| 1 | 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. |

From the President
Marie Chandoha is President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. and the fund covered in this report.
Dear Shareholder,
At Charles Schwab Investment Management, our goal is to provide foundational products with consistent performance that help investors to build well-diversified portfolios. The Schwab U.S. REIT ETF represents an important part of our product line-up, providing the potential for both current income and capital appreciation, and may add diversification to an income stream. The fund tracks the Dow Jones U.S. Select REIT Index and provides the benefits of ETF investing, including transparency, intraday trading, and potential tax efficiency, at one of the lowest operating expense ratios in the industry.
For the six-month reporting period ended August 31, 2015, the fund closely tracked the return of the Dow Jones U.S. Select REIT Index. After a strong performance in 2014, U.S. REITs stumbled during the reporting period and generated disappointing returns that trailed those of the broader market. Though the U.S. economy has been generally improving, concerns surrounding the timing of a potential short-term interest rate rise in the U.S. have negatively affected many income-focused investments, including REITs. Fluctuating commodity prices, the debt crisis in Greece, and the deceleration of the Chinese economy contributed to heightened market volatility, especially in the second half of the reporting period. These factors weighed heavily on most markets and created a difficult environment for real estate investors during the period.
In this environment, the performance of U.S. REITs was mostly negative across sub-industries. Specialized REITs, which include REITs that do not generate a majority of their revenues and income from real estate rental and

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 March 1, 2015 and held through August 31, 2015.
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 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.

Schwab U.S. REIT ETF
Financial Notes, unaudited
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:
| Schwab Strategic Trust (organized January 27, 2009) | Schwab Emerging Markets Equity ETF |
| Schwab U.S. REIT ETF | Schwab U.S. TIPS ETF |
| Schwab U.S. Broad Market ETF | Schwab Short-Term U.S. Treasury ETF |
| Schwab U.S. Large-Cap ETF | Schwab Intermediate-Term U.S. Treasury ETF |
| Schwab U.S. Large-Cap Growth ETF | Schwab U.S. Aggregate Bond ETF |
| Schwab U.S. Large-Cap Value ETF | Schwab Fundamental U.S. Broad Market Index ETF |
| Schwab U.S. Mid-Cap ETF | Schwab Fundamental U.S. Large Company Index ETF |
| Schwab U.S. Small-Cap ETF | Schwab Fundamental U.S. Small Company Index ETF |

| Schwab International Equity ETF | Schwab Fundamental International Small Company Index ETF |
| Schwab International Small-Cap Equity ETF | Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets Large Company Index ETF |
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/or 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 fund follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standard Codification Topic 946 Financial Services — Investment Companies. The accounting policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP).
The fund invests in certain other investment companies (underlying funds). For more information about the underlying funds' operations and policies, please refer to those funds' semiannual and annual reports, which are filed with the U.S. Securities and 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
14
Schwab U.S. REIT ETF
Financial Notes, unaudited (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. 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): A short-term security may be valued at its amortized cost when it approximates the security's 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 significant 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, without consideration to the classification level of the specific investments held by an underlying fund.
• 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.

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 fund's investments as of August 31, 2015 are disclosed in the Portfolio Holdings.
(b) Security Transactions:
Security transactions are recorded as of the date the order to buy or sell the security is executed. Realized gains and losses from security transactions are based on the identified costs of the securities involved.
When the fund closes out a futures contract 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.
(c) 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 realized gains on investments, respectively.
(d) Investment Income:
Interest income is recorded as it accrues. Dividends and distributions from portfolio securities and underlying funds are recorded on the date they are effective (the ex-dividend date), although the fund records certain foreign security dividends on the day it learns of the ex-dividend date. Any distributions from underlying funds are recorded in accordance with the character of the distributions as designated by the underlying funds.
(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 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.
(f) Distributions to Shareholders:
The fund makes distributions from net investment income, if any, quarterly and 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 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.
(i) Indemnification:
Under the fund's organizational documents, the officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the fund. In addition, in the normal course of business the fund enters into contracts with its vendors and others that provide general indemnifications. The fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the fund. However, based on experience, the fund expects the risk of loss 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 may be below that of its respective 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. Even larger REITs and other real estate companies may be small- to medium- sized companies in relation to the equity markets as a whole. Historically, small- and mid-cap stocks have been riskier than large-cap stocks. Small- and mid-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 small- and mid-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. Due to the composition of the index, the fund concentrates 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.
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.
Derivatives Risk. The principal types of derivatives used by the fund 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 leverage risk, market risk and liquidity risk, are discussed elsewhere in this section.
The fund’s use of derivatives is also subject to credit risk, lack-of-availability risk, valuation risk, correlation risk and tax risk. 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
17
Schwab U.S. REIT ETF
Financial Notes, unaudited (continued)
3. Risk Factors (continued):
risks could cause the fund to lose more than the initial amount invested. The fund’s use of derivatives could reduce the fund’s performance, increase the fund’s volatility, and cause the fund to lose more than the initial amount invested. Furthermore, the use of derivatives subject to regulation by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) could cause the fund to become a commodity pool, which would require the fund to comply with certain CFTC rules.
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.
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. The market price of fund shares may deviate, sometimes significantly, from NAV during periods of market volatility.
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:
CSIM, a wholly owned subsidiary of The Charles Schwab Corporation, serves as the fund’s investment adviser pursuant to an Advisory Agreement between CSIM and the trust.
For its advisory services to the fund, CSIM is entitled to receive an annual fee, payable monthly, equal to 0.07% of the fund's average daily net assets.
Certain Schwab funds may own shares of other Schwab Funds. The table below reflects the percentage of shares of the fund that are owned by other Schwab funds as of August 31, 2015.
| Schwab VIT Balanced Portfolio | 0.2% |
| Schwab VIT Balanced with Growth Portfolio | 0.5% |
| Schwab VIT Growth Portfolio | 0.5% |
Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, the fund may enter into interfund borrowing and lending transactions with other funds in the Fund Complex (for definition refer to Trustees and Officers section). All loans are for temporary or emergency purposes and the interest rate to be charged will be the average of the overnight repurchase agreement rate and the short-term bank loan rate. All loans are subject to numerous conditions designed to ensure fair and equitable treatment of all participating funds/portfolios. 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.
18
Schwab U.S. REIT ETF
Financial Notes, unaudited (continued)
6. Board of Trustees:
The Board may include people who are officers and/or directors of CSIM or its affiliates. Federal securities law limits the percentage of such “interested persons” who may serve on a trust’s board, and the trust was in compliance with these limitations throughout the report period. The trust did not pay any of these interested persons for their services as trustees. For information regarding the trustees please refer to the Trustees and Officers table at the end of this report.
7. Borrowing from Banks:
The fund has access to custodian overdraft facilities. During the period, the fund also had access 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 an interest expense, which is disclosed in the fund's Statement of Operations, if any. The interest expense is determined based on a negotiated rate above the current Federal Funds Rate.
Effective October 8, 2015, the existing line of credit was terminated and the fund became a participant in a syndicated, committed line of credit of $530 million with State Street, as agent.
8. Purchases and Sales/Maturities of Investment Securities:
For the period ended August 31, 2015, 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 U.S. REIT ETF | $63,208,258 | $52,281,908 |
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.
The in-kind transactions for the period ended August 31, 2015 were as follows:
| In-Kind Purchases of Securities | In-Kind Sales of Securities | ||
| Schwab U.S. REIT ETF | $461,012,149 | $90,648,496 |
For the period ended August 31, 2015, 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 August 31, 2015 are disclosed in the fund's Statement of Operations.
10. Federal Income Taxes
As of February 28, 2015, the fund had no capital loss carryforwards.
For tax purposes, net realized 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, 2015, the fund had capital losses carryforwards utilized in the amount of $876,325.

As of February 28, 2015, 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, 2015, the fund did not incur any interest or penalties.
11. Subsequent Events:

authorized participant (AP) A large institutional investor that places orders for creation units with the funds’ distributor.
Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index A broad-based benchmark that measures the investment grade, U.S. dollar-denominated, fixed-rate taxable bond market, including Treasuries, government-related and corporate securities, mortgage-backed securities (agency fixed-rate and hybrid ARM pass-throughs), asset-backed securities, and commercial mortgage-backed securities.

bid The highest price at which someone is willing to buy a security.
cap, capitalization See “market cap.”
capital gain, capital loss The difference between the amount paid for an investment and its value at a later time.

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

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

From the President
Marie Chandoha is President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. and the funds covered in this report.
Dear Shareholder,
At Charles Schwab Investment Management, our goal is to provide foundational products with consistent performance that help investors to build well-diversified portfolios. The Schwab Fundamental Index ETFs represent an important part of our product line-up.
In recent years, fundamentally weighted strategies have experienced considerable asset growth. 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, the Schwab Fundamental Index ETFs can serve as effective complements to capitalization-weighted index funds and actively managed investment vehicles. These funds also provide the benefits of ETF investing, including transparency, intraday trading, and potential tax efficiency.
For the six-month reporting period ended August 31, 2015, the funds produced negative returns that closely tracked their respective indices amid a broad decline in global equity indices. Internationally, emerging markets suffered the steepest losses of the period as a result of falling commodity prices and the deceleration of China’s economy, with the Russell Fundamental Emerging Markets Large Company Index posting a return of -17.2%1 during the period. Both emerging and developed markets struggled against a strong U.S. dollar. When the U.S. dollar rises against foreign currencies, returns on overseas investments will generally be reduced in U.S. dollar terms. Meanwhile, in the U.S., fears of an increasingly overvalued stock market and

For index definitions, please see the Glossary.
Shares are bought and sold at market price, which may be higher or lower than the net asset value (NAV). Brokerage commissions will reduce returns.
International investing may involve risk of capital loss from unfavorable fluctuation in currency values, from differences in generally accepted accounting principles, or from economic or political instability in other nations.
Emerging markets involve heightened risks related to the same factors as international investing, as well as increased volatility and lower trading volume.

| 1 | Performance does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or on the redemption of fund shares. |
| 2 | 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. |

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 March 1, 2015 and held through August 31, 2015.
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.

There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 for the period ended August 31, 2015.

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:
| Schwab Strategic Trust (organized January 27, 2009) | Schwab U.S. Mid-Cap ETF |
| Schwab Fundamental U.S. Broad Market Index ETF | Schwab U.S. Small-Cap ETF |
| Schwab Fundamental U.S. Large Company Index ETF | Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF |
| Schwab Fundamental U.S. Small Company Index ETF | Schwab U.S. REIT ETF |

| Schwab U.S. Large-Cap Value ETF | Schwab U.S. Aggregate Bond ETF |
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/or an amount of cash. As a practical matter, only institutions or large investors purchase or redeem Creation Units. Except when aggregated in Creation Units, shares of the fund are not redeemable securities.
Individual shares of the funds trade on national securities exchanges and elsewhere during the trading day and can only be bought and sold at market prices throughout the trading day through a broker-dealer. Because fund shares trade at market prices rather than NAV, shares may trade at a price greater than NAV (premium) or less than NAV (discount).
Each fund maintains its own account for purposes of holding assets and accounting, and is considered a separate entity for tax purposes. Within its account, each fund may also keep certain assets in segregated accounts, as required by securities law.
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the funds use in their preparation of financial statements. The funds follow the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standard Codification Topic 946 Financial Services — Investment Companies. The accounting policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP).
The funds invest in certain other investment companies (underlying funds). For specific investments in underlying funds, please refer to the complete schedule of portfolio holdings on Form N-CSR, which is filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). For more information about the underlying funds’ operations and policies, please refer to those funds’ semiannual and annual reports, which are filed with the 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.

Financial Notes, unaudited (continued)
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
• Securities for which no quoted value is available: The Board has adopted procedures to fair value each fund’s securities when market prices are not “readily available” or are unreliable. For example, a fund may fair value a security when it is de-listed or its trading is halted or suspended; when a security’s primary pricing source is unable or unwilling to provide a price; or when a security’s primary trading market is closed during regular market hours. Each fund makes fair value determinations in good faith in accordance with the fund’s valuation procedures. The Pricing Committee considers a number of factors, including unobservable market inputs when arriving at fair value. The Pricing Committee may employ techniques such as the review of related or comparable assets or liabilities, related market activities, recent transactions, market multiples, book values, transactional back-testing, disposition analysis and other relevant information. The Pricing Committee regularly reviews these inputs and assumptions to calibrate the valuations. 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 contracts are valued at their settlement prices as of the close of their exchanges.
• Short-term securities (60 days or less to maturity): A short-term security may be valued at its amortized cost when it approximates the security's 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 significant 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, without consideration to the classification level of the specific investments held by an underlying fund.
• 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

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
changes in financial ratios or cash flows. Level 3 prices may also be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, with the amount of such discount estimated by the funds in the absence of market information. Assumptions used by the funds due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting fair value and therefore the funds’ results of operations.
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The levels associated with valuing the funds' investments as of August 31, 2015 are disclosed in the Condensed 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 appreciation or depreciation until the contract is closed, at which time the gains or losses are realized. Futures contracts are traded publicly on exchanges, and their market value may change 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 be maintained on a daily marked-to-market basis in an amount at least equal to the current value of the securities loaned. The lending agent provides a fund with indemnification against borrower default (the borrower fails to return the security on loan) reducing the risk of loss as a result of default. The cash collateral of securities loaned is currently invested in money market portfolios operating under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act. Each fund bears the risk of loss with respect to the investment of cash collateral. The terms of the securities lending agreement allow the funds to terminate any loans at any given time. Securities lending income, as disclosed in each 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 a fund and the lending agent. A fund retains the right to recall a security on loan. The aggregate market value of securities loaned will not at any time exceed one-third of the total assets of a fund, including collateral received from the loan (at market value computed at the time of the loan). Total 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.
The value of the securities on loan and the related collateral as of August 31, 2015, if any, are disclosed in each fund's Condensed Portfolio Holdings. The value of the securities on loan and the investments of cash collateral are also disclosed in each fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
(c) Security Transactions:
Security transactions are recorded as of the date the order to buy or sell the security is executed. Realized gains 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 appreciation or depreciation arises 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
60

Financial Notes, unaudited (continued)
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
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 contract 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.
(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 rate is fixed and known, unless a tax withheld is reclaimable from the local tax authorities in which case it is recorded as receivable. If the tax rate is not known or estimable, such expense or reclaim receivable is recorded when the net proceeds are received.
(e) Expenses:
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 net realized 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.
61
Schwab Fundamental Index ETFs
Financial Notes, unaudited (continued)
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
(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 August 31, 2015, if any, are reflected in each fund's Statement 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.
(k) New Accounting Pronouncements:
In June 2014, Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-11, Topic 806 Transfers and Servicing — Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings and Disclosures, was issued and is effective for interim periods beginning after March 15, 2015 and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014. The ASU modifies accounting guidance and enhances disclosure requirements for repurchase agreement and securities lending transactions. Management is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2014-11 may have on the funds’ financial statement disclosures.
3. Risk Factors:
Investing in the funds may involve certain risks, as discussed in the funds’ prospectus, including, but not limited to, those described below. Any of these risks could cause an investor to lose money.
Market Risk. Equity 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, the funds follow the securities included in the 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 the funds' expenses, the funds' performance may be below that of their respective 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
62
Schwab Fundamental Index ETFs
Financial Notes, unaudited (continued)
3. Risk Factors (continued):
limitations on currency movements and exchanges); the imposition of economic sanctions or other government restrictions; differing accounting, auditing, financial reporting and legal standards and practices; differing securities market structures; and higher transaction costs. These risks may negatively impact the value or liquidity of a fund's investments, and could impair the fund's ability to meet its investment objective or invest in accordance with its investment strategy. These risks may be heightened in connection with investments in emerging markets. Foreign securities also include American Depositary receipts (ADRs), Global Depositary receipts (GDRs), and European Depositary receipts (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 market countries 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, which may be magnified by currency fluctuations relative to the U.S. dollar and, at times, it may be difficult to value such investments.
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 investment 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 index.
Tracking Error Risk. As an index fund, each fund seeks to track the performance of the index, although it may not be successful in doing so. The divergence between the performance of a fund and the 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 use derivatives to enhance returns or hedge against market declines. Examples of derivatives are options, futures, options on futures and swaps. An option is the right to buy or sell an instrument at a specific price before a specific date. A future is an agreement to buy or sell a financial instrument at a specific price on a specific day. A swap is an agreement whereby two parties agree to exchange payment streams calculated in relation to a rate, index, instrument or certain securities and a predetermined amount.
A fund’s use of derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. Certain of these risks, such as liquidity risk and market risk, are discussed elsewhere in this section. The fund’s use of derivatives is also subject to credit risk, leverage risk, lack of availability risk, valuation risk, correlation risk and tax risk. Lack of availability risk is the risk that suitable derivative transactions may not be available in all circumstances for risk management or other purposes. Credit risk is the risk that the counterparty to a derivatives transaction may not fulfill its obligations. Leverage risk is the risk that a small percentage of assets invested in derivatives can have a disproportionately large impact on the fund. Valuation risk is the risk that a particular derivative may be valued incorrectly. Correlation risk is the risk that changes in the value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index. Tax risk is the risk that the use of derivatives may cause the fund to realize higher amounts of short-term capital gain. These risks could cause the fund to lose more than the initial amount invested. The use of derivatives, subject to regulation by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), could cause the fund to become a commodity pool, which would require the fund to comply with certain CFTC rules.
Liquidity Risk. A particular investment may be difficult to purchase or sell. A fund may be unable to sell a security 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.
63
Schwab Fundamental Index ETFs
Financial Notes, unaudited (continued)
3. Risk Factors (continued):
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. The market price of fund shares may deviate, sometimes significantly, from NAV during periods of market volatility or as a result of other factors impacting foreign securities, including liquidity, irregular trading activity and timing differences between foreign markets where securities trade and the secondary market where fund shares are sold.
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.
For its advisory services to the funds, CSIM is entitled to receive an annual fee, payable monthly, based on a percentage of each fund’s average daily net assets as follows:
| 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 | Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets Large Company Index ETF | |||||
| 0.32% | 0.32% | 0.32% | 0.32% | 0.46% | 0.46% |
The funds may engage in certain transactions involving affiliates. For instance, a fund may own shares of The Charles Schwab Corporation if that company is included in its index. Below is the summary of investment activities involving The Charles Schwab Corporation shares owned by the funds during the report period:
| Fund | Balance of Shares Held at 02/28/15 | Gross Purchases | Gross Sales | Balance of Shares Held at 8/31/15 | Market Value at 8/31/15 | Realized Gains (Losses) 3/1/15 to 8/31/15 | Dividends Received 3/1/15 to 8/31/15 | |||||||
| Schwab Fundamental U.S. Broad Market Index ETF | 3,997 | 486 | (1,001) | 3,482 | $105,783 | $3,077 | $458 | |||||||
| Schwab Fundamental U.S. Large Company Index ETF | 7,089 | 9,020 | (3,105) | 13,004 | 395,062 | 13,616 | 1,375 |
Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, the funds may enter into interfund borrowing and lending transactions with other funds in the Fund Complex (for definition refer to Trustees and Officers section). All loans are for temporary or emergency purposes and the interest rate to be charged will be the average of the overnight repurchase agreement rate and the short-term bank loan rate. All loans are subject to numerous conditions designed to ensure fair and equitable treatment of all participating funds/portfolios. 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.
64
Schwab Fundamental Index ETFs
Financial Notes, unaudited (continued)
5. Other Service Providers (continued):
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.
The funds may engage in direct transactions with certain other Schwab funds when practical. When one fund is seeking to sell a security that another is seeking to buy, an interfund transaction can allow both funds to benefit by reducing transaction costs. This practice is limited to funds that share the same investment adviser, trustees and/or officers. For the period ended August 31, 2015, each fund's total aggregate security transactions with other Schwab funds were as follows:
| Schwab Fundamental U.S. Broad Market Index ETF | $526,919 |
| Schwab Fundamental U.S. Large Company Index ETF | 11,548,547 |
| Schwab Fundamental U.S. Small Company Index ETF | — |
| Schwab Fundamental International Large Company Index ETF | — |
| Schwab Fundamental International Small Company Index ETF | — |
| Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets Large Company Index ETF | 44,437 |
6. Board of Trustees:
The Board may include people who are officers and/or directors of CSIM or its affiliates. Federal securities law limits the percentage of such “interested persons” who may serve on a trust’s board, and the trust was in compliance with these limitations throughout the report period. The trust did not pay any of these interested persons for their services as trustees. For information regarding the trustees please refer to the Trustees and Officers table at the end of this report.
7. Borrowing from Banks:
The funds have access to custodian overdraft facilities. During the period, the funds also had access 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 an interest expense, which is disclosed on a fund's Statement of Operations, if any. The interest expense is determined based on a negotiated rate above the current Federal Funds Rate.
Effective October 8, 2015, the existing line of credit was terminated and the funds became participants in a syndicated, committed line of credit of $530 million with State Street, as agent.
8. Derivatives:
Certain funds entered into equity index futures contracts during the report period. The funds invested in futures contracts to equitize available cash. The fair value and variation margin for futures contracts held at August 31, 2015 are presented on the Condensed Portfolio Holdings and Statement of Assets and Liabilities, respectively. The net realized and change in unrealized gains (losses) on futures contracts are presented on the Statement of Operations. Refer to financial note 2(b) for the funds’

| Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets Large Company Index ETF | 160,322,740 | 21,496,109 |
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 a fund.
The in-kind transactions for the period ended August 31, 2015 were as follows:
| In-Kind Purchases of Securities | In-Kind Sales of Securities | ||
| Schwab Fundamental U.S. Broad Market Index ETF | $26,729,110 | $— | |
| Schwab Fundamental U.S. Large Company Index ETF | 496,062,080 | 88,368,736 | |
| Schwab Fundamental U.S. Small Company Index ETF | 330,228,720 | 74,280,839 | |

Financial Notes, unaudited (continued)
10. In-Kind Transactions (continued):
For the period ended August 31, 2015, the funds realized net capital gains or losses resulting from in-kind redemptions of Creation Units. Because such gains or losses are not taxable to the funds and are not distributed to existing fund shareholders, the gains or losses are reclassified from accumulated net realized gains or losses to capital received from investors at the end of the funds' tax year. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset values per share. The net realized in-kind gains or losses for the period ended August 31, 2015 are disclosed in the funds' Statements of Operations.
11. Federal Income Taxes
Capital loss carryforwards may be used to offset future realized capital gains for federal income tax purposes. As of February 28, 2015, the funds had capital loss carryforwards available to offset future net capital gains before the expiration dates as follows:
| Expiration Date | 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 | Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets Large Company Index ETF | ||||||
| No expiration* | $100,125 | $187,754 | $223,286 | $1,471,155 | $364,566 | $84,642 | ||||||
| Total | $100,125 | $187,754 | $223,286 | $1,471,155 | $364,566 | $84,642 |
| * | 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. |
For tax purposes, net realized 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, 2015, the funds had no capital losses deferred and no capital loss carryforwards utilized.
As of February 28, 2015, management has reviewed the tax positions for open periods (for federal purposes, three years from the date of filing and for state purposes, four years from the date of filing) as applicable to the funds, and has determined that no provision for income tax is required in the funds' financial statements. The funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the period ended February 28, 2015, the funds did not incur any interest or penalties.
12. Other:
As a result of recent political and military actions undertaken by the Russian Federation, the U.S. and the European Union have instituted various economic sanctions against Russian individuals and entities. The U.S. and/or the European Union may impose additional economic sanctions, or take other actions, against individuals and/or companies in specific sectors of the Russian economy, including, but not limited to, the financial services, energy, metals and mining, engineering, and defense and defense related materials sectors. These sanctions, and the threat of additional sanctions, could have adverse consequences for the Russian economy, including continued weakening of the Russian currency, downgrades in Russia’s credit rating, and a significant decline in the value and liquidity of securities issued by Russian companies or the Russian government. Any of these events could negatively impact a fund's investment in Russian securities. These sanctions have the possibility of impairing a fund’s ability to invest in accordance with its investment strategy and/or to meet its investment objective.
In addition, as index based products, the funds will generally maintain exposure to Russian securities to the extent the indexes which they track include such securities. For this reason, the sanction instituted against Russia, and any continued disruption of the Russian economy, could negatively impact a fund’s performance to the extent its index and its portfolio contain securities of Russian issuers, and, depending on the fund’s exposure to Russian issuers, the impact could be significant.
13. Subsequent Events:
Management has determined there are no subsequent events or transactions through the date the financial statements were issued that would have materially impacted the financial statements as presented.

commencement of operations The date that the first NAV was calculated.
creation unit (C.U.) A basket of securities that is delivered by an authorized participant (AP) to the fund equal to the current holdings of the ETF, plus a designated cash component. In return, the APs receive a large block of ETF shares (typically 50,000 shares), which investors can then buy and sell in the secondary market.

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

With a simple median, half of the stocks in the fund’s portfolio would be larger than the median, and half would be smaller. With a weighted median (the type that is calculated for these funds), half of the fund’s assets are invested in stocks that are larger than the median market cap, and half in stocks that are smaller.
