President of Schwab Asset
Management and the fund
covered in this report.
Dear Shareholder,
Geopolitical, economic, and market challenges abounded during the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022. Although the period started off strong, with markets reaching new highs in the final months of 2021, the subsequent 10 months were beset by rapidly rising inflation, sharply climbing interest rates, steeply declining stock prices, and the onset of a war in Europe as Russia invaded Ukraine. Economic growth in the United States and most of the world slowed. By the end of the period, the S&P 500® Index, a bellwether for the overall U.S. stock market, lost nearly 20% of its value from its early-January 2022 peak and returned -14.6% for the reporting period. The MSCI EAFE® Index (Net)*, a broad measure of developed international equity performance, declined by more than 25% between early-January 2022 highs and the end of the reporting period and returned -23.0% for the reporting period. Among international markets, commodity producers—aside from Russia and Ukraine—were buoyed by soaring oil and gas prices as well as steeply rising prices for other agricultural and industrial raw materials. However, most developed and developing international markets suffered as Europe faced mounting geopolitical and economic challenges and as China experienced slowing growth due to rolling COVID-19 lockdowns and restrictive regulatory policies affecting key industries.
At Schwab Asset Management, we recognize that today’s turbulent investment environment may be unsettling for many investors. Market declines and volatility can rattle confidence even in well-established investment plans and can cause investors to impulsively react to market movements. At such times, it is helpful to remember that, even in the face of market turmoil and volatility, most investors are best served by maintaining a diversified portfolio that reflects their risk tolerance and long-term goals.
The Schwab International Opportunities Fund offers diversified access to multiple international investment managers, each with their own focus and style and overseen by our investment manager research team. The fund provides exposure to international developed and emerging markets, large- and small-capitalization, and growth and value stocks. On February 25, 2022, Schwab Asset Management reduced the fund’s management fee from a tiered rate to 0.63% and reduced the fund’s expense limitation from 1.25% to 0.86%. Along with these reductions, Schwab Asset Management made changes to the fund’s name and portfolio management team and allocated a portion of the fund’s assets to a passive international sleeve.
Thank you for investing with Schwab Asset Management, and for trusting us to help you achieve your financial goals. For more information about the Schwab International Opportunities Fund, please continue reading this report. In addition, you can find further details about the fund by visiting our website at www.schwabassetmanagement.com. We are also happy to hear from you at 1-877-824-5615.
Sincerely,
“ On February 25, 2022, Schwab Asset Management reduced the fund’s management fee from a tiered rate to 0.63% and reduced the fund’s expense limitation from 1.25% to 0.86%.”
Past performance is no guarantee of future results.
Diversification and asset allocation strategies do not ensure a profit and cannot protect against losses in a declining market.

The Investment Environment
For the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, international equity markets lost ground. After several key market indices hit record highs through early January, equity markets around the globe began to slide in reaction to growing headwinds, including accelerating inflation and the increasing likelihood of rising interest rates. In late February 2022, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine drove oil prices to over $100 per barrel for the first time since 2014 and roiled stock markets around the world. Albeit decelerating, COVID-19 continued to weigh on economies worldwide, with highly transmissible variants and subvariants keeping infection rates high in many areas. As the reporting period progressed, economic growth slowed, interest rates rose, and recession fears mounted. The U.S. dollar continued to exhibit strength against a basket of foreign currencies, ending the reporting period significantly stronger and generally reducing the returns of overseas investments in U.S. dollar terms. For the reporting period, the S&P 500® Index, a bellwether for the overall U.S. stock market, returned -14.61%. Outside the United States, the MSCI EAFE® Index (Net)*, a broad measure of developed international equity performance, returned -23.00% and the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (Net)* returned -31.03%.
After a recovery from the dramatic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic through the end of 2021, U.S. gross domestic product (GDP) increased at an annualized rate of 6.9% for the fourth quarter. However, amid fading government stimuli, ongoing supply chain disruptions, persisting inflation, a tight labor market, and a widening U.S. trade deficit, GDP decreased at an annualized rate of -1.6% and -0.6% for the first and second quarters of 2022, respectively. GDP growth was positive for the third quarter of 2022, increasing at an annualized rate of 2.9%, driven primarily by energy exports.
Outside the United States, global economies also wrestled with the fallout of the COVID-19 pandemic, high energy costs, rising inflation, and the war in Ukraine. After spiking in early March 2022 as sanctions were imposed on Russian imports—and again in June on supply-and-demand imbalances—oil prices generally fell through the rest of the reporting period, ending at just over $86 per barrel. The eurozone, heavily impacted by the war in Ukraine and associated commodity price spikes, managed to eke out small gains in GDP for the fourth quarter of 2021 and first and second quarters of 2022, as COVID-19 restrictions eased and tourism increased in response to pent-up demand.

The Investment Environment (continued)
United Kingdom also posted small gains in GDP growth for the fourth quarter of 2021 and first and second quarters of 2022. Among emerging markets, China’s GDP growth rate remained positive but slowed notably as China dealt with numerous headwinds including the political landscape, an emphasis on domestic consumption over globalization, lockdowns and quarantines, and a severe property downturn as a result of stalled demand, a decline in financing for property development, halted construction on in progress projects, and homeowners pausing mortgage payments on incomplete builds. India’s GDP growth also remained positive over the reporting period, particularly in the second quarter of 2022, on rising consumer demand and a rapid decline in COVID-19 cases.
Monetary policy around the world varied. In the United States, after maintaining the federal funds rate in a range of 0.00% to 0.25% through mid-March 2022, as inflation continued to rise and indicators of economic activity and employment continued to strengthen, the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) shifted its stance. After issuing successively stronger signals that interest rates could begin to rise sooner in 2022 than previously anticipated, the Fed raised the federal funds rate five times during the reporting period—by 0.25% in mid-March, 0.50% in early May, 0.75% in mid-June, 0.75% in late July, and 0.75% in late September—in its ongoing efforts to achieve a return to price stability. The federal funds rate ended the reporting period in a range of 3.00% to 3.25%. Outside the United States, central banks were similarly responsive. After holding its policy rate unchanged since March 2015, at 0.00%, the European Central Bank raised its interest rate three times over the reporting period in an effort to dampen demand and control inflation, which in October 2022 rose into double-digits. The Bank of England raised its key official bank rate seven times during the reporting period, bringing borrowing costs to a 13-year high as the Bank of England wrestles with soaring inflation. In contrast, the Bank of Japan continued to uphold its short-term interest rate target of -0.1%, unchanged since 2016, but raised its inflation forecast at its October 2022 meeting. Monetary policies in emerging markets were mixed. Central banks in India, Indonesia, Brazil, Mexico, and Pakistan raised their rates multiple times over the reporting period to counteract the impacts of inflation. In contrast, China cut its interest rate three times over the reporting period, in part as a result of a resurgence of COVID-19 cases and a lingering property downturn. Russia raised its benchmark policy rate to 20% in late February 2022 amid the broadening fallout of Western sanctions in retaliation against Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, but subsequently reduced it several times.

Performance. For the 12-month period ended October 31, 2022, the fund returned -34.83%1, underperforming the fund’s comparative index, the MSCI EAFE® Index (Net) (the index), which returned -23.00%2.
Positioning and Strategies. Over the 12-month reporting period, all four of the fund’s current active subadvisers posted negative returns, detracting from the fund’s total return. All four of the fund’s current active subadvisers also underperformed their comparative indices.
Among the fund’s four current active subadvisers, Baillie Gifford Overseas Limited posted a negative return and underperformed its international growth comparative index. Stock selection was weakest in the consumer discretionary, health care, information technology, and consumer staples sectors and detracted from relative return while stock selection was strongest in the industrials sector and contributed to relative return. An overweight to the health care sector and an underweight to the real estate sector contributed to the relative performance. From a regional perspective, stock selection in Germany and an overweight to the United States detracted from relative performance and an underweight to Russia and stock selection in Italy contributed to relative performance.
Harris Associates L.P. also posted a negative return and underperformed its international comparative index. Stock selection was weakest in the financials and consumer discretionary sectors and detracted from relative return while stock selection was strongest in the materials sector and contributed to relative return. An underweight to the energy sector and an overweight to the consumer discretionary sector detracted from relative return while an underweight to the real estate and utilities sectors and a slight overweight to the health care sector contributed to relative return. From a regional perspective, an overweight to Germany and stock selection in the United Kingdom detracted from relative performance and an overweight to India and an underweight to Hong Kong contributed to relative performance.
American Century Investment Management, Inc., which focuses on international small-cap growth, also posted a negative return and underperformed its comparative index. Stock selection was weakest in the industrials, health care, and communication services sectors and detracted from relative return while stock selection in the real estate and financials sectors was strongest and contributed to relative return. An overweight to the energy sector also contributed to relative return. From a regional perspective, an overweight to the United States and stock selection in Japan detracted from relative performance and stock selection in the United States and India contributed to relative performance.
Mondrian Investment Partners Limited, with its international small-cap value focus, also posted a negative return and underperformed its comparative index. Stock selection was weakest in the industrials, information technology, energy, and materials sectors and detracted from relative return while stock selection in the real estate and consumer staples sectors contributed to relative return. An underweight to the real estate and materials sectors also contributed to relative return. From a regional perspective, stock selection in Japan and Germany detracted from relative performance and stock selection in France and the United Kingdom contributed to relative performance.
Effective February 25, 2022, Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc., dba Schwab Asset Management, began managing a portion of the fund. Schwab Asset Management seeks to track the performance of the FTSE Developed ex US Quality Factor Index. Over the period of February 25, 2022, through October 31, 2022, the fund’s allocation to Schwab Asset Management performed in line with this objective.
Effective February 25, 2022, William Blair Investment Management, LLC and Mellon Investments Corporation were removed as subadvisers. For the period of November 1, 2021, through February 25, 2022, William Blair detracted from the performance of the fund. Assets managed by William Blair and Mellon were reallocated across Schwab Asset Management and the other subadvisers of the fund.

Fund Expenses (Unaudited)
Examples for a $1,000 Investment
As a fund shareholder, you may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, transfer agent and shareholder services fees, and other fund expenses.
The expense examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing cost (in dollars) of investing in 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 May 1, 2022 and held through October 31, 2022.
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 the 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 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. 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.

Effective February 25, 2022, the Laudus International MarketMasters Fund changed its name to Schwab International Opportunities Fund.
The fund offers one share class. Shares are bought and sold at closing net asset value per share (NAV), which is the price for all outstanding shares of the fund. Each share has a par value of 1/1,000 of a cent, and the fund’s Board of Trustees (the Board) may authorize the issuance of as many shares as necessary.
The fund maintains its own account for purposes of holding assets and accounting, and is considered a separate entity for tax purposes. Within its account, the fund may also keep certain assets in segregated accounts, as required by securities law.
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the fund uses in its preparation of financial statements. The fund follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) 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 may invest in mutual funds and exchange-traded funds (ETFs), which are referred to as "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) and are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
(a) Security Valuation:
Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Board has designated authority to a Valuation Designee, the fund’s investment adviser, to make fair valuation determinations under adopted procedures, subject to Board oversight. The investment adviser has formed a Pricing Committee to administer the pricing and valuation of portfolio securities and other assets and liabilities and to ensure that prices used for internal purposes or provided by third parties reasonably reflect fair value. The Valuation Designee may utilize independent pricing services, quotations from securities and financial instrument dealers and other market sources to determine fair value.
Securities held in the fund’s portfolio are valued every business day. The following valuation policies and procedures are used by the Valuation Designee 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 the mean of 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.
• Foreign equity security fair valuation: The Valuation Designee has adopted procedures to fair value foreign equity securities that are traded in markets that close prior to the valuation of the fund’s holdings. By fair valuing securities whose prices may have been affected by events occurring after the close of trading, the Valuation Designee seeks to establish prices that investors might expect to realize upon the current sales of these securities. This methodology is designed to deter “arbitrage” market timers, who seek to exploit delays between the change in the value of the fund’s portfolio holdings and the NAV of the fund’s shares and seeks to help ensure that the prices at which the fund’s shares are purchased and redeemed are fair and do not result in dilution of shareholder interest or other harm to shareholders. When fair value pricing is used at the open or close of a reporting period, it may cause a temporary divergence between the return of the fund and that of its comparative index or benchmark.
• Futures contracts and forward foreign currency exchange contracts (forwards): Futures contracts are valued at their settlement prices as of the close of their exchanges. Forwards are valued based on that day’s forward exchange rates or by using an interpolated forward exchange rate for contracts with interim settlement dates.
• Mutual funds: Mutual funds are valued at their respective NAVs.
• Securities for which no quoted value is available: The Valuation Designee has adopted procedures to fair value the fund’s securities when market prices are not “readily available” or are unreliable. For example, a security may be fair valued 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. Fair value determinations are made in good faith in accordance with adopted valuation procedures. The Valuation Designee considers a number of factors, including unobservable market inputs, when arriving at fair value. The Valuation Designee may employ methods 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. 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.
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 methods 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 it is determined 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 the Valuation Designee’s judgment will be required to estimate fair value.

Schwab International Opportunities Fund
Financial Notes (continued)
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
• Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical investments — 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, mutual funds, 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 underlying securities 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. In addition, international securities whose markets close hours before the valuation of the fund’s holdings may require fair valuations due to significant movement in the U.S. markets occurring after the daily close of foreign markets. The Valuation Designee has approved a vendor that calculates fair valuations of international equity securities based on a number of factors that appear to correlate to the movements in the U.S. markets.
• Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Valuation Designee’s 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 readily available for these securities, one or more valuation methods are used for which sufficient and reliable data is available. The inputs used 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 in the absence of market information. Assumptions used due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting fair value and therefore the fund’s results of operations.
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The levels associated with valuing the fund’s investments as of October 31, 2022 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. The 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 the 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 value may change daily.
Passive Foreign Investment Companies: The fund may own shares in certain foreign corporations that meet the Internal Revenue Code definition of a Passive Foreign Investment Company (PFIC). The fund may elect for tax purposes to mark-to-market annually the shares of each PFIC lot held and would be required to distribute as ordinary income to shareholders any such marked-to- market gains (as well as any gains realized on sale).
Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts: Forwards are contracts to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The value of the forwards is accounted for as unrealized appreciation or depreciation until the contracts settle, at which time the gains or losses are realized.
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 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 the 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 pursuant to Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. The fund bears the risk of loss with

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
respect to the investment of cash collateral. The terms of the securities lending agreement allow the fund or the lending agent to terminate any loan at any given time and the securities must be returned within the earlier of the standard trade settlement period or the specified time period under the relevant securities lending agreement. 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. The aggregate fair value of securities loaned will not at any time exceed one-third of the total assets of the fund, including collateral received from the loan. Securities lending fees paid to the unaffiliated lending agents start at 9% of gross lending revenue, with subsequent breakpoints to a low of 5%. In this context, the gross lending revenue equals the income received from the investment of cash collateral and fees paid by borrowers less any rebates paid to the borrowers. Any expenses charged by the cash collateral fund are in addition to these fees. All remaining revenue is retained by the fund, as applicable. No portion of lending revenue is paid to or retained by the investment adviser or any of its affiliates.
As of October 31, 2022, the fund had securities on loan, all of which were classified as common stocks. The value of the securities on loan and the related collateral as of October 31, 2022, are disclosed in the fund’s Portfolio Holdings and Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Central Securities Depositories Regulation: Effective February 1, 2022 the Central Securities Depositories Regulation (CSDR) introduced measures for the authorization and supervision of European Union Central Security Depositories and created a common set of prudential, organizational, and conduct of business standards at a European level. CSDR is designed to support securities settlement and operational aspects of securities settlement, including the provision of shorter settlement periods; mandatory buy-ins; and cash penalties, to prevent and address settlement fails. CSDR measures are aimed to prevent settlement fails by ensuring that all transaction details are provided to facilitate settlement, as well as further incentivizing timely settlement by imposing cash penalty fines and buy-ins. The fund may be subject to pay cash penalties and may also receive cash penalties with certain counterparties in instances where there are settlement fails. These cash penalties are included in net realized gains (losses) on sales of securities in the fund’s Statement of Operations, if any.
(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 differences 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 and unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses are reported in foreign currency transactions or translations in the Statement of Operations. The fund does 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 fund on the sale of securities in certain foreign countries may be subject to non-U.S. taxes. In those instances, the fund records a liability based on unrealized appreciation to provide for potential non-U.S. taxes payable upon the sale of these securities.
When the fund closes out a futures contract, 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, in the form of cash or non-cash income such as in the form of additional securities, 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 date the ex-dividend date is confirmed. Any distributions from underlying funds are recorded in accordance with the character of the distributions as designated by the underlying funds.
Schwab International Opportunities Fund | Annual Report
Schwab International Opportunities Fund
Financial Notes (continued)
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
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.
The fund filed claims to recover taxes previously withheld in certain European Union countries on the basis that those countries had purportedly violated certain provisions in the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union. These filings are subject to various administrative and judicial proceedings within these countries, and all professional fees associated with these filings have been paid by the investment adviser. The professional fees are non-contingent and non-routine fees which are subject to repayment to the investment adviser (see financial note 4 for additional information).
(e) Expenses:
Expenses that are specific to the fund are charged directly to the fund. Expenses that are common to more than one fund in the trusts generally are allocated among those funds in proportion to their average daily net assets.
(f) Distributions to Shareholders:
The fund makes distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, once a year. To receive a distribution, you must be a registered shareholder on the record date. Distributions are paid to shareholders on the payable date.
(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 under subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended. Accordingly, the fund distributes substantially all of its net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, to its shareholders each year. As long as the fund meets the tax requirements, it is not required to pay federal income tax.
(i) Foreign Taxes:
The fund 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 fund invests. These foreign taxes, if any, are paid by the fund and are disclosed in the Statement of Operations. Foreign taxes accrued as of October 31, 2022, if any, are reflected in the fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
(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.
(k) Regulatory Update:
In October 2022, the SEC adopted rule and form amendments to require mutual funds and ETFs to transmit concise and visually engaging streamlined annual and semiannual reports to shareholders that highlight key information deemed important for retail investors to assess and monitor their fund investments. Other information, including financial statements, will no longer appear in funds’ streamlined shareholder reports but must be available online, delivered free of charge upon request, and filed on a semiannual basis on Form N-CSR. The rule and form amendments will be effective on January 24, 2023 and the compliance date will be July 24, 2024. At this time, management is evaluating the impact of these rule and form amendment changes on the content of the current shareholder report and the newly created annual and semiannual streamlined shareholder reports.

Schwab International Opportunities Fund
Financial Notes (continued)
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. Financial markets rise and fall in response to a variety of factors, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably. Markets may be impacted by economic, political, regulatory and other conditions, including economic sanctions and other government actions. In addition, the occurrence of global events, such as war, terrorism, environmental disasters, natural disasters and epidemics, may also negatively affect the financial markets. As with any investment whose performance is tied to these markets, the value of an investment in the fund will fluctuate, which means that an investor could lose money over short or long periods.
Investment Style Risk. Schwab Asset Management may attempt to reduce the impact of the performance of any given investment style by allocating to investment managers who invest in both value and growth style stocks. But whenever value stocks fall out of favor with investors, they may underperform growth stocks, and vice versa.
The portion of the fund that is invested in accordance with a particular index follows the securities included in that index during upturns as well as downturns. The fund does not take steps to reduce market exposure or to lessen the effects of a declining market with respect to this portion. In addition, because of the fund’s expenses, the fund’s performance with respect to this portion may be below that of the index. Errors relating to the index may occur from time to time and may not be identified by the index provider for a period of time. In addition, market disruptions could cause delays in the index’s rebalancing schedule. Such errors and/or market disruptions may result in losses for the fund.
Multi-Manager Risk. Schwab Asset Management and each investment manager makes investment decisions independently, and it is possible that the investment styles of Schwab Asset Management and the investment managers may not complement one another. As a result, the fund’s exposure to a given stock, industry or investment style could unintentionally be smaller or larger than if the fund had a single manager.
Management Risk. As an actively managed mutual fund, the fund is subject to the risk that its investment adviser and investment managers will select investments or allocate assets in a manner that could cause the fund to underperform or otherwise not meet its investment objective. Poor stock selection or a focus on securities in a particular sector may cause the fund to underperform its benchmark or other funds with a similar investment objective.
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.
Market Capitalization Risk. Securities issued by companies of different market capitalizations tend to go in and out of favor based on market and economic conditions. During a period when securities of a particular market capitalization fall behind other types of investments, the fund’s performance could be impacted.
Large-Cap Company Risk. Large-cap companies are generally more mature and the securities issued by these companies may not be able to reach the same levels of growth as the securities issued by small- or mid-cap companies.
Mid-Cap Company Risk. Mid-cap companies may be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic events than larger, more established companies and the value of securities issued by these companies may move sharply.
Small-Cap Company Risk. Securities issued by small-cap companies may be riskier than those issued by larger companies, and their prices may move sharply, especially during market upturns and downturns.
Foreign Investment Risk. The fund’s investments in securities of foreign issuers involve certain risks that may be 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); 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 the fund’s investments, and could impair the fund’s ability to meet its investment objective or invest in accordance with its investment strategy. There is a risk that investments in securities denominated in, and/or receiving revenues in, foreign currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar or, in the case of hedging positions, that the U.S. dollar will decline in value relative to the currency hedged, resulting in the dollar value of the fund’s investment being adversely affected. Foreign securities may also include investments in variable interest entities (VIEs) structures, which are created by China-based operating companies in jurisdictions outside of China to obtain indirect financing due to Chinese regulations that

Schwab International Opportunities Fund
Financial Notes (continued)
3. Risk Factors (continued):
prohibit non-Chinese ownership of those companies. To the extent the fund’s investments in a single country or a limited number of countries represent a large percentage of the fund’s assets, the fund’s performance may be adversely affected by the economic, political, regulatory and social conditions in those countries, and the fund’s price may be more volatile than the price of a fund that is geographically diversified.
Emerging Markets Risk. Emerging market countries may be more likely to experience political turmoil or rapid changes in market or economic conditions than more developed countries. Emerging market countries often have less uniformity in accounting, auditing, financial reporting and recordkeeping 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 developed countries. As a result, there may be an increased risk of illiquidity and price volatility associated with the 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.
Currency Risk. As a result of the fund’s investments in securities denominated in, and/or receiving revenues in, foreign currencies, the fund will be subject to currency risk. This is the risk that those currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar. If such an event occurs, the dollar value of an investment in the fund would be adversely affected.
Sampling Index Tracking Risk. The portion of the fund that is invested in accordance with a particular index may not fully replicate the index and may hold securities not included in the index. As a result, the fund is subject to the risk that Schwab Asset Management’s investment management strategy, the implementation of which is subject to a number of constraints, may not produce the intended results. Because Schwab Asset Management utilizes a sampling approach the portion of the fund it manages may not track the return of the index as well as it would if the fund purchased all of the securities in the index.
Derivatives Risk. The 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, but not the obligation, to buy or sell an instrument at a specific price on or 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 credit default swap is an agreement in which the seller agrees to make a payment to the buyer in the event of a specified credit event in exchange for a fixed payment or series of fixed payments.
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 liquidity risk, market risk and management 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. 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. 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 gains. The fund’s use of derivatives could reduce the fund’s performance, increase its volatility, and could cause the fund to lose more than the initial amount invested. The use of derivatives, that are 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. The fund may be unable to sell certain securities, such as illiquid securities, readily at a favorable time or price, or the fund may have to sell them at a loss.
Securities Lending Risk. Securities lending involves the risk of loss of rights in, or delay in recovery of, the loaned securities if the borrower fails to return the security loaned or becomes insolvent.
Please refer to the fund’s prospectus for a more complete description of the principal risks of investing in the fund.

Investment Adviser
Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc., dba Schwab Asset Management, a wholly owned subsidiary of The Charles Schwab Corporation, serves as the fund’s investment adviser and administrator pursuant to an Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement between the investment adviser and the trust.
For its advisory and administrative services to the fund, the investment adviser is entitled to receive an annual fee, payable monthly, equal to 0.63% of the fund’s average daily net assets.
Prior to February 25, 2022, the advisory and administrative service fee of the fund was as follows:
| % OF AVERAGE DAILY NET ASSETS | |
| First $500 million | 1.29% |
| $500 million to $1 billion | 1.275% |
| Over $1 billion | 1.25% |
For the period ended October 31, 2022, the aggregate advisory fees paid to the investment adviser by the fund was 0.86% as a percentage of the fund’s average daily net assets.
Shareholder Servicing
The Board has adopted a Shareholder Servicing Plan (the Plan) on behalf of the fund. The Plan enables the fund to bear expenses relating to the provision by financial intermediaries, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (Schwab), a broker-dealer affiliate of the investment adviser, (together, service providers), of certain account maintenance, customer liaison and shareholder services to the current shareholders of the fund.
Pursuant to the Plan, the fund’s shares are subject to an annual shareholder servicing fee up to 0.20%. The shareholder servicing fee paid to a particular service provider is made pursuant to its written agreement with Schwab, as distributor of the fund (or, in the case of payments made to Schwab acting as a service provider, pursuant to Schwab’s written agreement with the fund), and the fund will pay no more than 0.20% of the average annual daily net asset value of the fund shares owned by shareholders holding shares through such service provider. Payments under the Plan are made as described above without regard to whether the fee is more or less than the service provider’s actual cost of providing the services, and if more, such excess may be retained as profit by the service provider.
Expense Limitation
Although these agreements specify certain fees for these services, the investment adviser and its affiliates have made an additional agreement with the fund, for so long as the investment adviser serves as the investment adviser to the fund, which may only be amended or terminated with the approval of the Board, to limit the total annual fund operating expenses charged (including acquired fund fees and expenses, which are indirect expenses incurred by the fund through its investments in underlying funds), excluding interest, taxes and certain non-routine expenses to 0.86%. Prior to February 25, 2022, the expense limitation was 1.25%, excluding acquired fund fees and expenses, interest, taxes, and certain non-routine expenses.

Other Affiliated Transactions
The professional fees related to foreign withholding tax claims discussed in financial note 2(d) are non-contingent and non-routine fees. The investment adviser agreed to pay these professional fees on behalf of the fund, subject to reimbursement to the extent the fund is able to successfully recover taxes withheld in the future.
For the period ended October 31, 2022, the professional fees incurred by the fund and paid by the investment adviser were $13,635, as shown as Professional fees in the Statement of Operations.
For the period ended October 31, 2022, the fund recovered previously withheld foreign taxes from France. The payments received by the fund amounted to $2,686,413, which includes $322,895 of interest income, and is recorded as Dividends received from securities — unaffiliated in the fund’s Statement of Operations. The investment adviser had paid upfront professional fees associated with recovering these foreign taxes in the amount of $12,244 and is recorded as Dividends received from securities — unaffiliated in the fund’s Statement of Operations. This amount has been reimbursed to the investment adviser by the fund.
As of October 31, 2022, the balance of professional fees related to foreign withholding tax subject to future reimbursement by the fund to the investment adviser was $1,540.
No other amounts for additional tax reclaims are reflected in the financial statements due to the uncertainty surrounding the ultimate resolution of proceedings, the likelihood of receipt of these claims, and the potential timing of payment.
Interfund Borrowing and Lending
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. 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. The interfund lending facility is subject to the oversight and periodic review by the Board. The fund had no interfund borrowing or lending activity during the period.

4. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions (continued):
Interfund Transactions
The fund’s investment adviser or sub-advisers may engage in transactions with certain other funds they manage in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board pursuant to Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act. When a 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, sub-adviser, trustees and/or officers. For the period ended October 31, 2022, the fund’s purchases and sales of securities with other funds managed by the investment adviser or sub-advisers was $38,054,155 and $33,650,260 respectively, and includes realized losses of $8,463,367.
5. Board of Trustees:
The Board may include people who are officers and/or directors of the investment adviser or its affiliates. Federal securities law limits the percentage of such “interested persons” who may serve on a trust’s board, and the trust was in compliance with these limitations throughout the report period. The fund did not pay any of these interested persons for their services as trustees, but it did pay non-interested persons (independent trustees), as noted on the fund’s Statement of Operations. For information regarding the trustees, please refer to the Trustees and Officers table at the end of this report.

On September 29, 2022, the Syndicated Credit Facility was amended to run for a new 364 day period with the line of credit amount increasing to $1 billion, maturing on September 28, 2023. Under the terms of the Syndicated Credit Facility, in addition to the interest charged on any borrowings by the fund, the fund paid a commitment fee of 0.15% per annum on the fund’s proportionate share of the unused portion of the Syndicated Credit Facility.
During the period, the fund was a participant with other funds in the Fund Complex in a joint, unsecured, uncommitted $400 million line of credit (the Uncommitted Credit Facility), which matured on September 29, 2022. On September 29, 2022, the Uncommitted Credit Facility was amended to run for a new 364 day period with the line of credit amount remaining unchanged, maturing on September 28, 2023. Under the terms of the Uncommitted Credit Facility, the fund pays interest on the amount it borrows. There were no borrowings from either line of credit during the period.
The fund also has access to custodian overdraft facilities. The fund may have utilized the overdraft facility and incurred an 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.
7. Purchases and Sales of Investment Securities:

APPRECIATION | GROSS UNREALIZED
DEPRECIATION | NET UNREALIZED

(DEPRECIATION) |
| $1,154,118,992 | $75,759,897 | ($250,780,945) | ($175,021,048) |

The primary differences between book basis and tax basis unrealized appreciation or unrealized depreciation of investments are the tax deferral of losses on wash sales, the realization for tax purposes of unrealized appreciation or depreciation on futures contracts, and the realization for tax purposes of unrealized appreciation on investments in PFICs. The tax cost of the fund’s investments, disclosed above, have been adjusted from their book amounts to reflect these unrealized appreciation or depreciation differences, as applicable.

INCOME | 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 reflect the differing character of certain income items and net realized gains and losses for financial statement and tax purposes, and may result in reclassification among certain capital accounts on the financial statements. The fund may also designate a portion of the amount paid to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for tax purposes.
Permanent book and tax basis differences may result in reclassifications between components of net assets as required. The adjustments will have no impact on net assets or the results of operations.
As of October 31, 2022, 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 fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, the fund did not incur any interest or penalties.

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 of Schwab Capital Trust and Shareholders of Schwab International Opportunities Fund (formerly Laudus International MarketMasters Fund):
Opinion on the Financial Statements and Financial Highlights
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio holdings, of the Schwab International Opportunities Fund (the “Fund”), one of the funds constituting Schwab Capital Trust, as of October 31, 2022, the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the three years in the period then ended, and the related notes. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of October 31, 2022, 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 three years in the period then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The financial highlights for each of the two years in the period ended October 31, 2019 were audited by other auditors, whose report, dated December 16, 2019, expressed an unqualified opinion on such financial highlights.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund’s financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Fund in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2022, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Liquidity Risk Management Program (unaudited)
The fund has adopted and implemented a liquidity risk management program (the “program”) as required by Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The fund’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”) has designated the fund’s investment adviser, Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc., dba Schwab Asset Management, as the administrator of the program. Personnel of the investment adviser or its affiliates conduct the day-to-day operation of the program.
Under the program, the investment adviser manages a fund’s liquidity risk, which is the risk that the fund could not meet shareholder redemption requests without significant dilution of remaining shareholders’ interests in the fund. The program is reasonably designed to assess and manage a fund’s liquidity risk, taking into consideration the fund’s investment strategy and the liquidity of its portfolio investments during normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed conditions; its historical redemption history and shareholder concentrations; and its cash holdings and access to other funding sources, including the custodian overdraft facility and lines of credit. The investment adviser’s process of determining the degree of liquidity of each fund’s investments is supported by third-party liquidity assessment vendors.
The fund’s Board reviewed a report at its meeting held on September 19, 2022 prepared by the investment adviser regarding the operation and effectiveness of the program for the period June 1, 2021, through May 31, 2022, which included individual fund liquidity metrics. No significant liquidity events impacting the fund were noted in the report. In addition, the investment adviser provided its assessment that the program had been operating effectively in managing the fund’s liquidity risk.

Investment Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreement Approval
The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), requires that the continuation of a fund’s investment advisory agreement must be specifically approved (1) by the vote of the trustees or by a vote of the shareholders of the fund, and (2) by the vote of a majority of the trustees who are not parties to the investment advisory agreement or “interested persons” of any party (the Independent Trustees), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. In connection with such approvals, the fund’s trustees must request and evaluate, and the investment adviser is required to furnish, such information as may be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the investment advisory agreement.
The Board of Trustees (the Board or the Trustees, as appropriate) calls and holds one or more meetings each year that are dedicated, in whole or in part, to considering whether to renew the investment advisory and administration agreement between Schwab Capital Trust (the Trust) and Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (dba Schwab Asset Management) (the investment adviser) with respect to the existing funds in the Trust, including Schwab International Opportunities Fund (formerly, Laudus International MarketMasters Fund) (the Fund), and the individual sub-advisory agreements between the investment adviser and American Century Investment Management, Inc., Baillie Gifford Overseas Limited (Baillie Gifford), Harris Associates L.P. (Harris), and Mondrian Investment Partners Limited (Mondrian) relating to the Fund (each, a Sub-Adviser and collectively, the Sub-Advisers). Such investment advisory and administration agreement and sub-advisory agreements are collectively referred to herein as the Agreements. The Trustees also review certain other agreements pursuant to which the investment adviser provides investment advisory services to certain other registered investment companies. In preparation for the meeting(s), the Board requests and reviews a wide variety of materials provided by the investment adviser and the Sub-Advisers, including information about their affiliates, personnel, business goals and priorities, profitability, third-party oversight, corporate structure and operations. As part of the renewal process, the Independent Trustees’ legal counsel, on behalf of the Independent Trustees, sends an information request letter to the investment adviser and the investment adviser sends an information request letter to each of the Sub-Advisers seeking certain relevant information. The responses by the investment adviser and the Sub-Advisers are provided to the Trustees in the Board materials for their review prior to their meeting, and the Trustees are provided with the opportunity to request any additional materials. The Board also receives data provided by an independent provider of investment company data. 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 the Fund’s operations and performance, legal and compliance matters, risk management, portfolio turnover, and sales and marketing activity. In considering the renewal, the Independent Trustees receive advice from Independent Trustees’ legal counsel, including a memorandum regarding the responsibilities of trustees for the approval of investment advisory agreements. In addition, the Independent Trustees participate in question and answer sessions with representatives of the investment adviser and meet in executive session outside the presence of Fund management. The Board also discusses with the investment adviser the Fund’s operations and the investment adviser’s ability, consistent with the “manager of managers” structure of the Fund, to (i) identify and recommend to the Trustees sub-advisers for the Fund, (ii) monitor and oversee the performance and investment capabilities of each Sub-Adviser, and (iii) recommend the termination and/or replacement of a Sub-Adviser when appropriate.
The Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, considered information relating specifically to the continuance of the Agreements with respect to the Fund at meetings held on May 16, 2022 and June 8, 2022, and approved the renewal of the Agreements with respect to the Fund for an additional one-year term at the meeting on June 8, 2022 called for the purpose of voting on such approval. The Board also noted that, at a meeting held on December 7, 2021, it had considered and approved amendments to the investment advisory and administration agreement and the sub-advisory agreements with each of American Century, Harris and Mondrian to reduce the advisory and sub-advisory fees with respect to the Fund.
The Board’s approval of the continuance of the Agreements with respect to the Fund was based on consideration and evaluation of a variety of specific factors discussed at these meetings and at prior meetings, including:
| 1. | the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund under the Agreements, including the resources of the investment adviser and its affiliates, and the Sub-Advisers, dedicated to the Fund; |
| 2. | the Fund’s investment performance and how it compared to that of certain other comparable mutual funds and benchmark data; |
| 3. | the Fund’s expenses and how those expenses compared to those of certain other similar mutual funds; |
| 4. | the profitability of the investment adviser and its affiliates, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (Schwab), with respect to the Fund, including both direct and indirect benefits accruing to the investment adviser and its affiliates, as well as the profitability of the Sub-Advisers; and |
Schwab International Opportunities Fund | Annual Report

| 5. | the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Fund grows and whether fee levels in the Agreements reflect those economies of scale for the benefit of Fund investors. |
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Board considered the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund and the resources of the investment adviser and its affiliates and the Sub-Advisers dedicated to the Fund. In this regard, the Trustees evaluated, among other things, the investment adviser’s and the Sub-Advisers’ experience, track record, compliance program, resources dedicated to hiring and retaining skilled personnel and specialized talent, and information security resources. The Trustees also considered information provided by the investment adviser and the Sub-Advisers relating to the services and support provided with respect to the Fund’s portfolio management team, portfolio strategy, and internal investment guidelines, as well as trading infrastructure, liquidity management, product design and analysis, shareholder communications, securities valuation, fund accounting and custody, and vendor and risk oversight. The Trustees also considered investments the investment adviser has made in its infrastructure, including modernizing the investment adviser’s technology and use of data, increasing expertise in key areas (including portfolio management and trade operations), and improving business continuity, cybersecurity, due diligence, risk management processes, and information security programs, which are designed to provide enhanced services to the Fund and its shareholders. The Trustees considered Schwab’s overall financial condition and its reputation as a full service brokerage firm as well as the wide range of products, services and account features that benefit Funds shareholders who are brokerage clients of Schwab. The Board also considered the nature, extent and quality of the sub-advisory services provided by the Sub-Advisers to the Fund and the resources each dedicates to the Fund. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the investment adviser and the Sub-Advisers to the Fund and the resources of the investment adviser, its affiliates, and the Sub-Advisers dedicated to the Fund supported renewal of the Agreements with respect to the Fund.
Fund Performance. The Board considered the Fund’s performance in determining whether to renew the Agreements with respect to the Fund. Specifically, the Trustees considered the Fund’s performance relative to a peer category of other mutual funds and an applicable benchmark index, in light of total return and market trends, as well as in consideration of the Fund’s investment style and strategy attributes and disclosures. As part of this review, the Trustees considered the composition of the peer category, selection criteria and the reputation of the independent provider of investment company data who prepared the peer category analysis. In addition, the Trustees considered whether irrespective of relative performance, each Sub-Adviser’s absolute performance was
consistent with expectations for such Sub-Adviser’s unique investment methodology. The Trustees further considered the level of Fund performance in the context of their review of Fund expenses and adviser and Sub-Adviser profitability discussed below and also noted that the Board and a designated committee of the Board review performance throughout the year. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the performance of the Fund supported renewal of the Agreements 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 similar mutual funds, such peer groups and comparisons having been selected and calculated by an independent provider of investment company data. The investment adviser reported to the Board, and the Board took into account, the risk assumed by the investment adviser in the development of the Fund and provision of services as well as the competitive marketplace for financial products. The Trustees considered the effects of the investment adviser’s and Schwab’s practice of waiving certain fees to prevent total annual operating expenses of the Fund from exceeding a specified cap. The Trustees also considered the investment adviser’s contractual commitment to keep the Fund’s expense cap for so long as the investment adviser serves as the adviser to the Fund. The Trustees also considered fees charged by the investment adviser and the Sub-Advisers to other mutual funds and to other types of accounts, but, with respect to such other types of accounts, accorded less weight to such comparisons due to the different legal, regulatory, compliance and operating features of mutual funds as compared to these other types of accounts, and any differences in the nature and scope of the services the investment adviser provides to these other accounts, as well as differences in the market for these types of accounts. 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. The Trustees considered the compensation flowing to the investment adviser and its affiliates, directly or indirectly and reviewed profitability on a pre-tax basis, without regard to distribution expenses. The Trustees also reviewed profitability of the investment adviser relating to the Schwab fund complex as a whole, noting the benefits to Fund shareholders of being part of the Schwab fund complex, including the allocations of certain fixed costs across the Fund and other funds in the complex. The Trustees also considered any other benefits derived by the investment adviser from its relationship with the Fund, such as whether, by virtue of its management of the Fund, the investment adviser obtains investment information or other research resources that aid it in providing advisory services to other clients. The Trustees considered whether the compensation and profitability with
Schwab International Opportunities Fund | Annual Report
Schwab International Opportunities Fund
respect to the Fund under the Agreements and other service agreements were reasonable and justified in light of the quality of all services rendered to the Fund by the investment adviser and its affiliates. The Trustees noted that the investment adviser continues to invest substantial sums in its business in order to provide enhanced research capabilities, services and systems to benefit the Fund.
In addition, the Trustees also considered the compensation received by each Sub-Adviser, directly or indirectly. The Trustees also considered any other benefits derived by each Sub-Adviser from its relationship with the Fund, such as whether, by virtue of its management of the Fund, such Sub-Adviser obtains investment information or other research resources that aid it in providing advisory services to other clients. With respect to each Sub-Adviser, the Trustees considered whether the compensation and profitability under the applicable Agreement were reasonable and justified in light of the quality of all services rendered to the Fund by such Sub-Adviser, and its affiliates. The Board also considered the profitability of each Sub-Adviser with respect to the sub-advisory services it provides to the Fund, although, when doing so, the Board took into account the fact that the Sub-Advisers are compensated by the investment adviser, and not by the Fund directly, and such compensation with respect to any Sub-Adviser reflects an arms-length negotiation between the Sub-Adviser and the investment adviser. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the profitability of the investment adviser and the Sub-Advisers is reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreements with respect to the Fund.
Economies of Scale. Although the Trustees recognized the difficulty of determining economies of scale with precision, the Trustees considered the potential existence of any economies of scale and whether those are passed along to the Fund’s shareholders through (i) the enhancement of services provided to the Fund in return for fees paid, including through investments by the investment adviser in the investment adviser’s infrastructure, including modernizing the investment
adviser’s technology and use of data, increasing expertise and capabilities in key areas (including portfolio and trade operations), and improving business continuity, cybersecurity, due diligence and information security programs, which are designed to provide enhanced services to the Fund and its shareholders; (ii) graduated investment advisory fee schedules or unitary fee structures, fee waivers, or expense caps by the investment adviser and its affiliates for those funds in the Schwab fund complex with such features; and (iii) pricing the Fund to scale and keeping overall expenses down as the Fund grows. The Trustees acknowledged that, the investment adviser has shared any economies of scale with the Fund by investing in the investment adviser’s infrastructure, as discussed above, over time and that the investment adviser’s internal costs of providing investment management, technology, administrative, legal and compliance services to the Fund continue to increase as a result of regulatory or other developments. The Trustees considered that the investment adviser and its affiliates employ contractual expense caps to protect shareholders from high fees, including, for example, when fund assets are relatively small. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the Fund obtains reasonable benefits from economies of scale.
In the course of their deliberations, the Trustees may have accorded different weights to various factors and did not identify any particular information or factor that was all important or controlling. Based on the Trustees’ deliberation and their evaluation of the information described above, the Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, approved the continuation of the Agreements with respect to the Fund and concluded that the compensation under the Agreements with respect to the Fund is fair and reasonable in light of the services provided and the related expenses borne by the investment adviser and its affiliates and such other matters as the Trustees considered to be relevant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment.

Schwab International Opportunities Fund | Annual Report
Schwab International Opportunities Fund
asset allocation The practice of dividing a portfolio among different asset classes, with each asset class assigned a particular percentage.
asset class A group of securities with similar structure and basic characteristics. Stocks, bonds and cash are the three main examples of asset classes.
Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index An index that is a broad-based benchmark measuring the performance of the U.S. investment grade, taxable bond market, including U.S. Treasuries, government-related and corporate bonds, mortgage pass-through securities, commercial mortgage-backed securities, and asset-backed securities that are publicly available for sale in the United States. To be eligible for inclusion in the index, securities must be fixed rate, non-convertible, U.S. dollar-denominated with at least $300 million or more of outstanding face value and have one or more years remaining to maturity. The index excludes certain types of securities, including tax-exempt state and local government series bonds, structured notes embedded with swaps or other special features, private placements, floating rate securities, inflation-linked bonds and Eurobonds. The index is market capitalization weighted and the securities in the index are updated on the last business day of each month.
Bloomberg US Treasury Bills 1–3 Month Index An index that includes all publicly issued zero-coupon U.S. Treasury Bills that have a remaining maturity of less than 3 months but more than 1 month, are rated investment grade and have $300 million or more of outstanding face value. It excludes zero-coupon STRIPS.
bond A security representing a loan from the investor to the issuer. A bond typically pays interest at a fixed rate (the coupon rate) until a specified date (the maturity date), at which time the issuer returns the money borrowed (principal or face value) to the bondholder. Because of their structure, bonds are sometimes called “fixed-income securities” or “debt securities.”
An individual bond is subject to the credit risk of the issuer. Changes in interest rates can affect a bond’s market value prior to call or maturity. There is no guarantee that a bond’s yield to call or maturity will provide a positive return over the rate of inflation.
bond fund A bond fund is subject to the same credit, interest rate, and inflation risks as bonds. In addition, a bond fund incurs ongoing fees and expenses. A bond fund’s net asset value will fluctuate with the price of the underlying bonds and the portfolio turnover activity; return of principal is not guaranteed.
cap, capitalization See “market cap.”
capital gain, capital loss the difference between the amount paid for an investment and its value at a later time. If the investment has been sold, the capital gain or loss is considered a realized gain or loss. If the investment is still held, the capital gain or loss is considered unrealized appreciation or depreciation.
expense ratio The amount that is taken from a mutual fund’s assets each year to cover the fund’s operating expenses. An expense ratio of 0.50% means that a fund’s expenses amount to half of one percent of its average net assets a year.
market cap, market capitalization The value of a company as determined by the total value of all shares of its stock outstanding.
MSCI EAFE Index (Net) A free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed markets in Europe, Australasia, and the Far East. 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.
MSCI Emerging Markets Index (Net) A free float-adjusted market capitalization weighted index that is designed to measure equity market performance in the global emerging markets. This series approximates the minimum possible dividend reinvestment. The 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 mutual fund. NAV is calculated by taking the fund’s total assets, subtracting liabilities, and dividing by the number of shares outstanding.
outstanding shares, shares outstanding When speaking of a company or mutual fund, indicates all shares currently held by investors.
price-to-book ratio (P/B) The market price of a company’s stock compared with its “book value.” A mutual fund’s P/B is the weighted average of the P/B of all stocks in the fund’s portfolio.
price-to-earnings ratio (P/E) The market price of a company’s stock compared with earnings over the past year. A mutual fund’s P/E is the weighted average of the P/E of all stocks in the fund’s portfolio.
restricted and illiquid securities Restricted securities are securities that are subject to legal restrictions on their sale. Restricted securities generally can be sold in privately negotiated transactions, pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 (the 1933 Act), or in a registered public offering. Certain restricted securities, such as Section 4(a)(2) commercial paper and Rule 144A securities under the 1933 Act, may be considered to be liquid if they meet the criteria for liquidity established by the Board. Illiquid securities generally are any securities that cannot be disposed of promptly and in the ordinary course of business at approximately the amount at which a fund has valued the instruments. The liquidity of a fund’s investments is monitored under the supervision and direction of the Board. Investments currently not considered liquid include repurchase agreements not maturing within seven days and certain restricted securities.
return on equity (ROE) The average yearly rate of return for each dollar of investors’ money, measured over the past five years.
Russell 2000 Index An index that measures the performance of the 2,000 smallest companies in the Russell 3000 Index. The Russell 3000 Index measures the performance of the largest 3,000 U.S. companies representing approximately 98% of the investable U.S. equity market.
S&P 500 Index An index that is designed to measure the performance of 500 leading publicly traded companies from a broad range of industries.
stock A share of ownership, or equity, in the issuing company.
total return The percentage that an investor would have earned or lost on an investment in the fund assuming dividends and distributions were reinvested.
weighted average For mutual funds, an average that gives the same weight to each security as the security represents in the fund’s portfolio.
yield The income paid out by an investment, expressed as a percentage of the investment’s market value.

Management and the funds
covered in this report.
Dear Shareholder,
Geopolitical, economic, and market challenges abounded during the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022. Although the period started off strong, with markets reaching new highs in the final months of 2021, the subsequent 10 months were beset by rapidly rising inflation, sharply climbing interest rates, steeply declining stock prices, and the onset of a war in Europe as Russia invaded Ukraine. Economic growth in the United States and most of the world slowed. By the end of the period, the S&P 500® Index, a bellwether for the overall U.S. stock market, lost nearly 20% of its value from its early-January 2022 peak and returned -14.6% for the reporting period. The MSCI EAFE® Index (Net)*, a broad measure of developed international equity performance, declined by more than 25% between early-January 2022 highs and the end of the reporting period and returned -23.0% for the reporting period. During the reporting period, despite negative returns, each of the Schwab Active Equity Funds outperformed its respective index.
While we are pleased with the funds’ performance relative to their indices, at Schwab Asset Management, we recognize that today’s turbulent investment environment may be unsettling for many investors. Market declines and volatility can rattle confidence even in well-established investment plans and can cause investors to impulsively react to market movements. At such times, it is helpful to remember that, even in the face of market turmoil and volatility, most investors are best served by maintaining a diversified portfolio that reflects their risk tolerance and goals.
The Schwab Active Equity Funds take on the job of sifting through the latest market developments and researching company fundamentals, identifying trends that could impact valuations, and factoring that analysis into investment decisions. The funds seek to deliver consistent, risk-adjusted returns over the long-term through a disciplined investment process that uses both quantitative and fundamental research.
Thank you for investing with Schwab Asset Management, and for trusting us to help you achieve your financial goals.

In addition, you can find further details about these funds by visiting our website at www.schwabassetmanagement.com. We are also happy to hear from you at 1-877-824-5615.
Sincerely,
“ During the reporting period, despite negative returns, each of the Schwab Active Equity Funds outperformed its respective index.”
Past performance is no guarantee of future results.
Diversification and asset allocation strategies do not ensure a profit and cannot protect against losses in a declining market.

The Investment Environment
For the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, U.S. and international equity markets lost ground. After several key market indices hit record highs through early January 2022, equity markets around the globe began to slide in reaction to growing headwinds, including accelerating inflation and the increasing likelihood of rising interest rates. In late February 2022, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine drove oil prices to over $100 per barrel for the first time since 2014 and roiled stock markets around the world. Albeit decelerating, COVID-19 continued to weigh on economies worldwide, with highly transmissible variants and subvariants keeping infection rates high in many areas. As the reporting period progressed, economic growth slowed, interest rates rose, and recession fears mounted. The U.S. dollar continued to exhibit strength against a basket of foreign currencies, ending the reporting period significantly stronger and generally reducing the returns of overseas investments in U.S. dollar terms. For the reporting period, the S&P 500® Index, a bellwether for the overall U.S. stock market, returned -14.61%. U.S. small-cap stocks underperformed U.S. large-cap stocks, with the Russell 2000® Index and the Russell 1000® Index returning -18.54% and -16.38%, respectively. Among U.S. large-cap stocks, growth stocks significantly underperformed value stocks, with the Russell 1000® Growth Index and Russell 1000® Value Index returning -24.60% and -7.00%, respectively. Among U.S. industry sectors, only energy generated strong positive returns, driven by soaring oil and gas prices. Traditionally defensive sectors, such as consumer staples, utilities, and health care, tended to outperform the market average, while cyclically sensitive sectors, such as consumer discretionary, real estate, and information technology, lagged. Outside the United States, the MSCI EAFE® Index (Net)*, a broad measure of developed international equity performance, returned -23.00% for the reporting period.
After a recovery from the dramatic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic through the end of 2021, U.S. gross domestic product (GDP) increased at an annualized rate of 6.9% for the fourth quarter. However, amid fading government stimuli, ongoing supply chain disruptions, persisting inflation, a tight labor market, and a widening U.S. trade deficit, GDP decreased at an annualized rate of -1.6% and -0.6% for the first and second quarters of 2022, respectively. GDP growth was positive for the third quarter of 2022, increasing at an annualized rate of 2.9%, driven primarily by energy exports. Consumer spending also grew but at a slower pace than in the second quarter. Inflation remained stubbornly

high, hitting a 40-year high in June due to imbalances in the labor market, supply chain bottlenecks, and soaring energy costs, before falling slightly by the end of the reporting period. The unemployment rate remained low, ending the reporting period near pre-pandemic lows.
Outside the United States, global economies also wrestled with the fallout of the COVID-19 pandemic, high energy costs, rising inflation, and the war in Ukraine. After spiking in early March 2022 as sanctions were imposed on Russian imports—and again in June on supply-and-demand imbalances—oil prices generally fell through the rest of the reporting period, ending at just over $86 per barrel. The eurozone, heavily impacted by the war in Ukraine and associated commodity price spikes, managed to eke out small gains in GDP for the fourth quarter of 2021 and first and second quarters of 2022, as COVID-19 restrictions eased and tourism increased in response to pent-up demand. The United Kingdom also posted small gains in GDP growth for the fourth quarter of 2021 and first and second quarters of 2022. Among emerging markets, China’s GDP growth rate remained positive but slowed notably as China dealt with numerous headwinds including the political landscape, an emphasis on domestic consumption over globalization, lockdowns and quarantines, and a severe property downturn as a result of stalled demand, a decline in financing for property development, halted construction on in progress projects, and homeowners pausing mortgage payments on incomplete builds. India’s GDP growth also remained positive over the reporting period, particularly in the second quarter of 2022, on rising consumer demand and a rapid decline in COVID-19 cases.
Monetary policy around the world varied. In the United States, after maintaining the federal funds rate in a range of 0.00% to 0.25% through mid-March 2022, as inflation continued to rise and indicators of economic activity and employment continued to strengthen, the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) shifted its stance. After issuing successively stronger signals that interest rates could begin to rise sooner in 2022 than previously anticipated, the Fed raised the federal funds rate five times during the reporting period—by 0.25% in mid-March, 0.50% in early May, 0.75% in mid-June, 0.75% in late July, and 0.75% in late September—in its ongoing efforts to achieve a return to price stability. The federal funds rate ended the reporting period in a range of 3.00% to 3.25%. In June, the Fed also began to reduce the $9 trillion in assets it held on its balance sheet, vowing to be even more aggressive than during its last round of quantitative tightening between 2017 and 2019. Outside the United States, central banks were similarly responsive. After holding its policy rate unchanged since March 2015, at 0.00%, the European Central Bank raised its interest rate three times over the reporting period in an effort to dampen demand and control inflation, which in October 2022 rose into double-digits. The Bank of England raised its key official bank rate seven times during the reporting period, bringing borrowing costs to a 13-year high as the Bank of England wrestles with soaring inflation. In contrast, the Bank of Japan continued to uphold its short-term interest rate target of -0.1%, unchanged since 2016, but raised its inflation forecast at its October 2022 meeting.

Schwab Core Equity Fund as of October 31, 2022
The Schwab Core Equity Fund (the fund) seeks long-term capital growth. To pursue its investment objective, the fund invests primarily in U.S. stocks. Under normal circumstances, the fund pursues its goal by investing at least 80% of its net assets (including, for this purpose, any borrowings for investment purposes) in equity securities of U.S. companies. The fund typically invests in common stocks of U.S. companies that have market capitalizations of approximately $500 million or more at the time of purchase. To aid its stock selection, the fund uses Schwab Equity Ratings® and employs a research-driven, “bottom-up” approach focusing primarily on individual securities. For more information concerning the fund’s investment objective, strategies, and risks, please see the fund’s prospectus.

Performance. The fund returned -13.84% for the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, outperforming the S&P 500® Index (the index), which the fund uses for performance comparisons. The index returned -14.61% for the reporting period.
Positioning and Strategies. The fund’s overweight investment in EOG Resources, Inc., which explores, develops, produces, and markets natural gas and crude oil, enhanced the fund’s relative performance. The fund’s holdings of EOG Resources returned approximately 61% for the reporting period. EOG Resources benefitted from rising oil and gas prices as Russia invaded Ukraine and the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) cut production.
The fund’s overweight investment in Exxon Mobil Corp., which operates petroleum and petro chemicals businesses, also contributed to the fund’s relative performance as a result of rising oil and gas prices as Russia invaded Ukraine and OPEC cut production. The fund’s holdings of Exxon Mobil returned approximately 80% for the reporting period.
The fund’s overweight investment in Alphabet, Inc., which provides web-based search, advertisements, maps, software applications, mobile operating systems, consumer content, enterprise solutions, commerce, and hardware products, weighed on the fund’s relative performance. The fund’s Class A holdings of Alphabet returned approximately -36% for the reporting period. Alphabet was impacted by concerns about advertising spending on its platform amid fears of a recession.
The fund’s overweight investment in VF Corp., an international lifestyle apparel and footwear company, also detracted from the fund’s relative performance as a result of deteriorating sales and elevated inventories in some of its value-oriented brands. The fund’s holdings of VF returned approximately -59% for the reporting period.

As the reporting period progressed, economic growth slowed, interest rates rose, and recession fears mounted. Over the reporting period, value stocks outperformed growth stocks, and interest rates rose, leading to outperformance of dividend-paying stocks compared to the broader stock market.
Performance. The fund returned -3.96% for the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, outperforming the Russell 1000® Value Index (the index), which the fund uses for performance comparisons. The index returned -7.00% for the reporting period.
As of October 31, 2022, the fund’s dividend yield was 2.10%, lower than the 2.27% dividend yield of the index. As of October 31, 2022, the fund’s 30-Day SEC yield was 2.15%.
Positioning and Strategies. The fund’s overweight investment in Lockheed Martin Corp., a global security company that primarily researches, designs, develops, manufactures, and integrates advanced technology products and services, enhanced the fund’s relative performance. The fund’s holdings of Lockheed Martin returned approximately 51% for the reporting period. Lockheed Martin benefitted as a result of the expectation of increased military spending following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and threats to Taiwan from China. The fund’s holdings of Lockheed Martin returned approximately 51% for the reporting period.
The fund’s overweight investment in Amgen, Inc., an independent biotechnology medicines company that discovers, develops, manufactures, and markets medicines for illnesses, also contributed to the fund’s relative performance as a result of optimism around forthcoming data on the company’s obesity drug. The fund’s holdings of Amgen returned approximately 35% for the reporting period.
The fund’s position in Microsoft Corp., which develops, manufactures, licenses, sells, and supports software products, weighed on the fund’s relative performance. The fund’s holdings of Microsoft returned approximately -29% for the reporting period. Rising interest rates weighed on Microsoft’s earnings.
The overweight investment in T. Rowe Price Group, a financial services holding company, also detracted from the fund’s relative performance as a result of outflows in assets under management and difficult market conditions that reduced fee earning assets. The fund sold its position in T. Rowe Price in May 2022. The fund’s holdings of T. Rowe Price returned approximately -42% while held by the fund.

Performance. The fund returned -22.45% for the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, outperforming the Russell 1000® Growth Index (the index), which the fund uses for performance comparisons. The index returned -24.60% for the reporting period.
Positioning and Strategies. The fund’s overweight investment in EOG Resources, Inc., which explores, develops, produces, and markets natural gas and crude oil, enhanced the fund’s relative performance. The fund’s holdings of EOG Resources returned approximately 61% for the reporting period. EOG Resources benefitted from rising oil and gas prices as Russia invaded Ukraine and the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) cut production.
The fund’s overweight investment in Lockheed Martin Corp., a global security company that primarily researches, designs, develops, manufactures, and integrates advanced technology products and services, also contributed to the fund’s relative performance as a result of the expectation of increased military spending following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and threats to Taiwan from China. The fund’s holdings of Lockheed Martin returned approximately 51% for the reporting period.
The fund’s overweight investment in Meta Platforms, Inc., which operates as a social technology company, weighed on the fund’s relative performance. The fund’s Class A holdings of Meta returned approximately -71% for the reporting period. Meta suffered from a deterioration of fundamentals of reduced growth coupled with intensive spending on its metaverse initiative.
The fund not holding AbbVie, Inc., which researches and develops pharmaceutical products, during the reporting period also detracted from the fund’s relative performance. AbbVie returned approximately 33% for the index during the reporting period. AbbVie benefitted from strong sales of its immunology medications.

Schwab Small-Cap Equity Fund as of October 31, 2022
The Schwab Small-Cap Equity Fund (the fund) seeks long-term capital growth. Under normal circumstances, the fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (including, for this purpose, any borrowings for investment purposes) in small-cap equity securities. To aid its stock selection, the fund uses Schwab Equity Ratings®. For more information concerning the fund’s investment objective, strategies, and risks, please see the fund’s prospectus.
Market Highlights. For the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, U.S. and international equity markets lost ground. After several key market indices hit record highs through early January 2022, equity markets around the globe began to slide in reaction to growing headwinds, including accelerating inflation and the increasing likelihood of rising interest rates. In late February 2022, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine drove oil prices to over $100 per barrel for the first time since 2014 and roiled stock markets around the world. Albeit decelerating, COVID-19 continued to weigh on economies worldwide, with highly transmissible variants and subvariants keeping infection rates high in many areas. As the reporting period progressed, economic growth slowed, interest rates rose, and recession fears mounted. U.S. small-cap stocks underperformed U.S. large-cap stocks.
Performance. The fund returned -10.25% for the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, outperforming the Russell 2000® Index (the index), which the fund uses for performance comparisons. The index returned -18.54% for the reporting period.
Positioning and Strategies. The fund’s overweight investment in Extreme Networks, Inc., which provides technology solutions, enhanced the fund’s relative performance. The fund’s holdings of Extreme Networks returned approximately 83% for the reporting period. Extreme Networks benefitted from strong demand trends and execution by management as well as easing of supply chain constraints.
The fund’s overweight investment in PBF Energy, Inc., which operates as an independent petroleum refiner and supplier, also contributed to the fund’s relative performance as a result of rising oil prices as Russia invaded Ukraine and the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) cut production. The fund’s Class A holdings of PBF Energy returned approximately 155% for the reporting period.
The fund’s overweight investment in Domo, Inc., which designs and develops enterprise software, weighed on the fund’s relative performance. The fund’s Class B holdings of Domo returned approximately -80% for the reporting period. Domo was impacted by turnover in its enterprise sales force as well as a lack of large deals.
The fund’s overweight investment in Codexis, Inc., which develops biocatalysts for the pharmaceutical and fine chemicals industries, also detracted from the fund’s relative performance as a result of scaled back research and development budgets from biotechnology partners. The fund’s holdings of Codexis returned approximately -85% for the reporting period.

Schwab Health Care Fund as of October 31, 2022
The Schwab Health Care Fund (the fund) seeks long-term capital growth. To pursue its goal, the fund primarily invests in equity securities issued by companies in the health care sector. The fund uses Schwab Equity Ratings® to aid its U.S. stock selection and Schwab Equity Ratings International® to aid its international stock selection. For more information concerning the fund’s investment objective, strategies, and risks, please see the fund’s prospectus.
Market Highlights. For the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, U.S. and international equity markets lost ground. After several key market indices hit record highs through early January 2022, equity markets around the globe began to slide in reaction to growing headwinds, including accelerating inflation and the increasing likelihood of rising interest rates. In late February 2022, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine drove oil prices to over $100 per barrel for the first time since 2014 and roiled stock markets around the world. Albeit decelerating, COVID-19 continued to weigh on economies worldwide, with highly transmissible variants and subvariants keeping infection rates high in many areas. As the reporting period progressed, economic growth slowed, interest rates rose, and recession fears mounted. The U.S. dollar continued to exhibit strength against a basket of foreign currencies, ending the reporting period significantly stronger, and generally reducing the returns of overseas investments in U.S. dollar terms. U.S. health care stocks outperformed broader global stock markets, including the S&P 500® Index and MSCI EAFE® Index.
Performance. The fund returned -3.82% for the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, outperforming the Dow Jones Global Health Care Index (the index), which the fund uses for performance comparisons. The index returned -10.03% for the reporting period.
Positioning and Strategies. The fund’s overweight investment in Vertex Pharmaceuticals, Inc., which discovers, develops, and commercializes pharmaceutical products, enhanced the fund’s relative performance. The fund’s holdings of Vertex Pharmaceuticals returned approximately 69% for the reporting period. Vertex Pharmaceuticals benefitted from growth in their cystic fibrosis franchise and an improving pipeline.
The fund’s overweight investment in Bristol-Myers Squibb Co., which develops, licenses, manufactures, markets, and sells pharmaceutical and nutritional products, also contributed to the fund’s relative performance as a result of earnings growth and decent performance from new launches. The fund’s holdings of Bristol-Myers Squibb returned approximately 37% for the reporting period.
The fund’s overweight investment in Getinge AB, which provides hospitals and life science institutions with products and solutions that aim to improve clinical results and optimize workflows, weighed on the fund’s relative performance. The fund gradually reduced its position in Getinge throughout the period. The fund’s Class B shares of Getinge returned approximately -52% in U.S. dollar terms for the reporting period. Getinge was impacted by a normalization of sales following boosts in sales related to COVID-19.
The fund’s overweight investment in Sonova Holding AG, which provides hearing care solutions, also detracted from the fund’s relative performance as a result of changes in the hearing market as well as higher labor and material costs that have slowed the business. The fund’s holdings of Sonova returned approximately -42% for the reporting period.

Market Highlights. For the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, U.S. and international equity markets lost ground.

Performance. The fund returned -22.40% for the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, outperforming the MSCI EAFE® Index (Net) (the index), which the fund uses for performance comparisons. The index returned -23.00%1 for the reporting period.
Positioning and Strategies. The fund’s overweight investment in OCI N.V., which produces and distributes of natural gas-based fertilizers and industrial chemicals, enhanced the fund’s relative performance. The fund’s holdings of OCI returned approximately 54% in U.S. dollar terms for the reporting period. OCI benefitted from strong demand for nitrogen fertilizers and industrial chemicals. The fund increased its position in OCI during the reporting period.
The fund’s overweight investment in Equinor A.S.A., an energy company, also contributed to the fund’s relative performance as a result of its role as a gas provider to Europe as oil and gas prices rose as Russia invaded Ukraine and the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) cut production. The fund’s holdings of Equinor returned approximately 50% in U.S. dollar terms for the reporting period.
The fund’s underweight position in Shell plc, which explores and refines petroleum products, weighed on the fund’s relative performance. The fund’s holdings of Shell returned approximately -1% in U.S. dollar terms for the reporting period. The fund trimmed its position in Shell in late 2021.
The fund’s overweight position in Deutsche Post AG, a logistics company, also detracted from the fund’s relative performance as a result of concerns about rising geopolitical and recession risks. The fund’s holdings of Deutsche Post returned approximately -40% in U.S. dollar terms for the reporting period.

Fund Expenses (Unaudited)
Examples for a $1,000 Investment
As a fund shareholder, you may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, transfer agent and shareholder services fees, and other fund expenses.
The expense examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing cost (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare this cost with the ongoing cost of investing in other mutual funds. These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested for six months beginning May 1, 2022 and held through October 31, 2022.
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. 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.

Each fund in this report offers one share class. Shares are bought and sold at closing net asset value per share (NAV), which is the price for all outstanding shares of a fund. Each share has a par value of 1/1,000 of a cent, and the funds’ Board of Trustees (the Board) may authorize the issuance of as many shares as necessary.
Each fund maintains its own account for purposes of holding assets and accounting, and is considered a separate entity for tax purposes. Within its account, each fund may also keep certain assets in segregated accounts, as required by securities law.
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the funds use in their preparation of financial statements. The funds follow the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) 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 may invest in certain mutual funds and exchange-traded funds (ETFs), which are referred to as "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) and are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
(a) Security Valuation:
Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Board has designated authority to a Valuation Designee, the funds’ investment adviser, to make fair valuation determinations under adopted procedures, subject to Board oversight. The investment adviser has formed a Pricing Committee to administer the pricing and valuation of portfolio securities and other assets and liabilities and to ensure that prices used for internal purposes or provided by third parties reasonably reflect fair value. The Valuation Designee may utilize independent pricing services, quotations from securities and financial instrument dealers and other market sources to determine fair value.
Schwab Active Equity Funds | Annual Report
Schwab Active Equity Funds
Financial Notes (continued)
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
Securities held in the funds’ portfolio are valued every business day. The following valuation policies and procedures are used by the Valuation Designee 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 the mean of 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.
• Foreign equity security fair valuation: The Valuation Designee has adopted procedures to fair value foreign equity securities that are traded in markets that close prior to the valuation of a fund’s holdings. By fair valuing securities whose prices may have been affected by events occurring after the close of trading, the Valuation Designee seeks to establish prices that investors might expect to realize upon the current sales of these securities. This methodology is designed to deter “arbitrage” market timers, who seek to exploit delays between the change in the value of a fund’s portfolio holdings and the NAV of a fund’s shares and seeks to help ensure that the prices at which a fund’s shares are purchased and redeemed are fair and do not result in dilution of shareholder interest or other harm to shareholders. When fair value pricing is used at the open or close of a reporting period, it may cause a temporary divergence between the return of a fund and that of its comparative index or benchmark.
• Futures contracts: Futures contracts are valued at their settlement prices as of the close of their exchanges.
• Mutual funds: Mutual funds are valued at their respective NAVs.
• Cash management sweep time deposits: Balances held in cash management sweep time deposits were accounted for on a cost basis, which approximates fair value.
• Securities for which no quoted value is available: The Valuation Designee has adopted procedures to fair value a fund’s securities when market prices are not “readily available” or are unreliable. For example, a security may be fair valued 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. Fair value determinations are made in good faith in accordance with adopted valuation procedures. The Valuation Designee considers a number of factors, including unobservable market inputs, when arriving at fair value. The Valuation Designee may employ methods 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. 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.
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 methods 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 it is determined 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 the Valuation Designee’s 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 investments — 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, mutual funds and futures contracts. Investments in mutual funds are valued daily at their NAVs, which are classified as Level 1 prices, without consideration to the classification level of the underlying securities 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. In addition, international securities whose markets close hours before the valuation of a fund’s holdings

Financial Notes (continued)
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
may require fair valuations due to significant movement in the U.S. markets occurring after the daily close of foreign markets. The Valuation Designee has approved a vendor that calculates fair valuations of international equity securities based on a number of factors that appear to correlate to the movements in the U.S. markets.
• Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Valuation Designee’s 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 readily available for these securities, one or more valuation methods are used for which sufficient and reliable data is available. The inputs used 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 in the absence of market information. Assumptions used due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting fair value and therefore the funds’ results of operations.
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The levels associated with valuing the funds’ investments as of October 31, 2022 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 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 value may change daily.
Passive Foreign Investment Companies: Certain funds may own shares in certain foreign corporations that meet the Internal Revenue Code definition of a Passive Foreign Investment Company (PFIC). The funds may elect for tax purposes to mark-to-market annually the shares of each PFIC lot held and would be required to distribute as ordinary income to shareholders any such marked to-market gains (as well as any gains realized on sale).
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 pursuant to 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 or the lending agent to terminate any loan at any given time and the securities must be returned within the earlier of the standard trade settlement period or the specified time period under the relevant securities lending agreement. 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. The aggregate fair 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. Securities lending fees paid to the unaffiliated lending agents start at 9% of gross lending revenue, with subsequent breakpoints to a low of 5%. In this context, the gross lending revenue equals the income received from the investment of cash collateral and fees paid by borrowers less any rebates paid to the borrowers. Any expenses charged by the cash collateral fund are in addition to these fees. All remaining revenue is retained by the fund, as applicable. No portion of lending revenue is paid to or retained by the investment adviser or any of its affiliates.
As of October 31, 2022, Schwab International Core Equity Fund had securities on loan, all of which were classified as common stocks. The value of the securities on loan and the related collateral as of October 31, 2022, are disclosed in the fund’s Portfolio Holdings and Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
Cash Management Transactions: Effective May 23, 2022 Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. (BBH) was replaced by Citibank, N.A as custodian of the funds, except for Schwab Core Equity Fund and Schwab International Core Equity Fund. The funds no longer subscribe to the BBH Cash Management Service Sweep (CMS Sweep). The BBH CMS Sweep was an investment product that automatically swept the funds’ cash balances into overnight offshore time deposits with either the BBH Grand Cayman branch or a branch of a pre-approved commercial bank. This fully automated program allowed the funds to earn interest on cash balances. Excess cash invested with deposit institutions domiciled outside of the U.S., as with any offshore deposit, was subject to sovereign actions in the jurisdiction of the deposit institution including, but not limited to, freeze, seizure or diminution. The funds assumed the risk associated with the repayment of principal and payment of interest on such instruments by the institution with which the deposit was ultimately placed. The funds terminated the CMS Sweep program and cash was returned to the funds prior to terminating services with BBH.
Cash Investments: The funds may invest a portion of their assets in cash. Cash includes cash bank balances in an interest-bearing demand deposit account with maturity on demand by the funds, except for Schwab Core Equity Fund and Schwab International Core Equity Fund.
Central Securities Depositories Regulation: The Central Securities Depositories Regulation (CSDR) introduced measures for the authorization and supervision of European Union Central Security Depositories and created a common set of prudential, organizational, and conduct of business standards at a European level. CSDR is designed to support securities settlement and operational aspects of securities settlement, including the provision of shorter settlement periods; mandatory buy-ins; and cash penalties, to prevent and address settlement fails. CSDR measures are aimed to prevent settlement fails by ensuring that all transaction details are provided to facilitate settlement, as well as further incentivizing timely settlement by imposing cash penalty fines and buy-ins. The Schwab Dividend Equity Fund, Schwab Health Care Fund and Schwab International Core Equity Fund may be subject to pay cash penalties and may also receive cash penalties with certain counterparties in instances where there are settlement fails. These cash penalties are included in net realized gains (losses) on sales of securities in each fund’s Statement of Operations, if any.
(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 differences 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 and unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses are reported in foreign currency transactions or translations in the Statement of Operations. The funds do not isolate the portion of the fluctuations on investments resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rates from the fluctuations in market prices of investments held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.
Gains realized by the funds on the sale of securities in certain foreign countries may be subject to non-U.S. taxes. In those instances, the funds record a liability based on unrealized appreciation to provide for potential non-U.S. taxes payable upon the sale of these securities.
When a fund closes out a futures contract, 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, in the form of cash or non-cash income such as in the form of additional securities, 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 date the ex-dividend date is confirmed. Any distributions from underlying funds are recorded in accordance with the character of the distributions as designated by the underlying funds.
Schwab Active Equity Funds | Annual Report
Schwab Active Equity Funds
Financial Notes (continued)
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
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.
The Schwab International Core Equity Fund filed claims to recover taxes previously withheld in certain European Union countries on the basis that those countries had purportedly violated certain provisions in the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union. These filings are subject to various administrative and judicial proceedings within these countries, and all professional fees associated with these filings have been paid by the investment adviser. The professional fees are non-contingent and non-routine fees which are subject to repayment to the investment adviser (see financial note 4 for additional information).
(e) Expenses:
Expenses that are specific to a fund are charged directly to the fund. Expenses that are common to more than one fund in the trusts generally are allocated among those funds in proportion to their average daily net assets.
(f) Distributions to Shareholders:
The funds make distributions from net investment income, if any, once a year, with the exception of Schwab Dividend Equity Fund which typically pays quarterly distributions. The funds make distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, once a year. To receive a distribution, you must be a registered shareholder on the record date. Distributions are paid to shareholders on the payable date.
(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 under subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended. 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.
(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 accrued as of October 31, 2022, 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) Regulatory Update:
In October 2022, the SEC adopted rule and form amendments to require mutual funds and ETFs to transmit concise and visually engaging streamlined annual and semiannual reports to shareholders that highlight key information deemed important for retail investors to assess and monitor their fund investments. Other information, including financial statements, will no longer appear in funds’ streamlined shareholder reports but must be available online, delivered free of charge upon request, and filed on a

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
semiannual basis on Form N-CSR. The rule and form amendments will be effective on January 24, 2023 and the compliance date will be July 24, 2024. At this time, management is evaluating the impact of these rule and form amendment changes on the content of the current shareholder report and the newly created annual and semiannual streamlined shareholder reports.
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. Financial markets rise and fall in response to a variety of factors, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably. Markets may be impacted by economic, political, regulatory and other conditions, including economic sanctions and other government actions. In addition, the occurrence of global events, such as war, terrorism, environmental disasters, natural disasters and epidemics, may also negatively affect the financial markets. As with any investment whose performance is tied to these markets, the value of an investment in a fund will fluctuate, which means that an investor could lose money over short or long periods.
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.
Management Risk. The investment techniques, risk analyses and portfolio optimization process the investment adviser may use in constructing the fund’s portfolio do not assure successful investment outcomes. Securities selected with the assistance of the investment process may be negatively impacted by factors or events not foreseen in developing the process. The fund’s investment adviser may make investment decisions using historical information that may not produce the desired results in the future. As a result, a fund may have a lower return than if it were managed using another process or strategy.
Market Capitalization Risk. Securities issued by companies of different market capitalizations tend to go in and out of favor based on market and economic conditions. During a period when securities of a particular market capitalization fall behind other types of investments, a fund’s performance could be impacted.
Large-Cap Company Risk. Large-cap companies are generally more mature and the securities issued by these companies may not be able to reach the same levels of growth as the securities issued by small- or mid-cap companies.
Mid-Cap Company Risk. Mid-cap companies may be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic events than larger, more established companies and the value of securities issued by these companies may move sharply.
Small-Cap Company Risk. Securities issued by small-cap companies may be riskier than those issued by larger companies, and their prices may move sharply, especially during market upturns and downturns.
Growth Investing Risk. Growth stocks can be volatile. Growth companies usually invest a high portion of earnings in their businesses and may lack the dividends of value stocks that can cushion stock prices in a falling market. The prices of growth stocks are based largely on projections of the issuer’s future earnings and revenues. If a company’s earnings or revenues fall short of expectations, its stock price may fall dramatically. Growth stocks may also be more expensive relative to their earnings or assets compared to value or other stocks.
Dividend Paying Stock Risk. To the extent that a fund invests in dividend paying stocks, the fund’s performance will correlate with the performance of the dividend paying stock segment of the stock market, and the fund may underperform funds that do not limit their investments to dividend paying stocks. If stocks held by a fund reduce or stop paying dividends, the fund’s ability to generate income may be affected.
Derivatives Risk. The principal type of derivative used by a fund is a futures contract. A futures contract is an agreement to buy or sell a financial instrument at a specific price on a specific day. The use of derivatives that are subject to regulation by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), could cause a fund to become a commodity pool, which would require the fund to comply with certain CFTC rules. 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, market risk and management risk, are discussed elsewhere in this section. A fund’s use of derivatives is also subject to lack of availability risk, counterparty risk, leverage 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. Counterparty risk is the risk that the counterparty to a derivatives transaction may not fulfill its obligations either because the financial condition of the counterparty declines, or because the counterparty is otherwise unable or unwilling to perform under the contract. Leverage risk is the risk that a small percentage of assets invested in derivatives can have a disproportionately large impact on a fund. Valuation risk is the risk that
Schwab Active Equity Funds | Annual Report
Schwab Active Equity Funds
Financial Notes (continued)
3. Risk Factors (continued):
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 gains. A fund’s use of derivatives could reduce the fund’s performance, increase its volatility, and could cause the fund to lose more than the initial amount invested.
Liquidity Risk. A fund may be unable to sell certain securities, such as illiquid securities, readily at a favorable time or price, or the fund may have to sell them at a loss.
Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF) Risk. When a fund invests in an ETF, it will bear a proportionate share of the ETF’s expenses. In addition, lack of liquidity in the market for an ETF’s shares can result in its value being more volatile than the underlying portfolio of securities.
REITs Risk. A fund’s investments in real estate investment trusts (REITs) will be subject to the risks associated with the direct ownership of real estate, including fluctuations in the value of underlying properties, defaults by borrowers or tenants, changes in interest rates and risks related to general or local economic conditions. REITs are also subject to certain additional risks; for example, REITs are dependent upon specialized management skills and cash flows, and may have their investments in relatively few properties, a small geographic area or a single property type. Failure of a company to qualify as a REIT under federal tax law may have adverse consequences on a fund. In addition, REITs have their own expenses, and a fund will bear a proportionate share of those expenses.
Foreign Investment Risk. A fund’s investments in securities of foreign issuers involve certain risks that may be 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); 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. There is a risk that investments in securities denominated in, and/or receiving revenues in, foreign currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar. Foreign securities may also include American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs) and European Depositary Receipts (EDRs), which may be less liquid than the underlying shares in their primary trading market, and GDRs in particular, many of which are issued by companies in emerging markets, may be more volatile. Foreign securities may also include investments in variable interest entities (VIEs) structures, which are created by China-based operating companies in jurisdictions outside of China to obtain indirect financing due to Chinese regulations that prohibit non-Chinese ownership of those companies. To the extent a fund’s investments in a single country or a limited number of countries represent a large percentage of the fund’s assets, the fund’s performance may be adversely affected by the economic, political, regulatory and social conditions in those countries, and the fund’s price may be more volatile than the price of a fund that is geographically diversified.
Emerging Markets Risk. Emerging market countries may be more likely to experience political turmoil or rapid changes in market or economic conditions than more developed countries. Emerging market countries often have less uniformity in accounting, auditing, financial reporting and recordkeeping 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 developed countries. As a result, there may be an increased risk of illiquidity and 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.
Concentration Risk. The investments of certain funds are concentrated in issuers doing business in the same sector, and therefore, the companies in which a fund invests will be affected by many of the same factors, such as legislative or regulatory changes, intense competition for market share and other competitive challenges. In addition, a fund is subject to the risks that stocks of these companies may underperform other segments of the equity market or stock market as a whole and are likely to have above-average volatility.
Securities Lending Risk. Securities lending involves the risk of loss of rights in, or delay in recovery of, the loaned securities if the borrower fails to return the security loaned or becomes insolvent.
Portfolio Turnover Risk. The funds buy and sell portfolio securities actively. This may cause a fund’s portfolio turnover rate and transaction costs to rise, which may lower a fund’s performance and may increase the likelihood of capital gains distributions.
Please refer to the funds’ prospectus for a more complete description of the principal risks of investing in the funds.

For the period ended October 31, 2022, the aggregate advisory fee paid to the investment adviser by the Schwab Health Care Fund was 0.53%, as a percentage of the fund’s average daily net assets.
Shareholder Servicing
The Board has adopted a Shareholder Servicing Plan (the Plan) on behalf of the funds. The Plan enables each fund to bear expenses relating to the provision by financial intermediaries, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (Schwab), a broker-dealer affiliate of the investment adviser (together, service providers), of certain shareholder services to the current shareholders of the funds.
Pursuant to the Plan, each fund’s shares are subject to an annual shareholder servicing fee up to 0.25%. The shareholder servicing fee paid to a particular service provider is made pursuant to its written agreement with Schwab, as distributor of the funds (or, in the case of payments made to Schwab acting as a service provider, pursuant to Schwab’s written agreement with the funds), and a fund will pay no more than 0.25% of the average annual daily net asset value of the fund shares owned by shareholders holding shares through such service provider. Payments under the Plan are made as described above without regard to whether the fee is more or less than the service provider’s actual cost of providing the services, and if more, such excess may be retained as profit by the service provider.
Expense Limitation
Although these agreements specify certain fees for these services, the investment adviser and its affiliates have made an additional agreement with the funds, for so long as the investment adviser serves as the investment adviser to the funds, which may only be amended or terminated with the approval of the Board, to limit the total annual fund operating expenses charged, excluding interest, taxes and certain non-routine expenses (expense limitation). The below expense limitation also excludes paying acquired fund fees and expenses, which are indirect expenses incurred by the funds through their investments in underlying funds. The expense limitation as a percentage of average daily net assets is as follows:

Other Affiliated Transactions
The professional fees related to foreign withholding tax claims discussed in financial note 2(d) are non-contingent and non-routine fees. The investment adviser agreed to pay these professional fees on behalf of the Schwab International Core Equity Fund, subject to reimbursement to the extent the fund is able to successfully recover taxes withheld in the future.
For the period ended October 31, 2022, the professional fees incurred by the Schwab International Core Equity Fund and paid by the investment adviser were $8,059, as shown as Professional fees in the Statement of Operations.
For the period ended October 31, 2022, the Schwab International Core Equity Fund recovered previously withheld foreign taxes from France. The payments received by Schwab International Core Equity Fund amounted to $2,081,405, which includes $193,735 of interest income, and is recorded as Dividends received from securities — unaffiliated in the fund’s Statement of Operations. The investment adviser had paid upfront professional fees associated with recovering these foreign taxes in the amount of $5,978 and is recorded as Dividends received from securities — unaffiliated in the fund’s Statement of Operations. This amount has been reimbursed to the investment adviser by the Schwab International Core Equity Fund.
As of October 31, 2022, the balance of professional fees related to foreign withholding tax subject to future reimbursement by the Schwab International Core Equity Fund to the investment adviser was $2,258.
No other amounts for additional tax reclaims are reflected in the financial statements due to the uncertainty surrounding the ultimate resolution of proceedings, the likelihood of receipt of these claims, and the potential timing of payment.
Interfund Borrowing and Lending
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. 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. The interfund lending facility is subject to the oversight and periodic review by the Board. The funds had no interfund borrowing or lending activity during the period.

Interfund Transactions
The funds may engage in direct transactions with certain other funds in the Fund Complex in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board pursuant to Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act. When one fund is seeking to sell a security that another is seeking to buy, an interfund transaction can allow both funds to benefit by reducing transaction costs. This practice is limited to funds that share the same investment adviser, trustees and/or officers. For the period ended October 31, 2022, each fund’s purchases and sales of securities with other funds in the Fund Complex as well as any realized gains (losses) were as follows:

5. Board of Trustees:
The Board may include people who are officers and/or directors of the investment adviser or its affiliates. Federal securities law limits the percentage of such “interested persons” who may serve on a trust’s board, and the trust was in compliance with these limitations throughout the report period. The funds did not pay any of these interested persons for their services as trustees, but it did pay non-interested persons (independent trustees), as noted on each fund’s Statement of Operations. For information regarding the trustees, please refer to the Trustees and Officers table at the end of this report.
6. Borrowing from Banks:
During the period, the funds were participants with other funds in the Fund Complex in a joint, syndicated, committed $850 million line of credit (the Syndicated Credit Facility), which matured on September 29, 2022. On September 29, 2022, the Syndicated Credit Facility was amended to run for a new 364 day period with the line of credit amount increasing to $1 billion, maturing on September 28, 2023. Under the terms of the Syndicated Credit Facility, in addition to the interest charged on any borrowings by a fund, each fund paid a commitment fee of 0.15% per annum on the funds’ proportionate share of the unused portion of the Syndicated Credit Facility.
During the period, the funds were participants with other funds in the Fund Complex in a joint, unsecured, uncommitted $400 million line of credit (the Uncommitted Credit Facility), with State Street Bank and Trust Company, which matured on September 29, 2022. On September 29, 2022, the Uncommitted Credit Facility was amended to run for a new 364 day period with the line of credit amount remaining unchanged, maturing on September 28, 2023. Under the terms of the Uncommitted Credit Facility, each fund pays interest on the amount a fund borrows. There were no borrowings from either line of credit during the period.
The funds also have access to custodian overdraft facilities. A fund may have utilized the overdraft facility and incurred an interest expense, which is disclosed on each fund’s Statement of Operations, if any. The interest expense is determined based on a negotiated rate above the current Federal Funds Rate.

The primary differences between book basis and tax basis unrealized appreciation or unrealized depreciation of investments are the tax deferral of losses on wash sales, the realization for tax purposes of unrealized appreciation or depreciation on futures contracts, the realization for tax purposes of unrealized appreciation on investments in PFICs and partnership investments. The tax cost of the funds’ investments, disclosed above, have been adjusted from their book amounts to reflect these unrealized appreciation or depreciation differences, as applicable.
Capital loss carryforwards have no expiration and may be used to offset future realized capital gains for federal income tax purposes. As of October 31, 2022, the funds had capital loss carryforwards available as follows:

Distributions paid to shareholders are based on net investment income and net realized gains determined on a tax basis, which may differ from net investment income and net realized gains for financial reporting purposes. These differences reflect the differing character of certain income items and net realized gains and losses for financial statement and tax purposes, and may result in reclassification among certain capital accounts on the financial statements. The funds may also designate a portion of the amount paid to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for tax purposes.
Permanent book and tax basis differences may result in reclassifications between components of net assets as required. The adjustments will have no impact on net assets or the results of operations.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Trustees of Schwab Capital Trust and Shareholders of Schwab Core Equity Fund, Schwab Dividend Equity Fund, Schwab Large-Cap Growth Fund, Schwab Small-Cap Equity Fund, Schwab Health Care Fund, and Schwab International Core Equity Fund:
Opinion on the Financial Statements and Financial Highlights
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio holdings, of Schwab Core Equity Fund, Schwab Dividend Equity Fund, Schwab Large-Cap Growth Fund, Schwab Small-Cap Equity Fund, Schwab Health Care Fund, and Schwab International Core Equity Fund (the “Funds”), six of the funds constituting Schwab Capital Trust, as of October 31, 2022, the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the three years in the period then ended, and the related notes. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of October 31, 2022, and the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the three years in the period then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The financial highlights for each of the two years in the period ended October 31, 2019 were audited by other auditors, whose report, dated December 16, 2019, expressed an unqualified opinion on such financial highlights.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Funds are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2022, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Liquidity Risk Management Program (unaudited)
The funds have adopted and implemented a liquidity risk management program (the “program”) as required by Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The funds’ Board of Trustees (the “Board”) has designated the funds’ investment adviser, Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc., dba Schwab Asset Management, as the administrator of the program. Personnel of the investment adviser or its affiliates conduct the day-to-day operation of the program.
Under the program, the investment adviser manages a fund’s liquidity risk, which is the risk that the fund could not meet shareholder redemption requests without significant dilution of remaining shareholders’ interests in the fund. The program is reasonably designed to assess and manage a fund’s liquidity risk, taking into consideration the fund’s investment strategy and the liquidity of its portfolio investments during normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed conditions; its historical redemption history and shareholder concentrations; and its cash holdings and access to other funding sources, including the custodian overdraft facility and lines of credit. The investment adviser’s process of determining the degree of liquidity of each fund’s investments is supported by third-party liquidity assessment vendors.
The funds’ Board reviewed a report at its meeting held on September 19, 2022 prepared by the investment adviser regarding the operation and effectiveness of the program for the period June 1, 2021, through May 31, 2022, which included individual fund liquidity risk metrics. No significant liquidity events impacting any of the funds were noted in the report. In addition, the investment adviser provided its assessment that the program had been operating effectively in managing each fund’s liquidity risk.

Investment Advisory Agreement Approval
The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), requires that the continuation of a fund’s investment advisory agreement must be specifically approved (1) by the vote of the trustees or by a vote of the shareholders of the fund, and (2) by the vote of a majority of the trustees who are not parties to the investment advisory agreement or “interested persons” of any party (the Independent Trustees), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. In connection with such approvals, the fund’s trustees must request and evaluate, and the investment adviser is required to furnish, such information as may be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the investment advisory agreement.
The Board of Trustees (the Board or the Trustees, as appropriate) calls and holds one or more meetings each year that are dedicated, in whole or in part, to considering whether to renew the investment advisory and administration agreement (the Agreement) between Schwab Capital Trust (the Trust) and Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (dba Schwab Asset Management) (the investment adviser) with respect to the existing funds in the Trust, including Schwab Core Equity Fund, Schwab Dividend Equity Fund, Schwab Large-Cap Growth Fund, Schwab Small-Cap Equity Fund, Schwab Health Care Fund and Schwab International Core Equity Fund (each, a Fund and collectively, the Funds), and to review certain other agreements pursuant to which the investment adviser provides investment advisory services to certain other registered investment companies. In preparation for the meeting(s), the Board requests and reviews a wide variety of materials provided by the investment adviser, including information about the investment adviser’s affiliates, personnel, business goals and priorities, profitability, third-party oversight, corporate structure and operations. As part of the renewal process, the Independent Trustees’ legal counsel, on behalf of the Independent Trustees, sends an information request letter to the investment adviser seeking certain relevant information. The responses by the investment adviser are provided to the Trustees in the Board materials for their review prior to their meeting, and the Trustees are provided with the opportunity to request any additional materials. The Board also receives data provided by an independent provider of investment company data. 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 the Funds’ operations and performance, legal and compliance matters, risk management, portfolio turnover, and sales and marketing activity. In considering the renewal, the Independent Trustees receive advice from Independent Trustees’ legal counsel, including a memorandum regarding the responsibilities of trustees for the approval of investment advisory agreements. In addition, the Independent Trustees participate in question and answer
sessions with representatives of the investment adviser and meet in executive session outside the presence of Fund management.
The Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, considered information specifically relating to the continuance of the Agreement with respect to the Funds at meetings held on May 16, 2022 and June 8, 2022, and approved the renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds for an additional one-year term at the meeting on June 8, 2022 called for the purpose of voting on such approval.
The Board’s approval of the continuance of the Agreement with respect to the Funds was based on consideration and evaluation of a variety of specific factors discussed at these meetings and at prior meetings, including:
| 1. | the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to each Fund under the Agreement, including the resources of the investment adviser and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds; |
| 2. | each Fund’s investment performance and how it compared to that of certain other comparable mutual funds and benchmark data; |
| 3. | each Fund’s expenses and how those expenses compared to those of certain other similar mutual funds; |
| 4. | the profitability of the investment adviser and its affiliates, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (Schwab), with respect to each Fund, including both direct and indirect benefits accruing to the investment adviser and its affiliates; and |
| 5. | the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as each 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 the investment adviser to the Funds and the resources of the investment adviser and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds. In this regard, the Trustees evaluated, among other things, the investment adviser’s experience, track record, compliance program, resources dedicated to hiring and retaining skilled personnel and specialized talent, and information security resources. The Trustees also considered information provided by the investment adviser relating to services and support provided with respect to each Fund’s portfolio management team, portfolio strategy, and internal investment guidelines, as well as trading infrastructure, liquidity management, product design and analysis, shareholder communications, securities valuation, fund accounting and custody, and vendor and risk oversight. The Trustees also considered investments the investment adviser has made in its infrastructure, including
Schwab Active Equity Funds | Annual Report
Schwab Active Equity Funds
modernizing the investment adviser’s technology and use of data, increasing expertise in key areas (including portfolio management and trade operations), and improving business continuity, cybersecurity, due diligence, risk management processes, and information security programs, which are designed to provide enhanced services to the Funds and their shareholders. The Trustees considered Schwab’s overall financial condition and its reputation as a full service brokerage firm, as well as the wide range of products, services and account features that benefit Fund shareholders who are 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 the investment adviser to the Funds and the resources of the investment adviser 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 such Fund. Specifically, the Trustees considered each Fund’s performance relative to a peer category of other mutual funds and applicable indices/benchmarks, in light of total return and market trends, as well as in consideration of each Fund’s investment style and strategy attributes and disclosures. As part of this review, the Trustees considered the composition of the peer category, selection criteria and the reputation of the independent provider of investment company data who prepared the peer category analysis. The Trustees further considered the level of Fund performance in the context of their review of Fund expenses and the investment adviser’s profitability discussed below and also noted that the Board and a designated committee of the Board review performance throughout the year. Although Schwab Dividend Equity Fund and Schwab International Core Equity Fund each had performance that ranked in the fourth quartile of a relevant peer group for more than one performance period considered, the Board concluded that other factors relevant to performance supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to each Fund, including that the underperformance was attributable, to a significant extent, to investment decisions by the investment adviser that were reasonable and consistent with each Fund’s investment objective and policies and that the investment adviser had taken steps designed to help improve performance. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the performance of each Fund supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to such Fund.
Fund Expenses. With respect to each Fund’s expenses, the Trustees considered the rate of compensation called for by the Agreement and each Fund’s operating expense ratio, in each case, in comparison to those of other similar mutual funds, such peer groups and comparisons having been selected and calculated by an independent provider of investment company data. The investment adviser reported to the Board, and the
Board took into account, the risk assumed by the investment adviser in the development of the Funds and provision of services as well as the competitive marketplace for financial products. The Trustees considered the effects of the investment adviser’s and Schwab’s practice of waiving certain fees to prevent total annual operating expenses of each Fund from exceeding a specified cap. The Trustees also considered the investment adviser’s contractual commitment to keep each Fund’s expense cap for so long as it serves as the adviser to the Fund. The Trustees also considered fees charged by the investment adviser to other mutual funds and to other types of accounts, but, with respect to such other types of accounts, accorded less weight to such comparisons due to the different legal, regulatory, compliance and operating features of mutual funds as compared to these other types of accounts, and any differences in the nature and scope of the services the investment adviser provides to these other accounts, and any differences in the market for these types of accounts. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the expenses of each Fund are reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to such Fund.
Profitability. The Trustees considered the compensation flowing to the investment adviser and its affiliates, directly or indirectly and reviewed profitability on a pre-tax basis, without regard to distribution expenses. In this connection, the Trustees reviewed management’s profitability analyses. The Trustees also reviewed profitability of the investment adviser relating to the Schwab fund complex as a whole, noting the benefits to Fund shareholders of being part of the Schwab fund complex, including the allocations of certain fixed costs across the Funds and other funds in the complex. The Trustees also considered any other benefits derived by the investment adviser from its relationship with the Funds, such as whether, by virtue of its management of the Funds, the investment adviser obtains investment information or other research resources that aid it in providing advisory services to other clients. The Trustees considered whether the 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 the investment adviser and its affiliates. The Trustees noted that the investment adviser continues to invest substantial sums in its business in order to provide enhanced research capabilities, services, and systems to benefit the Funds. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the profitability of the investment adviser with respect to each Fund is reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to such Fund.
Economies of Scale. Although the Trustees recognized the difficulty of determining economies of scale with precision, the Trustees considered the potential existence of any economies of scale and whether those are passed along to a Fund’s shareholders through (i) the enhancement of services provided
Schwab Active Equity Funds | Annual Report
Schwab Active Equity Funds
to the Funds in return for fees paid, including through investments by the investment adviser in its infrastructure, including modernizing the investment adviser’s technology and use of data, increasing expertise and capabilities in key areas (including portfolio and trade operations), and improving business continuity, cybersecurity, due diligence and information security programs, which are designed to provide enhanced services to the Funds and their shareholders; (ii) graduated investment advisory fee schedules or unitary fee structures, fee waivers, or expense caps by the investment adviser and its affiliates for those funds in the Schwab fund complex with such features; and (iii) pricing a fund to scale and keeping overall expenses down as the fund grows. The Trustees acknowledged that the investment adviser has shared any economies of scale with the Funds by investing in the investment adviser’s infrastructure, as discussed above, over time and that the investment adviser’s internal costs of providing investment management, technology, administrative, legal and compliance services to the Funds continue to increase as a result of regulatory or other developments. The
Trustees considered that the investment adviser and its affiliates employ contractual expense caps to protect shareholders from high fees, including for example, when fund assets are relatively small. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that each Fund obtains reasonable benefits from economies of scale.
In the course of their deliberations, the Trustees may have accorded different weights to various factors and 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 the services provided and the related expenses borne by the investment adviser and its affiliates and such other matters as the Trustees considered to be relevant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment.

Schwab Active Equity Funds | Annual Report
Schwab Active Equity Funds
asset allocation The practice of dividing a portfolio among different asset classes, with each asset class assigned a particular percentage.
asset class A group of securities with similar structure and basic characteristics. Stocks, bonds and cash are the three main examples of asset classes.
Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index An index that is a broad-based benchmark measuring the performance of the U.S. investment grade, taxable bond market, including U.S. Treasuries, government-related and corporate bonds, mortgage pass-through securities, commercial mortgage-backed securities, and asset-backed securities that are publicly available for sale in the United States. To be eligible for inclusion in the index, securities must be fixed rate, non-convertible, U.S. dollar-denominated with at least $300 million or more of outstanding face value and have one or more years remaining to maturity. The index excludes certain types of securities, including tax-exempt state and local government series bonds, structured notes embedded with swaps or other special features, private placements, floating rate securities, inflation-linked bonds and Eurobonds. The index is market capitalization weighted and the securities in the index are updated on the last business day of each month.
Bloomberg US Treasury Bills 1–3 Month Index An index that includes all publicly issued zero-coupon U.S. Treasury Bills that have a remaining maturity of less than 3 months but more than 1 month, are rated investment grade and have $300 million or more of outstanding face value. It excludes zero-coupon STRIPS.
bond A security representing a loan from the investor to the issuer. A bond typically pays interest at a fixed rate (the coupon rate) until a specified date (the maturity date), at which time the issuer returns the money borrowed (principal or face value) to the bondholder. Because of their structure, bonds are sometimes called “fixed-income securities” or “debt securities.”
An individual bond is subject to the credit risk of the issuer. Changes in interest rates can affect a bond’s market value prior to call or maturity. There is no guarantee that a bond’s yield to call or maturity will provide a positive return over the rate of inflation.
bond fund A bond fund is subject to the same credit, interest rate, and inflation risks as bonds. In addition, a bond fund incurs ongoing fees and expenses. A bond fund’s net asset value will fluctuate with the price of the underlying bonds and the portfolio turnover activity; return of principal is not guaranteed.
cap, capitalization See “market cap.”
capital gain, capital loss the difference between the amount paid for an investment and its value at a later time. If the investment has been sold, the capital gain or loss is considered a realized gain or loss. If the investment is still held, the capital gain or loss is considered unrealized appreciation or depreciation.
Dividend Equity Spliced Index An internally calculated index, comprised of the S&P 500 Index from inception of the Schwab Dividend Equity Fund until the close of business on February 27, 2015, and the Russell 1000 Value Index thereafter.
Dow Jones Global Health Care Index An index that measures the performance of healthcare providers, researchers, and supplies producers around the world. The index is quoted in U.S. dollars.
expense ratio The amount that is taken from a mutual fund’s assets each year to cover the fund’s operating expenses. An expense ratio of 0.50% means that a fund’s expenses amount to half of one percent of its average net assets a year.
market cap, market capitalization The value of a company as determined by the total value of all shares of its stock outstanding.
MSCI EAFE Index (Net) A free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed markets in Europe, Australasia, and the Far East. 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 mutual fund. NAV is calculated by taking the fund’s total assets, subtracting liabilities, and dividing by the number of shares outstanding.
outstanding shares, shares outstanding When speaking of a company or mutual fund, indicates all shares currently held by investors.
price-to-book ratio (P/B) The market price of a company’s stock compared with its “book value.” A mutual fund’s P/B is the weighted average of the P/B of all stocks in the fund’s portfolio.
price-to-earnings ratio (P/E) The market price of a company’s stock compared with earnings over the past year. A mutual fund’s P/E is the weighted average of the P/E of all stocks in the fund’s portfolio.
return on equity (ROE) The average yearly rate of return for each dollar of investors’ money, measured over the past five years.
Russell 1000 Growth Index An index that measures the performance of those Russell 1000 Index companies with higher price-to-book ratios and higher forecasted growth values.
Russell 1000 Index An index that measures the performance of the 1,000 largest companies in the Russell 3000 Index, and represents approximately 92% of the total market capitalization of the Russell 3000 Index. The Russell 3000 Index measures the performance of the largest 3,000 U.S. companies representing approximately 98% of the investable U.S. equity market.
Russell 1000 Value Index An index that measures the performance of the large-cap value segment of the U.S. equity universe. It includes those Russell 1000 Index companies with lower price-to-book ratios and lower expected growth values.
Russell 2000 Index An index that measures the performance of the 2,000 smallest companies in the Russell 3000 Index. The Russell 3000 Index measures the performance of the largest 3,000 U.S. companies representing approximately 98% of the investable U.S. equity market.
S&P 500 Index An index that is designed to measure the performance of 500 leading publicly traded companies from a broad range of industries.
stock A share of ownership, or equity, in the issuing company.
total return The percentage that an investor would have earned or lost on an investment in the fund assuming dividends and distributions were reinvested.
weighted average For mutual funds, an average that gives the same weight to each security as the security represents in the fund’s portfolio.
yield The income paid out by an investment, expressed as a percentage of the investment’s market value.

covered in this report.
Dear Shareholder,
Geopolitical, economic, and market challenges abounded during the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022. Although the period started off strong, with markets reaching new highs in the final months of 2021, the subsequent 10 months were beset by rapidly rising inflation, sharply climbing interest rates, steeply declining stock prices, and the onset of a war in Europe as Russia invaded Ukraine. Economic growth in the United States and most of the world slowed. By the end of the period, the S&P 500® Index, a bellwether for the overall U.S. stock market, lost nearly 20% of its value from its early-January 2022 peak and returned -14.6% for the reporting period. The MSCI EAFE® Index (Net)*, a broad measure of developed international equity performance, declined by more than 25% between early-January 2022 highs and the end of the reporting period and returned -23.0% for the reporting period. U.S. fixed-income markets slumped in the face of inflationary pressures, with the broad U.S. bond market, as measured by the Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index, returning -15.7% for the reporting period.
At Schwab Asset Management, we recognize that today’s turbulent investment environment may be unsettling for many investors. Market declines and volatility can rattle confidence even in well-established investment plans and can cause investors to impulsively react to market movements. At such times, it is helpful to remember that, even in the face of market turmoil and volatility, most investors are best served by maintaining a diversified portfolio that reflects their risk tolerance and goals.
The Schwab Balanced Fund provides diversified exposure to actively managed U.S. equity funds, fixed-income funds, and cash and cash equivalents in a convenient portfolio solution. The portfolio management team balances exposures between asset classes and the fund seeks to provide investors access to the growth opportunities of stock investing along with the income opportunities of bonds and other fixed-income securities.
Thank you for investing with Schwab Asset Management, and for trusting us to help you achieve your financial goals.

In addition, you can find further details about the fund by visiting our website at www.schwabassetmanagement.com. We are also happy to hear from you at 1-877-824-5615.

Schwab Balanced Fund | Annual Report
The Investment Environment
For the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, U.S. and international equity and bond markets lost ground. After several key market indices hit record highs through early January 2022, equity markets around the globe began to slide in reaction to growing headwinds, including accelerating inflation and the increasing likelihood of rising interest rates. In late February 2022, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine drove oil prices to over $100 per barrel for the first time since 2014 and roiled stock markets around the world. Albeit decelerating, COVID-19 continued to weigh on economies worldwide, with highly transmissible variants and subvariants keeping infection rates high in many areas. As the reporting period progressed, economic growth slowed, interest rates rose, and recession fears mounted. The U.S. dollar continued to exhibit strength against a basket of foreign currencies, ending the reporting period significantly stronger and generally reducing the returns of overseas investments in U.S. dollar terms. For the reporting period, the S&P 500® Index, a bellwether for the overall U.S. stock market, returned -14.61%. U.S. small-cap stocks underperformed U.S. large-cap stocks, with the Russell 2000® Index and the Russell 1000® Index returning -18.54% and -16.38%, respectively. Among U.S. large-cap stocks, growth stocks significantly underperformed value stocks, with the Russell 1000® Growth Index and Russell 1000® Value Index returning -24.60% and -7.00%, respectively. Among U.S. industry sectors, only energy generated strong positive returns, driven by soaring oil and gas prices. Traditionally defensive sectors, such as consumer staples, utilities, and health care, tended to outperform the market average, while cyclically sensitive sectors, such as consumer discretionary, real estate, and information technology, lagged. Outside the United States, the MSCI EAFE® Index (Net)*, a broad measure of developed international equity performance, returned -23.00% and the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (Net)* returned -31.03%. U.S. and international bonds were also weak for the reporting period as economic uncertainty and rising interest rates by many central banks drove bond yields up and bond prices down. (Bond yields and bond prices typically move in opposite directions.) The Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index returned -15.68% and the FTSE non-US Dollar World Government Bond Index returned -27.64%.
After a recovery from the dramatic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic through the end of 2021, U.S. gross domestic product (GDP) increased at an annualized rate of 6.9% for the fourth quarter. However, amid fading government stimuli, ongoing supply chain disruptions, persisting inflation, a tight labor market, and a widening U.S. trade deficit, GDP decreased at an annualized rate of -1.6% and -0.6% for the first and second quarters of 2022, respectively. GDP growth was positive for the third quarter of 2022, increasing at an annualized rate of 2.9%, driven primarily by energy

exports. Consumer spending also grew but at a slower pace than in the second quarter. Inflation remained stubbornly high, hitting a 40-year high in June due to imbalances in the labor market, supply chain bottlenecks, and soaring energy costs, before falling slightly by the end of the reporting period. The unemployment rate remained low, ending the reporting period near pre-pandemic lows.
Outside the United States, global economies also wrestled with the fallout of the COVID-19 pandemic, high energy costs, rising inflation, and the war in Ukraine. After spiking in early March 2022 as sanctions were imposed on Russian imports—and again in June on supply-and-demand imbalances—oil prices generally fell through the rest of the reporting period, ending at just over $86 per barrel. The eurozone, heavily impacted by the war in Ukraine and associated commodity price spikes, managed to eke out small gains in GDP for the fourth quarter of 2021 and first and second quarters of 2022, as COVID-19 restrictions eased and tourism increased in response to pent-up demand. The United Kingdom also posted small gains in GDP growth for the fourth quarter of 2021 and first and second quarters of 2022. Among emerging markets, China’s GDP growth rate remained positive but slowed notably as China dealt with numerous headwinds including lockdowns and quarantines, declining domestic consumption, and a severe property downturn as a result of stalled demand, a decline in financing for property development, halted construction on in progress projects, and homeowners pausing mortgage payments on incomplete builds. India’s GDP growth also remained positive over the reporting period, particularly in the second quarter of 2022, on rising consumer demand and a rapid decline in COVID-19 cases.
Monetary policy around the world varied. In the United States, after maintaining the federal funds rate in a range of 0.00% to 0.25% through mid-March 2022, as inflation continued to rise and indicators of economic activity and employment continued to strengthen, the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) shifted its stance. After issuing successively stronger signals that interest rates could begin to rise sooner in 2022 than previously anticipated, the Fed raised the federal funds rate five times during the reporting period—by 0.25% in mid-March, 0.50% in early May, 0.75% in mid-June, 0.75% in late July, and 0.75% in late September—in its ongoing efforts to achieve a return to price stability. The federal funds rate ended the reporting period in a range of 3.00% to 3.25%. In June, the Fed also began to reduce the $9 trillion in assets it held on its balance sheet, vowing to be even more aggressive than during its last round of quantitative tightening between 2017 and 2019. Outside the United States, central banks were similarly responsive. After holding its policy rate unchanged since March 2015, at 0.00%, the European Central Bank raised its interest rate three times over the reporting period in an effort to dampen demand and control inflation, which in October 2022 rose into double-digits. The Bank of England raised its key official bank rate seven times during the reporting period, bringing borrowing costs to a 13-year high as the Bank of England wrestles with soaring inflation. In contrast, the Bank of Japan continued to uphold its short-term interest rate target of -0.1%, unchanged since 2016, but raised its inflation forecast at its October 2022 meeting. Monetary policies in emerging markets were mixed. Central banks in India, Indonesia, Brazil, Mexico, and Pakistan raised their rates multiple times over the reporting period to counteract the impacts of inflation. In contrast, China cut its interest rate three times over the reporting period, in part as a result of a resurgence of COVID-19 cases and a lingering property downturn. Russia raised its benchmark policy rate to 20% in late February 2022 amid the broadening fallout of Western sanctions in retaliation against Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, but subsequently reduced it several times.
U.S. bond yields remained relatively flat through the final two months of 2021. However, as inflation continued to rise and Fed monetary policy shifted, bond yields began to rise in early 2022, ending October near reporting-period highs and exerting downward pressure on bond prices. Over the reporting period, the yield on the 10-year U.S. Treasury rose from 1.55% to 4.10%. Short-term rates also rose, with the yield on the three-month U.S. Treasury climbing from 0.05% to 4.22% over the reporting period. Outside the U.S., bond yields generally followed a similar trajectory.

Schwab Balanced Fund | Annual Report
The Schwab Balanced Fund (the fund) seeks capital growth and income. To pursue its goal, the fund generally invests in a diversified group of other affiliated Schwab Funds in accordance with its target portfolio allocation. Normally, the fund invests 55% to 65% of its assets in equity securities (including stocks and equity funds) and 35% to 45% in fixed-income securities (including bonds and fixed-income funds), and cash and cash equivalents (including money market funds). This allocation is designed to provide a mix of the growth opportunities of stock investing with the income opportunities of bonds and other fixed-income securities. For more information concerning the fund’s investment objective, strategies, and risks, please see the fund’s prospectus.
Market Highlights. For the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, U.S. and international equity and bond markets lost ground. After several key market indices hit record highs through early January 2022, equity markets around the globe began to slide in reaction to growing headwinds, including accelerating inflation and the increasing likelihood of rising interest rates. In late February 2022, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine drove oil prices to over $100 per barrel for the first time since 2014 and roiled stock markets around the world. Albeit decelerating, COVID-19 continued to weigh on economies worldwide, with highly transmissible variants and subvariants keeping infection rates high in many areas. As the reporting period progressed, economic growth slowed, interest rates rose, and recession fears mounted. U.S. small-cap stocks underperformed U.S. large-cap stocks. Among U.S. large-cap stocks, growth stocks significantly underperformed value stocks. As inflation rose and U.S. Federal Reserve monetary policy shifted, bond yields began to rise in early 2022, ending October near reporting-period highs and exerting downward pressure on bond prices. (Bond yields and bond prices typically move in opposite directions.) The U.S. dollar continued to exhibit strength against a basket of foreign currencies, ending the reporting period significantly stronger and generally reducing the returns of overseas investments in U.S. dollar terms.
Performance. For the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, the fund returned -18.51%. The fund’s internally calculated comparative index, the Balanced Blended Index (the index), returned -15.32%.
Positioning and Strategies. Over the reporting period, the fund’s asset allocations were broadly in line with those of the index.
The fund’s U.S. large-cap equity allocations detracted the most from the total return of the fund. The Schwab Select Large Cap Growth Fund was the largest detractor from the total return and relative performance of the fund, returning approximately -36% for the reporting period. The comparative index, the S&P 500® Index, returned approximately -15% for the reporting period. The Schwab Core Equity Fund also detracted from the total return of the fund but contributed positively to relative performance, returning approximately -14% for the reporting period.
The fund’s fixed-income allocation also detracted from the total return of the fund. The Schwab U.S. Aggregate Bond Index Fund returned approximately -16% for the reporting period and generally tracked its comparative index, the Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index.
The fund’s international equity allocation was added in February 2022 and also detracted from the total return of the fund. The Schwab International Opportunities Fund returned approximately -27% while held by the fund, underperforming its comparative index, the MSCI EAFE® Index (Net)1.
The U.S. small-cap equity allocation also detracted from the total return of the fund. The Schwab Small-Cap Equity Fund returned approximately -10% for the reporting period, outperforming its comparative index, the Russell 2000® Index, which returned approximately -19% for the reporting period.

| 1 | Fund expenses may have been partially absorbed by the investment adviser and its affiliates. Without these reductions, the fund’s returns would have been lower. These returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. |

| 3 | As stated in the prospectus. Includes 0.50% of acquired fund fees and expenses (AFFE), which are indirect expenses incurred by the fund through its investments in the underlying funds. Net Expense: Expenses reduced by a contractual fee waiver in effect for so long as Schwab Asset Management serves as the investment adviser to the fund. Gross Expense: Does not reflect the effect of contractual fee waivers. For actual expense ratios during the period, not including AFFE, refer to the financial highlights section of the financial statements. |

Fund Expenses (Unaudited)
Examples for a $1,000 Investment
As a fund shareholder, you may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs; and (2) ongoing costs, including transfer agent 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 May 1, 2022 and held through October 31, 2022.
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 the 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 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. 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.

In addition, the fund may invest a portion of its assets directly in equity and fixed-income securities to maintain its allocations.
The fund offers one share class. Shares are bought and sold at closing net asset value per share (NAV), which is the price for all outstanding shares of the fund. Each share has a par value of 1/1,000 of a cent, and the fund’s Board of Trustees (the Board) may authorize the issuance of as many shares as necessary.
The fund maintains its own account for purposes of holding assets and accounting, and is considered a separate entity for tax purposes. Within its account, the fund may also keep certain assets in segregated accounts, as required by securities law.
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the fund uses in its preparation of financial statements. The fund follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) 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 financial statements of the fund should be read in conjunction with the underlying funds’ financial statements. 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) and are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
(a) Security Valuation:
Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Board has designated authority to a Valuation Designee, the fund’s investment adviser, to make fair valuation determinations under adopted procedures, subject to Board oversight. The investment adviser has formed a Pricing Committee to administer the pricing and valuation of portfolio securities and other assets and liabilities and to ensure that prices used for internal purposes or provided by third parties reasonably reflect fair value. The Valuation Designee may utilize independent pricing services, quotations from securities and financial instrument dealers and other market sources to determine fair value.
Securities held in the fund’s portfolio are valued every business day. The following valuation policies and procedures are used by the Valuation Designee 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 the mean of the most recent bid and ask quotes.
• Mutual funds: Mutual funds are valued at their respective NAVs.
• Securities for which no quoted value is available: The Valuation Designee has adopted procedures to fair value the fund’s securities when market prices are not “readily available” or are unreliable. For example, a security may be fair valued 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. Fair value determinations are made in good faith in accordance with adopted valuation procedures. The Valuation Designee considers a number of factors, including unobservable market inputs, when arriving at fair value. The Valuation Designee may employ methods 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. 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.
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 methods 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 it is determined 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 the Valuation Designee’s 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 investments — 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, mutual funds and ETFs. 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 underlying securities 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.
• Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Valuation Designee’s 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 readily available for these securities, one or more valuation methods are used for which sufficient and reliable data is available. The inputs used 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

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
flows. Level 3 prices may also be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, with the amount of such discount estimated in the absence of market information. Assumptions used 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.
As disclosed in the Portfolio Holdings, as of October 31, 2022, all of the fund’s investments were classified as Level 1.
(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.
(c) Investment Income:
Interest income is recorded as it accrues. Dividends and distributions from portfolio securities and underlying funds are recorded on the date they are effective (the ex-dividend date). Any distributions from underlying funds are recorded in accordance with the character of the distributions as designated by the underlying funds.
(d) Expenses:
Expenses that are specific to the fund are charged directly to the fund. Expenses that are common to more than one fund in the trusts generally are allocated among those funds in proportion to their average daily net assets. The fund bears its share of the acquired fund fees and expenses of the underlying funds, which are indirect expenses incurred by the fund through its investments in the underlying funds. Such expenses are reflected in the net asset values of the underlying funds.
(e) Distributions to Shareholders:
The fund makes distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, once a year. To receive a distribution, you must be a registered shareholder on the record date. Distributions are paid to shareholders on the payable date.
(f) Accounting Estimates:
The accounting policies described in this report conform to GAAP. Notwithstanding this, shareholders should understand that in order to follow these principles, fund management has to make estimates and assumptions that affect the information reported in the financial statements. It’s possible that once the results are known, they may turn out to be different from these estimates and these differences may be material.
(g) Federal Income Taxes:
The fund intends to meet federal income and excise tax requirements for regulated investment companies under subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended. Accordingly, the fund distributes substantially all of its net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, to its shareholders each year. As long as the fund meets the tax requirements, it is not required to pay federal income tax.
(h) 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.
(i) Regulatory Update:
In October 2022, the SEC adopted rule and form amendments to require mutual funds and ETFs to transmit concise and visually engaging streamlined annual and semiannual reports to shareholders that highlight key information deemed important for retail investors to assess and monitor their fund investments. Other information, including financial statements, will no longer appear in funds’ streamlined shareholder reports but must be available online, delivered free of charge upon request, and filed on a
Schwab Balanced Fund | Annual Report

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
semiannual basis on Form N-CSR. The rule and form amendments will be effective on January 24, 2023 and the compliance date will be July 24, 2024. At this time, management is evaluating the impact of these rule and form amendment changes on the content of the current shareholder report and the newly created annual and semiannual streamlined shareholder reports.
3. Risk Factors:
Investing in the fund may involve certain risks, as discussed in the fund’s prospectus, including, but not limited to, those described below. Any of these risks could cause an investor to lose money.
Asset Allocation Risk. The fund is subject to the risk that the selection of the underlying funds and the allocation of the fund’s assets among the various asset classes and market segments may cause the fund to underperform other funds with a similar investment objective. The fund is not managed to maximize tax efficiency for taxable shareholder accounts. Investors should consider whether the fund is an appropriate investment in light of their current financial position and retirement needs.
Conflicts of Interest Risk. The investment adviser’s authority to select and substitute underlying funds from a variety of affiliated and unaffiliated mutual funds and ETFs may create a conflict of interest because the fees paid to it and its affiliates by some underlying funds are higher than the fees paid by other underlying funds. The investment adviser also may have an incentive to select an affiliated underlying fund for other reasons, including to increase assets under management or to support new investment strategies. In addition, other conflicts of interest may exist where the best interests of the affiliated underlying fund may not be aligned with those of the fund. However, the investment adviser is a fiduciary to the fund and is legally obligated to act in the fund’s best interests when selecting underlying funds.
Market Risk. Financial markets rise and fall in response to a variety of factors, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably. Markets may be impacted by economic, political, regulatory and other conditions, including economic sanctions and other government actions. In addition, the occurrence of global events, such as war, terrorism, environmental disasters, natural disasters and epidemics, may also negatively affect the financial markets. As with any investment whose performance is tied to these markets, the value of an investment in the fund will fluctuate, which means that an investor could lose money over short or long periods.
Direct Investment Risk. The fund may invest directly in cash, cash equivalents and equity and fixed-income securities, including money market securities, to maintain its allocations. The fund’s direct investment in these securities is subject to the same or similar risks as an underlying fund’s investment in the same securities.
Underlying Fund Investment Risk. Before investing in the fund, investors should assess the risks associated with the underlying funds in which the fund may invest, which include any combination of the risks described below.
• Investment Risk. The fund may experience losses with respect to its investment in an underlying fund. Further, there is no guarantee that an underlying fund will be able to achieve its objective.
• Management Risk. Generally, the underlying funds are actively managed mutual funds. Any actively managed mutual fund is subject to the risk that its investment adviser (or subadviser(s)) will select or allocate assets that could cause the fund to underperform or otherwise not meet its objective. An underlying fund’s adviser applies its own investment techniques and risk analyses in making investment decisions for the underlying fund, but there can be no guarantee that they will produce the desired results.
• Equity Risk. The prices of equity securities rise and fall daily. These price movements may result from factors affecting individual companies, industries or the securities market as a whole. In addition, equity markets tend to move in cycles, which may cause stock prices to fall over short or extended periods of time.
• Market Capitalization Risk. Securities issued by companies of different market capitalizations tend to go in and out of favor based on market and economic conditions. During a period when securities of a particular market capitalization fall behind other types of investments, an underlying fund’s performance could be impacted.
• Growth Investing Risk. An underlying fund’s investments in growth stocks can be volatile. Growth companies usually invest a high portion of earnings in their businesses and may lack the dividends of value stocks that can cushion stock prices in a falling market. The prices of growth stocks are based largely on projections of the issuer’s future earnings and revenues. If a company’s earnings or revenues fall short of expectations, its stock price may fall dramatically. Growth stocks may also be more expensive relative to their earnings or assets compared to value or other stocks.
Schwab Balanced Fund | Annual Report
Financial Notes (continued)
3. Risk Factors (continued):
• Fixed-Income Risk. Interest rates rise and fall over time, which will affect an underlying fund’s yield and share price. A change in a central bank’s monetary policy or economic conditions, among other things, may result in a change in interest rates. A rise in interest rates could cause an underlying fund’s share price to fall. The credit quality of a portfolio investment could also cause an underlying fund’s share price to fall. An underlying fund could lose money if the issuer or guarantor of a portfolio investment or the counterparty to a derivatives contract fails to make timely principal or interest payments or otherwise honor its obligations. Fixed-income securities may be paid off earlier or later than expected. Either situation could cause an underlying fund to hold securities paying lower-than-market rates of interest, which could hurt an underlying fund’s yield or share price. Below investment-grade bonds (junk bonds) involve greater credit risk, are more volatile, involve greater risk of price declines and may be more susceptible to economic downturns than investment-grade securities.
• ETF Risk. When an underlying fund invests in an ETF, it will bear a proportionate share of the ETF’s expenses. In addition, lack of liquidity in the market for an ETF’s shares can result in its value being more volatile than the underlying portfolio of securities.
• Money Market Fund Risk. The fund may invest in underlying money market funds that either seek to maintain a stable $1.00 net asset value (“stable share price money market funds”) or that have a share price that fluctuates (“variable share price money market funds”). Although an underlying stable share price money market fund seeks to maintain a stable $1.00 net asset value, it is possible to lose money by investing in such a money market fund. Because the share price of an underlying variable share price money market fund will fluctuate, when the fund sells the shares it owns they may be worth more or less than what the fund originally paid for them. In addition, neither type of money market fund is designed to offer capital appreciation. Certain underlying money market funds may impose a fee upon the sale of shares or may temporarily suspend the ability to sell shares if such fund’s liquidity falls below required minimums.
• Foreign Investment Risk. An underlying fund’s investments in securities of foreign issuers involve certain risks that may be 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); 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 an underlying fund’s investments, and could impair the underlying fund’s ability to meet its investment objective or invest in accordance with its investment strategy. There is a risk that investments in securities denominated in, and/or receiving revenues in, foreign currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar.
• Emerging Markets Risk. Emerging market countries may be more likely to experience political turmoil or rapid changes in market or economic conditions than more developed countries. Emerging market countries often have less uniformity in accounting, auditing, financial reporting and recordkeeping 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 developed countries. As a result, there may be an increased risk of illiquidity and price volatility associated with an underlying 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.
• Derivatives Risk. An underlying 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, but not the obligation, to buy or sell an instrument at a specific price on or 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 credit default swap is an agreement in which the seller agrees to make a payment to the buyer in the event of a specified credit event in exchange for a fixed payment or series of fixed payments.
An underlying fund’s use of derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. Certain of these risks, such as leverage risk, liquidity risk, market risk and management risk are discussed elsewhere in this section. An underlying fund’s use of derivatives is also subject to 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. 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 an underlying fund to realize higher amounts of short-term capital gains. An underlying fund’s use of derivatives could reduce the
Schwab Balanced Fund | Annual Report

3. Risk Factors (continued):
underlying fund’s performance, increase its volatility, and could cause the underlying fund to lose more than the initial amount invested. The use of derivatives that are subject to regulation by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) by an underlying fund could cause the fund to become a commodity pool, which would require the fund to comply with certain CFTC rules.
• Leverage Risk. Certain underlying fund transactions, such as derivatives transactions, short sales, reverse repurchase agreements, and mortgage dollar rolls, may give rise to a form of leverage and may expose an underlying fund to greater risk. Leverage tends to magnify the effect of any decrease or increase in the value of an underlying fund’s portfolio securities, which means even a small amount of leverage can have a disproportionately large impact on the underlying fund.
• Liquidity Risk. An underlying fund may be unable to sell certain securities, such as illiquid securities, readily at a favorable time or price, or the underlying fund may have to sell them at a loss.
• Portfolio Turnover Risk. Certain of the underlying funds may buy and sell portfolio securities actively. If they do, their portfolio turnover rate and transaction costs will rise, which may lower the underlying fund’s performance and may increase the likelihood of capital gains distributions.
• Securities Lending Risk. An underlying fund may lend its portfolio securities to brokers, dealers, and other financial institutions. Securities lending involves the risk of loss of rights in, or delay in recovery of, the loaned securities if the borrower fails to return the security loaned or becomes insolvent.
• Mortgage-Backed and Mortgage Pass-Through Securities Risk. Mortgage-backed securities tend to increase in value less than other debt securities when interest rates decline, but are subject to similar or greater risk of decline in market value during periods of rising interest rates. Certain of the mortgage-backed securities in which an underlying fund may invest are issued or guaranteed by agencies or instrumentalities of the U.S. government but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government. There can be no assurance that the U.S. government would provide financial support to its agencies or instrumentalities where it was not obligated to do so which can cause an underlying fund to lose money or underperform. The risks of investing in mortgage-backed securities include, among others, interest rate risk, credit risk, prepayment risk and extension risk. Transactions in mortgage pass-through securities often occur through to-be-announced (TBA) transactions. An underlying fund could lose money or underperform if a TBA counterparty defaults or goes bankrupt.
• Mortgage Dollar Rolls Risk. Mortgage dollar rolls are transactions in which an underlying fund sells mortgage-backed securities to a dealer and simultaneously agrees to repurchase similar securities in the future at a predetermined price. An underlying fund’s mortgage dollar rolls could lose money if the price of the mortgage-backed securities sold falls below the agreed upon repurchase price, or if the counterparty is unable to honor the agreement.
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:
Investment Adviser
Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc., dba Schwab Asset Management, a wholly owned subsidiary of The Charles Schwab Corporation, serves as the fund’s investment adviser and administrator pursuant to an Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement between the investment adviser and the trust. The investment adviser does not receive a fee for the services it performs for the fund. However, the investment adviser is entitled to receive an annual management fee from each of the affiliated Schwab Funds that serve as underlying funds.
Shareholder Servicing
The Board has adopted a Shareholder Servicing Plan (the Plan) on behalf of the fund. The Plan enables the fund to bear expenses relating to the provision by financial intermediaries, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc., a broker-dealer affiliate of the investment adviser (together, service providers), of certain account maintenance, customer liaison and shareholder services to the current shareholders of the fund. The fund is not subject to any fee under the Plan.
Schwab Balanced Fund | Annual Report
Financial Notes (continued)
4. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions (continued):
Expense Limitation
The investment adviser and its affiliates have agreed with the fund, for so long as the investment adviser serves as the investment adviser to the fund, in which the agreement may only be amended or terminated with the approval of the Board, to limit the total annual fund operating expenses charged, excluding interest, taxes and certain non-routine expenses to 0.00%.
The agreement to limit the fund’s total expenses charged is limited to the fund’s direct operating expenses and, therefore, does not apply to acquired fund fees and expenses, which are indirect expenses incurred by the fund through its investments in the underlying funds.
Investments in Affiliates
The fund may engage in certain transactions involving related parties. Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, the fund may invest in other related funds. As of October 31, 2022, the fund’s ownership percentages of other related funds’ shares are as follows:
| Schwab Core Equity Fund | 13.3% |
| Schwab International Opportunities Fund | 5.8% |
| Schwab Select Large Cap Growth Fund | 4.6% |
| Schwab Small-Cap Equity Fund | 10.2% |
| Schwab U.S. Aggregate Bond Index Fund | 5.6% |
| Schwab Variable Share Price Money Fund, Ultra Shares | 0.3% |
Interfund Borrowing and Lending
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. 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. The interfund lending facility is subject to the oversight and periodic review by the Board. The fund had no interfund borrowing or lending activity during the period.
Interfund Transactions
The fund may engage in transactions with certain other funds in the Fund Complex in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board pursuant to Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act. When one fund is seeking to sell a security that another is seeking to buy, an interfund transaction can allow both funds to benefit by reducing transaction costs. This practice is limited to funds that share the same investment adviser, trustees and/or officers. For the period ended October 31, 2022, the fund’s purchases and sales of securities with other funds in the Fund Complex as well as any realized gains (losses) were as follows:
| | PURCHASE COST | SALE PROCEEDS | REALIZED GAINS (LOSSES) |
| | $— | $39,355,550 | ($1,058,783) |
| | | | |
5. Board of Trustees:
The Board may include people who are officers and/or directors of the investment adviser or its affiliates. Federal securities law limits the percentage of such “interested persons” who may serve on a trust’s board, and the trust was in compliance with these limitations throughout the report period. The fund did not pay any of these interested persons for their services as trustees, but it did pay non-interested persons (independent trustees), as noted on the fund’s Statement of Operations. For information regarding the trustees, please refer to the Trustees and Officers table at the end of this report.
Schwab Balanced Fund | Annual Report
Financial Notes (continued)
During the period, the fund was a participant with other funds in the Fund Complex in a joint, syndicated, committed $850 million line of credit (the Syndicated Credit Facility), which matured on September 29, 2022. On September 29,2022, the Syndicated Credit Facility was amended to run for a new 364 day period with the line of credit amount increasing to $1 billion, maturing on September 28, 2023. Under the terms of the Syndicated Credit Facility, in addition to the investment adviser paying the interest charged on any borrowings by the fund, the fund paid a commitment fee of 0.15% per annum on the fund’s proportionate share of the unused portion of the Syndicated Credit Facility.
During the period, the fund was a participant with other funds in the Fund Complex in a joint, unsecured, uncommitted $400 million line of credit (the Uncommitted Credit Facility), with State Street Bank and Trust Company, which matured on September 29, 2022. On September 29,2022, the Syndicated Credit Facility was amended to run for a new 364 day period with the line of credit amount remaining unchanged, maturing on September 28, 2023. Under the terms of the Uncommitted Credit Facility, the fund pays interest on the amount it borrows. There were no borrowings from either line of credit during the period.
The fund also has access to custodian overdraft facilities. The fund may have utilized the overdraft facility and incurred an 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.
7. Purchases and Sales of Investment Securities:
For the period ended October 31, 2022, purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term obligations) were as follows:
PURCHASES
OF SECURITIES | SALES
OF SECURITIES |
| $303,419,258 | $226,845,317 |
8. Federal Income Taxes:
As of October 31, 2022, the tax basis cost of the fund’s investments and gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation were as follows:
| TAX COST | GROSS UNREALIZED
APPRECIATION | GROSS UNREALIZED
DEPRECIATION | NET UNREALIZED
APPRECIATION
(DEPRECIATION) |
| $677,641,506 | $13,075,176 | ($73,521,472) | ($60,446,296) |
As of October 31, 2022, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:
UNDISTRIBUTED
ORDINARY
INCOME | UNDISTRIBUTED
LONG-TERM
CAPITAL GAINS | NET UNREALIZED
APPRECIATION
(DEPRECIATION)
ON INVESTMENTS | TOTAL |
| $5,260,171 | $47,129,767 | ($60,446,296) | ($8,056,358) |
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. The tax cost of the fund’s investments, disclosed above, have been adjusted from their book amounts to reflect these unrealized appreciation or depreciation differences, as applicable.
The tax basis components of distributions paid during the current and prior fiscal years were as follows:
| | CURRENT FISCAL YEAR END DISTRIBUTIONS | PRIOR FISCAL YEAR END DISTRIBUTIONS |
| | ORDINARY
INCOME | LONG-TERM
CAPITAL
GAINS | ORDINARY
INCOME | LONG-TERM
CAPITAL
GAINS |
| | $38,253,293 | $15,713,533 | $7,375,819 | $11,323,693 |
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 reflect the differing character of certain income items and net realized gains and losses for financial statement and tax purposes, and may result in reclassification among certain capital accounts on the financial statements. The fund may also designate a portion of the amount paid to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for tax purposes.

Financial Notes (continued)
8. Federal Income Taxes (continued):
Permanent book and tax basis differences may result in reclassifications between components of net assets as required. The adjustments will have no impact on net assets or the results of operations.
As of October 31, 2022, 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 fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, the fund did not incur any interest or penalties.
9. 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 of Schwab Capital Trust and Shareholders of Schwab Balanced Fund:
Opinion on the Financial Statements and Financial Highlights
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio holdings, of Schwab Balanced Fund (the “Fund”), one of the funds constituting Schwab Capital Trust, as of October 31, 2022, the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the three years in the period then ended, and the related notes. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of October 31, 2022, 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 three years in the period then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The financial highlights for each of the two years in the period ended October 31, 2019 were audited by other auditors, whose report, dated December 16, 2019, expressed an unqualified opinion on such financial highlights.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund’s financial statements and financial highlights based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Fund in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks.

Liquidity Risk Management Program (unaudited)
The fund has adopted and implemented a liquidity risk management program (the “program”) as required by Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The fund’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”) has designated the fund’s investment adviser, Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc., dba Schwab Asset Management, as the administrator of the program. Personnel of the investment adviser or its affiliates conduct the day-to-day operation of the program.
Under the program, the investment adviser manages a fund’s liquidity risk, which is the risk that the fund could not meet shareholder redemption requests without significant dilution of remaining shareholders’ interests in the fund. The program is reasonably designed to assess and manage a fund’s liquidity risk, taking into consideration the fund’s investment strategy and the liquidity of its portfolio investments during normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed conditions; its historical redemption history and shareholder concentrations; and its cash holdings and access to other funding sources, including the custodian overdraft facility and lines of credit. The investment adviser’s process of determining the degree of liquidity of each fund’s investments is supported by third-party liquidity assessment vendors.
The fund’s Board reviewed a report at its meeting held on September 19, 2022 prepared by the investment adviser regarding the operation and effectiveness of the program for the period June 1, 2021, through May 31, 2022, which included individual fund liquidity metrics. No significant liquidity events impacting the fund were noted in the report. In addition, the investment adviser provided its assessment that the program had been operating effectively in managing the fund’s liquidity risk.

Investment Advisory Agreement Approval
The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), requires that the continuation of a fund’s investment advisory agreement must be specifically approved (1) by the vote of the trustees or by a vote of the shareholders of the fund, and (2) by the vote of a majority of the trustees who are not parties to the investment advisory agreement or “interested persons” of any party (the Independent Trustees), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. In connection with such approvals, the fund’s trustees must request and evaluate, and the investment adviser is required to furnish, such information as may be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the investment advisory agreement.
The Board of Trustees (the Board or the Trustees, as appropriate) calls and holds one or more meetings each year that are dedicated, in whole or in part, to considering whether to renew the investment advisory and administration agreement (the Agreement) between Schwab Capital Trust (the Trust) and Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (dba Schwab Asset Management) (the investment adviser) with respect to the existing funds in the Trust, including Schwab Balanced Fund (the Fund), and to review certain other agreements pursuant to which the investment adviser provides investment advisory services to certain other registered investment companies. In preparation for the meeting(s), the Board requests and reviews a wide variety of materials provided by the investment adviser, including information about the investment adviser’s affiliates, personnel, business goals and priorities, profitability, third-party oversight, corporate structure and operations. As part of the renewal process, the Independent Trustees’ legal counsel, on behalf of the Independent Trustees, sends an information request letter to the investment adviser seeking certain relevant information. The responses by the investment adviser are provided to the Trustees in the Board materials for their review prior to their meeting, and the Trustees are provided with the opportunity to request any additional materials. The Board also receives data provided by an independent provider of investment company data. 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 the Fund’s operations and performance, legal and compliance matters, risk management, portfolio turnover, and sales and marketing activity. In considering the renewal, the Independent Trustees receive advice from Independent Trustees’ legal counsel, including a memorandum regarding the responsibilities of trustees for the approval of investment advisory agreements. In addition, the Independent Trustees participate in question and answer sessions with representatives of the investment adviser and meet in executive session outside the presence of Fund management.
The Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, considered information specifically relating to the continuance of the Agreement with respect to the Fund at meetings held on May 16, 2022 and June 8, 2022, and approved the renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Fund for an additional one-year term at the meeting on June 8, 2022 called for the purpose of voting on such approval.
The Board’s approval of the continuance of the Agreement with respect to the Fund was based on consideration and evaluation of a variety of specific factors discussed at these meetings and at prior meetings, including:
| 1. | the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund under the Agreement, including the resources of the investment adviser and its affiliates dedicated to the Fund; |
| 2. | the Fund’s investment performance and how it compared to that of certain other comparable mutual funds and benchmark data; |
| 3. | the Fund’s expenses and how those expenses compared to those of certain other similar mutual funds; |
| 4. | the profitability of the investment adviser and its affiliates, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (Schwab), with respect to the Fund, including both direct and indirect benefits accruing to the investment adviser 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 the investment adviser to the Fund and the resources of the investment adviser and its affiliates dedicated to the Fund. In this regard, the Trustees evaluated, among other things, the investment adviser’s experience, track record, compliance program, resources dedicated to hiring and retaining skilled personnel and specialized talent, and information security resources. The Trustees also considered information provided by the investment adviser relating to services and support provided with respect to the Fund’s portfolio management team, portfolio strategy, and internal investment guidelines, as well as trading infrastructure, liquidity management, product design and analysis, shareholder communications, securities valuation, fund accounting and custody, and vendor and risk oversight. The Trustees also considered investments the investment adviser has made in its infrastructure, including modernizing the investment adviser’s technology and use of data, increasing expertise in key areas (including portfolio management and trade operations), and improving business
Schwab Balanced Fund | Annual Report
continuity, cybersecurity, due diligence, risk management processes, and information security programs, which are designed to provide enhanced services to the Fund and its shareholders. The Trustees considered Schwab’s overall financial condition and its reputation as a full service brokerage firm as well as the wide range of products, services and account features that benefit Fund shareholders who are 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 the investment adviser to the Fund and the resources of the investment adviser 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 mutual funds and applicable indices/benchmarks, in light of total return and market trends, as well as in consideration of the Fund’s investment style and strategy attributes and disclosures. As part of this review, the Trustees considered the composition of the peer category, selection criteria and the reputation of the independent provider of investment company data who prepared the peer category analysis. In evaluating the performance of the Fund, the Trustees considered the risk profile for the Fund and the appropriateness of the benchmark used to compare the performance of the Fund. The Trustees further considered the level of Fund performance in the context of their review of Fund expenses and the investment adviser’s profitability discussed below and also noted that the Board and a designated committee of the Board review performance throughout the year. 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 similar mutual funds, such peer groups and comparisons having been selected and calculated by an independent provider of investment company data. The investment adviser reported to the Board, and the Board took into account, the risk assumed by the investment adviser in the development of the Fund and provision of services as well as the competitive marketplace for financial products. The Trustees considered the effects of the investment adviser’s and Schwab’s practice of waiving certain fees to prevent total annual operating expenses of the Fund from exceeding a specified cap. The Trustees also considered the investment adviser’s contractual commitment to keep the expense cap for so long as it serves as the investment adviser to the Fund. The Trustees also considered fees charged by the investment adviser to other mutual funds and to other types of accounts, but, with respect to such other types of accounts, accorded less weight to such comparisons due to the different
legal, regulatory, compliance and operating features of mutual funds as compared to these other types of accounts, and any differences in the nature and scope of the services the investment adviser provides to these other accounts and any differences in the market for these types of accounts. The Trustees noted that shareholders of the Fund indirectly pay their pro rata share of the fees and expenses of the underlying funds in which the Fund invests. 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. The Trustees considered the compensation flowing to the investment adviser and its affiliates, directly or indirectly and reviewed profitability on a pre-tax basis, without regard to distribution expenses. In this connection, the Trustees reviewed management’s profitability analyses. The Trustees also reviewed profitability of the investment adviser relating to the Schwab fund complex as a whole, noting the benefits to Fund shareholders of being part of the Schwab fund complex, including the allocations of certain fixed costs across the Fund and other funds in the complex. The Trustees considered that the investment adviser is not charging any management fees at the Fund level; it being understood that there is a management fee at the underlying fund level. The Trustees also considered any other benefits derived by the investment adviser from its relationship with the Fund, such as whether, by virtue of its management of the Fund, the investment adviser obtains investment information or other research resources that aid it in providing advisory services to other clients. Also, because the Fund invests a portion of its assets in other funds within the Schwab fund complex, the Trustees considered that the investment adviser indirectly benefits from the Fund’s investments in other underlying funds managed by the investment adviser. The Trustees considered whether the 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 the investment adviser and its affiliates. The Trustees noted that the investment adviser continues to invest substantial sums in its business in order to provide enhanced research capabilities, services and systems to benefit the Fund. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the profitability of the investment adviser is reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Fund.
Economies of Scale. Although the Trustees recognized the difficulty of determining economies of scale with precision, the Trustees considered the potential existence of any economies of scale and whether those are passed along to the Fund’s shareholders through (i) the enhancement of services provided to the Fund in return for fees paid, including through investments by the investment adviser in its infrastructure, including modernizing the investment adviser’s technology and use of data, increasing expertise and capabilities in key areas (including portfolio and trade operations), and improving
Schwab Balanced Fund | Annual Report
business continuity, cybersecurity, due diligence and information security programs, which are designed to provide enhanced services to the Fund and its shareholders; (ii) graduated investment advisory fee schedules or unitary fee structures, fee waivers, or expense caps by the investment adviser and its affiliates for those funds in the Schwab fund complex with such features; and (iii) pricing a fund to scale and keeping overall expenses down as the fund grows. The Trustees acknowledged that, the investment adviser has shared any economies of scale with the Fund by investing in the investment adviser’s infrastructure, as discussed above, over time and that the investment adviser’s internal costs of providing investment management, technology, administrative, legal and compliance services to the Fund continue to increase as a result of regulatory or other developments. The Trustees considered that the investment adviser and its affiliates employ contractual expense caps to protect shareholders from high
fees, including for example, when fund assets are relatively small. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the Fund obtains reasonable benefits from economies of scale.
In the course of their deliberations, the Trustees may have accorded different weights to various factors and 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 the services provided and the related expenses borne by the investment adviser and its affiliates and such other matters as the Trustees considered to be relevant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment.

The index excludes certain types of securities, including tax-exempt state and local government series bonds, structured notes embedded with swaps or other special features, private placements, floating rate securities, inflation-linked bonds and Eurobonds. The index is market capitalization weighted and the securities in the index are updated on the last business day of each month.
Bloomberg US Intermediate Aggregate Bond Index An index that represents securities that are SEC-registered, taxable, and dollar denominated. The index covers the U.S. investment grade fixed rate bond market, with index components for government and corporate securities, mortgage pass-through securities, and asset-backed securities.
Bloomberg US Treasury Bills 1–3 Month Index An index that includes all publicly issued zero-coupon U.S. Treasury Bills that have a remaining maturity of less than 3 months but more than 1 month, are rated investment grade and have $300 million or more of outstanding face value. It excludes zero-coupon STRIPS.
bond A security representing a loan from the investor to the issuer. A bond typically pays interest at a fixed rate (the coupon rate) until a specified date (the maturity date), at which time the issuer returns the money borrowed (principal or face value) to the bondholder. Because of their structure, bonds are sometimes called “fixed-income securities” or “debt securities.”
An individual bond is subject to the credit risk of the issuer. Changes in interest rates can affect a bond’s market value prior to call or maturity. There is no guarantee that a bond’s yield to call or maturity will provide a positive return over the rate of inflation.
bond fund A bond fund is subject to the same credit, interest rate, and inflation risks as bonds. In addition, a bond fund incurs ongoing fees and expenses. A bond fund’s net asset value will fluctuate with the price of the underlying bonds and the portfolio turnover activity; return of principal is not guaranteed.
cap, capitalization See “market cap.”
capital gain, capital loss the difference between the amount paid for an investment and its value at a later time. If the investment has been sold, the capital gain or loss is considered a realized gain or loss. If the investment is still held, the capital gain or loss is considered unrealized appreciation or depreciation.
expense ratio The amount that is taken from a mutual fund’s assets each year to cover the fund’s operating expenses. An expense ratio of 0.50% means that a fund’s expenses amount to half of one percent of its average net assets a year.
FTSE non-US Dollar World Government Bond Index A market capitalization index that measures the total rate of return performance for the government bonds of 22 countries, excluding the U.S., with a remaining maturity of at least 1 year.
market cap, market capitalization The value of a company as determined by the total value of all shares of its stock outstanding.
MSCI EAFE Index (Net) A free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed markets in Europe, Australasia, and the Far East. 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.
MSCI Emerging Markets Index (Net) A free float-adjusted market capitalization weighted index that is designed to measure equity market performance in the global emerging markets. This series approximates the minimum possible dividend reinvestment. The 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 mutual fund. NAV is calculated by taking the fund’s total assets, subtracting liabilities, and dividing by the number of shares outstanding.
outstanding shares, shares outstanding When speaking of a company or mutual fund, indicates all shares currently held by investors.
price-to-book ratio (P/B) The market price of a company’s stock compared with its “book value.” A mutual fund’s P/B is the weighted average of the P/B of all stocks in the fund’s portfolio.
price-to-earnings ratio (P/E) The market price of a company’s stock compared with earnings over the past year. A mutual fund’s P/E is the weighted average of the P/E of all stocks in the fund’s portfolio.
return on equity (ROE) The average yearly rate of return for each dollar of investors’ money, measured over the past five years.
Russell 1000 Growth Index An index that measures the performance of those Russell 1000 Index companies with higher price-to-book ratios and higher forecasted growth values.

Dear Shareholder,
Geopolitical, economic, and market challenges abounded during the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022. Although the period started off strong, with markets reaching new highs in the final months of 2021, the subsequent 10 months were beset by rapidly rising inflation, sharply climbing interest rates, steeply declining stock prices, and the onset of a war in Europe as Russia invaded Ukraine. Economic growth in the United States and most of the world slowed. By the end of the period, the S&P 500® Index, a bellwether for the overall U.S. stock market, lost nearly 20% of its value from its early-January 2022 peak and returned -14.6% for the reporting period. The MSCI EAFE® Index (Net)*, a broad measure of developed international equity performance, declined by more than 25% between early-January 2022 highs and the end of the reporting period and returned -23.0% for the reporting period.
At Schwab Asset Management, we recognize that today’s turbulent investment environment may be unsettling for many investors. Market declines and volatility can rattle confidence even in well-established investment plans and can cause investors to impulsively react to market movements. At such times, it is helpful to remember that, even in the face of market turmoil and volatility, most investors are best served by maintaining a diversified portfolio that reflects their risk tolerance and long-term goals.
The Schwab Equity Index Funds are designed to be low-cost building blocks for diversified portfolios. They provide access to broad segments of the equities markets with different risk and return profiles, including small-cap, mid-cap, and large-cap stocks, those oriented toward value or growth, and equities from both U.S. and international markets. In addition, the funds have among the lowest expenses in the industry, along with no investment minimums, which can help investors achieve their financial goals by keeping investing costs down.
Thank you for investing with Schwab Asset Management, and for trusting us to help you achieve your financial goals. For more information about the Schwab Equity Index Funds, please continue reading this report. In addition, you can find further details about these funds by visiting our website at www.schwabassetmanagement.com. We are also happy to hear from you at 1-877-824-5615.
Sincerely,

The Investment Environment
For the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, U.S. and international equity markets lost ground. After several key market indices hit record highs through early January 2022, equity markets around the globe began to slide in reaction to growing headwinds, including accelerating inflation and the increasing likelihood of rising interest rates. In late February 2022, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine drove oil prices to over $100 per barrel for the first time since 2014 and roiled stock markets around the world. Albeit decelerating, COVID-19 continued to weigh on economies worldwide, with highly transmissible variants and subvariants keeping infection rates high in many areas. As the reporting period progressed, economic growth slowed, interest rates rose, and recession fears mounted. The U.S. dollar continued to exhibit strength against a basket of foreign currencies, ending the reporting period significantly stronger and generally reducing the returns of overseas investments in U.S. dollar terms. For the reporting period, the S&P 500® Index, a bellwether for the overall U.S. stock market, returned -14.61%. U.S. small-cap stocks underperformed U.S. large-cap stocks, with the Russell 2000® Index and the Russell 1000® Index returning -18.54% and -16.38%, respectively. Among U.S. large-cap stocks, growth stocks significantly underperformed value stocks, with the Russell 1000® Growth Index and Russell 1000® Value Index returning -24.60% and -7.00%, respectively. Among U.S. industry sectors, only energy generated strong positive returns, driven by soaring oil and gas prices. Traditionally defensive sectors, such as consumer staples, utilities, and health care, tended to outperform the market average, while cyclically sensitive sectors, such as consumer discretionary, real estate, and information technology, lagged. Outside the United States, the MSCI EAFE® Index (Net)*, a broad measure of developed international equity performance, returned -23.00% for the reporting period.
After a recovery from the dramatic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic through the end of 2021, U.S. gross domestic product (GDP) increased at an annualized rate of 6.9% for the fourth quarter. However, amid fading government stimuli, ongoing supply chain disruptions, persisting inflation, a tight labor market, and a widening U.S. trade deficit, GDP decreased at an annualized rate of -1.6% and -0.6% for the first and second quarters of 2022, respectively. GDP growth was positive for the third quarter of 2022, increasing at an annualized rate of 2.9%, driven primarily by energy exports. Consumer spending also grew but at a slower pace than in the second quarter. Inflation remained stubbornly

high, hitting a 40-year high in June due to imbalances in the labor market, supply chain bottlenecks, and soaring energy costs, before falling slightly by the end of the reporting period. The unemployment rate remained low, ending the reporting period near pre-pandemic lows.
Outside the United States, global economies also wrestled with the fallout of the COVID-19 pandemic, high energy costs, rising inflation, and the war in Ukraine. After spiking in early March 2022 as sanctions were imposed on Russian imports—and again in June on supply-and-demand imbalances—oil prices generally fell through the rest of the reporting period, ending at just over $86 per barrel. The eurozone, heavily impacted by the war in Ukraine and associated commodity price spikes, managed to eke out small gains in GDP for the fourth quarter of 2021 and first and second quarters of 2022, as COVID-19 restrictions eased and tourism increased in response to pent-up demand. The United Kingdom also posted small gains in GDP growth for the fourth quarter of 2021 and first and second quarters of 2022. Among emerging markets, China’s GDP growth rate remained positive but slowed notably as China dealt with numerous headwinds including the political landscape, an emphasis on domestic consumption over globalization, lockdowns and quarantines, and a severe property downturn as a result of stalled demand, a decline in financing for property development, halted construction on in progress projects, and homeowners pausing mortgage payments on incomplete builds. India’s GDP growth also remained positive over the reporting period, particularly in the second quarter of 2022, on rising consumer demand and a rapid decline in COVID-19 cases.
Monetary policy around the world varied. In the United States, after maintaining the federal funds rate in a range of 0.00% to 0.25% through mid-March 2022, as inflation continued to rise and indicators of economic activity and employment continued to strengthen, the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) shifted its stance. After issuing successively stronger signals that interest rates could begin to rise sooner in 2022 than previously anticipated, the Fed raised the federal funds rate five times during the reporting period—by 0.25% in mid-March, 0.50% in early May, 0.75% in mid-June, 0.75% in late July, and 0.75% in late September—in its ongoing efforts to achieve a return to price stability. The federal funds rate ended the reporting period in a range of 3.00% to 3.25%. In June, the Fed also began to reduce the $9 trillion in assets it held on its balance sheet, vowing to be even more aggressive than during its last round of quantitative tightening between 2017 and 2019. Outside the United States, central banks were similarly responsive. After holding its policy rate unchanged since March 2015, at 0.00%, the European Central Bank raised its interest rate three times over the reporting period in an effort to dampen demand and control inflation, which in October 2022 rose into double-digits. The Bank of England raised its key official bank rate seven times during the reporting period, bringing borrowing costs to a 13-year high as the Bank of England wrestles with soaring inflation. In contrast, the Bank of Japan continued to uphold its short-term interest rate target of -0.1%, unchanged since 2016, but raised its inflation forecast at its October 2022 meeting.

Schwab Equity Index Funds | Annual Report
Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund as of October 31, 2022
The Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund’s (the fund) goal is to track the total return of the S&P 500® Index (the index). The index includes the stocks of 500 leading U.S. publicly traded companies from a broad range of industries. The fund generally will seek to replicate the performance of the index by giving the same weight to a given stock as the index does. For more information concerning the fund’s investment objective, strategies, and risks, please see the fund’s prospectus.
Market Highlights. For the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, U.S. and international equity markets lost ground. After several key market indices hit record highs through early January 2022, equity markets around the globe began to slide in reaction to growing headwinds, including accelerating inflation and the increasing likelihood of rising interest rates. In late February 2022, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine drove oil prices to over $100 per barrel for the first time since 2014 and roiled stock markets around the world. Albeit decelerating, COVID-19 continued to weigh on economies worldwide, with highly transmissible variants and subvariants keeping infection rates high in many areas. As the reporting period progressed, economic growth slowed, interest rates rose, and recession fears mounted. Within the index, stocks in the energy and consumer staples sectors were the top performers, while stocks in the communication services and consumer discretionary sectors underperformed.
Performance. The fund generally tracked the index for the reporting period. The fund returned -14.63% for the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, compared with the index, which returned -14.61%. Differences between the return of the fund and the return of the index may be attributable to, among other things, the operational and transactional costs incurred by the fund and not the index.
Contributors and Detractors. The information technology sector detracted the most from the total return of the fund. Information technology stocks represented an average weight of approximately 28% of the fund’s investments and returned approximately -20% for the reporting period. One example from this sector is Microsoft Corp., which develops, manufactures, licenses, sells, and supports software products. The fund’s holdings of Microsoft Corp. represented an average weight of approximately 6% of the fund’s investments and returned approximately -29% for the reporting period.
The communication services sector also detracted from the total return of the fund, representing an average weight of approximately 9% of the fund’s investments and returning approximately -41% for the reporting period.
The energy sector contributed the most to the total return of the fund. Energy stocks represented an average weight of approximately 4% of the fund’s investments and returned approximately 65% for the reporting period. One example from this sector is Exxon Mobil Corp., which operates petroleum and petro chemicals businesses. Exxon Mobil Corp. represented an average weight of approximately 1% of the fund’s investments and returned approximately 80% for the reporting period.
The health care sector also contributed to the total return of the fund, representing an average weight of approximately 14% of the fund’s investments and returning approximately 1% for the reporting period.

Schwab 1000 Index Fund as of October 31, 2022
The Schwab 1000 Index Fund’s (the fund) goal is to match the total return of the Schwab 1000 Index® (the index). The index is a float-adjusted market capitalization weighted index that includes the 1,000 largest stocks of publicly traded companies in the United States, with size being determined by market capitalization (total market value of all shares outstanding). The fund generally will seek to replicate the performance of the index by giving the same weight to a given stock as the index does. For more information concerning the fund’s investment objective, strategies, and risks, please see the fund’s prospectus.
Market Highlights. For the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, U.S. and international equity markets lost ground. After several key market indices hit record highs through early January 2022, equity markets around the globe began to slide in reaction to growing headwinds, including accelerating inflation and the increasing likelihood of rising interest rates. In late February 2022, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine drove oil prices to over $100 per barrel for the first time since 2014 and roiled stock markets around the world. Albeit decelerating, COVID-19 continued to weigh on economies worldwide, with highly transmissible variants and subvariants keeping infection rates high in many areas. As the reporting period progressed, economic growth slowed, interest rates rose, and recession fears mounted. Within the index, stocks in the energy and consumer staples sectors were the top performers, while stocks in the communication services and consumer discretionary sectors underperformed.
Performance. The fund generally tracked the index for the reporting period. The fund returned -16.73% for the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, compared with the index, which returned -16.69%. Differences between the return of the fund and the return of the index may be attributable to, among other things, the operational and transactional costs incurred by the fund and not the index.
Contributors and Detractors. The information technology sector detracted the most from the total return of the fund. Information technology stocks represented an average weight of approximately 27% of the fund’s investments and returned approximately -24% for the reporting period. One example from this sector is Microsoft Corp., which develops, manufactures, licenses, sells, and supports software products. The fund’s holdings of Microsoft Corp. represented an average weight of approximately 5% of the fund’s investments and returned approximately -29% for the reporting period.
The communications services sector also detracted from the total return of the fund, representing an average weight of approximately 9% of the fund’s investments and returning approximately -41% for the reporting period.
The energy sector contributed the most to the total return of the fund. Energy stocks represented an average weight of approximately 4% of the fund’s investments and returned approximately 65% for the reporting period. One example from this sector is Exxon Mobil Corp., which operates petroleum and petro chemicals businesses. The fund’s holdings of Exxon Mobil Corp. represented an average weight of approximately 1% of the fund’s investments and returned approximately 80% for the reporting period.
The consumer staples sector also contributed to the total return of the fund, representing an average weight of approximately 6% of the fund’s investments and returning approximately 4% for the reporting period.
Management views and portfolio holdings may have changed since the report date.

The Schwab Total Stock Market Index Fund’s (the fund) goal is to track the total return of the entire U.S. stock market, as measured by the Dow Jones U.S. Total Stock Market IndexSM (the index).

Schwab U.S. Mid-Cap Index Fund as of October 31, 2022
The Schwab U.S. Mid-Cap Index Fund’s (the fund) goal is to track the performance of a benchmark index that measures the total return of mid-capitalization U.S. stocks. To pursue its goal, the fund generally invests in securities that are included in the Russell Midcap® Index (the index). The fund generally will seek to replicate the performance of the index by giving the same weight to a given security as the index does. For more information concerning the fund’s investment objective, strategies, and risks, please see the fund’s prospectus.
Market Highlights For the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, U.S. and international equity markets lost ground. After several key market indices hit record highs through early January 2022, equity markets around the globe began to slide in reaction to growing headwinds, including accelerating inflation and the increasing likelihood of rising interest rates. In late February 2022, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine drove oil prices to over $100 per barrel for the first time since 2014 and roiled stock markets around the world. Albeit decelerating, COVID-19 continued to weigh on economies worldwide, with highly transmissible variants and subvariants keeping infection rates high in many areas. As the reporting period progressed, economic growth slowed, interest rates rose, and recession fears mounted. U.S. small-cap stocks underperformed U.S. large-cap stocks. Within the index, stocks in the energy and consumer staples sectors were the top performers, while stocks in the communication services and information technology sectors underperformed.
Performance. The fund generally tracked the index for the reporting period. The fund returned -17.15% during the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, compared with the index, which returned -17.17%.
Contributors and Detractors. The energy sector contributed the most to the total return of the fund. Energy stocks represented an average weight of approximately 5% of the fund’s investments and returned approximately 58% for the reporting period. One example from this sector is Devon Energy Corp., which operates as an independent energy company that is involved primarily in oil and gas exploration, development and production, the transportation of oil, gas, and natural gas liquids, and the processing of natural gas. The fund’s holdings of Devon Energy Corp. represented an average weight of less than 1% of the fund’s investments and returned approximately 108% for the reporting period.
The consumer staples sector also contributed slightly to the total return of the fund, representing an average weight of approximately 4% of the fund’s investments and returning approximately 6% for the reporting period.
The information technology sector detracted the most from the total return of the fund. Information technology stocks represented an average weight of approximately 18% of the fund’s investments and returned approximately -30% for the reporting period. One example from this sector is DocuSign, Inc., which provides electronic signature solutions. The fund’s holdings of DocuSign, Inc. represented an average weight of less than 1% of the fund’s investments and returned approximately -83% for the reporting period.
The consumer discretionary sector also detracted from the total return of the fund, representing an average weight of approximately 12% of the fund’s investments and returning approximately -28% for the reporting period.

Schwab Equity Index Funds | Annual Report
Schwab International Index Fund as of October 31, 2022
The Schwab International Index Fund’s (the fund) goal is to track the performance of a benchmark index that measures the total return of large, publicly traded non-U.S. companies from countries with developed equity markets outside of the United States. To purse its goal, the fund generally invests in stocks that are included in the MSCI EAFE® Index (the index). The index includes stocks from developed markets in Europe, Australasia and the Far East. The fund generally will seek to replicate the performance of the index by giving the same weight to a given stock as the index does. For more information concerning the fund’s investment objective, strategies, and risks, please see the fund’s prospectus.
Market Highlights. For the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, U.S. and international equity markets lost ground. After several key market indices hit record highs through early January 2022, equity markets around the globe began to slide in reaction to growing headwinds, including accelerating inflation and the increasing likelihood of rising interest rates. In late February 2022, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine drove oil prices to over $100 per barrel for the first time since 2014 and roiled stock markets around the world. Albeit decelerating, COVID-19 continued to weigh on economies worldwide, with highly transmissible variants and subvariants keeping infection rates high in many areas. As the reporting period progressed, economic growth slowed, interest rates rose, and recession fears mounted. The U.S. dollar continued to exhibit strength against a basket of foreign currencies, ending the reporting period significantly stronger and generally reducing the returns of overseas investments in U.S. dollar terms.
Performance. The fund generally tracked the index for the reporting period. The fund returned -23.12% for the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, compared with the index, which returned -23.00%1. Differences between the return of the fund and the return of the index may be attributable to, among other things, the operational and transactional costs incurred by the fund and not the index.
Contributors and Detractors. Stocks from Japan detracted the most from the total return of the fund. Japanese stocks represented an average weight of approximately 23% of the fund’s investments and returned approximately -24% in U.S. dollar terms for the reporting period. One example from this market is Sony Group Corp., which manufactures and distributes electronics products and provides related solutions. The fund’s holdings of Sony Group Corp. represented an average weight of less than 1% of the fund’s investments and returned approximately -41% in U.S. dollar terms for the reporting period.
Stocks from the United Kingdom also detracted from the total return of the fund, representing an average weight of approximately 15% of the fund’s investments and returning approximately -12% in U.S. dollar terms for the reporting period.
Over the reporting period, no markets contributed to the total return of the fund. However, stocks from New Zealand detracted the least from the total return of the fund. Stocks from New Zealand represented an average weight of less than 1% of the fund’s investments and returned approximately -30% in U.S. dollar terms for the reporting period. One example from this market is Spark New Zealand Ltd., which provides telecommunication services. Spark New Zealand Ltd. represented an average weight of less than 1% of the fund’s investments and returned approximately -3% in U.S. dollar terms for the reporting period.
Stocks from Austria also only slightly detracted from the total return of the fund, representing an average weight of less than 1% of the fund’s investments and returning approximately -35% in U.S. dollar terms for the reporting period.

Fund Expenses (Unaudited)
Examples for a $1,000 Investment
As a fund shareholder, you may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees.
The expense examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing cost (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare this cost with the ongoing cost of investing in other mutual funds. These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested for six months beginning May 1, 2022 and held through October 31, 2022.
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. 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.

Each fund in this report offers one share class. Shares are bought and sold at closing net asset value per share (NAV), which is the price for all outstanding shares of a fund. Each share has a par value of 1/1,000 of a cent, and the funds’ Board of Trustees (the Board) may authorize the issuance of as many shares as necessary.
Each fund maintains its own account for purposes of holding assets and accounting, and is considered a separate entity for tax purposes. Within its account, each fund may also keep certain assets in segregated accounts, as required by securities law.
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the funds use in their preparation of financial statements. The funds follow the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) 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 may invest in certain mutual funds and exchange-traded funds (ETFs), which are referred to as "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) and are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
(a) Security Valuation:
Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Board has designated authority to a Valuation Designee, the funds’ investment adviser, to make fair valuation determinations under adopted procedures, subject to Board oversight. The investment adviser has formed a Pricing Committee to administer the pricing and valuation of portfolio securities and other assets and liabilities and to ensure that prices used for internal purposes or provided by third parties reasonably reflect fair value. The Valuation Designee may utilize independent pricing services, quotations from securities and financial instrument dealers and other market sources to determine fair value.
Securities held in the funds’ portfolio are valued every business day. The following valuation policies and procedures are used by the Valuation Designee 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 the mean of 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.
• Foreign equity security fair valuation: The Valuation Designee has adopted procedures to fair value foreign equity securities that are traded in markets that close prior to the valuation of a fund’s holdings. By fair valuing securities whose prices may have been affected by events occurring after the close of trading, the Valuation Designee seeks to establish prices that investors might expect to realize upon the current sales of these securities. This methodology is designed to deter “arbitrage” market timers, who seek to exploit delays between the change in the value of a fund’s portfolio holdings and the NAV of a fund’s shares and seeks to help ensure that the prices at which a fund’s shares are purchased and redeemed are fair and do not result in dilution of shareholder interest or other harm to shareholders. When fair value pricing is used at the open or close of a reporting period, it may cause a temporary divergence between the return of a fund and that of its comparative index or benchmark.
• Futures contracts: Futures contracts are valued at their settlement prices as of the close of their exchanges.
• Mutual funds: Mutual funds are valued at their respective NAVs.
• Cash management sweep time deposits: Balances held in cash management sweep time deposits were accounted for on a cost basis, which approximates fair value.
• Securities for which no quoted value is available: The Valuation Designee has adopted procedures to fair value a fund’s securities when market prices are not “readily available” or are unreliable. For example, a security may be fair valued 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. Fair value determinations are made in good faith in accordance with adopted valuation procedures. The Valuation Designee considers a number of factors, including unobservable market inputs, when arriving at fair value. The Valuation Designee may employ methods 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. 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.
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 methods 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 it is determined 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 the Valuation Designee’s judgment will be required to estimate fair value.
Schwab Equity Index Funds | Annual Report
Schwab Equity Index Funds
Financial Notes (continued)
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
• Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical investments — 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, mutual funds, 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 underlying securities 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. In addition, international securities whose markets close hours before the valuation of a fund’s holdings may require fair valuations due to significant movement in the U.S. markets occurring after the daily close of foreign markets. The Valuation Designee has approved a vendor that calculates fair valuations of international equity securities based on a number of factors that appear to correlate to the movements in the U.S. markets.
• Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Valuation Designee’s 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 readily available for these securities, one or more valuation methods are used for which sufficient and reliable data is available. The inputs used 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 in the absence of market information. Assumptions used due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting fair value and therefore the funds’ results of operations.
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The levels associated with valuing the funds’ investments as of October 31, 2022 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 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 value may change daily.
Passive Foreign Investment Companies: Certain funds may own shares in certain foreign corporations that meet the Internal Revenue Code definition of a Passive Foreign Investment Company (PFIC). The funds may elect for tax purposes to mark-to-market annually the shares of each PFIC lot held and would be required to distribute as ordinary income to shareholders any such marked-to-market gains (as well as any gains realized on sale).
Securities Lending: Under the trusts’ Securities Lending Program, a fund (lender), may make short-term loans of its securities to another party (borrower) to generate additional revenue for the fund. The borrower pledges collateral in the form of cash, securities issued or fully guaranteed by the U.S. government or foreign governments, or letters of credit issued by a bank. Collateral at the individual loan level is required to 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 pursuant to Rule 2a-7 under 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 or the lending agent to terminate any loan at any given time and the securities must be returned within the earlier of the standard trade settlement period or the specified time period under the relevant securities lending agreement. 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

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
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. The aggregate fair 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. Securities lending fees paid to the unaffiliated lending agents start at 9% of gross lending revenue, with subsequent breakpoints to a low of 5%. In this context, the gross lending revenue equals the income received from the investment of cash collateral and fees paid by borrowers less any rebates paid to the borrowers. Any expenses charged by the cash collateral fund are in addition to these fees. All remaining revenue is retained by the fund, as applicable. No portion of lending revenue is paid to or retained by the investment adviser or any of its affiliates.
As of October 31, 2022, Schwab 1000 Index Fund, Schwab Small-Cap Index Fund, Schwab Total Stock Market Index Fund, Schwab U.S. Large-Cap Growth Index Fund, Schwab U.S. Large-Cap Value Index Fund, Schwab U.S. Mid-Cap Index Fund and Schwab International Index Fund had securities on loan, all of which were classified as common stocks. The value of the securities on loan and the related collateral as of October 31, 2022, if any, are disclosed in each fund’s Portfolio Holdings and Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Cash Management Transactions: Effective May 23, 2022, Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. (BBH) was replaced by Citibank N.A. as custodian of the funds, except for Schwab 1000 Index Fund, Schwab U.S. Large-Cap Growth Index Fund, Schwab U.S. Large-Cap Value Index Fund and Schwab U.S. Mid-Cap Index Fund. The funds no longer subscribe to the BBH Cash Management Service Sweep (CMS Sweep). The BBH CMS Sweep was an investment product that automatically swept the funds’ cash balances into overnight offshore time deposits with either the BBH Grand Cayman branch or a branch of a pre-approved commercial bank. This fully automated program allowed the funds to earn interest on cash balances. Excess cash invested with deposit institutions domiciled outside of the U.S., as with any offshore deposit, was subject to sovereign actions in the jurisdiction of the deposit institution including, but not limited to, freeze, seizure or diminution. The funds assumed the risk associated with the repayment of principal and payment of interest on such instruments by the institution with which the deposit is ultimately placed. The funds terminated the CMS Sweep program and cash was returned to the funds prior to terminating services with BBH.
Cash Investments: The funds may invest a portion of their assets in cash. Cash includes cash bank balances in an interest-bearing demand deposit account with maturity on demand by the funds, except for Schwab 1000 Index Fund, Schwab U.S. Large-Cap Growth Index Fund, Schwab U.S. Large-Cap Value Index Fund and Schwab U.S. Mid-Cap Index Fund.
Central Securities Depositories Regulation: Effective February 1, 2022, the Central Securities Depositories Regulation (CSDR) introduced new measures for the authorization and supervision of European Union Central Security Depositories and created a common set of prudential, organizational, and conduct of business standards at a European level. CSDR is designed to support securities settlement and operational aspects of securities settlement, including the provision of shorter settlement periods; mandatory buy-ins; and cash penalties, to prevent and address settlement fails. CSDR measures are aimed to prevent settlement fails by ensuring that all transaction details are provided to facilitate settlement, as well as further incentivizing timely settlement by imposing cash penalty fines and buy-ins. The Schwab International Index Fund may be subject to pay cash penalties and may also receive cash penalties with certain counterparties in instances where there are settlement fails. These cash penalties are included in net realized gains (losses) on sales of securities in the fund’s Statement of Operations, if any.
(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 and unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses are reported in foreign currency transactions or translations in the Statement of Operations. The funds do not isolate the portion of the fluctuations on investments resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rates from the fluctuations in market prices of investments held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.

Financial Notes (continued)
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
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 appreciation 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, in the form of cash or non-cash income such as in the form of additional securities, 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 date the ex-dividend date is confirmed. 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.
The Schwab International Index Fund filed claims to recover taxes previously withheld in certain European Union countries on the basis that those countries had purportedly violated certain provisions in the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union. These filings are subject to various administrative and judicial proceedings within these countries, and all professional fees associated with these filings have been paid by the investment adviser. For additional details see Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions in financial note 4, Other Affiliated Transactions.
(e) Expenses:
Pursuant to an Amended and Restated Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement (Advisory Agreement) between the investment adviser and each trust, the investment adviser pays the operating expenses of each fund, excluding acquired fund fees and expenses, taxes, any brokerage expenses, and extraordinary or non-routine expenses. Taxes, any brokerage expenses and extraordinary or non-routine expenses that are specific to a fund are charged directly to the fund. Acquired fund fees and expenses are indirect expenses incurred by a fund through its investments in underlying funds.
(f) Distributions to Shareholders:
The funds make distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, once a year. To receive a distribution, you must be a registered shareholder on the record date. Distributions are paid to shareholders on the payable date.
(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 under subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended. 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.
(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 accrued as of October 31, 2022, if any, are reflected in each fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
(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) Regulatory Update:
In October 2022, the SEC adopted rule and form amendments to require mutual funds and ETFs to transmit concise and visually engaging streamlined annual and semiannual reports to shareholders that highlight key information deemed important for retail investors to assess and monitor their fund investments. Other information, including financial statements, will no longer appear in funds’ streamlined shareholder reports but must be available online, delivered free of charge upon request, and filed on a semiannual basis on Form N-CSR. The rule and form amendments will be effective on January 24, 2023 and the compliance date will be July 24, 2024. At this time, management is evaluating the impact of these rule and form amendment changes on the content of the current shareholder report and the newly created annual and semiannual streamlined shareholder reports.
3. Risk Factors:
Investing in the funds may involve certain risks, as discussed in the funds’ prospectuses, including, but not limited to, those described below. Any of these risks could cause an investor to lose money.
Market Risk. Financial markets rise and fall in response to a variety of factors, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably. Markets may be impacted by economic, political, regulatory and other conditions, including economic sanctions and other government actions. In addition, the occurrence of global events, such as war, terrorism, environmental disasters, natural disasters and epidemics, may also negatively affect the financial markets. As with any investment whose performance is tied to these markets, the value of an investment in a fund will fluctuate, which means that an investor could lose money over short or long periods.
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.
Investment Style Risk. The funds are index funds. Therefore, each fund follows the securities included in its respective index during upturns as well as downturns. Because of its indexing strategy, a fund does not take steps to reduce market exposure or to lessen the effects of a declining market. In addition, because of a fund’s expenses, a fund’s performance may be below that of the index. Errors relating to the index may occur from time to time and may not be identified by the index provider for a period of time. In addition, market disruptions could cause delays in an index’s rebalancing schedule. Such errors and/or market disruptions may result in losses for a fund.
Tracking Error Risk. As index funds, each fund seeks to track the performance of its respective 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.
Sampling Index Tracking Risk. To the extent a fund uses sampling techniques, a fund will not fully replicate its index and may hold securities not included in the index. As a result, a fund will be subject to the risk that the investment adviser’s investment strategy, the implementation of which is subject to a number of constraints, may not produce the intended results. If a fund utilizes a sampling approach, it may not track the return of the index as well as it would if the fund purchased all of the securities in the index.
Concentration Risk. To the extent that a fund’s or its respective index’s portfolio is concentrated in the securities of issuers in a particular market, industry, group of industries, sector, country or asset class, the fund may be adversely affected by the performance of those securities, may be subject to increased price volatility and may be more vulnerable to adverse economic, market, political or regulatory occurrences affecting that market, industry, group of industries, sector, country or asset class.
Market Capitalization Risk. Securities issued by companies of different market capitalizations tend to go in and out of favor based on market and economic conditions. During a period when securities of a particular market capitalization fall behind other types of investments, the fund’s performance could be impacted.
Large-Cap Company Risk. Large-cap companies are generally more mature and the securities issued by these companies may not be able to reach the same levels of growth as the securities issued by small- or mid-cap companies.
Schwab Equity Index Funds | Annual Report
Schwab Equity Index Funds
Financial Notes (continued)
3. Risk Factors (continued):
Mid-Cap Company Risk. Mid-cap companies may be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic events than larger, more established companies and the value of securities issued by these companies may move sharply.
Small-Cap Company Risk. Securities issued by small-cap companies may be riskier than those issued by larger companies, and their prices may move sharply, especially during market upturns and downturns.
Growth Investing Risk. Growth stocks can be volatile. Growth companies usually invest a high portion of earnings in their businesses and may lack the dividends of value stocks that can cushion stock prices in a falling market. The prices of growth stocks are based largely on projections of the issuer’s future earnings and revenues. If a company’s earnings or revenues fall short of expectations, its stock price may fall dramatically. Growth stocks may also be more expensive relative to their earnings or assets compared to value or other stocks.
Value Investing Risk. Certain funds emphasize a “value” style of investing, which targets undervalued companies with characteristics for improved valuations. This style of investing is subject to the risk that the valuations never improve or that the returns on “value” securities may not move in tandem with the returns on other styles of investing or the stock market in general.
Foreign Investment Risk. A fund’s investments in securities of foreign issuers involve certain risks that may be 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); 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. There is a risk that investments in securities denominated in, and/or receiving revenues in, foreign currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar. Foreign securities also include American Depositary Receipts, Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs) and European Depositary Receipts, which may be less liquid than the underlying shares in their primary trading market, and GDRs, in particular, 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 large percentage of the fund’s assets, the fund’s performance may be adversely affected by the economic, political, regulatory and social conditions in those countries, and the fund’s price may be more volatile than the price of a fund that is geographically diversified.
Derivatives Risk. A fund may use derivatives to enhance returns or hedge against market declines. Examples of derivatives are futures and options on futures. 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. The use of derivatives that are subject to regulation by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) could cause a fund to become a commodity pool, which would require the fund to comply with certain CFTC rules.
A fund’s use of derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. Certain of these risks, such as liquidity risk and market risk, are discussed elsewhere in this section. A fund’s use of derivatives is also subject to lack of availability risk, credit risk, leverage 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 a fund. Valuation risk is the risk that a particular derivative may be valued incorrectly. Correlation risk is the risk that changes in the value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index. Tax risk is the risk that the use of derivatives may cause a fund to realize higher amounts of short-term capital gains. A fund’s use of derivatives could reduce the fund’s performance, increase its volatility, and could cause the fund to lose more than the initial amount invested.
Liquidity Risk. A fund may be unable to sell certain securities, such as illiquid securities, readily at a favorable time or price, or the fund may have to sell them at a loss.
Securities Lending Risk. Securities lending involves the risk of loss of rights in, or delay in recovery of, the loaned securities if the borrower fails to return the security loaned or becomes insolvent.
Please refer to the funds’ prospectus for a more complete description of the principal risks of investing in the funds.

As of October 31, 2022, the balance of professional fees related to foreign withholding tax subject to future reimbursement by the Schwab International Index Fund to the investment adviser was $17,455.
No other amounts for additional tax reclaims are reflected in the financial statements due to the uncertainty surrounding the ultimate resolution of proceedings, the likelihood of receipt of these claims, and the potential timing of payment.
Interfund Borrowing and Lending
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. 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. The interfund lending facility is subject to the oversight and periodic review by the Board. The funds had no interfund borrowing or lending activity during the period.
Interfund Transactions
The funds may engage in direct transactions with certain other funds in the Fund Complex in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board pursuant to Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act. When one fund is seeking to sell a security that another is seeking to buy, an interfund transaction can allow both funds to benefit by reducing transaction costs. This practice is limited to funds that share the same investment adviser, trustees and/or officers. For the period ended October 31, 2022, each fund’s purchases and sales of securities with other funds in the Fund Complex as well as any realized gains (losses) were as follows:
| | PURCHASE COST | SALE PROCEEDS | REALIZED GAINS (LOSSES) |
| Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund | $318,195,998 | $148,096,558 | ($58,405,895) |

5. Board of Trustees:
The Board may include people who are officers and/or directors of the investment adviser or its affiliates. Federal securities law limits the percentage of such “interested persons” who may serve on a trust’s board, and the trusts were in compliance with these limitations throughout the report period. The funds do not pay any interested or non-interested (independent trustees) trustees. The independent trustees are paid by the investment adviser. For information regarding the trustees, please refer to the Trustees and Officers table at the end of this report.
6. Borrowing from Banks:
During the period, the funds were participants with other funds in the Fund Complex in a joint, syndicated, committed $850 million line of credit (the Syndicated Credit Facility), which matured on September 29, 2022. On September 29, 2022, the Syndicated Credit Facility was amended to run for a new 364 day period with the line of credit amount increasing to $1 billion, maturing on September 28, 2023. Under the terms of the Syndicated Credit Facility, in addition to the investment adviser paying the interest charged on any borrowings by a fund, the investment adviser paid a commitment fee of 0.15% per annum on the funds’ proportionate share of the unused portion of the Syndicated Credit Facility.
During the period, the funds were participants with other funds in the Fund Complex in a joint, unsecured, uncommitted $400 million line of credit (the Uncommitted Credit Facility), with State Street Bank and Trust Company, which matured on September 29, 2022. On September 29, 2022, the Uncommitted Credit Facility was amended to run for a new 364 day period with the line of credit amount remaining unchanged, maturing on September 28, 2023. Under the terms of the Uncommitted Credit Facility, the investment adviser pays interest on the amount a fund borrows. There were no borrowings from either line of credit during the period.

For the period ended October 31, 2022, where applicable, the funds realized net capital gains or losses resulting from in-kind redemptions. 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 gains or losses on sales of in-kind redemptions for the period ended October 31, 2022, are disclosed in the funds’ Statements of Operations, if any.

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 reflect the differing character of certain income items and net realized gains and losses for financial statement and tax purposes, and may result in reclassification among certain capital accounts on the financial statements. The funds may also designate a portion of the amount paid to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for tax purposes.
Permanent book and tax basis differences may result in reclassifications between components of net assets as required. The adjustments will have no impact on net assets or the results of operations.
As of October 31, 2022, 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 fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, the funds did not incur any interest or penalties.
10. 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 of Schwab Investments and Schwab Capital Trust and Shareholders of Schwab 1000 Index Fund, Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund, Schwab Small-Cap Index Fund, Schwab Total Stock Market Index Fund, Schwab U.S. Large-Cap Growth Index Fund, Schwab U.S. Large-Cap Value Index Fund, Schwab U.S. Mid-Cap Index Fund, and Schwab International Index Fund:
Opinion on the Financial Statements and Financial Highlights
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio holdings, of Schwab 1000 Index Fund, one of the funds constituting Schwab Investments, and Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund, Schwab Small-Cap Index Fund, Schwab Total Stock Market Index Fund, Schwab U.S. Large-Cap Growth Index Fund, Schwab U.S. Large-Cap Value Index Fund, Schwab U.S. Mid-Cap Index Fund, and Schwab International Index Fund (the “Funds”), seven of the funds constituting Schwab Capital Trust, as of October 31, 2022, the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the three years in the period then ended, and the related notes. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of October 31, 2022, and the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the three years in the period then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The financial highlights for each of the two years in the period ended October 31, 2019 were audited by other auditors, whose report, dated December 16, 2019, expressed an unqualified opinion on such financial highlights.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Funds are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2022, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Liquidity Risk Management Program (unaudited)
The funds have adopted and implemented a liquidity risk management program (the “program”) as required by Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The funds’ Board of Trustees (the “Board”) has designated the funds’ investment adviser, Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc., dba Schwab Asset Management, as the administrator of the program. Personnel of the investment adviser or its affiliates conduct the day-to-day operation of the program.
Under the program, the investment adviser manages a fund’s liquidity risk, which is the risk that the fund could not meet shareholder redemption requests without significant dilution of remaining shareholders’ interests in the fund. The program is reasonably designed to assess and manage a fund’s liquidity risk, taking into consideration the fund’s investment strategy and the liquidity of its portfolio investments during normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed conditions; its historical redemption history and shareholder concentrations; and its cash holdings and access to other funding sources, including the custodian overdraft facility and lines of credit. The investment adviser’s process of determining the degree of liquidity of each fund’s investments is supported by third-party liquidity assessment vendors.
The funds’ Board reviewed a report at its meeting held on September 19, 2022 prepared by the investment adviser regarding the operation and effectiveness of the program for the period June 1, 2021, through May 31, 2022, which included individual fund liquidity risk metrics. No significant liquidity events impacting any of the funds were noted in the report. In addition, the investment adviser provided its assessment that the program had been operating effectively in managing each fund’s liquidity risk.

Investment Advisory Agreement Approval
The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), requires that the continuation of a fund’s investment advisory agreement must be specifically approved (1) by the vote of the trustees or by a vote of the shareholders of the fund, and (2) by the vote of a majority of the trustees who are not parties to the investment advisory agreement or “interested persons” of any party (the Independent Trustees), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. In connection with such approvals, the fund’s trustees must request and evaluate, and the investment adviser is required to furnish, such information as may be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the investment advisory agreement.
The Board of Trustees (the Board or the Trustees, as appropriate) calls and holds one or more meetings each year that are dedicated, in whole or in part, to considering whether to renew the amended and restated investment advisory and administration agreements (the Agreements) between Schwab Capital Trust and Schwab Investments (collectively, the Trusts) and Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (dba Schwab Asset Management) (the investment adviser) with respect to the existing funds in the Trusts, including Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund, Schwab 1000 Index Fund, Schwab Small-Cap Index Fund, Schwab Total Stock Market Index Fund, Schwab International Index Fund, Schwab U.S. Large-Cap Growth Index Fund, Schwab U.S. Large-Cap Value Index Fund, and Schwab U.S. Mid-Cap Index Fund (each, a Fund and collectively, the Funds), and to review certain other agreements pursuant to which the investment adviser provides investment advisory services to certain other registered investment companies. In preparation for the meeting(s), the Board requests and reviews a wide variety of materials provided by the investment adviser, including information about the investment adviser’s affiliates, personnel, business goals and priorities, profitability, third-party oversight, corporate structure and operations. As part of the renewal process, the Independent Trustees’ legal counsel, on behalf of the Independent Trustees, sends an information request letter to the investment adviser seeking certain relevant information. The responses by the investment adviser are provided to the Trustees in the Board materials for their review prior to their meeting, and the Trustees are provided with the opportunity to request any additional materials. The Board also receives data provided by an independent provider of investment company data. 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 the Funds’ operations and performance, legal and compliance matters, risk management, portfolio turnover, and sales and marketing activity. In considering the renewal, the Independent Trustees receive advice from Independent Trustees’ legal counsel, including a memorandum regarding the responsibilities of
trustees for the approval of investment advisory agreements. In addition, the Independent Trustees participate in question and answer sessions with representatives of the investment adviser and meet in executive session outside the presence of Fund management.
The Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, considered information specifically relating to the continuance of the Agreements with respect to the Funds at meetings held on May 16, 2022 and June 8, 2022, and approved the renewal of the Agreements with respect to the Funds for an additional one-year term at the meeting on June 8, 2022 called for the purpose of voting on such approval.
The Board’s approval of the continuance of the Agreements with respect to the Funds was based on consideration and evaluation of a variety of specific factors discussed at these meetings and at prior meetings, including:
| 1. | the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to each Fund under the Agreements, including the resources of the investment adviser and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds; |
| 2. | each Fund’s investment performance and how it compared to that of certain other comparable mutual funds and benchmark data; |
| 3. | each Fund’s expenses and how those expenses compared to those of certain other similar mutual funds; |
| 4. | the profitability of the investment adviser and its affiliates, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (Schwab), with respect to each Fund, including both direct and indirect benefits accruing to the investment adviser and its affiliates; and |
| 5. | the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as each Fund grows and whether fee levels in the Agreements reflect those economies of scale for the benefit of Fund investors. |
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Board considered the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the investment adviser to the Funds and the resources of the investment adviser and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds. In this regard, the Trustees evaluated, among other things, the investment adviser’s experience, track record, compliance program, resources dedicated to hiring and retaining skilled personnel and specialized talent, and information security resources. The Trustees also considered information provided by the investment adviser relating to services and support provided with respect to each Fund’s portfolio management team, portfolio strategy, and internal investment guidelines, as well as trading infrastructure, liquidity management, product design and analysis, shareholder communications, securities valuation, fund accounting and custody, and vendor and risk

Schwab Equity Index Funds
oversight. The Trustees also considered investments the investment adviser has made in its infrastructure, including modernizing the investment adviser’s technology and use of data, increasing expertise in key areas (including portfolio management and trade operations), and improving business continuity, cybersecurity, due diligence, risk management processes, and information security programs, which are designed to provide enhanced services to the Funds and their shareholders. The Trustees considered Schwab’s overall financial condition and its reputation as a full service brokerage firm, as well as the wide range of products, services, and account features that benefit Fund shareholders who are 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 the investment adviser to the Funds and the resources of the investment adviser and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds supported renewal of the Agreements with respect to the Funds.
Fund Performance. The Board considered each Fund’s performance in determining whether to renew the Agreements with respect to such Fund. Specifically, the Trustees considered each Fund’s performance relative to a peer category of other mutual funds and applicable indices/benchmarks, in light of total return and market trends, as well as in consideration of each Fund’s investment style and strategy attributes and disclosures. As part of this review, the Trustees considered the composition of the peer category, selection criteria and the reputation of the independent provider of investment company data who prepared the peer category analysis. In evaluating the performance of each Fund, the Trustees considered the risk profile for such Fund and such Fund’s demonstrated performance in tracking its benchmark index. The Trustees further considered the level of Fund performance in the context of their review of Fund expenses and the investment adviser’s profitability discussed below and also noted that the Board and a designated committee of the Board review performance throughout the year. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the performance of each Fund supported renewal of the Agreements with respect to such Fund.
Fund Expenses. With respect to each Fund’s expenses, the Trustees considered the rate of compensation called for by the Agreements, and each Fund’s operating expense ratio, in each case, in comparison to those of other similar mutual funds, such peer groups and comparisons having been selected and calculated by an independent provider of investment company data. The investment adviser reported to the Board, and the Board took into account, the risk assumed by the investment adviser in the development of the Funds and provision of services as well as the competitive marketplace for financial products. The Trustees also considered fees charged by the investment adviser to ETFs, other mutual funds and to other types of accounts, but, with respect to such other types of accounts, accorded less weight to such comparisons due to
the different legal, regulatory, compliance and operating features of mutual funds as compared to these other types of accounts, and any differences in the nature and scope of the services the investment adviser provides to these other accounts, as well as differences in the market for these types of accounts. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the expenses of each Fund are reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreements with respect to such Fund.
Profitability. The Trustees considered the compensation flowing to the investment adviser and its affiliates, directly or indirectly and reviewed profitability on a pre-tax basis, without regard to distribution expenses. In this connection, the Trustees reviewed management’s profitability analyses. The Trustees also reviewed profitability of the investment adviser relating to the Schwab fund complex as a whole, noting the benefits to Fund shareholders of being part of the Schwab fund complex, including the allocations of certain fixed costs across the Funds and other funds in the complex. The Trustees also considered any other benefits derived by the investment adviser from its relationship with the Funds, such as whether, by virtue of its management of the Funds, the investment adviser obtains investment information or other research resources that aid it in providing advisory services to other clients. The Trustees considered whether the compensation and profitability with respect to the Funds under the Agreements and other service agreements were reasonable and justified in light of the quality of all services rendered to the Funds by the investment adviser and its affiliates. The Trustees noted that the investment adviser continues to invest substantial sums in its business in order to provide enhanced research capabilities, services and systems to benefit the Funds. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the profitability of the investment adviser with respect to each Fund is reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreements with respect to such Fund.
Economies of Scale. Although the Trustees recognized the difficulty of determining economies of scale with precision, the Trustees considered the potential existence of any economies of scale by way of the relatively low advisory fee and unitary fee structure of the Funds and whether those are passed along to a Fund’s shareholders through (i) the enhancement of services provided to the Funds in return for fees paid, including through investments by the investment adviser in its infrastructure, including modernizing the investment adviser’s technology and use of data, increasing expertise and capabilities in key areas (including portfolio and trade operations), and improving business continuity, cybersecurity, due diligence and information security programs, which are designed to provide enhanced services to the Funds and their shareholders; and (ii) pricing a fund to scale and keeping overall expenses down as the fund grows. The Trustees acknowledged that the investment adviser has shared any economies of scale with the Funds by investing in the investment adviser’s infrastructure,
Schwab Equity Index Funds | Annual Report
Schwab Equity Index Funds
as discussed above, over time and that the investment adviser’s internal costs of providing investment management, technology, administrative, legal and compliance services to the Funds continue to increase as a result of regulatory or other developments. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that each Fund obtains reasonable benefits from economies of scale.
In the course of their deliberations, the Trustees may have accorded different weights to various factors and did not identify any particular information or factor that was all
important or controlling. Based on the Trustees’ deliberation and their evaluation of the information described above, the Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, approved the continuation of the Agreements with respect to the Funds and concluded that the compensation under the Agreements with respect to the Funds is fair and reasonable in light of the services provided and the related expenses borne by the investment adviser and its affiliates and such other matters as the Trustees considered to be relevant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment.

To be eligible for inclusion in the index, securities must be fixed rate, non-convertible, U.S. dollar-denominated with at least $300 million or more of outstanding face value and have one or more years remaining to maturity. The index excludes certain types of securities, including tax-exempt state and local government series bonds, structured notes embedded with swaps or other special features, private placements, floating rate securities, inflation-linked bonds and Eurobonds. The index is market capitalization weighted and the securities in the index are updated on the last business day of each month.
Bloomberg US Treasury Bills 1–3 Month Index An index that includes all publicly issued zero-coupon U.S. Treasury Bills that have a remaining maturity of less than 3 months but more than 1 month, are rated investment grade and have $300 million or more of outstanding face value. It excludes zero-coupon STRIPS.
bond A security representing a loan from the investor to the issuer. A bond typically pays interest at a fixed rate (the coupon rate) until a specified date (the maturity date), at which time the issuer returns the money borrowed (principal or face value) to the bondholder. Because of their structure, bonds are sometimes called “fixed-income securities” or “debt securities.”
An individual bond is subject to the credit risk of the issuer. Changes in interest rates can affect a bond’s market value prior to call or maturity. There is no guarantee that a bond’s yield to call or maturity will provide a positive return over the rate of inflation.
bond fund A bond fund is subject to the same credit, interest rate, and inflation risks as bonds. In addition, a bond fund incurs ongoing fees and expenses. A bond fund’s net asset value will fluctuate with the price of the underlying bonds and the portfolio turnover activity; return of principal is not guaranteed.
cap, capitalization See “market cap.”
capital gain, capital loss the difference between the amount paid for an investment and its value at a later time. If the investment has been sold, the capital gain or loss is considered a realized gain or loss. If the investment is still held, the capital gain or loss is considered unrealized appreciation or depreciation.
Dow Jones U.S. Total Stock Market Index An index which includes all U.S. equity issues with readily available prices. The index is a float-adjusted market capitalization weighted index that reflects the shares of securities actually available to investors in the marketplace.
expense ratio The amount that is taken from a mutual fund’s assets each year to cover the fund’s operating expenses. An expense ratio of 0.50% means that a fund’s expenses amount to half of one percent of its average net assets a year.
International Spliced Index An internally calculated index comprised of the Schwab International Index from inception of the Schwab International Index Fund until the close of business on December 20, 2011, the MSCI EAFE Index from December 21, 2011 until the close of business on February 28, 2013, and the MSCI EAFE Index (Net) from March 1, 2013 forward.
market cap, market capitalization The value of a company as determined by the total value of all shares of its stock outstanding.
MSCI EAFE Index (Net) A free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed markets in Europe, Australasia, and the Far East. 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 mutual fund. NAV is calculated by taking the fund’s total assets, subtracting liabilities, and dividing by the number of shares outstanding.
outstanding shares, shares outstanding When speaking of a company or mutual fund, indicates all shares currently held by investors.
price-to-book ratio (P/B) The market price of a company’s stock compared with its “book value.” A mutual fund’s P/B is the weighted average of the P/B of all stocks in the fund’s portfolio.
price-to-earnings ratio (P/E) The market price of a company’s stock compared with earnings over the past year. A mutual fund’s P/E is the weighted average of the P/E of all stocks in the fund’s portfolio.
restricted and illiquid securities Restricted securities are securities that are subject to legal restrictions on their sale. Restricted securities generally can be sold in privately negotiated transactions, pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 (the 1933 Act), or in a registered public offering. Certain restricted securities, such as Section 4(a)(2) commercial paper and Rule 144A securities under the 1933 Act, may be considered to be liquid if they meet the criteria for liquidity established by the Board. Illiquid securities generally are any securities that cannot be disposed of promptly and in the ordinary course of business at approximately the amount at which a fund has valued the instruments. The liquidity of a fund’s investments is monitored under the supervision and direction of the Board. Investments currently not considered liquid include repurchase agreements not maturing within seven days and certain restricted securities.
return on equity (ROE) The average yearly rate of return for each dollar of investors’ money, measured over the past five years.
Russell 1000 Growth Index An index that measures the performance of those Russell 1000 Index companies with higher price-to-book ratios and higher forecasted growth values.
Russell 1000 Index An index that measures the performance of the 1,000 largest companies in the Russell 3000 Index, and represents approximately 92% of the total market capitalization of the Russell 3000 Index. The Russell 3000 Index measures the performance of the largest 3,000 U.S. companies representing approximately 98% of the investable U.S. equity market.
Russell 1000 Value Index An index that measures the performance of the large-cap value segment of the U.S. equity universe. It includes those Russell 1000 Index companies with lower price-to-book ratios and lower expected growth values.

Dear Shareholder,
Geopolitical, economic, and market challenges abounded during the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022. Although the period started off strong, with markets reaching new highs in the final months of 2021, the subsequent 10 months were beset by rapidly rising inflation, sharply climbing interest rates, steeply declining stock prices, and the onset of a war in Europe as Russia invaded Ukraine. Economic growth in the United States and most of the world slowed. By the end of the period, the S&P 500® Index, a bellwether for the overall U.S. stock market, lost nearly 20% of its value from its early-January 2022 peak and returned -14.6% for the reporting period. The MSCI EAFE® Index (Net)*, a broad measure of developed international equity performance, declined by more than 25% between early-January 2022 highs and the end of the reporting period and returned -23.0% for the reporting period.
At Schwab Asset Management, we recognize that today’s turbulent investment environment may be unsettling for many investors. Market declines and volatility can rattle confidence even in well-established investment plans and can cause investors to impulsively react to market movements. At such times, it is helpful to remember that, even in the face of market turmoil and volatility, most investors are best served by maintaining a diversified portfolio that reflects their risk tolerance and long-term goals.
The Schwab Fundamental Index Funds play a role in our goal to provide investors with a diverse variety of investment choices. The funds weight their holdings based on objective financial measures of company size—adjusted sales, retained operating cash flow, and dividends plus buybacks—which can result in a different risk profile than market-cap index funds that use market capitalization to weight the same set of stocks. As such, the Schwab Fundamental Index Funds can complement traditional market-cap index and actively managed strategies, helping to create the potential for more attractive risk-adjusted portfolios.
Thank you for investing with Schwab Asset Management, and for trusting us to help you achieve your financial goals. For more information about the Schwab Fundamental Index Funds, please continue reading this report. In addition, you can find further details about these funds by visiting our website at www.schwabassetmanagement.com. We are also happy to hear from you at 1-877-824-5615.
Sincerely,
“ The Schwab Fundamental Index Funds play a role in our goal to provide investors with a diverse variety of investment choices.”

The Investment Environment
For the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, U.S. and international equity markets lost ground. After several key market indices hit record highs through early January 2022, equity markets around the globe began to slide in reaction to growing headwinds, including accelerating inflation and the increasing likelihood of rising interest rates. In late February 2022, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine drove oil prices to over $100 per barrel for the first time since 2014 and roiled stock markets around the world. Albeit decelerating, COVID-19 continued to weigh on economies worldwide, with highly transmissible variants and subvariants keeping infection rates high in many areas. As the reporting period progressed, economic growth slowed, interest rates rose, and recession fears mounted. The U.S. dollar continued to exhibit strength against a basket of foreign currencies, ending the reporting period significantly stronger and generally reducing the returns of overseas investments in U.S. dollar terms. For the reporting period, the S&P 500® Index, a bellwether for the overall U.S. stock market, returned -14.61%. U.S. small-cap stocks underperformed U.S. large-cap stocks, with the Russell 2000® Index and the Russell 1000® Index returning -18.54% and -16.38%, respectively. Among U.S. large-cap stocks, growth stocks significantly underperformed value stocks, with the Russell 1000® Growth Index and Russell 1000® Value Index returning -24.60% and -7.00%, respectively. Among U.S. industry sectors, only energy generated strong positive returns, driven by soaring oil and gas prices. Traditionally defensive sectors, such as consumer staples, utilities, and health care, tended to outperform the market average, while cyclically sensitive sectors, such as consumer discretionary, real estate, and information technology, lagged. Outside the United States, the MSCI EAFE® Index (Net)*, a broad measure of developed international equity performance, returned -23.00% and the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (Net)* returned -31.03%.
After a recovery from the dramatic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic through the end of 2021, U.S. gross domestic product (GDP) increased at an annualized rate of 6.9% for the fourth quarter. However, amid fading government stimuli, ongoing supply chain disruptions, persisting inflation, a tight labor market, and a widening U.S. trade deficit, GDP decreased at an annualized rate of -1.6% and -0.6% for the first and second quarters of 2022, respectively. GDP growth was positive for the third quarter of 2022, increasing at an annualized rate of 2.9%, driven primarily by energy exports. Consumer spending also grew but at a slower pace than in the second quarter. Inflation remained stubbornly

high, hitting a 40-year high in June due to imbalances in the labor market, supply having bottlenecks, and soaring energy costs, before falling slightly by the end of the reporting period. The unemployment rate remained low, ending the reporting period near pre-pandemic lows.
Outside the United States, global economies also wrestled with the fallout of the COVID-19 pandemic, high energy costs, rising inflation, and the war in Ukraine. After spiking in early March 2022 as sanctions were imposed on Russian imports—and again in June on supply-and-demand imbalances—oil prices generally fell through the rest of the reporting period, ending at just over $86 per barrel. The eurozone, heavily impacted by the war in Ukraine and associated commodity price spikes, managed to eke out small gains in GDP for the fourth quarter of 2021 and first and second quarters of 2022, as COVID-19 restrictions eased and tourism increased in response to pent-up demand. The United Kingdom also posted small gains in GDP growth for the fourth quarter of 2021 and first and second quarters of 2022. Among emerging markets, China’s GDP growth rate remained positive but slowed notably as China dealt with numerous headwinds including the political landscape, an emphasis on domestic consumption over globalization, lockdowns and quarantines, and a severe property downturn as a result of stalled demand, a decline in financing for property development, halted construction on in progress projects, and homeowners pausing mortgage payments on incomplete builds. India’s GDP growth also remained positive over the reporting period, particularly in the second quarter of 2022, on rising consumer demand and a rapid decline in COVID-19 cases.
Monetary policy around the world varied. In the United States, after maintaining the federal funds rate in a range of 0.00% to 0.25% through mid-March 2022, as inflation continued to rise and indicators of economic activity and employment continued to strengthen, the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) shifted its stance. After issuing successively stronger signals that interest rates could begin to rise sooner in 2022 than previously anticipated, the Fed raised the federal funds rate five times during the reporting period—by 0.25% in mid-March, 0.50% in early May, 0.75% in mid-June, 0.75% in late July, and 0.75% in late September—in its ongoing efforts to achieve a return to price stability. The federal funds rate ended the reporting period in a range of 3.00% to 3.25%. In June, the Fed also began to reduce the $9 trillion in assets it held on its balance sheet, vowing to be even more aggressive than during its last round of quantitative tightening between 2017 and 2019. Outside the United States, central banks were similarly responsive. After holding its policy rate unchanged since March 2015, at 0.00%, the European Central Bank raised its interest rate three times over the reporting period in an effort to dampen demand and control inflation, which in October 2022 rose into double-digits. The Bank of England raised its key official bank rate seven times during the reporting period, bringing borrowing costs to a 13-year high as the Bank of England wrestles with soaring inflation. In contrast, the Bank of Japan continued to uphold its short-term interest rate target of -0.1%, unchanged since 2016, but raised its inflation forecast at its October 2022 meeting. Monetary policies in emerging markets were mixed. Central banks in India, Indonesia, Brazil, Mexico, and Pakistan raised their rates multiple times over the reporting period to counteract the impacts of inflation. In contrast, China cut its interest rate three times over the reporting period, in part as a result of a resurgence of COVID-19 cases and a lingering property downturn. Russia raised its benchmark policy rate to 20% in late February 2022 amid the broadening fallout of Western sanctions in retaliation against Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, but subsequently reduced it several times.

Schwab Fundamental US Small Company Index Fund as of October 31, 2022
The Schwab Fundamental US Small Company Index Fund (the fund) seeks investment results that correspond generally (before fees and expenses) to the total return of the Russell RAFITM US Small Company Index (the index). The index measures the performance of the small company size segment by fundamental overall company scores, which are created using as the universe the U.S. companies in the FTSE Global Total Cap Index. To pursue its investment objective, the fund uses a replication investment approach and generally gives the same weight to a given stock as the index does. For more information concerning the fund’s investment objective, strategies, and risks, please see the fund’s prospectus.
Market Highlights. For the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, U.S. and international equity markets lost ground. After several key market indices hit record highs through early January 2022, equity markets around the globe began to slide in reaction to growing headwinds, including accelerating inflation and the increasing likelihood of rising interest rates. In late February 2022, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine drove oil prices to over $100 per barrel for the first time since 2014 and roiled stock markets around the world. Albeit decelerating, COVID-19 continued to weigh on economies worldwide, with highly transmissible variants and subvariants keeping infection rates high in many areas. As the reporting period progressed, economic growth slowed, interest rates rose, and recession fears mounted. U.S. small-cap stocks underperformed U.S. large-cap stocks. Among U.S. large-cap stocks, growth stocks significantly underperformed value stocks.
Performance. The fund generally tracked the index for the reporting period. The fund returned -11.37% for the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, while the index returned -11.18%. Differences between the return of the fund and the return of the index may be attributable to, among other things, the operational and transactional costs incurred by the fund and not the index.
Contributors and Detractors. The consumer discretionary sector detracted the most from the total return of the fund. Consumer discretionary stocks represented an average weight of approximately 14% of the fund’s investments and returned approximately -21% for the reporting period.

The fund’s holdings of Six Flags Entertainment Corp. represented an average weight of less than 1% of the fund’s investments and returned approximately -48% for the reporting period.
The information technology sector also detracted from the total return of the fund, representing an average weight of approximately 11% of the fund’s investments and returning approximately -18% for the reporting period.
The energy sector contributed the most to the total return of the fund. Energy stocks represented an average weight of approximately 6% of the fund’s investments and returned approximately 44% for the reporting period.

The fund’s Class A holdings of Arch Resources, Inc. represented an average weight of less than 1% of the fund’s investments and returned approximately 83% for the reporting period.
The utilities sector also contributed to the total return of the fund, representing an average weight of approximately 4% of the fund’s investments and returning approximately 6% for the reporting period.

Among U.S. large-cap stocks, growth stocks significantly underperformed value stocks. The U.S. dollar continued to exhibit strength against a basket of foreign currencies, ending the reporting period significantly stronger and generally reducing the returns of overseas investments in U.S. dollar terms.
Performance. The fund generally tracked the index for the reporting period. The fund returned -17.25% for the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, while the index returned -16.82%1. Timing differences in foreign exchange calculations detracted slightly from the fund’s relative performance and fair valuation of the fund’s holdings contributed slightly to the fund’s relative performance.2 Differences between the return of the fund and the return of the index may also be attributable to, among other things, the operational and transactional costs incurred by the fund and not the index.
Contributors and Detractors. Stocks from Japan detracted the most from the total return of the fund. Japanese stocks represented an average weight of approximately 25% of the fund’s investments and returned approximately -19% in U.S. dollar term for the reporting period. One example from this market is Toyota Motor Corp., which manufactures, sells, leases, and repairs passenger cars, trucks, buses, and their related parts worldwide. The fund’s holdings of Toyota Motor Corp. represented an average weight of approximately 2% of the fund’s investments and returned approximately -19% in U.S. dollar terms for the reporting period.
Stocks from South Korea also detracted from the total return of the fund, representing an average weight of approximately 6% of the fund’s investments and returning approximately -30% for the reporting period.
Stocks from Singapore contributed the most, though slightly, to the total return of the fund. Stocks from Singapore represented an average weight of less than 1% of the fund’s investments and returned approximately 3% in U.S. dollar terms for the reporting period. One example from this market is DBS Group Holdings Ltd., which provides a variety of financial services. The fund’s holdings of DBS Group Holdings Ltd. represented an average weight of less than 1% of the fund’s investments and returned approximately 8% in U.S. dollar terms for the reporting period.
Stocks from Israel also contributed slightly to the total return of the fund, representing an average weight of less than 1% of the fund’s investments and returning approximately 6% in U.S. dollar terms for the reporting period.

| 1 | The total return cited for the index reflects reinvested dividends net of withholding taxes but reflects no deductions for expenses or other taxes. |
| 2 | Typically, the securities in the index are valued using foreign exchange rates obtained at the close of the London foreign currency exchange (11:00 AM EST). Securities in the fund, however, are valued using foreign exchange rates obtained at the close of the New York foreign currency exchange (4:00 PM EST). This difference in closing times can result in different foreign currency exchange rates between the two exchanges, and thus different foreign currency exchange rates used in the valuation of the index’s and fund’s securities. |

While no additional markets contributed to the total return of the fund, the stock from Chile was the smallest detractor from the total return of the fund, representing an average weight of less than 1% of the fund’s investments and returning approximately -16% in U.S. dollar terms for the reporting period.

After several key market indices hit record highs through early January 2022, equity markets around the globe began to slide in reaction to growing headwinds, including accelerating inflation and the increasing likelihood of rising interest rates. In late February 2022, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine drove oil prices to over $100 per barrel for the first time since 2014 and roiled stock markets around the world. Albeit decelerating, COVID-19 continued to weigh on economies worldwide, with highly transmissible variants and subvariants keeping infection rates high in many areas. As the reporting period progressed, economic growth slowed, interest rates rose, and recession fears mounted. U.S. small-cap stocks underperformed U.S. large-cap stocks. Among U.S. large-cap stocks, growth stocks significantly underperformed value stocks. The U.S. dollar continued to exhibit strength against a basket of foreign currencies, ending the reporting period significantly stronger and generally reducing the returns of overseas investments in U.S. dollar terms.
Performance. The fund generally tracked the index for the reporting period. The fund returned -24.86% for the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, while the index returned -25.58%1. Timing differences in foreign exchange calculations and fair valuation of the fund’s holdings contributed to the fund’s relative performance.2
Contributors and Detractors. Stocks from Brazil contributed the most to the total return of the fund. Brazilian stocks represented an average weight of approximately 11% of the fund’s investments and returned approximately 37% in U.S. dollar terms for the reporting period. One example from this market is Petroleo Brasileiro S.A., which explores for and produces oil and natural gas. The fund’s holdings of Petroleo Brasileiro S.A. represented an average weight of approximately 2% of the fund’s investments and returned approximately 94% in U.S. dollar terms for the reporting period.
Stocks form Turkey also contributed to the total return of the fund, representing an average weight of approximately 2% of the fund’s investments and returning approximately 48% in U.S. dollar terms for the reporting period.
Stocks from China detracted the most from the total return of the fund. Chinese stocks represented an average weight of approximately 29% of the fund’s investments and returned approximately -30% in U.S. dollar terms for the reporting period. One example from this market is Alibaba Group Holding Ltd., which provides online sales services. The fund’s holdings of Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. represented an average weight of approximately 1% of the fund’s investments and returned approximately -63% in U.S. dollar terms for the reporting period.
Stocks from Russia also detracted from the total return of the fund, representing an average weight of approximately 4% of the fund’s investments and returning approximately -96% in U.S. dollar terms for the reporting period.

| 1 | The total return cited for the index reflects reinvested dividends net of withholding taxes but reflects no deductions for expenses or other taxes. |
| 2 | Typically, the securities in the index are valued using foreign exchange rates obtained at the close of the London foreign currency exchange (11:00 AM EST). Securities in the fund, however, are valued using foreign exchange rates obtained at the close of the New York foreign currency exchange (4:00 PM EST). This difference in closing times can result in different foreign currency exchange rates between the two exchanges, and thus different foreign currency exchange rates used in the valuation of the index’s and fund’s securities. |

Fund Expenses (Unaudited)
Examples for a $1,000 Investment
As a fund shareholder, you may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees.
The expense examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing cost (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare this cost with the ongoing cost of investing in other mutual funds. These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested for six months beginning May 1, 2022 and held through October 31, 2022.
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. 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.

Each fund in this report offers one share class. Shares are bought and sold at closing net asset value per share (NAV), which is the price for all outstanding shares of a fund. Each share has a par value of 1/1,000 of a cent, and the funds’ Board of Trustees (the Board) may authorize the issuance of as many shares as necessary.
Each fund maintains its own account for purposes of holding assets and accounting, and is considered a separate entity for tax purposes. Within its account, each fund may also keep certain assets in segregated accounts, as required by securities law.
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the funds use in their preparation of financial statements. The funds follow the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) 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 may invest in certain mutual funds and exchange-traded funds (ETFs), which are referred to as "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) and are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
(a) Security Valuation:
Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Board has designated authority to a Valuation Designee, the funds’ investment adviser, to make fair valuation determinations under adopted procedures, subject to Board oversight. The investment adviser has formed a Pricing Committee to administer the pricing and valuation of portfolio securities and other assets and liabilities and to ensure that prices used for internal purposes or provided by third parties reasonably reflect fair value. The Valuation Designee may utilize independent pricing services, quotations from securities and financial instrument dealers and other market sources to determine fair value.

Financial Notes (continued)
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
Securities held in the funds’ portfolio are valued every business day. The following valuation policies and procedures are used by the Valuation Designee 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 the mean of 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.
• Foreign equity security fair valuation: The Valuation Designee has adopted procedures to fair value foreign equity securities that are traded in markets that close prior to the valuation of a fund’s holdings. By fair valuing securities whose prices may have been affected by events occurring after the close of trading, the Valuation Designee seeks to establish prices that investors might expect to realize upon the current sales of these securities. This methodology is designed to deter “arbitrage” market timers, who seek to exploit delays between the change in the value of a fund’s portfolio holdings and the NAV of a fund’s shares and seeks to help ensure that the prices at which a fund’s shares are purchased and redeemed are fair and do not result in dilution of shareholder interest or other harm to shareholders. When fair value pricing is used at the open or close of a reporting period, it may cause a temporary divergence between the return of a fund and that of its comparative index or benchmark.
• Futures contracts: Futures contracts are valued at their settlement prices as of the close of their exchanges.
• Mutual funds: Mutual funds are valued at their respective NAVs.
• Cash management sweep time deposits: Balances held in cash management sweep time deposits were accounted for on a cost basis, which approximates fair value.
• Securities for which no quoted value is available: The Valuation Designee has adopted procedures to fair value a fund’s securities when market prices are not “readily available” or are unreliable. For example, a security may be fair valued 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. Fair value determinations are made in good faith in accordance with adopted valuation procedures. The Valuation Designee considers a number of factors, including unobservable market inputs, when arriving at fair value. The Valuation Designee may employ methods 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. 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.
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 methods 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 it is determined 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 the Valuation Designee’s 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 investments — 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, mutual funds, 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 underlying securities 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. In addition, international securities whose markets close hours before the valuation of a fund’s holdings may require fair valuations due to significant movement in the U.S. markets occurring after the daily close of foreign markets. The Valuation Designee has approved a vendor that calculates fair valuations of international equity securities based on a number of factors that appear to correlate to the movements in the U.S. markets.
• Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Valuation Designee’s 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 readily available for these securities, one or more valuation methods are used for which sufficient and reliable data is available. The inputs used 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 in the absence of market information. Assumptions used due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting fair value and therefore the funds’ results of operations.
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The levels associated with valuing the funds’ investments as of October 31, 2022 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 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 value may change daily.
Passive Foreign Investment Companies: Certain funds may own shares in certain foreign corporations that meet the Internal Revenue Code definition of a Passive Foreign Investment Company (PFIC). The funds may elect for tax purposes to mark-to-market annually the shares of each PFIC lot held and would be required to distribute as ordinary income to shareholders any such marked-to-market gains (as well as any gains realized on sale).
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 pursuant to Rule 2a-7 under 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 or the lending agent to terminate any loan at any given time and the securities must be returned within the earlier of the standard trade settlement period or the specified time period under the relevant securities lending agreement. 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. The aggregate fair 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. Securities lending fees paid to the unaffiliated lending agents start at 9% of gross lending revenue, with subsequent breakpoints to a low of 5%. In this context, the gross lending revenue equals the income received from the investment of cash collateral and fees paid by borrowers less any rebates paid to the borrowers. Any expenses charged by the cash collateral fund are in addition to these fees. All remaining revenue is retained by the fund, as applicable. No portion of lending revenue is paid to or retained by the investment adviser or any of its affiliates.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
As of October 31, 2022, Schwab Fundamental US Large Company Index Fund, Schwab Fundamental US Small Company Index Fund, Schwab Fundamental International Large Company Index Fund and Schwab Fundamental International Small Company Index Fund had securities on loan, all of which were classified as common stocks. The value of the securities on loan and the related collateral as of October 31, 2022, if any, are disclosed in each fund’s Portfolio Holdings. The value of the securities on loan and the investment of cash collateral are disclosed in each fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Cash Management Transactions: Effective May 23, 2022, Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. (BBH) was replaced by Citibank N.A. as custodian of the funds, except for the Schwab Fundamental US Large Company Index Fund and Schwab Fundamental US Small Company Index Fund. The funds no longer subscribe to the BBH Cash Management Service Sweep (CMS Sweep). The BBH CMS Sweep was an investment product that automatically swept the funds’ cash balances into overnight offshore time deposits with either the BBH Grand Cayman branch or a branch of a pre-approved commercial bank. This fully automated program allowed the funds to earn interest on cash balances. Excess cash invested with deposit institutions domiciled outside of the U.S., as with any offshore deposit, was subject to sovereign actions in the jurisdiction of the deposit institution including, but not limited to, freeze, seizure or diminution. The funds assumed the risk associated with the repayment of principal and payment of interest on such instruments by the institution with which the deposit is ultimately placed. The funds terminated the CMS Sweep program and cash was returned to the funds prior to terminating services with BBH.
Cash Investments: The funds may invest a portion of their assets in cash. Cash includes cash bank balances in an interest-bearing demand deposit account with maturity on demand by the funds, except for the Schwab Fundamental US Large Company Index Fund and Schwab Fundamental US Small Company Index Fund.
Central Securities Depositories Regulation: Effective February 1, 2022, the Central Securities Depositories Regulation (CSDR) introduced measures for the authorization and supervision of European Union Central Security Depositories and created a common set of prudential, organizational, and conduct of business standards at a European level. CSDR is designed to support securities settlement and operational aspects of securities settlement, including the provision of shorter settlement periods; mandatory buy-ins; and cash penalties, to prevent and address settlement fails. CSDR measures are aimed to prevent settlement fails by ensuring that all transaction details are provided to facilitate settlement, as well as further incentivizing timely settlement by imposing cash penalty fines and buy-ins. The Schwab Fundamental International Large Company Index Fund, Schwab Fundamental International Small Company Index Fund and Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets Large Company Index Fund may be subject to pay cash penalties and may also receive cash penalties with certain counterparties in instances where there are settlement fails. These cash penalties are included in the net realized gains (losses) on sales of securities in each fund’s Statement of Operations, if any.
(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 and unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses are reported in foreign currency transactions or translations in the Statement of Operations. The funds do not isolate the portion of the fluctuations on investments resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rates from the fluctuations in market prices of investments held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.
Gains realized by the funds on the sale of securities in certain foreign countries may be subject to non-U.S. taxes. In those instances, the funds record a liability based on unrealized appreciation 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.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
(d) Investment Income:
Interest income is recorded as it accrues. Dividends, in the form of cash or non-cash income such as in the form of additional securities, 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 date the ex-dividend is confirmed. 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.
The Schwab Fundamental International Large Company Index Fund and Schwab Fundamental International Small Company Index Fund filed claims to recover taxes previously withheld in certain European Union countries on the basis that those countries had purportedly violated certain provisions in the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union. These filings are subject to various administrative and judicial proceedings within these countries, and all professional fees associated with these filings have been paid by the investment adviser. The professional fees are non-contingent and non-routine fees which are subject to repayment to the investment adviser (see financial note 4 for additional information).
(e) Expenses:
Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Investment Advisory Agreement (Advisory Agreement) between the investment adviser and the trust, the investment adviser will pay the operating expenses of each fund, excluding taxes, any brokerage expenses, and extraordinary or non-routine expenses. Taxes, any brokerage expenses and extraordinary or non-routine expenses that are specific to a fund are charged directly to the fund. The Advisory Agreement excludes paying acquired fund fees and expenses, which are indirect expenses incurred by a fund through its investments in underlying funds.
(f) Distributions to Shareholders:
The funds make distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, once a year. To receive distributions, you must be a registered shareholder on the record date. Distributions are paid to shareholders on the payable date.
(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 under subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended. 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.
(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 accrued as of October 31, 2022, if any, are reflected in each fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
(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) Regulatory Update:
In October 2022, the SEC adopted rule and form amendments to require mutual funds and ETFs to transmit concise and visually engaging streamlined annual and semiannual reports to shareholders that highlight key information deemed important for retail investors to assess and monitor their fund investments. Other information, including financial statements, will no longer appear in funds’ streamlined shareholder reports but must be available online, delivered free of charge upon request, and filed on a semiannual basis on Form N-CSR. The rule and form amendments will be effective on January 24, 2023 and the compliance date will be July 24, 2024. At this time, management is evaluating the impact of these rule and form amendment changes on the content of the current shareholder report and the newly created annual and semiannual streamlined shareholder reports.
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. Financial markets rise and fall in response to a variety of factors, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably. Markets may be impacted by economic, political, regulatory and other conditions, including economic sanctions and other government actions. In addition, the occurrence of global events, such as war, terrorism, environmental disasters, natural disasters and epidemics, may also negatively affect the financial markets. As with any investment whose performance is tied to these markets, the value of an investment in a fund will fluctuate, which means that an investor could lose money over short or long periods.
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.
Investment Style Risk. The funds are index funds. Therefore, each fund follows the securities included in its respective index during upturns as well as downturns. Because of its indexing strategy, a fund does not take steps to reduce market exposure or to lessen the effects of a declining market. In addition, because of a fund’s expenses, a fund’s performance may be below that of the index. Errors relating to the index may occur from time to time and may not be identified by the index provider for a period of time. In addition, market disruptions could cause delays in an index’s rebalancing schedule. Such errors and/or market disruptions may result in losses for a fund.
Market Capitalization Risk. Securities issued by companies of different market capitalizations tend to go in and out of favor based on market and economic conditions. During a period when securities of a particular market capitalization fall behind other types of investments, a fund’s performance could be impacted.
Large-Cap Company Risk. Large-cap companies are generally more mature and the securities issued by these companies may not be able to reach the same levels of growth as the securities issued by small- or mid-cap companies.
Small-Cap Company Risk. Securities issued by small-cap companies may be riskier than those issued by larger companies, and their prices may move sharply, especially during market upturns and downturns.
Tracking Error Risk. As index funds, each fund seeks to track the performance of its respective 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.
Concentration Risk. To the extent that a fund’s or its respective index’s portfolio is concentrated in the securities of issuers in a particular market, industry, group of industries, sector, country or asset class, the fund may be adversely affected by the performance of those securities, may be subject to increased price volatility and may be more vulnerable to adverse economic, market, political or regulatory occurrences affecting that market, industry, group of industries, sector, country or asset class.

3. Risk Factors (continued):
Foreign Investment Risk. A fund’s investments in securities of foreign issuers involve certain risks that may be 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); 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. There is a risk that investments in securities denominated in, and/or receiving revenues in, foreign currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar. Foreign securities may also include American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs) and European Depositary Receipts (EDRs), which may be less liquid than the underlying shares in their primary trading market, and GDRs, in particular, many of which are issued by companies in emerging markets, may be more volatile. Foreign securities may also include investments in variable interest entities (VIEs) structures, which are created by China-based operating companies in jurisdictions outside of China to obtain indirect financing due to Chinese regulations that prohibit non-Chinese ownership of those companies. To the extent a fund’s investments in a single country or a limited number of countries represent a large percentage of the fund’s assets, the fund’s performance may be adversely affected by the economic, political, regulatory and social conditions in those countries, and the fund’s price may be more volatile than the price of a fund that is geographically diversified.
Emerging Markets Risk. Emerging market countries may be more likely to experience political turmoil or rapid changes in market or economic conditions than more developed countries. Emerging market countries often have less uniformity in accounting, auditing, financial reporting and recordkeeping 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 developed countries. As a result, there may be an increased risk of illiquidity and 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.
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 derivatives that are 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.
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. A fund’s use of derivatives is also subject to lack of availability risk, credit risk, leverage 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 gains. A fund’s use of derivatives could reduce the fund’s performance, increase the fund’s volatility, and could cause the fund to lose more than the initial amount invested.
Liquidity Risk. A fund may be unable to sell certain securities, such as illiquid securities, readily at a favorable time or price, or the fund may have to sell them at a loss.
Sampling Index Tracking Risk. To the extent a fund uses a sampling method, the fund may not fully replicate its respective index and may hold securities not included in the index. As a result, the fund is subject to the risk that the investment adviser’s investment management strategy, the implementation of which is subject to a number of constraints, may not produce the intended results. If a fund utilizes a sampling approach, it may not track the return of the index as well as it would if the fund purchased all of the securities in the index.
Securities Lending Risk. Securities lending involves the risk of loss of rights in, or delay in recovery of, the loaned securities if the borrower fails to return the security loaned or becomes insolvent.

3. Risk Factors (continued):
Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) Risk. Certain funds may purchase shares of ETFs to gain exposure to a particular portion of the market while awaiting an opportunity to purchase securities directly. When a fund invests in an ETF, in addition to directly bearing the expenses associated with its own operations, it will bear a proportionate share of the ETF’s expenses. Therefore, it may be more costly to own an ETF than to own the underlying securities directly. In addition, while the risks of owning shares of an ETF generally reflect the risks of owning the underlying securities the ETF holds, lack of liquidity in the market for an ETF’s shares can result in its value being more volatile than the underlying portfolio securities.
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 (continued):
No other amounts for additional tax reclaims are reflected in the financial statements due to the uncertainty surrounding the ultimate resolution of proceedings, the likelihood of receipt of these claims, and the potential timing of payment.
Interfund Borrowing and Lending
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. 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. The interfund lending facility is subject to the oversight and periodic review by the Board. The funds had no interfund borrowing or lending activity during the period.
Interfund Transactions
The funds may engage in direct transactions with certain other funds in the Fund Complex in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board pursuant to Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act. When one fund is seeking to sell a security that another is seeking to buy, an interfund transaction can allow both funds to benefit by reducing transaction costs. This practice is limited to funds that share the same investment adviser, trustees and/or officers. For the period ended October 31, 2022, each fund’s purchases and sales of securities with other funds in the Fund Complex as well as any realized gains (losses) were as follows:

5. Board of Trustees:
The Board may include people who are officers and/or directors of the investment adviser or its affiliates. Federal securities law limits the percentage of such “interested persons” who may serve on a trust’s board, and the trust was in compliance with these limitations throughout the report period. The funds do not pay any interested or non-interested (independent trustees) trustees. The independent trustees are paid by the investment adviser. For information regarding the trustees, please refer to the Trustees and Officers table at the end of this report.
6. Borrowing from Banks:
During the period, the funds were participants with other funds in the Fund Complex in a joint, syndicated, committed $850 million line of credit (the Syndicated Credit Facility), which matured on September 29, 2022. On September 29, 2022, the Syndicated Credit Facility was amended to run for a new 364 day period with the line of credit amount increasing to $1 billion, maturing on September 28, 2023. Under the terms of the Syndicated Credit Facility, in addition to the investment adviser paying the interest charged on any borrowings by a fund, the investment adviser paid a commitment fee of 0.15% per annum on the funds’ proportionate share of the unused portion of the Syndicated Credit Facility.
During the period, the funds were participants with other funds in the Fund Complex in a joint, unsecured, uncommitted $400 million line of credit (the Uncommitted Credit Facility), with State Street and Trust Company, which matured on September 29, 2022. On September 29, 2022, the Uncommitted Credit Facility was amended to run for a new 364 day period with the line of credit amount remaining unchanged, maturing on September 28, 2023. Under the terms of the Uncommitted Credit Facility, the investment adviser pays interest on the amount a fund borrows. There were no borrowings from either line of credit during the period.
The funds also have access to custodian overdraft facilities. A fund may have utilized the overdraft facility and incurred an interest expense, which is paid by the investment adviser. The interest expense is determined based on a negotiated rate above the current Federal Funds Rate.

For the period ended October 31, 2022, where applicable, the funds realized net capital gains or losses resulting from in-kind redemptions. 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 gains or losses on sales of in-kind redemptions for the period ended October 31, 2022, are disclosed in the funds’ Statements of Operations, if any.

The primary differences between book basis and tax basis unrealized appreciation or unrealized depreciation of investments are the tax deferral of losses on wash sales, the realization for tax purposes of unrealized appreciation or depreciation on futures contracts, the realization for tax purposes of unrealized appreciation on investments in PFICs and partnership investments. The tax cost of the funds’ investments, disclosed above, have been adjusted from their book amounts to reflect these unrealized appreciation or depreciation differences, as applicable.
Capital loss carryforwards have no expiration and may be used to offset future realized capital gains for federal income tax purposes. As of October 31, 2022, the funds had capital loss carryforwards available as follows:

Distributions paid to shareholders are based on net investment income and net realized gains determined on a tax basis, which may differ from net investment income and net realized gains for financial reporting purposes. These differences reflect the differing character of certain income items and net realized gains and losses for financial statement and tax purposes, and may result in reclassification among certain capital accounts on the financial statements. The funds may also designate a portion of the amount paid to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for tax purposes.
Permanent book and tax basis differences may result in reclassifications between components of net assets as required. The adjustments will have no impact on net assets or the results of operations.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Trustees of Schwab Capital Trust and Shareholders of Schwab Fundamental US Large Company Index Fund, Schwab Fundamental US Small Company Index Fund, Schwab Fundamental International Large Company Index Fund, Schwab Fundamental International Small Company Index Fund, and Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets Large Company Index Fund:
Opinion on the Financial Statements and Financial Highlights
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio holdings, of Schwab Fundamental US Large Company Index Fund, Schwab Fundamental US Small Company Index Fund, Schwab Fundamental International Large Company Index Fund, Schwab Fundamental International Small Company Index Fund, and Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets Large Company Index Fund (the “Funds”), five of the funds constituting Schwab Capital Trust, as of October 31, 2022, the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the three years in the period then ended, and the related notes. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of October 31, 2022, and the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the three years in the period then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The financial highlights for each of the two years in the period ended October 31, 2019 were audited by other auditors, whose report, dated December 16, 2019, expressed an unqualified opinion on such financial highlights.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Funds are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2022, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Liquidity Risk Management Program (unaudited)
The funds have adopted and implemented a liquidity risk management program (the “program”) as required by Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The funds’ Board of Trustees (the “Board”) has designated the funds’ investment adviser, Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc., dba Schwab Asset Management, as the administrator of the program. Personnel of the investment adviser or its affiliates conduct the day-to-day operation of the program.
Under the program, the investment adviser manages a fund’s liquidity risk, which is the risk that the fund could not meet shareholder redemption requests without significant dilution of remaining shareholders’ interests in the fund. The program is reasonably designed to assess and manage a fund’s liquidity risk, taking into consideration the fund’s investment strategy and the liquidity of its portfolio investments during normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed conditions; its historical redemption history and shareholder concentrations; and its cash holdings and access to other funding sources, including the custodian overdraft facility and lines of credit. The investment adviser’s process of determining the degree of liquidity of each fund’s investments is supported by third-party liquidity assessment vendors.
The funds’ Board reviewed a report at its meeting held on September 19, 2022 prepared by the investment adviser regarding the operation and effectiveness of the program for the period June 1, 2021, through May 31, 2022, which included individual fund liquidity risk metrics. No significant liquidity events impacting any of the funds were noted in the report. In addition, the investment adviser provided its assessment that the program had been operating effectively in managing each fund’s liquidity risk.

Investment Advisory Agreement Approval
The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), requires that the continuation of a fund’s investment advisory agreement must be specifically approved (1) by the vote of the trustees or by a vote of the shareholders of the fund, and (2) by the vote of a majority of the trustees who are not parties to the investment advisory agreement or “interested persons” of any party (the Independent Trustees), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. In connection with such approvals, the fund’s trustees must request and evaluate, and the investment adviser is required to furnish, such information as may be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the investment advisory agreement.
The Board of Trustees (the Board or the Trustees, as appropriate) calls and holds one or more meetings each year that are dedicated, in whole or in part, to considering whether to renew the investment advisory and administration agreement (the Agreement) between Schwab Capital Trust (the Trust) and Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (dba Schwab Asset Management) (the investment adviser) with respect to the existing funds in the Trust, including Schwab Fundamental US Large Company Index Fund, Schwab Fundamental US Small Company Index Fund, Schwab Fundamental International Large Company Index Fund, Schwab Fundamental International Small Company Index Fund and Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets Large Company Index Fund (each, a Fund and collectively, the Funds), and to review certain other agreements pursuant to which the investment adviser provides investment advisory services to certain other registered investment companies. In preparation for the meeting(s), the Board requests and reviews a wide variety of materials provided by the investment adviser, including information about the investment adviser’s affiliates, personnel, business goals and priorities, profitability, third-party oversight, corporate structure and operations. As part of the renewal process, the Independent Trustees’ legal counsel, on behalf of the Independent Trustees, sends an information request letter to the investment adviser seeking certain relevant information. The responses by the investment adviser are provided to the Trustees in the Board materials for their review prior to their meeting, and the Trustees are provided with the opportunity to request any additional materials. The Board also receives data provided by an independent provider of investment company data. 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 the Funds’ operations and performance, legal and compliance matters, risk management, portfolio turnover, and sales and marketing activity. In considering the renewal, the Independent Trustees receive advice from Independent Trustees’ legal counsel, including a memorandum regarding the responsibilities of trustees for the
approval of investment advisory agreements. In addition, the Independent Trustees participate in question and answer sessions with representatives of the investment adviser and meet in executive session outside the presence of Fund management.
The Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, considered information specifically relating to the continuance of the Agreement with respect to the Funds at meetings held on May 16, 2022 and June 8, 2022, and approved the renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds for an additional one-year term at the meeting on June 8, 2022 called for the purpose of voting on such approval.
The Board’s approval of the continuance of the Agreement with respect to the Funds was based on consideration and evaluation of a variety of specific factors discussed at these meetings and at prior meetings, including:
| 1. | the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to each Fund under the Agreement, including the resources of the investment adviser and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds; |
| 2. | each Fund’s investment performance and how it compared to that of certain other comparable mutual funds and benchmark data; |
| 3. | each Fund’s expenses and how those expenses compared to those of certain other similar mutual funds; |
| 4. | the profitability of the investment adviser and its affiliates, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (Schwab), with respect to each Fund, including both direct and indirect benefits accruing to the investment adviser and its affiliates; and |
| 5. | the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as each 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 the investment adviser to the Funds and the resources of the investment adviser and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds. In this regard, the Trustees evaluated, among other things, the investment adviser’s experience, track record, compliance program, resources dedicated to hiring and retaining skilled personnel and specialized talent, and information security resources. The Trustees also considered information provided by the investment adviser relating to services and support provided with respect to each Fund’s portfolio management team, portfolio strategy, and internal investment guidelines, as well as trading infrastructure, liquidity management, product design and analysis, shareholder communications, securities valuation, fund accounting and custody, and vendor and risk

oversight. The Trustees also considered investments the investment adviser has made in its infrastructure, including modernizing the investment adviser’s technology and use of data, increasing expertise in key areas (including portfolio management and trade operations), and improving business continuity, cybersecurity, due diligence, risk management processes, and information security programs, which are designed to provide enhanced services to the Funds and their shareholders. The Trustees considered Schwab’s overall financial condition and its reputation as a full service brokerage firm, as well as the wide range of products, services and account features that benefit Fund shareholders who are 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 the investment adviser to the Funds and the resources of the investment adviser 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 such Fund. Specifically, the Trustees considered each Fund’s performance relative to a peer category of other mutual funds and applicable indices/benchmarks, in light of total return and market trends, as well as in consideration of each Fund’s investment style and strategy attributes and disclosures. As part of this review, the Trustees considered the composition of the peer category, selection criteria and the reputation of the independent provider of investment company data who prepared the peer category analysis. In evaluating the performance of each Fund, the Trustees considered the risk profile for such Fund and such Fund’s demonstrated performance in tracking its benchmark index. The Trustees further considered the level of Fund performance in the context of their review of Fund expenses and the investment adviser’s profitability discussed below and also noted that the Board and a designated committee of the Board review performance throughout the year. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the performance of each Fund supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to such Fund.
Fund Expenses. With respect to each Fund’s expenses, the Trustees considered the rate of compensation called for by the Agreement, and each Fund’s operating expense ratio, in each case, in comparison to those of other similar mutual funds, such peer groups and comparisons having been selected and calculated by an independent provider of investment company data. The investment adviser reported to the Board, and the Board took into account, the risk assumed by the investment adviser in the development of the Funds and provision of services as well as the competitive marketplace for financial products. The Trustees also considered fees charged by the investment adviser to ETFs, other mutual funds and to other types of accounts, but, with respect to such other types of accounts, accorded less weight to such comparisons due to
the different legal, regulatory, compliance and operating features of mutual funds as compared to these other types of accounts, and any differences in the nature and scope of the services the investment adviser provides to these other accounts, as well as differences in the market for these types of accounts. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the expenses of each Fund are reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to such Fund.
Profitability. The Trustees considered the compensation flowing to the investment adviser and its affiliates, directly or indirectly and reviewed profitability on a pre-tax basis, without regard to distribution expenses. In this connection, the Trustees reviewed management’s profitability analyses. The Trustees also reviewed profitability of the investment adviser relating to the Schwab fund complex as a whole, noting the benefits to Fund shareholders of being part of the Schwab fund complex, including the allocations of certain fixed costs across the Funds and other funds in the complex. The Trustees also considered any other benefits derived by the investment adviser from its relationship with the Funds, such as whether, by virtue of its management of the Funds, the investment adviser obtains investment information or other research resources that aid it in providing advisory services to other clients. The Trustees considered whether the 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 the investment adviser and its affiliates. The Trustees noted that the investment adviser continues to invest substantial sums in its business in order to provide enhanced research capabilities, services and systems to benefit the Funds. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the profitability of the investment adviser with respect to each Fund is reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to such Fund.
Economies of Scale. Although the Trustees recognized the difficulty of determining economies of scale with precision, the Trustees considered the potential existence of any economies of scale by way of the relatively low advisory fee and unitary fee structure of the Funds and whether those are passed along to a Fund’s shareholders through (i) the enhancement of services provided to the Funds in return for fees paid, including through investments by the investment adviser in its infrastructure, including modernizing the investment adviser’s technology and use of data, increasing expertise and capabilities in key areas (including portfolio and trade operations), and improving business continuity, cybersecurity, due diligence and information security programs, which are designed to provide enhanced services to the Funds and their shareholders; and (ii) pricing a fund to scale and keeping overall expenses down as the fund grows. The Trustees acknowledged that the investment adviser has shared any economies of scale with the Funds by investing in the investment adviser’s infrastructure,
Schwab Fundamental Index Funds | Annual Report
Schwab Fundamental Index Funds
as discussed above, over time and that the investment adviser’s internal costs of providing investment management, technology, administrative, legal and compliance services to the Funds continue to increase as a result of regulatory or other developments. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that each Fund obtains reasonable benefits from economies of scale.
In the course of their deliberations, the Trustees may have accorded different weights to various factors and 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 the services provided and the related expenses borne by the investment adviser and its affiliates and such other matters as the Trustees considered to be relevant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment.

Schwab Fundamental Index Funds | Annual Report
Schwab Fundamental Index Funds
asset allocation The practice of dividing a portfolio among different asset classes, with each asset class assigned a particular percentage.
asset class A group of securities with similar structure and basic characteristics. Stocks, bonds and cash are the three main examples of asset classes.
Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index An index that is a broad-based benchmark measuring the performance of the U.S. investment grade, taxable bond market, including U.S. Treasuries, government-related and corporate bonds, mortgage pass-through securities, commercial mortgage-backed securities, and asset-backed securities that are publicly available for sale in the United States. To be eligible for inclusion in the index, securities must be fixed rate, non-convertible, U.S. dollar-denominated with at least $300 million or more of outstanding face value and have one or more years remaining to maturity. The index excludes certain types of securities, including tax-exempt state and local government series bonds, structured notes embedded with swaps or other special features, private placements, floating rate securities, inflation-linked bonds and Eurobonds. The index is market capitalization weighted and the securities in the index are updated on the last business day of each month.
Bloomberg US Treasury Bills 1–3 Month Index An index that includes all publicly issued zero-coupon U.S. Treasury Bills that have a remaining maturity of less than 3 months but more than 1 month, are rated investment grade and have $300 million or more of outstanding face value. It excludes zero-coupon STRIPS.
bond A security representing a loan from the investor to the issuer. A bond typically pays interest at a fixed rate (the coupon rate) until a specified date (the maturity date), at which time the issuer returns the money borrowed (principal or face value) to the bondholder. Because of their structure, bonds are sometimes called “fixed-income securities” or “debt securities.”
An individual bond is subject to the credit risk of the issuer. Changes in interest rates can affect a bond’s market value prior to call or maturity. There is no guarantee that a bond’s yield to call or maturity will provide a positive return over the rate of inflation.
bond fund A bond fund is subject to the same credit, interest rate, and inflation risks as bonds. In addition, a bond fund incurs ongoing fees and expenses. A bond fund’s net asset value will fluctuate with the price of the underlying bonds and the portfolio turnover activity; return of principal is not guaranteed.
cap, capitalization See “market cap.”
capital gain, capital loss the difference between the amount paid for an investment and its value at a later time. If the investment has been sold, the capital gain or loss is considered a realized gain or loss. If the investment is still held, the capital gain or loss is considered unrealized appreciation or depreciation.
expense ratio The amount that is taken from a mutual fund’s assets each year to cover the fund’s operating expenses. An expense ratio of 0.50% means that a fund’s expenses amount to half of one percent of its average net assets a year.
market cap, market capitalization The value of a company as determined by the total value of all shares of its stock outstanding.
MSCI EAFE Index (Net) A free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed markets in Europe, Australasia, and the Far East. 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.
MSCI Emerging Markets Index (Net) A free float-adjusted market capitalization weighted index that is designed to measure equity market performance in the global emerging markets. This series approximates the minimum possible dividend reinvestment. The 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 mutual fund. NAV is calculated by taking the fund’s total assets, subtracting liabilities, and dividing by the number of shares outstanding.
outstanding shares, shares outstanding When speaking of a company or mutual fund, indicates all shares currently held by investors.
price-to-book ratio (P/B) The market price of a company’s stock compared with its “book value.” A mutual fund’s P/B is the weighted average of the P/B of all stocks in the fund’s portfolio.
price-to-earnings ratio (P/E) The market price of a company’s stock compared with earnings over the past year. A mutual fund’s P/E is the weighted average of the P/E of all stocks in the fund’s portfolio.
restricted and illiquid securities Restricted securities are securities that are subject to legal restrictions on their sale. Restricted securities generally can be sold in privately negotiated transactions, pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 (the 1933 Act), or in a registered public offering. Certain restricted securities, such as Section 4(a)(2) commercial paper and Rule 144A securities under the 1933 Act, may be considered to be liquid if they meet the criteria for liquidity established by the Board. Illiquid securities generally are any securities that cannot be disposed of promptly and in the ordinary course of business at approximately the amount at which a fund has valued the instruments. The liquidity of a fund’s investments is monitored under the supervision and direction of the Board. Investments currently not considered liquid include repurchase agreements not maturing within seven days and certain restricted securities.

President of Schwab Asset
Management and the funds
covered in this report.
Dear Shareholder,
Geopolitical, economic, and market challenges abounded during the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022. Although the period started off strong, with markets reaching new highs in the final months of 2021, the subsequent 10 months were beset by rapidly rising inflation, sharply climbing interest rates, steeply declining stock prices, and the onset of a war in Europe as Russia invaded Ukraine. Economic growth in the United States and most of the world slowed. By the end of the period, the S&P 500® Index, a bellwether for the overall U.S. stock market, lost nearly 20% of its value from its early-January 2022 peak and returned -14.6% for the reporting period. The MSCI EAFE® Index (Net)*, a broad measure of developed international equity performance, declined by more than 25% between early-January 2022 highs and the end of the reporting period and returned -23.0% for the reporting period. U.S. fixed-income markets slumped in the face of inflationary pressures, with the broad U.S. bond market, as measured by the Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index, returning -15.7% for the reporting period.
At Schwab Asset Management, we recognize that today’s turbulent investment environment may be unsettling for many investors. Market declines and volatility can rattle confidence even in well-established investment plans and can cause investors to impulsively react to market movements. At such times, it is helpful to remember that, even in the face of market turmoil and volatility, most investors are best served by maintaining a diversified portfolio that reflects their risk tolerance and goals.
The Schwab MarketTrack Portfolios are designed to provide a convenient way for investors to combine investments in Schwab Fundamental Index Funds, traditional market-cap index strategies, and bond funds. For those with a longer time horizon and a greater tolerance for volatility, the Schwab MarketTrack All Equity Portfolio provides a diversified all-stock solution. At the other end of the risk spectrum, the Schwab MarketTrack Conservative Portfolio has a larger allocation to bond holdings for investors who are more risk averse or seeking short-term stability of their investment. The Schwab MarketTrack Growth Portfolio and the Schwab MarketTrack Balanced Portfolio fill out the offerings in between.
Thank you for investing with Schwab Asset Management, and for trusting us to help you achieve your financial goals. For more information about the Schwab MarketTrack Portfolios, please continue reading this report. In addition, you can find further details about these funds by visiting our website at www.schwabassetmanagement.com. We are also happy to hear from you at 1-877-824-5615.

The Investment Environment
For the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, U.S. and international equity and bond markets lost ground. After several key market indices hit record highs through early January 2022, equity markets around the globe began to slide in reaction to growing headwinds, including accelerating inflation and the increasing likelihood of rising interest rates. In late February 2022, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine drove oil prices to over $100 per barrel for the first time since 2014 and roiled stock markets around the world. Albeit decelerating, COVID-19 continued to weigh on economies worldwide, with highly transmissible variants and subvariants keeping infection rates high in many areas. As the reporting period progressed, economic growth slowed, interest rates rose, and recession fears mounted. The U.S. dollar continued to exhibit strength against a basket of foreign currencies, ending the reporting period significantly stronger and generally reducing the returns of overseas investments in U.S. dollar terms. For the reporting period, the S&P 500® Index, a bellwether for the overall U.S. stock market, returned -14.61%. U.S. small-cap stocks underperformed U.S. large-cap stocks, with the Russell 2000® Index and the Russell 1000® Index returning -18.54% and -16.38%, respectively. Among U.S. large-cap stocks, growth stocks significantly underperformed value stocks, with the Russell 1000® Growth Index and Russell 1000® Value Index returning -24.60% and -7.00%, respectively. Among U.S. industry sectors, only energy generated strong positive returns, driven by soaring oil and gas prices. Traditionally defensive sectors, such as consumer staples, utilities, and health care, tended to outperform the market average, while cyclically sensitive sectors, such as consumer discretionary, real estate, and information technology, lagged. Outside the United States, the MSCI EAFE® Index (Net)*, a broad measure of developed international equity performance, returned -23.00% and the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (Net)* returned -31.03%. U.S. and international bonds were also weak for the reporting period as economic uncertainty and rising interest rates by many central banks drove bond yields up and bond prices down. (Bond yields and bond prices typically move in opposite directions.) The Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index returned -15.68% and the FTSE non-US Dollar World Government Bond Index returned -27.64%.
After a recovery from the dramatic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic through the end of 2021, U.S. gross domestic product (GDP) increased at an annualized rate of 6.9% for the fourth quarter. However, amid fading government stimuli, ongoing supply chain disruptions, persisting inflation, a tight labor market, and a widening U.S. trade deficit, GDP decreased at an annualized rate of -1.6% and -0.6% for the first and second quarters of 2022, respectively. GDP growth was positive for the third quarter of 2022, increasing at an annualized rate of 2.9%, driven primarily by energy

exports. Consumer spending also grew but at a slower pace than in the second quarter. Inflation remained stubbornly high, hitting a 40-year high in June due to imbalances in the labor market, supply chain bottlenecks, and soaring energy costs, before falling slightly by the end of the reporting period. The unemployment rate remained low, ending the reporting period near pre-pandemic lows.
Outside the United States, global economies also wrestled with the fallout of the COVID-19 pandemic, high energy costs, rising inflation, and the war in Ukraine. After spiking in early March 2022 as sanctions were imposed on Russian imports—and again in June on supply-and-demand imbalances—oil prices generally fell through the rest of the reporting period, ending at just over $86 per barrel. The eurozone, heavily impacted by the war in Ukraine and associated commodity price spikes, managed to eke out small gains in GDP for the fourth quarter of 2021 and first and second quarters of 2022, as COVID-19 restrictions eased and tourism increased in response to pent-up demand. The United Kingdom also posted small gains in GDP growth for the fourth quarter of 2021 and first and second quarters of 2022. Among emerging markets, China’s GDP growth rate remained positive but slowed notably as China dealt with numerous headwinds including lockdowns and quarantines, declining domestic consumption, and a severe property downturn as a result of stalled demand, a decline in financing for property development, halted construction on in progress projects, and homeowners pausing mortgage payments on incomplete builds. India’s GDP growth also remained positive over the reporting period, particularly in the second quarter of 2022, on rising consumer demand and a rapid decline in COVID-19 cases.
Monetary policy around the world varied. In the United States, after maintaining the federal funds rate in a range of 0.00% to 0.25% through mid-March 2022, as inflation continued to rise and indicators of economic activity and employment continued to strengthen, the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) shifted its stance. After issuing successively stronger signals that interest rates could begin to rise sooner in 2022 than previously anticipated, the Fed raised the federal funds rate five times during the reporting period—by 0.25% in mid-March, 0.50% in early May, 0.75% in mid-June, 0.75% in late July, and 0.75% in late September—in its ongoing efforts to achieve a return to price stability. The federal funds rate ended the reporting period in a range of 3.00% to 3.25%. In June, the Fed also began to reduce the $9 trillion in assets it held on its balance sheet, vowing to be even more aggressive than during its last round of quantitative tightening between 2017 and 2019. Outside the United States, central banks were similarly responsive. After holding its policy rate unchanged since March 2015, at 0.00%, the European Central Bank raised its interest rate three times over the reporting period in an effort to dampen demand and control inflation, which in October 2022 rose into double-digits. The Bank of England raised its key official bank rate seven times during the reporting period, bringing borrowing costs to a 13-year high as the Bank of England wrestles with soaring inflation. In contrast, the Bank of Japan continued to uphold its short-term interest rate target of -0.1%, unchanged since 2016, but raised its inflation forecast at its October 2022 meeting. Monetary policies in emerging markets were mixed. Central banks in India, Indonesia, Brazil, Mexico, and Pakistan raised their rates multiple times over the reporting period to counteract the impacts of inflation. In contrast, China cut its interest rate three times over the reporting period, in part as a result of a resurgence of COVID-19 cases and a lingering property downturn. Russia raised its benchmark policy rate to 20% in late February 2022 amid the broadening fallout of Western sanctions in retaliation against Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, but subsequently reduced it several times.
U.S. bond yields remained relatively flat through the final two months of 2021. However, as inflation continued to rise and Fed monetary policy shifted, bond yields began to rise in early 2022, ending October near reporting-period highs and exerting downward pressure on bond prices. Over the reporting period, the yield on the 10-year U.S. Treasury rose from 1.55% to 4.10%. Short-term rates also rose, with the yield on the three-month U.S. Treasury climbing from 0.05% to 4.22% over the reporting period. Outside the U.S., bond yields generally followed a similar trajectory.

Schwab MarketTrack All Equity Portfolio as of October 31, 2022
The Schwab MarketTrack All Equity Portfolio (the fund) seeks high capital growth through an all-stock portfolio. To pursue its goal, the fund maintains a defined asset allocation. The fund’s target allocation is 100% in stock investments, with certain percentages for different segments of the stock market. For the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, the fund remained close to the target allocations of 50% in U.S. large-cap, 30% in international, 15% in U.S. small cap-stocks, and 5% in real estate securities. The fund invests mainly in other affiliated Schwab Funds, including index funds and exchange-traded funds (ETFs), which seek to track or replicate the total returns of various market indices. For more information concerning the fund’s investment objective, strategies, and risks, please see the fund’s prospectus.
Market Highlights. For the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, U.S. and international equity and bond markets lost ground. After several key market indices hit record highs through early January 2022, equity markets around the globe began to slide in reaction to growing headwinds, including accelerating inflation and the increasing likelihood of rising interest rates.

As the reporting period progressed, economic growth slowed, interest rates rose, and recession fears mounted. U.S. small-cap stocks underperformed U.S. large-cap stocks. Among U.S. large-cap stocks, growth stocks significantly underperformed value stocks. As inflation rose and U.S. Federal Reserve monetary policy shifted, bond yields began to rise in early 2022, ending October near reporting-period highs and exerting downward pressure on bond prices. (Bond yields and bond prices typically move in opposite directions.) The U.S. dollar continued to exhibit strength against a basket of foreign currencies, ending the reporting period significantly stronger and generally reducing the returns of overseas investments in U.S. dollar terms.
Performance. For the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, the fund returned -16.89%. The fund’s custom blended comparative index, the All Equity Composite Index (the composite index), returned -16.51%.
Positioning and Strategies. Over the reporting period, the fund’s asset allocations were broadly in line with those of the composite index.
The fund’s U.S. equity allocations detracted the most from the total return of the fund. The Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund was the largest detractor from the total return of the fund, returning approximately -15% for the reporting period, largely due to the Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund’s large position within the fund. The Schwab Small-Cap Index Fund and Schwab U.S. Large-Cap Growth Index Fund also detracted from the total return of the fund, returning approximately -19% and -25%, respectively, for the reporting period. The Schwab Fundamental US Small Company Index Fund and Schwab Fundamental US Large Company Index Fund were the smallest detractors from the total return of the fund, returning approximately -11% and -4%, respectively, for the reporting period.
The fund’s international equity allocation also detracted from the total return of the fund. The Schwab International Index Fund detracted from the total return of the fund and returned approximately -23% for the reporting period. The Schwab Fundamental International Small Company Index Fund also detracted from the total return of the fund, returning approximately -27% for the reporting period. The Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets Large Company Index Fund also detracted from the total return of the fund, returning approximately -25% for the reporting, but slightly outperformed its comparative index. The Schwab Fundamental International Large Company Index Fund detracted from the total return of the fund, returning approximately -17% for the reporting period.
The fund’s real estate allocation, the Schwab U.S. REIT ETF, detracted from the total return of the fund as well, returning approximately -19% for the reporting period.

After several key market indices hit record highs through early January 2022, equity markets around the globe began to slide in reaction to growing headwinds, including accelerating inflation and the increasing likelihood of rising interest rates. In late February 2022, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine drove oil prices to over $100 per barrel for the first time since 2014 and roiled stock markets around the world. Albeit decelerating, COVID-19 continued to weigh on economies worldwide, with highly transmissible variants and subvariants keeping infection rates high in many areas. As the reporting period progressed, economic growth slowed, interest rates rose, and recession fears mounted. U.S. small-cap stocks underperformed U.S. large-cap stocks. Among U.S. large-cap stocks, growth stocks significantly underperformed value stocks. As inflation rose and U.S. Federal Reserve monetary policy shifted, bond yields began to rise in early 2022, ending October near reporting-period highs and exerting downward pressure on bond prices. (Bond yields and bond prices typically move in opposite directions.) The U.S. dollar continued to exhibit strength against a basket of foreign currencies, ending the reporting period significantly stronger and generally reducing the returns of overseas investments in U.S. dollar terms.
Performance. For the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, the fund returned -15.52%. The fund’s custom blended comparative index, the Growth Composite Index (the composite index), returned -15.10%.
Positioning and Strategies. Over the reporting period, the fund’s asset allocations were broadly in line with those of the composite index.
The fund’s U.S. equity allocations detracted the most from the total return of the fund. The Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund was the largest detractor from the total return of the fund, returning approximately -15% for the reporting period, largely due to the Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund’s large position within the fund. The Schwab Small-Cap Index Fund and Schwab U.S. Large-Cap Growth Index Fund also detracted from the total return of the fund, returning approximately -19% and -25%, respectively, for the reporting period. The Schwab Fundamental US Large Company Index Fund and Schwab Fundamental US Small Company Index Fund were the smallest detractors from the total return of the fund, returning approximately -4% and -11%, respectively, for the reporting period.
The fund’s international equity allocation also detracted from the total return of the fund. The Schwab International Index Fund detracted from the total return of the fund and returned approximately -23% for the reporting period. The Schwab Fundamental International Small Company Index Fund also detracted from the total return of the fund, returning approximately -27% for the reporting period. The Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets Large Company Index Fund also detracted from the total return of the fund, returning approximately -25% for the reporting, but slightly outperformed its comparative index. The Schwab Fundamental International Large Company Index Fund detracted from the total return of the fund, returning approximately -17% for the reporting period.
The fund’s fixed-income allocation, the Schwab U.S. Aggregate Bond Index Fund, detracted from the total return of the fund, returning approximately -16% for the reporting period.
The fund’s real estate allocation, the Schwab U.S. REIT ETF, detracted from the total return of the fund as well, returning approximately -19% for the reporting period.

Fund Expenses (Unaudited)
Examples for a $1,000 Investment
As a fund shareholder, you may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, transfer agent and shareholder services fees, and other fund expenses.
The expense examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing cost (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare this cost with the ongoing cost of investing in other mutual funds. These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested for six months beginning May 1, 2022 and held through October 31, 2022.
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. 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:
Schwab MarketTrack All Equity Portfolio, Schwab MarketTrack Growth Portfolio, Schwab MarketTrack Balanced Portfolio, and Schwab MarketTrack Conservative Portfolio (the funds) are each a series of Schwab Capital Trust (the trust), a no-load, open-end management investment company. The trust is organized as a Massachusetts business trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act). The list below shows all the funds in the trust as of the end of the period, including the funds discussed in this report, which are highlighted:

The funds are primarily “funds of funds.” Each of the funds seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing mainly in a combination of other Schwab Funds (underlying funds) in accordance with its target portfolio allocation. The funds may also invest directly in equity or fixed-income securities, other mutual funds, exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and cash equivalents, including money market securities, to achieve their investment objectives.
Each fund in this report offers one share class. Shares are bought and sold at closing net asset value per share (NAV), which is the price for all outstanding shares of a fund. Each share has a par value of 1/1,000 of a cent, and the funds’ Board of Trustees (the Board) may authorize the issuance of as many shares as necessary.
Each fund maintains its own account for purposes of holding assets and accounting, and is considered a separate entity for tax purposes. Within its account, each fund may also keep certain assets in segregated accounts, as required by securities law.
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the funds use in their preparation of financial statements. The funds follow the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) 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 financial statements of the funds should be read in conjunction with the underlying funds’ financial statements. 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) and are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
(a) Security Valuation:
Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Board has designated authority to a Valuation Designee, the funds’ investment adviser, to make fair valuation determinations under adopted procedures, subject to Board oversight. The investment adviser has formed a Pricing Committee to administer the pricing and valuation of portfolio securities and other assets and liabilities and to ensure that prices used for internal purposes or provided by third parties reasonably reflect fair value. The Valuation Designee may utilize independent pricing services, quotations from securities and financial instrument dealers and other market sources to determine fair value.
Securities held in the funds’ portfolio are valued every business day. The following valuation policies and procedures are used by the Valuation Designee 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 the mean of the most recent bid and ask quotes.
• Mutual funds: Mutual funds are valued at their respective NAVs.
• Cash management sweep time deposits: Balances held in cash management sweep time deposits were accounted for on a cost basis, which approximates fair value.
• Securities for which no quoted value is available: The Valuation Designee has adopted procedures to fair value a fund’s securities when market prices are not “readily available” or are unreliable. For example, a security may be fair valued 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. Fair value determinations are made in good faith in accordance with adopted valuation procedures. The Valuation Designee considers a number of factors, including unobservable market inputs, when arriving at fair value. The Valuation Designee may employ methods 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. 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.
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 methods 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 it is determined 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 the Valuation Designee’s 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 investments — 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, mutual funds and ETFs. 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 underlying securities 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.
• Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Valuation Designee’s 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 readily available for these securities, one or more valuation methods are used for which sufficient and reliable data is available. The inputs used in estimating the value of Level 3 prices

Financial Notes (continued)
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
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 in the absence of market information. Assumptions used due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting fair value and therefore the funds’ results of operations.
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The levels associated with valuing the funds’ investments as of October 31, 2022 are disclosed in the Portfolio Holdings.
(b) Accounting Policies for certain Portfolio Investments (if held):
Cash Management Transactions: Effective May 23, 2022 Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. (BBH) was replaced by Citibank, N.A as custodian of the funds. The funds no longer subscribe to the BBH Cash Management Service Sweep (CMS Sweep). The BBH CMS Sweep was an investment product that automatically swept the funds’ cash balances into overnight offshore time deposits with either the BBH Grand Cayman branch or a branch of a pre-approved commercial bank. This fully automated program allowed the funds to earn interest on cash balances. Excess cash invested with deposit institutions domiciled outside of the U.S., as with any offshore deposit, was subject to sovereign actions in the jurisdiction of the deposit institution including, but not limited to, freeze, seizure or diminution. The funds assumed the risk associated with the repayment of principal and payment of interest on such instruments by the institution with which the deposit was ultimately placed. The funds terminated the CMS Sweep program and cash was returned to the funds prior to terminating services with BBH.
Cash Investments: The funds may invest a portion of their assets in cash. Cash includes cash bank balances in an interest-bearing demand deposit account with maturity on demand by the funds.
(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.
(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). 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 Amended and Restated Investment Advisory Agreement (Advisory Agreement) between the investment adviser and the trust, the investment adviser will pay the operating expenses of each fund, excluding taxes, any brokerage expenses, and extraordinary or non-routine expenses. Taxes, any brokerage expenses and extraordinary or non-routine expenses that are specific to a fund are charged directly to the fund. The Advisory Agreement excludes paying acquired fund fees and expenses, which are indirect expenses incurred by a fund through its investments in underlying funds. Such expenses are reflected in the net asset values of the underlying funds.
(f) Distributions to Shareholders:
The funds make distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, once a year, except for the Schwab MarketTrack Conservative Portfolio, which makes distributions from net investment income at the end of each calendar quarter. To receive a distribution, you must be a registered shareholder on the record date. Distributions are paid to shareholders on the payable date.
(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.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
(h) Federal Income Taxes:
The funds intend to meet federal income and excise tax requirements for regulated investment companies under subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended. 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.
(i) Indemnification:
Under the funds’ organizational documents, the officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the funds. In addition, in the normal course of business the funds enter into contracts with their vendors and others that provide general indemnifications. The funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the funds. However, based on experience, the funds expect the risk of loss attributable to these arrangements to be remote.
(j) Regulatory Update:
In October 2022, the SEC adopted rule and form amendments to require mutual funds and ETFs to transmit concise and visually engaging streamlined annual and semiannual reports to shareholders that highlight key information deemed important for retail investors to assess and monitor their fund investments. Other information, including financial statements, will no longer appear in funds’ streamlined shareholder reports but must be available online, delivered free of charge upon request, and filed on a semiannual basis on Form N-CSR. The rule and form amendments will be effective on January 24, 2023 and the compliance date will be July 24, 2024. At this time, management is evaluating the impact of these rule and form amendment changes on the content of the current shareholder report and the newly created annual and semiannual streamlined shareholder reports.
3. Risk Factors:
Investing in the funds may involve certain risks, as discussed in the funds’ prospectus, including, but not limited to, those described below. Any of these risks could cause an investor to lose money.
Asset Allocation Risk. The funds are subject to the risk that the selection of the underlying funds and the allocation of a fund’s assets among the various asset classes and market segments may cause the funds to underperform other funds with a similar investment objective. The funds are not managed to maximize tax efficiency for taxable shareholder accounts. Investors should consider whether the funds are appropriate investments in light of their current financial position and retirement needs.
Conflicts of Interest Risk. The investment adviser’s authority to select and substitute underlying funds from a variety of affiliated and unaffiliated mutual funds and ETFs may create a conflict of interest because the fees paid to it and its affiliates by some underlying funds are higher than the fees paid by other underlying funds. The investment adviser also may have an incentive to select an affiliated underlying fund for other reasons, including to increase assets under management or to support new investment strategies. In addition, other conflicts of interest may exist where the best interests of the affiliated underlying fund may not be aligned with those of a fund. However, the investment adviser is a fiduciary to each fund and is legally obligated to act in each fund’s best interests when selecting underlying funds.
Market Risk. Financial markets rise and fall in response to a variety of factors, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably. Markets may be impacted by economic, political, regulatory and other conditions, including economic sanctions and other government actions. In addition, the occurrence of global events, such as war, terrorism, environmental disasters, natural disasters and epidemics, may also negatively affect the financial markets. As with any investment whose performance is tied to these markets, the value of an investment in a fund will fluctuate, which means that an investor could lose money over short or long periods.
Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF) Risk. When a fund invests in an ETF, it will bear a proportionate share of the ETF’s expenses. In addition, lack of liquidity in the market for an ETF’s shares can result in its value being more volatile than the underlying portfolio of securities.
Direct Investment Risk. The funds may invest directly in cash, cash equivalents and equity and fixed-income securities, including money market securities, to maintain their allocations. A fund’s direct investment in these securities is subject to the same or similar risks as an underlying fund’s investment in the same securities.
Securities Lending Risk. Securities lending involves the risk of loss of rights in, or delay in recovery of, the loaned securities if the borrower fails to return the security loaned or becomes insolvent.

3. Risk Factors (continued):
Underlying Fund Investment Risk. Before investing in the funds, investors should assess the risks associated with the underlying funds in which the funds may invest, which include any combination of the risks described below.
• Investment Risk. The funds may experience losses with respect to their investment in an underlying fund. Further, there is no guarantee that an underlying fund will be able to achieve its objective.
• Investment Style Risk. Certain underlying funds seek to track the performance of various segments of the stock market, as measured by their respective indices. Such underlying funds follow these stocks during upturns as well as downturns. Because of their indexing strategy, these underlying funds do not take steps to reduce market exposure or to lessen the effects of a declining market. In addition, because of an underlying fund’s expenses, the underlying fund’s performance is normally below that of the index. Errors relating to an index may occur from time to time and may not be identified by the underlying fund’s index provider for a period of time. In addition, market disruptions could cause delays in an underlying fund’s index’s rebalancing schedule. Such errors and/or market disruptions may result in losses for an underlying fund.
• Tracking Error Risk. Each underlying index fund seeks to track the performance of its respective index, although it may not be successful in doing so. The divergence between the performance of an underlying fund and its index, positive or negative, is called "tracking error." Tracking error can be caused by many factors and it may be significant. If an underlying fund utilizes a sampling approach, it may not track the return of the index as well as it would if the underlying fund purchased all of the securities in 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.
• Fixed-Income Risk. Interest rates rise and fall over time, which will affect an underlying fund’s yield and share price. A change in a central bank’s monetary policy or economic conditions, among other things, may result in a change in interest rates. A rise in interest rates could cause an underlying fund’s share price to fall. The credit quality of a portfolio investment could also cause an underlying fund’s share price to fall. An underlying fund could lose money if the issuer or guarantor of a portfolio investment or the counterparty to a derivatives contract fails to make timely principal or interest payments or otherwise honor its obligations. Fixed-income securities may be paid off earlier or later than expected. Either situation could cause an underlying fund to hold securities paying lower-than-market rates of interest, which could hurt an underlying fund’s yield or share price. Below investment-grade bonds (junk bonds) involve greater credit risk, are more volatile, involve greater risk of price declines and may be more susceptible to economic downturns than investment-grade securities.
• Market Capitalization Risk. Securities issued by companies of different market capitalizations tend to go in and out of favor based on market and economic conditions. During a period when securities of a particular market capitalization fall behind other types of investments, an underlying fund’s performance could be impacted.
• Real Estate Investment Risk. An underlying fund that has a policy of concentrating its investments in real estate companies and companies related to the real estate industry is subject to risks associated with the direct ownership of real estate securities. 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.
• Money Market Fund Risk. The funds may invest in underlying money market funds that either seek to maintain a stable $1.00 net asset value (“stable share price money market funds”) or that have a share price that fluctuates (“variable share price money market funds”). Although an underlying stable share price money market fund seeks to maintain a stable $1.00 net asset value, it is possible to lose money by investing in such a money market fund. Because the share price of an underlying variable share price money market fund will fluctuate, when a fund sells the shares it owns they may be worth more or less than what the fund originally paid for them. In addition, neither type of money market fund is designed to offer capital appreciation. Certain underlying money market funds may impose a fee upon the sale of shares or may temporarily suspend the ability to sell shares if such fund’s liquidity falls below required minimums.
• Concentration Risk. To the extent that an underlying fund’s or the index’s portfolio is concentrated in the securities of issuers in a particular market, industry, group of industries, sector, country or asset class, the underlying fund may be adversely affected by the performance of those securities, may be subject to increased price volatility and may be more vulnerable to adverse economic, market, political, or regulatory occurrences affecting that market, industry, group of industries, sector, country or asset class.

3. Risk Factors (continued):
• Foreign Investment Risk. An underlying fund’s investments in securities of foreign issuers involve certain risks that may be 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); 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 an underlying fund’s investments, and could impair the underlying fund’s ability to meet its investment objective or invest in accordance with its investment strategy. There is a risk that investments in securities denominated in, and/or receiving revenues in, foreign currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar.
• Emerging Markets Risk. Emerging market countries may be more likely to experience political turmoil or rapid changes in market or economic conditions than more developed countries. Emerging market countries often have less uniformity in accounting, auditing, financial reporting and recordkeeping 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 developed countries. As a result, there may be an increased risk of illiquidity and price volatility associated with an underlying 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.
• Derivatives Risk. An underlying 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, but not the obligation, to buy or sell an instrument at a specific price on or 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 credit default swap is an agreement in which the seller agrees to make a payment to the buyer in the event of a specified credit event in exchange for a fixed payment or series of fixed payments.
An underlying fund’s use of derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. Certain of these risks, such as leverage risk, liquidity risk and market risk are discussed elsewhere in this section. An underlying fund’s use of derivatives is also subject to 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. 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 an underlying fund to realize higher amounts of short-term capital gains. An underlying fund’s use of derivatives could reduce the underlying fund’s performance, increase its volatility, and could cause the underlying fund to lose more than the initial amount invested. The use of derivatives that are subject to regulation by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) by an underlying fund could cause a fund to become a commodity pool, which would require the fund to comply with certain CFTC rules.
• Leverage Risk. Certain underlying fund transactions, such as derivatives transactions, short sales, reverse repurchase agreements, and mortgage dollar rolls, may give rise to a form of leverage and may expose an underlying fund to greater risk. Leverage tends to magnify the effect of any decrease or increase in the value of an underlying fund’s portfolio securities, which means even a small amount of leverage can have a disproportionately large impact on the underlying fund.
• Liquidity Risk. An underlying fund may be unable to sell certain securities, such as illiquid securities, readily at a favorable time or price, or the underlying fund may have to sell them at a loss.
• Portfolio Turnover Risk. Certain of the underlying funds may buy and sell portfolio securities actively. If they do, their portfolio turnover rate and transaction costs will rise, which may lower the underlying fund’s performance and may increase the likelihood of capital gains distributions.
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: |
Investment Adviser
Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc., dba Schwab Asset Management, a wholly owned subsidiary of The Charles Schwab Corporation, serves as each fund’s investment adviser and administrator pursuant to an Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement between the investment adviser and the trust.
For its advisory and administrative services to the funds, the investment adviser is entitled to receive an annual fee of 0.13%, payable monthly, based on a percentage of each fund’s average daily net assets.
Shareholder Servicing
The Board has adopted a Shareholder Servicing Plan (the Plan) on behalf of the funds. The Plan enables each fund to bear expenses relating to the provision by financial intermediaries, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (Schwab), a broker-dealer affiliate of the investment adviser, (together, service providers), of certain account maintenance, customer liaison and shareholder services to the current shareholders of the funds.
Pursuant to the Plan, each fund’s shares are subject to an annual shareholder servicing fee of up to 0.25%. The shareholder servicing fee paid to a particular service provider is made pursuant to its written agreement with Schwab, as distributor of the funds (or, in the case of payments made to Schwab acting as a service provider, pursuant to Schwab’s written agreement with the funds). Payments under the Plan are made as described above without regard to whether the fee is more or less than the service provider’s actual cost of providing the services, and if more, such excess may be retained as profit by the service provider.
Expense Limitation
Although these agreements specify certain fees for these services, the investment adviser and its affiliates have agreed with the funds, for so long as the investment adviser serves as the investment adviser to the funds, which may only be amended or terminated with the approval of the Board, to limit the total annual fund operating expenses charged, excluding interest, taxes and certain non-routine expenses as a percentage of average daily net assets as follows:

The agreement to limit the funds’ total expenses charged is limited to each fund’s direct operating expenses and, therefore, does not apply to acquired fund fees and expenses, which are indirect expenses incurred by each fund through its investments in the underlying funds.

Interfund Borrowing and Lending
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. 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. The interfund lending facility is subject to the oversight and periodic review by the Board. The funds had no interfund borrowing or lending activity during the period.
Interfund Transactions
The funds may engage in direct transactions with certain other funds in the Fund Complex in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board pursuant to Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act. When one fund is seeking to sell a security that another is seeking to buy, an interfund transaction can allow both funds to benefit by reducing transaction costs. This practice is limited to funds that share the same investment adviser, trustees and/or officers. For the period ended October 31, 2022, each fund’s purchases and sales of securities with other funds in the Fund Complex as well as any realized gains (losses) were as follows:
| | PURCHASE COST | SALE PROCEEDS | REALIZED GAINS (LOSSES) |
| Schwab MarketTrack All Equity Portfolio | $— | $— | $— |
| Schwab MarketTrack Growth Portfolio | — | — | — |

5. Board of Trustees:
The Board may include people who are officers and/or directors of the investment adviser or its affiliates. Federal securities law limits the percentage of such “interested persons” who may serve on a trust’s board, and the trust was in compliance with these limitations throughout the report period. The funds did not pay any of these interested persons for their services as trustees, but they did pay non-interested persons (independent trustees), as noted on each fund’s Statement of Operations. For information regarding the trustees, please refer to the Trustees and Officers table at the end of this report.

Financial Notes (continued)
During the period, the funds were participants with other funds in the Fund Complex in a joint, syndicated, committed $850 million line of credit (the Syndicated Credit Facility), which matured on September 29, 2022. On September 29, 2022, the Syndicated Credit Facility was amended to run for a new 364 day period with the line of credit amount increasing to $1 billion, maturing on September 28, 2023. Under the terms of the Syndicated Credit Facility, in addition to interest charged on any borrowings by a fund, each fund paid a commitment fee of 0.15% per annum on the funds’ proportionate share of the unused portion of the Syndicated Credit Facility.
During the period, the funds were participants with other funds in the Fund Complex in a joint, unsecured, uncommitted $400 million line of credit (the Uncommitted Credit Facility), with State Street Bank and Trust Company, which matured on September 29, 2022. On September 29, 2022, the Uncommitted Credit Facility was amended to run for a new 364 day period with the line of credit amount remaining unchanged, maturing on September 28, 2023. Under the terms of the Uncommitted Credit Facility, each fund pays interest on the amount a fund borrows. There were no borrowings from either line of credit during the period.
The funds also have access to custodian overdraft facilities. A fund may have utilized the overdraft facility and incurred an interest expense, which is disclosed on each fund’s Statement of Operations, if any. The interest expense is determined based on a negotiated rate above the current Federal Funds Rate.

| Schwab MarketTrack Conservative Portfolio | 5,450,344 | 10,375,160 | 5,222,343 | 4,019,786 |
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 reflect the differing character of certain income items and net realized gains and losses for financial statement and tax purposes, and may result in reclassification among certain capital accounts on the financial statements. The funds may also designate a portion of the amount paid to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for tax purposes.
Permanent book and tax basis differences may result in reclassifications between components of net assets as required. The adjustments will have no impact on net assets or the results of operations.
As of October 31, 2022, 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 fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, the funds did not incur any interest or penalties.
9. 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 of Schwab Capital Trust and Shareholders of Schwab MarketTrack All Equity Portfolio, Schwab MarketTrack Growth Portfolio, Schwab MarketTrack Balanced Portfolio, and Schwab MarketTrack Conservative Portfolio:
Opinion on the Financial Statements and Financial Highlights
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio holdings, of Schwab MarketTrack All Equity Portfolio, Schwab MarketTrack Growth Portfolio, Schwab MarketTrack Balanced Portfolio, and Schwab MarketTrack Conservative Portfolio (the “Funds”), four of the funds constituting Schwab Capital Trust, as of October 31, 2022, the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the three years in the period then ended, and the related notes. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of October 31, 2022, and the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the three years in the period then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The financial highlights for each of the two years in the period ended October 31, 2019 were audited by other auditors, whose report, dated December 16, 2019, expressed an unqualified opinion on such financial highlights.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Funds are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2022, by correspondence with the custodian and transfer agent. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Liquidity Risk Management Program (unaudited)
The funds have adopted and implemented a liquidity risk management program (the “program”) as required by Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The funds’ Board of Trustees (the “Board”) has designated the funds’ investment adviser, Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc., dba Schwab Asset Management, as the administrator of the program. Personnel of the investment adviser or its affiliates conduct the day-to-day operation of the program.
Under the program, the investment adviser manages a fund’s liquidity risk, which is the risk that the fund could not meet shareholder redemption requests without significant dilution of remaining shareholders’ interests in the fund. The program is reasonably designed to assess and manage a fund’s liquidity risk, taking into consideration the fund’s investment strategy and the liquidity of its portfolio investments during normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed conditions; its historical redemption history and shareholder concentrations; and its cash holdings and access to other funding sources, including the custodian overdraft facility and lines of credit. The investment adviser’s process of determining the degree of liquidity of each fund’s investments is supported by third-party liquidity assessment vendors.
The funds’ Board reviewed a report at its meeting held on September 19, 2022 prepared by the investment adviser regarding the operation and effectiveness of the program for the period June 1, 2021, through May 31, 2022, which included individual fund liquidity risk metrics. No significant liquidity events impacting any of the funds were noted in the report. In addition, the investment adviser provided its assessment that the program had been operating effectively in managing each fund’s liquidity risk.

Investment Advisory Agreement Approval
The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), requires that the continuation of a fund’s investment advisory agreement must be specifically approved (1) by the vote of the trustees or by a vote of the shareholders of the fund, and (2) by the vote of a majority of the trustees who are not parties to the investment advisory agreement or “interested persons” of any party (the Independent Trustees), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. In connection with such approvals, the fund’s trustees must request and evaluate, and the investment adviser is required to furnish, such information as may be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the investment advisory agreement.
The Board of Trustees (the Board or the Trustees, as appropriate) calls and holds one or more meetings each year that are dedicated, in whole or in part, to considering whether to renew the investment advisory and administration agreement (the Agreement) between Schwab Capital Trust (the Trust) and Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (dba Schwab Asset Management) (the investment adviser) with respect to the existing funds in the Trust, including Schwab MarketTrack All Equity Portfolio, Schwab MarketTrack Growth Portfolio, Schwab MarketTrack Balanced Portfolio and Schwab MarketTrack Conservative Portfolio (each, a Fund and collectively, the Funds), and to review certain other agreements pursuant to which the investment adviser provides investment advisory services to certain other registered investment companies. In preparation for the meeting(s), the Board requests and reviews a wide variety of materials provided by the investment adviser, including information about the investment adviser’s affiliates, personnel, business goals and priorities, profitability, third-party oversight, corporate structure and operations. As part of the renewal process, the Independent Trustees’ legal counsel, on behalf of the Independent Trustees, sends an information request letter to the investment adviser seeking certain relevant information. The responses by the investment adviser are provided to the Trustees in the Board materials for their review prior to their meeting, and the Trustees are provided with the opportunity to request any additional materials. The Board also receives data provided by an independent provider of investment company data. 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 the Funds’ operations and performance, legal and compliance matters, risk management, portfolio turnover, and sales and marketing activity. In considering the renewal, the Independent Trustees receive advice from Independent Trustees’ legal counsel, including a memorandum regarding the responsibilities of trustees for the approval of investment advisory agreements. In addition, the Independent Trustees participate in question and
answer sessions with representatives of the investment adviser and meet in executive session outside the presence of Fund management.
The Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, considered information specifically relating to the continuance of the Agreement with respect to the Funds at meetings held on May 16, 2022 and June 8, 2022, and approved the renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds for an additional one-year term at the meeting on June 8, 2022 called for the purpose of voting on such approval.
The Board’s approval of the continuance of the Agreement with respect to the Funds was based on consideration and evaluation of a variety of specific factors discussed at these meetings and at prior meetings, including:
| 1. | the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to each Fund under the Agreement, including the resources of the investment adviser and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds; |
| 2. | each Fund’s investment performance and how it compared to that of certain other comparable mutual funds and benchmark data; |
| 3. | each Fund’s expenses and how those expenses compared to those of certain other similar mutual funds; |
| 4. | the profitability of the investment adviser and its affiliates, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (Schwab), with respect to each Fund, including both direct and indirect benefits accruing to the investment adviser and its affiliates; and |
| 5. | the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as each 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 the investment adviser to the Funds and the resources of the investment adviser and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds. In this regard, the Trustees evaluated, among other things, the investment adviser’s experience, track record, compliance program, resources dedicated to hiring and retaining skilled personnel and specialized talent, and information security resources. The Trustees also considered information provided by the investment adviser relating to services and support provided with respect to each Fund’s portfolio management team, portfolio strategy, and internal investment guidelines, as well as trading infrastructure, liquidity management, product design and analysis, shareholder communications, securities valuation, fund accounting and custody, and vendor and risk oversight. The Trustees also considered investments the investment adviser has made in its infrastructure, including

modernizing the investment adviser’s technology and use of data, increasing expertise in key areas (including portfolio management and trade operations), and improving business continuity, cybersecurity, due diligence, risk management processes, and information security programs, which are designed to provide enhanced services to the Funds and their shareholders. The Trustees considered Schwab’s overall financial condition and its reputation as a full service brokerage firm, as well as the wide range of products, services and account features that benefit Fund shareholders who are 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 the investment adviser to the Funds and the resources of the investment adviser 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 such Fund. Specifically, the Trustees considered each Fund’s performance relative to a peer category of other mutual funds and applicable indices/benchmarks, in light of total return and market trends, as well as in consideration of each Fund’s investment style and strategy attributes and disclosures. As part of this review, the Trustees considered the composition of the peer category, selection criteria and the reputation of the independent provider of investment company data who prepared the peer category analysis. The Trustees further considered the level of Fund performance in the context of their review of Fund expenses and the investment adviser’s profitability discussed below and also noted that the Board and a designated committee of the Board review performance throughout the year. Although Schwab MarketTrack Conservative Portfolio and Schwab MarketTrack All Equity Portfolio had performance that ranked in the fourth quartile of a relevant peer group for more than one performance period considered, the Board concluded that other factors relevant to performance supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to each Fund including that the underperformance was attributable, to a significant extent, to investment decisions by the investment adviser that were reasonable and consistent with the each Fund’s investment objective and policies and that the investment adviser had taken steps designed to help improve performance. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the performance of each Fund supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to such Fund.
Fund Expenses. With respect to each Fund’s expenses, the Trustees considered the rate of compensation called for by the Agreement, and each Fund’s operating expense ratio, in each case, in comparison to those of other similar mutual funds, such peer groups and comparisons having been selected and calculated by an independent provider of investment company data. The investment adviser reported to the Board, and the
Board took into account, the risk assumed by the investment adviser in the development of the Funds and provision of services as well as the competitive marketplace for financial products. The Trustees considered the effects of the investment adviser’s and Schwab’s practice of waiving certain fees to prevent total annual operating expenses of each Fund from exceeding a specified cap. The Trustees also considered the investment adviser’s contractual commitment to keep each Fund’s expense cap for so long as it serves as the adviser to the Fund. The Trustees also considered fees charged by the investment adviser to other mutual funds and to other types of accounts, but, with respect to such other types of accounts, accorded less weight to such comparisons due to the different legal, regulatory, compliance and operating features of mutual funds as compared to these other types of accounts, and any differences in the nature and scope of the services the investment adviser provides to these other accounts, and any differences in the market for these types of accounts. The Trustees noted that shareholders of the Funds indirectly pay their pro rata share of the fees and expenses of the underlying funds in which the Funds invest. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the expenses of each Fund are reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to such Fund.
Profitability. The Trustees considered the compensation flowing to the investment adviser and its affiliates, directly or indirectly and reviewed profitability on a pre-tax basis, without regard to distribution expenses. In this connection, the Trustees reviewed management’s profitability analyses. The Trustees also reviewed profitability of the investment adviser relating to the Schwab fund complex as a whole, noting the benefits to Fund shareholders of being part of the Schwab fund complex, including the allocations of certain fixed costs across the Funds and other funds in the complex. The Trustees also considered any other benefits derived by the investment adviser from its relationship with the Funds, such as whether, by virtue of its management of the Funds, the investment adviser obtains investment information or other research resources that aid it in providing advisory services to other clients. Also, because the Funds invest a portion of their assets in other funds within the Schwab fund complex, the Trustees considered that the investment adviser indirectly benefits from the Funds’ investments in other underlying funds managed by the investment adviser. The Trustees considered whether the 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 the investment adviser and its affiliates. The Trustees noted that the investment adviser continues to invest substantial sums in its business in order to provide enhanced research capabilities, services and systems to benefit the Funds. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the profitability of the investment adviser with respect to each Fund is reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to such Fund.

Economies of Scale. Although the Trustees recognized the difficulty of determining economies of scale with precision, the Trustees considered the potential existence of any economies of scale and whether those are passed along to a Fund’s shareholders through (i) the enhancement of services provided to the Funds in return for fees paid, including through investments by the investment adviser in its infrastructure, including modernizing the investment adviser’s technology and use of data, increasing expertise and capabilities in key areas (including portfolio and trade operations), and improving business continuity, cybersecurity, due diligence and information security programs, which are designed to provide enhanced services to the Funds and their shareholders; (ii) graduated investment advisory fee schedules or unitary fee structures, fee waivers, or expense caps by the investment adviser and its affiliates for those funds in the Schwab fund complex with such features; and (iii) pricing a fund to scale and keeping overall expenses down as the fund grows. The Trustees acknowledged that the investment adviser has shared any economies of scale with the Funds by investing in the investment adviser’s infrastructure, as discussed above, over time and that the investment adviser’s internal costs of
providing investment management, technology, administrative, legal and compliance services to the Funds continue to increase as a result of regulatory or other developments. The Trustees considered that the investment adviser and its affiliates employ contractual expense caps to protect shareholders from high fees, including for example, when fund assets are relatively small. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that each Fund obtains reasonable benefits from economies of scale.
In the course of their deliberations, the Trustees may have accorded different weights to various factors and 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 the services provided and the related expenses borne by the investment adviser and its affiliates and such other matters as the Trustees considered to be relevant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment.

Schwab MarketTrack Portfolios | Annual Report
Schwab MarketTrack Portfolios
bond A security representing a loan from the investor to the issuer. A bond typically pays interest at a fixed rate (the coupon rate) until a specified date (the maturity date), at which time the issuer returns the money borrowed (principal or face value) to the bondholder. Because of their structure, bonds are sometimes called “fixed-income securities” or “debt securities.”
An individual bond is subject to the credit risk of the issuer. Changes in interest rates can affect a bond’s market value prior to call or maturity. There is no guarantee that a bond’s yield to call or maturity will provide a positive return over the rate of inflation.
bond fund A bond fund is subject to the same credit, interest rate, and inflation risks as bonds. In addition, a bond fund incurs ongoing fees and expenses. A bond fund’s net asset value will fluctuate with the price of the underlying bonds and the portfolio turnover activity; return of principal is not guaranteed.
cap, capitalization See “market cap.”
capital gain, capital loss the difference between the amount paid for an investment and its value at a later time. If the investment has been sold, the capital gain or loss is considered a realized gain or loss.

President of Schwab Asset
Management and the funds
covered in this report.
Dear Shareholder,
Geopolitical, economic, and market challenges abounded during the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022. Although the period started off strong, with markets reaching new highs in the final months of 2021, the subsequent 10 months were beset by rapidly rising inflation, sharply climbing interest rates, steeply declining stock prices, and the onset of a war in Europe as Russia invaded Ukraine. Economic growth in the United States and most of the world slowed. By the end of the period, the S&P 500® Index, a bellwether for the overall U.S. stock market, lost nearly 20% of its value from its early-January 2022 peak and returned -14.6% for the reporting period. The MSCI EAFE® Index (Net)*, a broad measure of developed international equity performance, declined by more than 25% between early-January 2022 highs and the end of the reporting period and returned -23.0% for the reporting period. U.S. fixed-income markets slumped in the face of inflationary pressures, with the broad U.S. bond market, as measured by the Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index, returning -15.7% for the reporting period.
At Schwab Asset Management, we recognize that today’s turbulent investment environment may be unsettling for many investors. Market declines and volatility can rattle confidence even in well-established investment plans and can cause investors to impulsively react to market movements. At such times, it is helpful to remember that, even in the face of market turmoil and volatility, most investors are best served by maintaining a diversified portfolio that reflects their risk tolerance and goals.
The Schwab Target Funds offer a diversified portfolio solution designed to reflect an investor’s risk tolerance and investment goals as they change over time. As each fund draws closer to its designated target retirement date, its allocations shift from equity funds to fixed-income funds and from actively managed strategies to index strategies, helping you maintain a diversified portfolio that reflects your evolving risk appetite at every stage of your investment lifecycle up to and through retirement.
Thank you for investing with Schwab Asset Management. For more information about the Schwab Target Funds, please continue reading this report. In addition, you can find further details about these funds by visiting our website at www.schwabassetmanagement.com. We are also happy to hear from you at 1-877-824-5615.
Sincerely,
“ The Schwab Target Funds offer a diversified portfolio solution designed to reflect an investor’s risk tolerance and investment goals as they change over time.”
Past performance is no guarantee of future results.
Diversification and asset allocation strategies do not ensure a profit and cannot protect against losses in a declining market.

Schwab Target Funds | Annual Report
The Investment Environment
For the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, U.S. and international equity and bond markets lost ground. After several key market indices hit record highs through early January 2022, equity markets around the globe began to slide in reaction to growing headwinds, including accelerating inflation and the increasing likelihood of rising interest rates. In late February 2022, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine drove oil prices to over $100 per barrel for the first time since 2014 and roiled stock markets around the world. Albeit decelerating, COVID-19 continued to weigh on economies worldwide, with highly transmissible variants and subvariants keeping infection rates high in many areas. As the reporting period progressed, economic growth slowed, interest rates rose, and recession fears mounted. The U.S. dollar continued to exhibit strength against a basket of foreign currencies, ending the reporting period significantly stronger and generally reducing the returns of overseas investments in U.S. dollar terms. For the reporting period, the S&P 500® Index, a bellwether for the overall U.S. stock market, returned -14.61%. U.S. small-cap stocks underperformed U.S. large-cap stocks, with the Russell 2000® Index and the Russell 1000® Index returning -18.54% and -16.38%, respectively. Among U.S. large-cap stocks, growth stocks significantly underperformed value stocks, with the Russell 1000® Growth Index and Russell 1000® Value Index returning -24.60% and -7.00%, respectively. Among U.S. industry sectors, only energy generated strong positive returns, driven by soaring oil and gas prices. Traditionally defensive sectors, such as consumer staples, utilities, and health care, tended to outperform the market average, while cyclically sensitive sectors, such as consumer discretionary, real estate, and information technology, lagged. Outside the United States, the MSCI EAFE® Index (Net)*, a broad measure of developed international equity performance, returned -23.00% and the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (Net)* returned -31.03%. U.S. and international bonds were also weak for the reporting period as economic uncertainty and rising interest rates by many central banks drove bond yields up and bond prices down. (Bond yields and bond prices typically move in opposite directions.) The Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index returned -15.68% and the FTSE non-US Dollar World Government Bond Index returned -27.64%.
After a recovery from the dramatic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic through the end of 2021, U.S. gross domestic product (GDP) increased at an annualized rate of 6.9% for the fourth quarter. However, amid fading government stimuli, ongoing supply chain disruptions, persisting inflation, a tight labor market, and a widening U.S. trade deficit, GDP decreased at an annualized rate of -1.6% and -0.6% for the first and second quarters of 2022, respectively. GDP growth was positive for the third quarter of 2022, increasing at an annualized rate of 2.9%, driven primarily by energy

exports. Consumer spending also grew but at a slower pace than in the second quarter. Inflation remained stubbornly high, hitting a 40-year high in June due to imbalances in the labor market, supply chain bottlenecks, and soaring energy costs, before falling slightly by the end of the reporting period. The unemployment rate remained low, ending the reporting period near pre-pandemic lows.
Outside the United States, global economies also wrestled with the fallout of the COVID-19 pandemic, high energy costs, rising inflation, and the war in Ukraine. After spiking in early March 2022 as sanctions were imposed on Russian imports—and again in June on supply-and-demand imbalances—oil prices generally fell through the rest of the reporting period, ending at just over $86 per barrel. The eurozone, heavily impacted by the war in Ukraine and associated commodity price spikes, managed to eke out small gains in GDP for the fourth quarter of 2021 and first and second quarters of 2022, as COVID-19 restrictions eased and tourism increased in response to pent-up demand. The United Kingdom also posted small gains in GDP growth for the fourth quarter of 2021 and first and second quarters of 2022. Among emerging markets, China’s GDP growth rate remained positive but slowed notably as China dealt with numerous headwinds including lockdowns and quarantines, declining domestic consumption, and a severe property downturn as a result of stalled demand, a decline in financing for property development, halted construction on in progress projects, and homeowners pausing mortgage payments on incomplete builds. India’s GDP growth also remained positive over the reporting period, particularly in the second quarter of 2022, on rising consumer demand and a rapid decline in COVID-19 cases.
Monetary policy around the world varied. In the United States, after maintaining the federal funds rate in a range of 0.00% to 0.25% through mid-March 2022, as inflation continued to rise and indicators of economic activity and employment continued to strengthen, the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) shifted its stance. After issuing successively stronger signals that interest rates could begin to rise sooner in 2022 than previously anticipated, the Fed raised the federal funds rate five times during the reporting period—by 0.25% in mid-March, 0.50% in early May, 0.75% in mid-June, 0.75% in late July, and 0.75% in late September—in its ongoing efforts to achieve a return to price stability. The federal funds rate ended the reporting period in a range of 3.00% to 3.25%. In June, the Fed also began to reduce the $9 trillion in assets it held on its balance sheet, vowing to be even more aggressive than during its last round of quantitative tightening between 2017 and 2019. Outside the United States, central banks were similarly responsive. After holding its policy rate unchanged since March 2015, at 0.00%, the European Central Bank raised its interest rate three times over the reporting period in an effort to dampen demand and control inflation, which in October 2022 rose into double-digits. The Bank of England raised its key official bank rate seven times during the reporting period, bringing borrowing costs to a 13-year high as the Bank of England wrestles with soaring inflation. In contrast, the Bank of Japan continued to uphold its short-term interest rate target of -0.1%, unchanged since 2016, but raised its inflation forecast at its October 2022 meeting. Monetary policies in emerging markets were mixed. Central banks in India, Indonesia, Brazil, Mexico, and Pakistan raised their rates multiple times over the reporting period to counteract the impacts of inflation. In contrast, China cut its interest rate three times over the reporting period, in part as a result of a resurgence of COVID-19 cases and a lingering property downturn. Russia raised its benchmark policy rate to 20% in late February 2022 amid the broadening fallout of Western sanctions in retaliation against Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, but subsequently reduced it several times.
U.S. bond yields remained relatively flat through the final two months of 2021. However, as inflation continued to rise and Fed monetary policy shifted, bond yields began to rise in early 2022, ending October near reporting-period highs and exerting downward pressure on bond prices. Over the reporting period, the yield on the 10-year U.S. Treasury rose from 1.55% to 4.10%. Short-term rates also rose, with the yield on the three-month U.S. Treasury climbing from 0.05% to 4.22% over the reporting period. Outside the U.S., bond yields generally followed a similar trajectory.

Schwab Target 2010 Fund as of October 31, 2022
The Schwab Target 2010 Fund (the 2010 Fund) seeks to provide capital appreciation and income consistent with its current asset allocation. The 2010 Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing primarily in a combination of other affiliated Schwab Funds. The 2010 Fund may also invest in affiliated Schwab ETFs and unaffiliated third-party mutual funds and ETFs. The target asset allocation is adjusted annually by the investment adviser; as of the last annual adjustment at the beginning of February 2022, the 2010 Fund’s asset allocation was approximately 37.4% equity securities, 58.1% fixed-income securities, and 4.5% cash and cash equivalents (including money market funds). (For portfolio allocations as of the end of this reporting period, please see the 2010 Fund’s Portfolio Holdings included in this report.)
Market Highlights. For the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, U.S. and international equity and bond markets lost ground. After several key market indices hit record highs through early January 2022, equity markets around the globe began to slide in reaction to growing headwinds, including accelerating inflation and the increasing likelihood of rising interest rates. In late February 2022, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine drove oil prices to over $100 per barrel for the first time since 2014 and roiled stock markets around the world. Albeit decelerating, COVID-19 continued to weigh on economies worldwide, with highly transmissible variants and subvariants keeping infection rates high in many areas. As the reporting period progressed, economic growth slowed, interest rates rose, and recession fears mounted. U.S. small-cap stocks underperformed U.S. large-cap stocks. Among U.S. large-cap stocks, growth stocks significantly underperformed value stocks. As inflation rose and U.S. Federal Reserve monetary policy shifted, bond yields began to rise in early 2022, ending October near reporting-period highs and exerting downward pressure on bond prices. (Bond yields and bond prices typically move in opposite directions.) The U.S. dollar continued to exhibit strength against a basket of foreign currencies, ending the reporting period significantly stronger and generally reducing the returns of overseas investments in U.S. dollar terms.
Performance. For the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, the 2010 Fund returned -15.69%. The 2010 Fund’s internally calculated comparative index, the Target 2010 Composite Index (the composite index), returned -14.26%.
Positioning and Strategies. The 2010 Fund’s asset allocations were broadly in line with those of the composite index over the reporting period.
The 2010 Fund’s fixed-income allocations detracted the most from the total return of the 2010 Fund. The Schwab U.S. Aggregate Bond Index Fund was the largest detractor from the total return of the fund, returning approximately -16% for the reporting period, generally tracking its comparative index, the Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index.
The 2010 Fund’s U.S. equity allocations, particularly the 2010 Fund’s U.S. large-cap equity allocations, also detracted from the total return of the 2010 Fund. The Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund returned approximately -15% for the reporting period, generally tracking its comparative index, the S&P 500® Index. The Schwab Fundamental US Large Company Index Fund and Schwab U.S. Mid-Cap Index Fund were the smallest detractors from the total return of the 2010 Fund, returning approximately -4% and -17%, respectively, for the reporting period.
The 2010 Fund’s international equity allocations also detracted from the total return of the 2010 Fund. The Schwab International Opportunities Fund detracted from the total return of the 2010 Fund, returning approximately -35% for the reporting period, underperforming its comparative index, the MSCI EAFE® Index (Net)1. The Schwab International Opportunities Fund was the largest detractor from the relative return of the fund.
The 2010 Fund’s real estate allocation was a small detractor from the total return of the 2010 Fund. The Schwab Global Real Estate Fund returned approximately -25% for the reporting period, slightly underperforming its comparative index, the FTSE EPRA Nareit Global Index (Net)1.

Schwab Target 2030 Fund as of October 31, 2022
The Schwab Target 2030 Fund (the 2030 Fund) seeks to provide capital appreciation and income consistent with its current asset allocation. The 2030 Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing primarily in a combination of other affiliated Schwab Funds. The 2030 Fund may also invest in affiliated Schwab ETFs and unaffiliated third-party mutual funds and ETFs. The target asset allocation is adjusted annually by the investment adviser; as of the last annual adjustment at the beginning of February 2022, the 2030 Fund’s asset allocation was approximately 65.7% equity securities, 32.0% fixed-income securities, and 2.3% cash and cash equivalents (including money market funds). At its target date, the 2030 Fund’s allocation will be approximately 44.0% equity securities, 52.0% fixed-income securities, and 4.0% cash and cash equivalents (including money market funds). (For portfolio allocations as of the end of this reporting period, please see the 2030 Fund’s Portfolio Holdings included in this report.)
Market Highlights. For the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, U.S. and international equity and bond markets lost ground. After several key market indices hit record highs through early January 2022, equity markets around the globe began to slide in reaction to growing headwinds, including accelerating inflation and the increasing likelihood of rising interest rates. In late February 2022, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine drove oil prices to over $100 per barrel for the first time since 2014 and roiled stock markets around the world. Albeit decelerating, COVID-19 continued to weigh on economies worldwide, with highly transmissible variants and subvariants keeping infection rates high in many areas. As the reporting period progressed, economic growth slowed, interest rates rose, and recession fears mounted. U.S. small-cap stocks underperformed U.S. large-cap stocks. Among U.S. large-cap stocks, growth stocks significantly underperformed value stocks. As inflation rose and U.S. Federal Reserve monetary policy shifted, bond yields began to rise in early 2022, ending October near reporting-period highs and exerting downward pressure on bond prices. (Bond yields and bond prices typically move in opposite directions.) The U.S. dollar continued to exhibit strength against a basket of foreign currencies, ending the reporting period significantly stronger and generally reducing the returns of overseas investments in U.S. dollar terms.
Performance. For the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, the 2030 Fund returned -18.51%. The 2030 Fund’s internally calculated comparative index, the Target 2030 Composite Index (the composite index), returned -16.15%.
Positioning and Strategies. The 2030 Fund’s asset allocations were broadly in line with those of the composite index over the reporting period.
The 2030 Fund’s U.S. equity allocations, particularly the 2030 Fund’s U.S. large-cap equity allocations, detracted the most from the total return of the 2030 Fund.

Among U.S. large-cap stocks, growth stocks significantly underperformed value stocks. As inflation rose and U.S. Federal Reserve monetary policy shifted, bond yields began to rise in early 2022, ending October near reporting-period highs and exerting downward pressure on bond prices. (Bond yields and bond prices typically move in opposite directions.) The U.S. dollar continued to exhibit strength against a basket of foreign currencies, ending the reporting period significantly stronger and generally reducing the returns of overseas investments in U.S. dollar terms.
Performance. For the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, the 2045 Fund returned -20.76%. The 2045 Fund’s internally calculated comparative index, the Target 2045 Composite Index (the composite index), returned -17.98%.
Positioning and Strategies. The 2045 Fund’s asset allocations were broadly in line with those of the composite index over the reporting period.
The 2045 Fund’s U.S. equity allocations, particularly the 2045 Fund’s U.S. large-cap equity allocations, detracted the most from the total return of the 2045 Fund. The Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund returned approximately -15% for the reporting period, generally tracking its comparative index, the S&P 500® Index.
The 2045 Fund’s international equity allocations also detracted from the total return of the 2045 Fund. The Schwab International Opportunities Fund was the largest detractor from the total return of the 2045 Fund, returning approximately -35% for the reporting period, underperforming its comparative index, the MSCI EAFE® Index (Net)1. The Schwab International Opportunities Fund was the largest detractor from the relative return of the fund.
The 2045 Fund’s real estate allocation also detracted from the total return of the 2045 Fund. The Schwab Global Real Estate Fund returned approximately -25% for the reporting period, slightly underperforming its comparative index, the FTSE EPRA Nareit Global Index (Net)1.
The 2045 Fund’s fixed-income allocations were the smallest detractor from the total return of the 2045 Fund. The Schwab U.S. Aggregate Bond Index Fund returned approximately -16% for the reporting period, generally tracking its comparative index, the Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index. The Metropolitan West Total Return Bond Fund was removed from the 2045 Fund at the end of January 2022 and was the smallest detractor from the total return of the 2045 Fund, returning approximately -2% while held by the 2045 Fund.

Market Highlights. For the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, U.S. and international equity and bond markets lost ground. After several key market indices hit record highs through early January 2022, equity markets around the globe began to slide in reaction to growing headwinds, including accelerating inflation and the increasing likelihood of rising interest rates. In late February 2022, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine drove oil prices to over $100 per barrel for the first time since 2014 and roiled stock markets around the world. Albeit decelerating, COVID-19 continued to weigh on economies worldwide, with highly transmissible variants and subvariants keeping infection rates high in many areas.

(For portfolio allocations as of the end of this reporting period, please see the 2065 Fund’s Portfolio Holdings included in this report.)
Market Highlights. For the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, U.S. and international equity and bond markets lost ground. After several key market indices hit record highs through early January 2022, equity markets around the globe began to slide in reaction to growing headwinds, including accelerating inflation and the increasing likelihood of rising interest rates. In late February 2022, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine drove oil prices to over $100 per barrel for the first time since 2014 and roiled stock markets around the world. Albeit decelerating, COVID-19 continued to weigh on economies worldwide, with highly transmissible variants and subvariants keeping infection rates high in many areas. As the reporting period progressed, economic growth slowed, interest rates rose, and recession fears mounted. U.S. small-cap stocks underperformed U.S. large-cap stocks. Among U.S. large-cap stocks, growth stocks significantly underperformed value stocks. As inflation rose and U.S. Federal Reserve monetary policy shifted, bond yields began to rise in early 2022, ending October near reporting-period highs and exerting downward pressure on bond prices. (Bond yields and bond prices typically move in opposite directions.) The U.S. dollar continued to exhibit strength against a basket of foreign currencies, ending the reporting period significantly stronger and generally reducing the returns of overseas investments in U.S. dollar terms.
Performance. For the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2022, the 2065 Fund returned -21.78%. The 2065 Fund’s internally calculated comparative index, the Target 2065 Composite Index (the composite index), returned -18.76%.
Positioning and Strategies. The 2065 Fund’s asset allocations were broadly in line with those of the composite index over the reporting period.
The 2065 Fund’s U.S. equity allocations, particularly the 2065 Fund’s U.S. large-cap equity allocations, detracted the most from the total return of the 2065 Fund. The Schwab Select Large Cap Growth Fund returned approximately -37% for the reporting period, underperforming the U.S. large cap equity comparative index, the S&P 500® Index. The Schwab Select Large Cap Growth Fund was the largest detractor from the relative return of the fund.
The 2065 Fund’s international equity allocations also detracted from the total return of the 2065 Fund. The Schwab International Opportunities Fund was the largest detractor from the total return of the 2065 Fund, returning approximately -35% for the reporting period, underperforming its comparative index, the MSCI EAFE® Index (Net)1.
The 2065 Fund’s real estate allocation also detracted from the total return of the 2065 Fund. The Schwab Global Real Estate Fund returned approximately -25% for the reporting period, slightly underperforming its comparative index, the FTSE EPRA Nareit Global Index (Net)1.
The 2065 Fund’s fixed-income allocations were the smallest detractor from the total return of the 2065 Fund. The Loomis Sayles Investment Grade Bond Fund returned approximately -14% for the reporting period. The Baird Aggregate Bond Fund and Metropolitan West Total Return Bond Fund were removed from the 2065 Fund at the end of January 2022 and were the smallest detractors from the total return of the 2065 Fund, with both returning approximately -2% while held by the 2065 Fund.

| 3 | As stated in the prospectus. Includes 0.68% of acquired fund fees and expenses (AFFE), which are indirect expenses incurred by the fund through its investments in the underlying funds. Net Expense: Expenses reduced by a contractual fee waiver in effect for so long as Schwab Asset Management serves as the investment adviser to the fund. Gross Expense: Does not reflect the effect of contractual fee waivers.

Fund Expenses (Unaudited)
Examples for a $1,000 Investment
As a fund shareholder, you may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs; and (2) ongoing costs, including transfer agent fees and other fund expenses.
The expense examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing cost (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare this cost with the ongoing cost of investing in other mutual funds. These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested for six months beginning May 1, 2022 and held through October 31, 2022.
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. 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.

The Schwab Target Funds are "funds of funds." Each of the funds seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing primarily in a combination of other affiliated Schwab mutual funds. Each fund may also invest in affiliated Schwab exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and unaffiliated third party mutual funds and ETFs (all such mutual funds and ETFs referred to herein as the "underlying funds"). Each fund invests in the underlying funds in accordance with its target portfolio allocation. Each fund may also invest directly in equity and fixed-income securities, and cash and cash equivalents, including money market securities.
Each fund in this report offers one share class. Shares are bought and sold at closing net asset value per share (NAV), which is the price for all outstanding shares of a fund. Each share has a par value of 1/1,000 of a cent, and the funds’ Board of Trustees (the Board) may authorize the issuance of as many shares as necessary.
The Schwab Target 2065 Fund commenced operations on February 26, 2021.
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 (FASB) 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 financial statements of the funds should be read in conjunction with the underlying funds’ financial statements. 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) and are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
(a) Security Valuation:
Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Board has designated authority to a Valuation Designee, the funds’ investment adviser, to make fair valuation determinations under adopted procedures, subject to Board oversight. The investment adviser has formed a Pricing Committee to administer the pricing and valuation of portfolio securities and other assets and liabilities and to ensure that prices used for internal purposes or provided by third parties reasonably reflect fair value. The Valuation Designee may utilize independent pricing services, quotations from securities and financial instrument dealers and other market sources to determine fair value.
Securities held in the funds’ portfolio are valued every business day. The following valuation policies and procedures are used by the Valuation Designee 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 the mean of the most recent bid and ask quotes.
• Mutual funds: Mutual funds are valued at their respective NAVs.
• Cash management sweep time deposits: Balances held in cash management sweep time deposits were accounted for on a cost basis, which approximates fair value.
• Securities for which no quoted value is available: The Valuation Designee has adopted procedures to fair value a fund’s securities when market prices are not “readily available” or are unreliable. For example, a security may be fair valued 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. Fair value determinations are made in good faith in accordance with adopted valuation procedures. The Valuation Designee considers a number of factors, including unobservable market inputs, when arriving at fair value. The Valuation Designee may employ methods 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. 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.
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 methods 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 it is determined 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 the Valuation Designee’s 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 investments — 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 ,mutual funds and ETFs. Investments in mutual funds are valued daily at their NAVs, which are classified as Level 1 prices, without consideration to the classification level of the underlying securities 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.
• Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Valuation Designee’s 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 readily available for these securities, one or more valuation methods are used for which sufficient and reliable data is available. The inputs used 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 in the absence of market information. Assumptions used due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting fair value and therefore the funds’ results of operations.
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The levels associated with valuing the funds’ investments as of October 31, 2022 are disclosed in the Portfolio Holdings.
(b) Accounting Policies for certain Portfolio Investments (if held):
Cash Management Transactions: Effective May 23, 2022 Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. (BBH) was replaced by Citibank, N.A as custodian of the funds. The funds no longer subscribe to the BBH Cash Management Service Sweep (CMS Sweep). The BBH CMS Sweep was an investment product that automatically swept the funds’ cash balances into overnight offshore time deposits with either the BBH Grand Cayman branch or a branch of a pre-approved commercial bank. This fully automated program allowed the funds to earn interest on cash balances. Excess cash invested with deposit institutions domiciled outside of the U.S., as with any offshore deposit, was subject to sovereign actions in the jurisdiction of the deposit institution including, but not limited to, freeze, seizure or diminution. The funds assumed the risk associated with the repayment of principal and payment of interest on such instruments by the institution with which the deposit was ultimately placed. The funds terminated the CMS Sweep program and cash was returned to the funds prior to terminating services with BBH.
Cash Investments: The funds may invest a portion of their assets in cash. Cash includes cash bank balances in an interest-bearing demand deposit account with maturity on demand by the funds.
(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.
(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). Any distributions from underlying funds are recorded in accordance with the character of the distributions as designated by the underlying funds.
(e) Expenses:
Expenses that are specific to the fund are charged directly to the fund. Expenses that are common to more than one fund in the trusts generally are allocated among those funds in proportion to their average daily net assets. The fund bears its share of the acquired fund fees and expenses of the underlying funds, which are indirect expenses incurred by the fund through its investments in the underlying funds. Such expenses are reflected in the net asset values of the underlying funds.
(f) Distributions to Shareholders:
The funds make distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, once a year. To receive distributions, you must be a registered shareholder on the record date. Distributions are paid to shareholders on the payable date.
(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 under subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended. 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.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
(i) Indemnification:
Under the funds’ organizational documents, the officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the funds. In addition, in the normal course of business the funds enter into contracts with their vendors and others that provide general indemnifications. The funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the funds. However, based on experience, the funds expect the risk of loss attributable to these arrangements to be remote.
(j) Regulatory Update:
In October 2022, the SEC adopted rule and form amendments to require mutual funds and ETFs to transmit concise and visually engaging streamlined annual and semiannual reports to shareholders that highlight key information deemed important for retail investors to assess and monitor their fund investments. Other information, including financial statements, will no longer appear in funds’ streamlined shareholder reports but must be available online, delivered free of charge upon request, and filed on a semiannual basis on Form N-CSR. The rule and form amendments will be effective on January 24, 2023 and the compliance date will be July 24, 2024. At this time, management is evaluating the impact of these rule and form amendment changes on the content of the current shareholder report and the newly created annual and semiannual streamlined shareholder reports.
3. Risk Factors:
Investing in the funds may involve certain risks, as discussed in the funds’ prospectus, including, but not limited to, those described below. Any of these risks could cause an investor to lose money.
Asset Allocation Risk. The funds are subject to the risk that the selection of the underlying funds and the allocation of a fund’s assets among the various asset classes and market segments may cause the funds to underperform other funds with a similar investment objective. The funds are not managed to maximize tax efficiency for taxable shareholder accounts. Investors should consider whether the funds are an appropriate investment in light of their current financial position and retirement needs.
Conflicts of Interest Risk. The investment adviser’s authority to select and substitute underlying funds from a variety of affiliated and unaffiliated mutual funds and ETFs may create a conflict of interest because the fees paid to it and its affiliates by some underlying funds are higher than the fees paid by other underlying funds. The investment adviser also may have an incentive to select an affiliated underlying fund for other reasons, including to increase assets under management or to support new investment strategies. In addition, other conflicts of interest may exist where the best interests of the affiliated underlying fund may not be aligned with those of a fund. However, the investment adviser is a fiduciary to each fund and is legally obligated to act in each fund’s best interests when selecting underlying funds.
Market Risk. Financial markets rise and fall in response to a variety of factors, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably. Markets may be impacted by economic, political, regulatory and other conditions, including economic sanctions and other government actions. In addition, the occurrence of global events, such as war, terrorism, environmental disasters, natural disasters and epidemics, may also negatively affect the financial markets. As with any investment whose performance is tied to these markets, the value of an investment in the fund will fluctuate, which means that an investor could lose money over short or long periods.
Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF) Risk. When a fund invests in an ETF, it will bear a proportionate share of the ETF’s expenses. In addition, lack of liquidity in the market for an ETF’s shares can result in its value being more volatile than the underlying portfolio of securities.
Direct Investment Risk. The funds may invest directly in cash, cash equivalents and equity and fixed-income securities, including money market securities, to maintain their allocations. A fund’s direct investment in these securities is subject to the same or similar risks as an underlying fund’s investment in the same securities.
Underlying Fund Investment Risk. Before investing in the funds, investors should assess the risks associated with the underlying funds in which the funds may invest, which include any combination of the risks described below.
• Investment Risk. The funds may experience losses with respect to their investment in an underlying fund. Further, there is no guarantee that an underlying fund will be able to achieve its objective.
• Management Risk. Generally, the underlying funds are actively managed mutual funds. Any actively managed mutual fund is subject to the risk that its investment adviser (or sub-adviser(s)) will make poor security selections. An underlying fund’s adviser applies its own investment techniques and risk analyses in making investment decisions for the underlying fund, but there can be no guarantee that they will produce the desired results.
Schwab Target Funds | Annual Report
Financial Notes (continued)
3. Risk Factors (continued):
• Fixed-Income Risk. Interest rates rise and fall over time, which will affect an underlying fund’s yield and share price. A change in a central bank’s monetary policy or economic conditions, among other things, may result in a change in interest rates. A rise in interest rates could cause an underlying fund’s share price to fall. The credit quality of a portfolio investment could also cause an underlying fund’s share price to fall. An underlying fund could lose money if the issuer or guarantor of a portfolio investment or the counterparty to a derivatives contract fails to make timely principal or interest payments or otherwise honor its obligations. Fixed-income securities may be paid off earlier or later than expected. Either situation could cause an underlying fund to hold securities paying lower-than-market rates of interest, which could hurt an underlying fund’s yield or share price. Below investment-grade bonds (junk bonds) involve greater credit risk, are more volatile, involve greater risk of price declines and may be more susceptible to economic downturns than investment-grade securities.
• Equity Risk. The prices of equity securities rise and fall daily. These price movements may result from factors affecting individual companies, industries or the securities market as a whole. In addition, equity markets tend to move in cycles, which may cause stock prices to fall over short or extended periods of time.
• Market Capitalization Risk. Securities issued by companies of different market capitalizations tend to go in and out of favor based on market and economic conditions. During a period when securities of a particular market capitalization fall behind other types of investments, an underlying fund’s performance could be impacted.
• Money Market Fund Risk. The funds may invest in underlying money market funds that either seek to maintain a stable $1.00 net asset value (“stable share price money market funds”) or that have a share price that fluctuates (“variable share price money market funds”). Although an underlying stable share price money market fund seeks to maintain a stable $1.00 net asset value, it is possible to lose money by investing in such a money market fund. Because the share price of an underlying variable share price money market fund will fluctuate, when a fund sells the shares it owns they may be worth more or less than what the fund originally paid for them. In addition, neither type of money market fund is designed to offer capital appreciation. Certain underlying money market funds may impose a fee upon the sale of shares or may temporarily suspend the ability to sell shares if such fund’s liquidity falls below required minimums.
• ETF Risk. When an underlying fund invests in an ETF, it will bear a proportionate share of the ETF’s expenses. In addition, lack of liquidity in the market for an ETF’s shares can result in its value being more volatile than the underlying portfolio of securities.
• Foreign Investment Risk. An underlying fund’s investments in securities of foreign issuers involve certain risks that may be 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); 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 an underlying fund’s investments, and could impair the underlying fund’s ability to meet its investment objective or invest in accordance with its investment strategy. There is a risk that investments in securities denominated in, and/or receiving revenues in, foreign currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar.
• Emerging Markets Risk. Emerging market countries may be more likely to experience political turmoil or rapid changes in market or economic conditions than more developed countries. Emerging market countries often have less uniformity in accounting, auditing, financial reporting and recording 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 developed countries. As a result, there may be an increased risk of illiquidity and price volatility associated with an underlying 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.
• Derivatives Risk. An underlying 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, but not the obligation, to buy or sell an instrument at a specific price on or 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 credit default swap is an agreement in which the seller agrees to make a payment to the buyer in the event of a specified credit event in exchange for a fixed payment or series of fixed payments.

3. Risk Factors (continued):
An underlying fund’s use of derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. Certain of these risks, such as leverage risk, liquidity risk and market risk, are discussed elsewhere in this section. An underlying fund’s use of derivatives is also subject to 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. 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 an underlying fund to realize higher amounts of short-term capital gains. An underlying fund’s use of derivatives could reduce the underlying fund’s performance, increase its volatility, and could cause the underlying fund to lose more than the initial amount invested. The use of derivatives that are subject to regulation by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) by an underlying fund could cause a fund to become a commodity pool, which would require the fund to comply with certain CFTC rules.
• Leverage Risk. Certain underlying fund transactions, such as derivatives transactions, short sales, reverse repurchase agreements, and mortgage dollar rolls, may give rise to a form of leverage and may expose an underlying fund to greater risk. Leverage tends to magnify the effect of any decrease or increase in the value of an underlying fund’s portfolio securities, which means even a small amount of leverage can have a disproportionately large impact on the underlying fund.
• Liquidity Risk. An underlying fund may be unable to sell certain securities, such as illiquid securities, readily at a favorable time or price, or the underlying fund may have to sell them at a loss.
• Portfolio Turnover Risk. Certain of the underlying funds may buy and sell portfolio securities actively. If they do, their portfolio turnover rate and transaction costs will rise, which may lower the underlying fund’s performance and may increase the likelihood of capital gains distributions.
• Securities Lending Risk. An underlying fund may lend its portfolio securities to brokers, dealers, and other financial institutions. Securities lending involves the risk of loss of rights in, or delay in recovery of, the loaned securities if the borrower fails to return the security loaned or becomes insolvent.
Please refer to the funds’ prospectus for a more complete description of the principal risks of investing in the funds.
4. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions:
Investment Adviser
Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc., dba Schwab Asset Management (the investment adviser), a wholly owned subsidiary of The Charles Schwab Corporation, serves as the fund’s investment adviser and administrator pursuant to the Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement between the investment adviser and the trust. The investment adviser does not receive a fee for the services it performs for the fund. However, the investment adviser is entitled to receive an annual management fee from each of the affiliated Schwab Funds that serve as underlying funds.
Shareholder Servicing
The Board has adopted a Shareholder Servicing Plan (the Plan) on behalf of the funds. The Plan enables each fund to bear expenses relating to the provision by financial intermediaries, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc., a broker-dealer affiliate of the investment adviser (together, service providers), of certain shareholder services to the current shareholders of the funds. The funds are not subject to any fee under the Plan.
Expense Limitation
The investment adviser and its affiliates have agreed with the funds, for so long as the investment adviser serves as the investment adviser to the funds, in which the agreement may only be amended or terminated with the approval of the Board, to limit the total annual fund operating expenses charged, excluding interest, taxes and certain non-routine expenses to 0.00%.
The agreement to limit the funds’ total expenses charged is limited to each fund’s direct operating expenses and, therefore, does not apply to acquired fund fees and expenses, which are indirect expenses incurred by a fund through its investments in the underlying funds.

Interfund Borrowing and Lending
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. The interfund lending facility is subject to the oversight and periodic review by the Board. The funds had no interfund borrowing or lending activity during the period.

Interfund Transactions
The funds may engage in direct transactions with certain other funds in the Fund Complex in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board pursuant to Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act. When one fund is seeking to sell a security that another is seeking to buy, an interfund transaction can allow both funds to benefit by reducing transaction costs. This practice is limited to funds that share the same investment adviser, trustees and/or officers. For the period ended October 31, 2022, each fund’s purchases and sales of securities with other funds in the Fund Complex as well as any realized gains (losses) were as follows:

5. Board of Trustees:
The Board may include people who are officers and/or directors of the investment adviser or its affiliates. Federal securities law limits the percentage of such “interested persons” who may serve on a trust’s board, and the trusts were in compliance with these limitations throughout the report period. The funds did not pay any of these interested persons for their services as trustees, but they did pay non-interested persons (independent trustees), as noted on each fund’s Statement of Operations. For information regarding the trustees, please refer to the Trustees and Officers table at the end of this report.
6. Borrowing from Banks:
During the period, the funds were participants with other funds in the Fund Complex in a joint, syndicated, committed $850 million line of credit (the Syndicated Credit Facility), which matured on September 29, 2022. On September 29, 2022, the Syndicated Credit Facility was amended to run for a new 364 day period with the line of credit amount increasing to $1 billion, maturing on September 28, 2023. Under the terms of the Syndicated Credit Facility, in addition to interest charged on any borrowings by a fund, each fund paid a commitment fee of 0.15% per annum on the funds’ proportionate share of the unused portion of the Syndicated Credit Facility.
During the period, the funds were participants with other funds in the Fund Complex in a joint, unsecured, uncommitted $400 million line of credit (the Uncommitted Credit Facility), with State Street Bank and Trust Company, which matured on September 29, 2022. On September 29, 2022, the Uncommitted Credit Facility was amended to run for a new 364 day period with the line of credit amount remaining unchanged, maturing on September 28, 2023. Under the terms of the Uncommitted Credit Facility, each fund pays interest on the amount a fund borrows. There were no borrowings from either line of credit during the period.
The funds also have access to custodian overdraft facilities. A fund may have utilized the overdraft facility and incurred an interest expense, which is disclosed on each fund’s Statement of Operations, if any. The interest expense is determined based on a negotiated rate above the current Federal Funds Rate.

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 reflect the differing character of certain income items and net realized gains and losses for financial statement and tax purposes, and may result in reclassification among certain capital accounts on the financial statements. The funds may also designate a portion of the amount paid to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for tax purposes.
Permanent book and tax basis differences may result in reclassifications between components of net assets as required. The adjustments will have no impact on net assets or the results of operations.

Opinion on the Financial Statements and Financial Highlights
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio holdings, of Schwab Target 2010 Fund, Schwab Target 2015 Fund, Schwab Target 2020 Fund, Schwab Target 2025 Fund, Schwab Target 2030 Fund, Schwab Target 2035 Fund, Schwab Target 2040 Fund, Schwab Target 2045 Fund, Schwab Target 2050 Fund, Schwab Target 2055 Fund, Schwab Target 2060 Fund, and Schwab Target 2065 Fund (the “Funds”), twelve of the funds constituting Schwab Capital Trust, as of October 31, 2022, the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the three years in the period then ended (excluding Schwab Target 2065 Fund); the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets and the financial highlights for the year then ended and for the period from February 26, 2021 (commencement of operations) through October 31, 2021 for Schwab Target 2065 Fund; and the related notes. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds (excluding Schwab Target 2065 Fund) as of October 31, 2022, and the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the three years in the period then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Schwab Target 2065 Fund as of October 31, 2022, and the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in net assets and financial highlights for the year then ended and for the period from February 26, 2021 (commencement of operations) through October 31, 2021 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. For each of the Funds (excluding Schwab Target 2065 Fund), the financial highlights for each of the two years in the period ended October 31, 2019 were audited by other auditors, whose report, dated December 16, 2019, expressed an unqualified opinion on such financial highlights.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Funds are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2022, by correspondence with the custodian and transfer agent. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Liquidity Risk Management Program (unaudited)
The funds have adopted and implemented a liquidity risk management program (the “program”) as required by Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The funds’ Board of Trustees (the “Board”) has designated the funds’ investment adviser, Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc., dba Schwab Asset Management, as the administrator of the program. Personnel of the investment adviser or its affiliates conduct the day-to-day operation of the program.
Under the program, the investment adviser manages a fund’s liquidity risk, which is the risk that the fund could not meet shareholder redemption requests without significant dilution of remaining shareholders’ interests in the fund. The program is reasonably designed to assess and manage a fund’s liquidity risk, taking into consideration the fund’s investment strategy and the liquidity of its portfolio investments during normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed conditions; its historical redemption history and shareholder concentrations; and its cash holdings and access to other funding sources, including the custodian overdraft facility and lines of credit. The investment adviser’s process of determining the degree of liquidity of each fund’s investments is supported by third-party liquidity assessment vendors.
The funds’ Board reviewed a report at its meeting held on September 19, 2022 prepared by the investment adviser regarding the operation and effectiveness of the program for the period June 1, 2021, through May 31, 2022, which included individual fund liquidity risk metrics. No significant liquidity events impacting any of the funds were noted in the report. In addition, the investment adviser provided its assessment that the program had been operating effectively in managing each fund’s liquidity risk.
Schwab Target Funds | Annual Report
Investment Advisory Agreement Approval
The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), requires that the continuation of a fund’s investment advisory agreement must be specifically approved (1) by the vote of the trustees or by a vote of the shareholders of the fund, and (2) by the vote of a majority of the trustees who are not parties to the investment advisory agreement or “interested persons” of any party (the Independent Trustees), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. In connection with such approvals, the fund’s trustees must request and evaluate, and the investment adviser is required to furnish, such information as may be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the investment advisory agreement.
The Board of Trustees (the Board or the Trustees, as appropriate) calls and holds one or more meetings each year that are dedicated, in whole or in part, to considering whether to renew the investment advisory and administration agreement (the Agreement) between Schwab Capital Trust (the Trust) and Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (dba Schwab Asset Management) (the investment adviser) with respect to the existing funds in the Trust, including Schwab Target 2010 Fund, Schwab Target 2015 Fund, Schwab Target 2020 Fund, Schwab Target 2025 Fund, Schwab Target 2030 Fund, Schwab Target 2035 Fund, Schwab Target 2040 Fund, Schwab Target 2045 Fund, Schwab Target 2050 Fund, Schwab Target 2055 Fund, Schwab Target 2060 Fund and Schwab Target 2065 Fund (the Funds), and to review certain other agreements pursuant to which the investment adviser provides investment advisory services to certain other registered investment companies. In preparation for the meeting(s), the Board requests and reviews a wide variety of materials provided by the investment adviser, including information about the investment adviser’s affiliates, personnel, business goals and priorities, profitability, third-party oversight, corporate structure and operations. As part of the renewal process, the Independent Trustees’ legal counsel, on behalf of the Independent Trustees, sends an information request letter to the investment adviser seeking certain relevant information. The responses by the investment adviser are provided to the Trustees in the Board materials for their review prior to their meeting, and the Trustees are provided with the opportunity to request any additional materials. The Board also receives data provided by an independent provider of investment company data. 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 the Funds’ operations and performance, legal and compliance matters, risk management, portfolio turnover, and sales and marketing activity. In considering the renewal, the Independent Trustees receive advice from Independent Trustees’ legal counsel, including a memorandum regarding the responsibilities of trustees for the
approval of investment advisory agreements. In addition, the Independent Trustees participate in question and answer sessions with representatives of the investment adviser and meet in executive session outside the presence of Fund management.
The Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, considered information specifically relating to the continuance of the Agreement with respect to the Funds at meetings held on May 16, 2022 and June 8, 2022, and approved the renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Funds for an additional one-year term at the meeting on June 8, 2022 called for the purpose of voting on such approval.
The Board’s approval of the continuance of the Agreement with respect to the Funds was based on consideration and evaluation of a variety of specific factors discussed at these meetings and at prior meetings, including:
| 1. | the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to each Fund under the Agreement, including the resources of the investment adviser and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds; |
| 2. | each Fund’s investment performance and how it compared to that of certain other comparable mutual funds and benchmark data; |
| 3. | each Fund’s expenses and how those expenses compared to those of certain other similar mutual funds; |
| 4. | the profitability of the investment adviser and its affiliates, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (Schwab), with respect to each Fund, including both direct and indirect benefits accruing to the investment adviser and its affiliates; and |
| 5. | the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as each 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 the investment adviser to the Funds and the resources of the investment adviser and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds. In this regard, the Trustees evaluated, among other things, the investment adviser’s experience, track record, compliance program, resources dedicated to hiring and retaining skilled personnel and specialized talent, and information security resources. The Trustees also considered information provided by the investment adviser relating to services and support provided with respect to each Fund’s portfolio management team, portfolio strategy, and internal investment guidelines, as well as trading infrastructure, liquidity management, product design and analysis, shareholder communications, securities valuation, fund accounting and custody, and vendor and risk
Schwab Target Funds | Annual Report
oversight. The Trustees also considered investments the investment adviser has made in its infrastructure, including modernizing the investment adviser’s technology and use of data, increasing expertise in key areas (including portfolio management and trade operations), and improving business continuity, cybersecurity, due diligence, risk management processes, and information security programs, which are designed to provide enhanced services to the Funds and their shareholders. The Trustees considered Schwab’s overall financial condition and its reputation as a full service brokerage firm, as well as the wide range of products, services and account features that benefit Fund shareholders who are 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 the investment adviser to the Funds and the resources of the investment adviser 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 such Fund. Specifically, the Trustees considered each Fund’s performance relative to a peer category of other mutual funds and applicable indices/benchmarks, in light of total return and market trends, as well as in consideration of each Fund’s investment style and strategy attributes and disclosures. As part of this review, the Trustees considered the composition of the peer category, selection criteria and the reputation of the independent provider of investment company data who prepared the peer category analysis. In evaluating the performance of each Fund, the Trustees considered the risk profile for such Fund and the appropriateness of the benchmark used to compare the performance of each Fund. The Trustees further considered the level of Fund performance in the context of their review of Fund expenses and the investment adviser’s profitability discussed below and also noted that the Board and a designated committee of the Board review performance throughout the year. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the performance of each Fund supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to such Fund.
Fund Expenses. With respect to each Fund’s expenses, the Trustees considered the rate of compensation called for by the Agreement and each Fund’s operating expense ratio, in each case, in comparison to those of other similar mutual funds, such peer groups and comparisons having been selected and calculated by an independent provider of investment company data. The investment adviser reported to the Board, and the Board took into account, the risk assumed by the investment adviser in the development of the Funds and provision of services as well as the competitive marketplace for financial products. The Trustees considered the effects of the investment adviser’s and Schwab’s practice of waiving certain fees to prevent total annual operating expenses of each Fund
from exceeding a specified cap. The Trustees also considered the investment adviser’s contractual commitment to keep each Fund’s expense cap for so long as it serves as the adviser to the Fund. The Trustees also considered fees charged by the investment adviser to other mutual funds and to other types of accounts, but, with respect to such other types of accounts, accorded less weight to such comparisons due to the different legal, regulatory, compliance and operating features of mutual funds as compared to these other types of accounts, and any differences in the nature and scope of the services the investment adviser provides to these other accounts, and any differences in the market for these types of accounts. The Trustees noted that shareholders of the Funds indirectly pay their pro rata share of the fees and expenses of the underlying funds in which the Funds invest. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the expenses of each Fund are reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to such Fund.
Profitability. The Trustees considered the compensation flowing to the investment adviser and its affiliates, directly or indirectly and reviewed profitability on a pre-tax basis, without regard to distribution expenses. In this connection, the Trustees reviewed management’s profitability analyses. The Trustees also reviewed profitability of the investment adviser relating to the Schwab fund complex as a whole, noting the benefits to Fund shareholders of being part of the Schwab fund complex, including the allocations of certain fixed costs across the Funds and other funds in the complex. The Trustees also considered any other benefits derived by the investment adviser from its relationship with the Funds, such as whether, by virtue of its management of the Funds, the investment adviser obtains investment information or other research resources that aid it in providing advisory services to other clients. Also, because each Fund invests a portion of its assets in other funds within the Schwab fund complex, the Trustees considered the indirect benefits to the investment adviser from such Fund’s investments in other underlying funds managed by the investment adviser. The Trustees considered whether the 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 the investment adviser and its affiliates. The Trustees noted that the investment adviser continues to invest substantial sums in its business in order to provide enhanced research capabilities, services and systems to benefit the Funds. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the profitability of the investment adviser with respect to each Fund is reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to such Fund.
Economies of Scale. Although the Trustees recognized the difficulty of determining economies of scale with precision, the Trustees considered the potential existence of any economies of scale and whether those are passed along to a Fund’s shareholders through (i) the enhancement of services provided
Schwab Target Funds | Annual Report
to the Funds in return for fees paid, including through investments by the investment adviser in its infrastructure, including modernizing the investment adviser’s technology and use of data, increasing expertise and capabilities in key areas (including portfolio and trade operations), and improving business continuity, cybersecurity, due diligence and information security programs, which are designed to provide enhanced services to the Funds and their shareholders; (ii) graduated investment advisory fee schedules or unitary fee structures, fee waivers, or expense caps by the investment adviser and its affiliates for those funds in the Schwab fund complex with such features; and (iii) pricing a fund to scale and keeping overall expenses down as the fund grows. The Trustees acknowledged that the investment adviser has shared any economies of scale with the Funds by investing in the investment adviser’s infrastructure, as discussed above, over time and that the investment adviser’s internal costs of providing investment management, technology, administrative, legal and compliance services to the Funds continue to increase as a result of regulatory or other developments. The
Trustees considered that the investment adviser and its affiliates employ contractual expense caps to protect shareholders from high fees, including for example, when fund assets are relatively small. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that each Fund obtains reasonable benefits from economies of scale.
In the course of their deliberations, the Trustees may have accorded different weights to various factors and 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 the services provided and the related expenses borne by the investment adviser and its affiliates and such other matters as the Trustees considered to be relevant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment.

Schwab Target Funds | Annual Report
asset allocation The practice of dividing a portfolio among different asset classes, with each asset class assigned a particular percentage.
asset class A group of securities with similar structure and basic characteristics. Stocks, bonds and cash are the three main examples of asset classes.
Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index An index that is a broad-based benchmark measuring the performance of the U.S. investment grade, taxable bond market, including U.S. Treasuries, government-related and corporate bonds, mortgage pass-through securities, commercial mortgage-backed securities, and asset-backed securities that are publicly available for sale in the United States. To be eligible for inclusion in the index, securities must be fixed rate, non-convertible, U.S. dollar-denominated with at least $300 million or more of outstanding face value and have one or more years remaining to maturity. The index excludes certain types of securities, including tax-exempt state and local government series bonds, structured notes embedded with swaps or other special features, private placements, floating rate securities, inflation-linked bonds and Eurobonds. The index is market capitalization weighted and the securities in the index are updated on the last business day of each month.
Bloomberg US Government/Credit 1–5 Year Index An index that is a broad-based benchmark measuring the performance of U.S. dollar-denominated U.S. Treasury bonds, government related bonds (i.e., U.S. and non-U.S. agencies, sovereign, quasi-sovereign, supranational and local authority debt) and investment grade U.S. corporate bonds that have a remaining maturity of greater than or equal to one year and less than five years. To be eligible for inclusion in the index, securities must be fixed rate, non-convertible, U.S. dollar-denominated with at least $300 million or more of outstanding face value and have a remaining maturity greater than or equal to one year and less than five years. The index excludes certain types of securities, including, bonds with equity type features (e.g., warrants, convertibles and preferreds), tax-exempt municipal securities, inflation-linked bonds, floating rate issues, strips, private placements, U.S. dollar-denominated 25 and 50 par retail bonds, structured notes and pass-through certificates. The index is market capitalization weighted and the securities in the index are updated on the last business day of each month.
Bloomberg US Treasury Bills 1–3 Month Index An index that includes all publicly issued zero-coupon U.S. Treasury Bills that have a remaining maturity of less than 3 months but more than 1 month, are rated investment grade and have $300 million or more of outstanding face value. It excludes zero-coupon STRIPS.
Bloomberg US Treasury Inflation-Linked Bond Index (Series-L) An index which includes all publicly-issued U.S. Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS) that have at least one year remaining to maturity, are rated investment grade and have $500 million or more of outstanding face value. The TIPS in the index must be denominated in U.S. dollars and must be fixed-rate and non-convertible. The index is market capitalization weighted and the TIPS in the index are updated on the last business day of each month. TIPS are publicly issued, dollar denominated U.S. Government securities issued by the U.S. Treasury that have principal and interest payments linked to an official inflation measure (as measured by the Consumer Price Index, or CPI) and their payments are supported by the full faith and credit of the United States.
bond A security representing a loan from the investor to the issuer. A bond typically pays interest at a fixed rate (the coupon rate) until a specified date (the maturity date), at which time the issuer returns the money borrowed (principal or face value) to the bondholder. Because of their structure, bonds are sometimes called “fixed-income securities” or “debt securities.”
An individual bond is subject to the credit risk of the issuer. Changes in interest rates can affect a bond’s market value prior to call or maturity. There is no guarantee that a bond’s yield to call or maturity will provide a positive return over the rate of inflation.
bond fund A bond fund is subject to the same credit, interest rate, and inflation risks as bonds. In addition, a bond fund incurs ongoing fees and expenses. A bond fund’s net asset value will fluctuate with the price of the underlying bonds and the portfolio turnover activity; return of principal is not guaranteed.
cap, capitalization See “market cap.”
capital gain, capital loss the difference between the amount paid for an investment and its value at a later time. If the investment has been sold, the capital gain or loss is considered a realized gain or loss. If the investment is still held, the capital gain or loss is considered unrealized appreciation or depreciation.
Dow Jones U.S. Total Stock Market Index An index which includes all U.S. equity issues with readily available prices. The index is a float-adjusted market capitalization weighted index that reflects the shares of securities actually available to investors in the marketplace.
expense ratio The amount that is taken from a mutual fund’s assets each year to cover the fund’s operating expenses. An expense ratio of 0.50% means that a fund’s expenses amount to half of one percent of its average net assets a year.
FTSE EPRA Nareit Global Index (Net) An index that provides a diverse representation of publicly traded equity real estate investment trusts (REITs) and listed property companies worldwide. The index constituents are free-float adjusted, and screened on liquidity, size and revenue. The index is comprised of countries in developed and emerging markets. The Net of Tax Index is calculated based on the maximum withholding tax rates applicable to dividends received by institutional investors who are not resident in the same country as the remitting company and who do not benefit from double taxation treaties.
FTSE non-US Dollar World Government Bond Index A market capitalization index that measures the total rate of return performance for the government bonds of 22 countries, excluding the U.S., with a remaining maturity of at least 1 year.
market cap, market capitalization The value of a company as determined by the total value of all shares of its stock outstanding.
MSCI EAFE Index (Net) A free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed markets in Europe, Australasia, and the Far East. 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.
Schwab Target Funds | Annual Report
MSCI Emerging Markets Index (Net) A free float-adjusted market capitalization weighted index that is designed to measure equity market performance in the global emerging markets. This series approximates the minimum possible dividend reinvestment. The 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 mutual fund. NAV is calculated by taking the fund’s total assets, subtracting liabilities, and dividing by the number of shares outstanding.
outstanding shares, shares outstanding When speaking of a company or mutual fund, indicates all shares currently held by investors.
Russell 1000 Growth Index An index that measures the performance of those Russell 1000 Index companies with higher price-to-book ratios and higher forecasted growth values.
Russell 1000 Index An index that measures the performance of the 1,000 largest companies in the Russell 3000 Index, and represents approximately 92% of the total market capitalization of the Russell 3000 Index. The Russell 3000 Index measures the performance of the largest 3,000 U.S. companies representing approximately 98% of the investable U.S. equity market.
Russell 1000 Value Index An index that measures the performance of the large-cap value segment of the U.S. equity universe. It includes those Russell 1000 Index companies with lower price-to-book ratios and lower expected growth values.
Russell 2000 Index An index that measures the performance of the 2,000 smallest companies in the Russell 3000 Index. The Russell 3000 Index measures the performance of the largest 3,000 U.S. companies representing approximately 98% of the investable U.S. equity market.
Russell Midcap Index An index that measures the performance of the mid-cap segment of the U.S. equity universe. The Russell Midcap Index is a subset of the Russell 1000 Index. It includes approximately 800 of the smallest securities based on a combination of their market cap and current index membership.
