreign securities also include ADRs, GDRs, and EDRs, which are receipts issued by U.S. and foreign banks that represent shares of foreign-based corporations. Investment in ADRs, GDRs and EDRs may be less liquid than the underlying shares in their primary trading market and GDRs, many of which are issued by companies in emerging markets, may be more volatile. To the extent a fund’s investments in a single country or a limited number of countries represent a larger percentage of the fund’s assets, the fund’s performance may be adversely affected by the economic, political and social conditions in those countries and the fund may be subject to increased price volatility.
Emerging Markets Risk. Certain funds invest in emerging markets. Emerging markets may be more likely to experience political turmoil or rapid changes in market or economic conditions than more developed countries. Such countries often have less uniformity in accounting and reporting requirements and greater risk associated with the custody of securities. In addition, the financial stability of issuers (including governments) in emerging market countries may be more precarious than in other countries. As a result, there will tend to be an increased risk of price volatility associated with a fund’s investments in emerging market countries.
Sampling Index Tracking Risk. Certain funds 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. Because certain funds utilize a sampling approach they may not track the return of their respective index as well as they would if the funds purchased all of the securities in their respective benchmark index.
65
Schwab Fundamental Index ETFs
Financial Notes (continued)
3. Risk Factors (continued):
Tracking Error Risk. As an index fund, each fund seeks to track the performance of its benchmark index, although it may not be successful in doing so. The divergence between the performance of a fund and its benchmark index, positive or negative, is called “tracking error.” Tracking error can be caused by many factors and it may be significant.
Derivatives Risk. Each fund may invest in derivative instruments. The principal types of derivatives a fund may use are futures contracts. A futures contract is an agreement to buy or sell a financial instrument at a specific price on a specific day. A fund’s use of derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. Certain of these risks, such as market risk and liquidity risk, are discussed elsewhere in this section. A fund’s use of derivatives is also subject to leverage risk, credit risk, lack of availability risk, valuation risk, correlation risk and tax risk. Leverage risk is the risk that use of derivatives may magnify the effect of any decrease or increase in the value of the fund’s portfolio securities. Credit risk is the risk that the counterparty to a derivative transaction may not fulfill its contractual obligations. Lack of availability risk is the risk that suitable derivative transactions may not be available in all circumstances for risk management or other purposes. Valuation risk is the risk that a particular derivative may be valued incorrectly. Correlation risk is the risk that changes in the value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index. Tax risk is the risk that the use of derivatives may cause a fund to realize higher amounts of short-term capital gain. These risks could cause a fund to lose more than the principal amount invested.
Liquidity Risk. 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 Risk. 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.
Concentration Risk. To the extent that a fund’s or an index’s portfolio is concentrated in the securities of issuers in a particular market, industry, group of industries, sector or asset class, the fund may be adversely affected by the performance of those securities, may be subject to increased price volatility and may be more susceptible to adverse economic, market, political or regulatory occurrences affecting that market, industry, group of industries, sector or asset class.
Market Trading Risk. 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.
Shares of the Fund May Trade at Prices Other Than NAV. 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 a fund in the secondary market, and may receive less than NAV when they sell those shares in the secondary market. (See “Frequency Distribution of Discounts and Premiums” in the “Other Information” section of this report for an overview showing the frequency at which the daily closing price was at a discount or a premium to the funds’ daily NAV.)
Lack of Government Insurance or Guarantee. 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.
4. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions:
CSIM, a wholly owned subsidiary of The Charles Schwab Corporation, serves as each fund’s investment adviser pursuant to an Advisory Agreement between CSIM and the trust.

(a) | Commencement of operations. |
Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, the funds may enter into interfund borrowing and lending transactions with other Schwab Funds including Schwab ETFs. All loans are for temporary or emergency purposes only. The interest rate to be charged on a loan is the average of the overnight repurchase agreement rate and the short-term bank loan rate. The interfund lending facility is subject to the oversight and periodic review of the Board. The funds had no interfund borrowing or lending activity during the period.
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 CSIM 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 funds’ Statements of Operations, if any. The interest expense is determined based on a negotiated rate above the current Federal Funds Rate.

8. Derivatives:
The Schwab Fundamental U.S. Small Company Index ETF entered into equity index futures contracts (“futures”) during the report period. The fund invested in futures to equitize available cash. The fair value and variation margin for futures contracts held at February 28, 2014 are presented on the Portfolio Holdings and Statement of Assets and Liabilities, respectively. The net realized/unrealized gains (losses) on futures contracts are presented on the Statement of Operations. Refer to financial note 2(b) for the fund’s accounting policies with respect to futures contracts and financial note 3 for disclosures concerning the risks of investing in futures contracts. During the period, the month-end average contract values of futures contracts held by the fund was $16,884 and the month-end average number of contracts held was 1.
9. Purchases and Sales/Maturities of Investment Securities:
For the period ended February 28, 2014, purchases and sales/maturities of securities (excluding in-kind transactions and short-term obligations) were as follows:
Purchases of Securities | Sales/Maturities of Securities | |||||||
Schwab Fundamental U.S. Broad Market Index ETF | $2,255,754 | $1,654,514 | ||||||

Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets Large Company Index ETF | 18,266,671 | 883,159 |
10. 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 are subject to a standard creation transaction fee and a standard redemption transaction fee paid to the custodian to offset transfer and other transaction costs associated with the issuance and redemption of Creation Units. Purchasers and redeemers of Creation Units for cash are subject to an additional variable charge paid to the fund that will offset the transaction costs to the fund of buying or selling portfolio securities. In addition, purchasers and redeemers of shares in Creation Units are responsible for payment of the costs of transferring securities to or out of the fund. From time to time, CSIM may cover the cost of any transaction fees when believed to be in the best interests of the fund.
The in-kind transactions for the period ended February 28, 2014 were as follows:
In-Kind Purchases of Securities | In-Kind Sales of Securities | |||||||
Schwab Fundamental U.S. Broad Market Index ETF | $55,524,146 | $— | ||||||

For the period ended February 28, 2014, there were no in-kind redemptions. However, if the funds have such transactions, they will realize 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

Long-term capital gains | — | — | — | — | — | — |
Distributions paid to shareholders are based on net investment income and net realized gains determined on a tax basis, which may differ from net investment income and net realized gains for financial reporting purposes. These differences are due primarily to differing treatment for items such as short-term capital gains and losses, in-kind transactions, capital losses related to wash sales, and income on certain investments. The fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the year in which the net investment income and net realized gains are recorded by a fund for financial reporting purposes. A fund may also designate a portion of the amount paid to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for tax purposes.
The permanent book and tax basis differences may result in reclassifications between components of net assets as required. The adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. As of February 28, 2014, the funds made the following reclassifications:

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 February 28, 2014, the funds did not incur any interest or penalties.

A discount is the amount that a fund is trading below the reported NAV, expressed as a percentage of NAV. A premium is the amount that a fund is trading above the reported NAV, expressed as a percentage of NAV. The NAV of each Fund will fluctuate with changes in the market value of its portfolio holdings.

Investment Advisory Agreement Approval
The Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) requires that initial approval of, as well as the continuation of, a fund’s investment advisory agreement must be specifically approved (1) by the vote of the trustees or by a vote of the shareholders of the fund, and (2) by the vote of a majority of the trustees who are not parties to the investment advisory agreement or “interested persons” of any party (the “Independent Trustees”), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. In connection with such approvals, the fund’s trustees must request and evaluate, and the investment adviser is required to furnish, such information as may be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the investment advisory agreement.
The Board of Trustees (the “Board” or the “Trustees”, as appropriate) calls and holds a meeting each year that is dedicated, in part, to considering whether to renew the investment advisory agreement between Schwab Strategic Trust (the “Trust”) and Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (“CSIM”) (the “Agreement”) with respect to the existing funds in the Trust, including Schwab Fundamental U.S. Broad Market Index ETF, Schwab Fundamental U.S. Large Company Index ETF, Schwab Fundamental U.S. Small Company Index ETF, Schwab Fundamental International Large Company Index ETF, Schwab Fundamental International Small Company Index ETF, and Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets Large Company Index ETF (the “Funds”), and to review certain other agreements pursuant to which CSIM provides investment advisory services to certain other registered investment companies. In preparation for the meeting, the Board requests and reviews a wide variety of materials provided by CSIM, including information about CSIM’s affiliates, personnel and operations. The Board also receives extensive data provided by third parties. This information is in addition to the detailed information about the Funds that the Board reviews during the course of each year, including information that relates to Fund operations and Fund performance. In addition, the Independent Trustees meet in executive session outside the presence of fund management and participate in question and answer sessions with representatives of CSIM.
The Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, considered information specifically relating to its consideration of the continuance of the Agreement with respect to the Funds at a meeting held on September 4, 2013, and approved the renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds for an additional one year term. The Board’s approval of the Agreement with respect to the Funds was based on consideration and evaluation of a variety of specific factors discussed at this meeting and at prior meetings, including:
1. | the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Funds under the Agreement, including the resources of CSIM and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds; |
2. | each Fund’s investment performance and how it compared to that of certain other comparable exchange-traded funds; |
3. | each Fund’s expenses and how those expenses compared to those of certain other comparable exchange-traded funds; |
4. | the profitability of CSIM and its affiliates, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (“Schwab”), with respect to the Funds, including both direct and indirect benefits accruing to CSIM and its affiliates; and |
5. | the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Funds grow and whether fee levels in the Agreement reflect those economies of scale for the benefit of Fund investors. |
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Board considered the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by CSIM to the Funds and the resources of CSIM and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds. In this regard, the Trustees evaluated, among other things, CSIM’s personnel, experience, track record and compliance program. The Trustees also considered Schwab’s wide range of products, services, and channel alternatives such as free advice, investment research tools and Internet access and an array of account features that benefit the Funds and their shareholders. The Trustees also considered Schwab’s excellent reputation as a full service brokerage firm and its overall financial condition. Finally, the Trustees considered that the vast majority of the Funds’ shareholders are also brokerage clients of Schwab. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the nature, extent and quality of services provided by CSIM to the Funds and the resources of CSIM and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds.
Fund Performance. The Board considered each Fund’s performance in determining whether to renew the Agreement with respect to the Fund. Specifically, the Trustees considered each Fund’s performance relative to a peer category of other exchange-traded funds and appropriate indices/benchmarks, in light of total return, yield, if applicable, and market trends. As part of this review, the Trustees considered the composition of the peer category, selection criteria and the reputation of the third party who prepared the peer category analysis. In evaluating the performance of
74
each Fund, the Trustees considered both risk and shareholder risk expectations for such Fund. The Trustees further considered the level of Fund performance in the context of its review of Fund expenses and adviser profitability discussed below. Following such evaluation the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the performance of the Funds supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds.
Fund Expenses. With respect to the Funds’ expenses, the Trustees considered the rate of compensation called for by the Agreement, and each Fund’s operating expense ratio, in comparison to those of other comparable exchange-traded funds, such peer groups and comparisons having been selected and calculated by an independent third party. The Trustees also considered fees charged by CSIM to mutual funds that it manages. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the expenses of the Funds are reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds.
Profitability. With regard to profitability, the Trustees considered the compensation flowing to CSIM and its affiliates, directly or indirectly. In this connection, the Trustees reviewed management’s profitability analyses. The Trustees also considered any other benefits derived by CSIM from its relationship with the Funds, such as whether, by virtue of its management of the Funds, CSIM obtains investment information or other research resources that aid it in providing advisory services to other clients. The Trustees considered whether the varied levels of compensation and profitability with respect to the Funds under the Agreement and other service agreements were reasonable and justified in light of the quality of all services rendered to the Funds by CSIM and its affiliates. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the profitability of CSIM is reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds.
Economies of Scale. The Trustees considered the existence of any economies of scale and whether those are passed along to the Funds’ shareholders by way of the relatively low advisory fee and unitary fee structure of the Funds. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the Funds obtain reasonable benefit from economies of scale.
In the course of their deliberations, the Trustees did not identify any particular information or factor that was all important or controlling. Based on the Trustees’ deliberation and their evaluation of the information described above, the Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, approved the continuation of the Agreement with respect to the Funds and concluded that the compensation under the Agreement with respect to the Funds is fair and reasonable in light of such services and expenses and such other matters as the Trustees have considered to be relevant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment.
