From the President

Jonathan de St. Paer
President of Charles Schwab
Investment Management, Inc.
and the funds covered
in this report.

Dear Shareholder,

The six-month reporting period ended February 29, 2020, ushered in a time of uncertainty that most Americans haven’t seen in their lifetimes. Up until the last week of February, U.S. stock market performance was strong, with the longest bull market cycle in history continuing and major equity indices hitting new highs. But then, COVID-19—whose effects had seemed mainly confined to China—began to spread quickly around the world, affecting millions of people and sending stock markets reeling. As February 2020 drew to a close, U.S. stocks experienced their worst week since the 2008 financial crisis. In this period, the S&P 500^® Index, a bellwether for the overall U.S. stock market, dropped more than 10% in six days and global markets saw similar sell-offs. For the six-month reporting period ended February 29, 2020, the S&P 500^® Index returned 1.9%, erasing double-digit gains from earlier in the period. The MSCI EAFE^® Index (Net)*, a broad measure of developed international equity performance, returned -0.9% over the same period.

We can’t know what the full human impact of the COVID-19 outbreak will be or how long the economic impact will last. The sudden health crisis and U.S. market decline have understandably rattled investors, leading many to seek the perceived safety of asset classes such as cash. Market volatility and declines can be difficult to withstand, and can engender strong emotional reactions, such as selling out of fear or staying on the sidelines. In the longer-term, this can often make the investing outcomes worse. At times like these it’s important to remember that all market cycles, no matter how long—and whether up or down—ultimately come to an end.

At Charles Schwab Investment Management, we are committed to serving our clients through this challenging time. We believe that maintaining a long-term investing plan and a portfolio with exposure to a mix of asset classes that perform differently over time is one of the best ways to weather the inevitable ups and downs that come with investing. While market volatility and uncertainty can be unsettling, we believe that having a diversified portfolio and investing plan to rely on can make it easier for investors to achieve their long-term goals, even during difficult times like these.

Thank you for investing with Charles Schwab Investment Management. For more information about the Schwab International Equity ETFs, please continue reading this report. In addition, you can find further details about these funds by visiting our website at www.schwabfunds.com. We are also happy to hear from you at 1-877-824-5615.

Sincerely,

“ At Charles Schwab Investment Management, we are committed to serving our clients through this challenging time.”

The Investment Environment

Up until the final week of the six-month reporting period ended February 29, 2020, international equity markets were mostly lower as economic momentum continued to slow, dampened by uncertainties from several fronts, including trade, inflation, and geopolitical concerns. In the final week of the reporting period, however, the expanding COVID-19 outbreak sent ripples through every corner of the global economy, driving a global selloff that sent major market indices into bear-market territory resulting in the fastest stock market correction (commonly defined as a decline of 10% or more) in the U.S. on record, more than erasing 2020’s strong gains. For the reporting period, the MSCI EAFE^® Index (Net)*, a broad measure of developed international equity performance, returned -0.91%, while the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (Net)* returned 2.93%. For comparison, the S&P 500^® Index, a bellwether for the overall U.S. stock market, returned 1.92% for the reporting period.

The Investment Environment (continued)

Japan’s economy shrank over the reporting period, particularly during the final quarter of 2019 as a sales tax increase took effect and business spending tumbled. Several Asian economies, including emerging market countries such as China and India, slowed but still outpaced many developed economies. China’s economy slowed amid trade pressure from the U.S. and sluggish demand from home and abroad, while India’s economy was dampened primarily as a result of a fall in factory output and exports and a slowdown in investment.

In response to the economic environment, to bolster growth, and to help ensure stability given ongoing trade tensions, a number of central banks reduced their policy rates, including the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed), while others maintained low—and for some international central banks, negative—interest rates. In the U.S., amid growing signs of global economic weakness that threatened to dampen U.S. economic growth, along with continued low inflation and weakness in manufacturing—and following one 0.25% interest rate cut in July—the Fed enacted two interest rate cuts during the period—in September and October. The federal funds rate ended the reporting period in a range of 1.50% to 1.75%. The European Central Bank held interest rates steady, unchanged since March 2016. The Bank of Japan upheld its short-term interest rate target of –0.1%, also unchanged since 2016. The Bank of England maintained its key official bank rate at 0.75%, where it has remained since August 2018. Central banks in key emerging market economies—including China, India, Mexico, and Thailand—lowered their policy rates in response to inflation and trade-related pressures. The changing interest rate landscape particularly towards the end of the period, resulted in significant currency volatility and, as a result, the U.S. dollar suffered.

COVID-19, first reported in China at the end of December and rapidly spreading to other countries by February, took a dramatic toll on global markets, disrupting supply chains, lowering earnings expectations, and spooking investors. Over the course of the final six trading days of the reporting period, the S&P 500^® Index fell over 10% from its peak, wiping out trillions in market value. The market drop was broadly felt. Fed Chairman Jerome Powell signaled that the Fed was prepared to cut interest rates to help protect the economy from the widening global slowdown. (Following the end of the reporting period, at the beginning of March, the Fed cut the federal funds rate by 0.50%. In mid-March, the Fed lowered the federal funds rate again, cutting it by 1.00% to a range of 0.00% to 0.25%.)

Fund Expenses (Unaudited)

Examples for a $1,000 Investment

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

The expense examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing cost (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare this cost with the ongoing cost of investing in other mutual funds. These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested for six months beginning September 1, 2019 and held through February 29, 2020.

Actual Return lines in the table below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use this information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value ÷ $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for your fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period.”

Hypothetical Return lines in the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed return of 5% per year before expenses. Because the return used is not an actual return, it may not be used to estimate the actual ending account value or expenses you paid for the period.

You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in a fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only, and do not reflect any transactional costs, including any brokerage commissions you may pay when purchasing or selling shares of a fund. Therefore, the hypothetical return lines of the table are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Hypothetical 5% Return	0.13%	$1,000.00	$1,024.25	$0.65

¹	Based on the most recent six-month expense ratio; may differ from the expense ratio provided in the Financial Highlights.
²	Expenses for each fund are equal to its annualized expense ratio, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 182 days of the period, and divided by 366 days of the fiscal year.
³	Effective February 25, 2020, the management fee for the Schwab International Small-Cap Equity ETF and Schwab Emerging Markets Equity ETF was reduced to 0.11%. If the fund expense changes had been in place throughout the entire most recent fiscal half-year the expenses paid during period under the actual return and hypothetical 5% return example would have been the following; For Schwab International Small-Cap Equity ETF, $0.55 and $0.55, respectively, for Schwab Emerging Markets Equity ETF, $0.55 and $0.55, respectively.

1. Business Structure of the Funds:

Each of the funds in this report is a series of Schwab Strategic Trust (the trust), a no-load, open-end management investment company. The trust is organized as a Delaware statutory trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act). The list below shows all the operational funds in the trust as of the end of the period, including the funds discussed in this report, which are highlighted:

The funds issue and redeem shares at their net asset value per share (NAV) only in large blocks of shares, typically 100,000 shares or more (Creation Units). These transactions are usually in exchange for a basket of securities and/or an amount of cash. As a practical matter, only institutional investors who have entered into an authorized participant agreement purchase or redeem Creation Units. Except when aggregated in Creation Units, shares of the funds are not redeemable securities.

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

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

2. Significant Accounting Policies:

The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the funds use in their preparation of financial statements. The funds follow the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (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 other investment companies (underlying funds). For specific investments in underlying funds, please refer to the complete schedule of portfolio holdings on Form N-CSR(S) for this reporting period, which is filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). For more information about the underlying funds’ operations and policies, please refer to those funds’ semiannual and annual reports, which are filed with the SEC.

(a) Security Valuation:

Under procedures approved by the funds’ Board of Trustees (the Board), the investment adviser has formed a Pricing Committee to administer the pricing and valuation of portfolio securities and other assets and to ensure that prices used for internal purposes or provided by third parties reasonably reflect fair market value. Among other things, these procedures allow the funds to utilize independent pricing services, quotations from securities and financial instrument dealers and other market sources to determine fair value.

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

• Securities traded on an exchange or over-the-counter: Traded securities are valued at the closing value for the day, or, on days when no closing value has been reported, at 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.

₃₅

Financial Notes, unaudited (continued)

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):

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

• Futures contracts: Futures contracts are valued at their settlement prices as of the close of their exchanges.

• Underlying funds: Mutual funds are valued at their respective NAVs.

In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures under GAAP, the funds disclose the fair value of their investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the significant inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (Level 3 measurements). If inputs used to measure the financial instruments fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the valuation. If the funds determine that either the volume and/or level of activity for an asset or liability has significantly decreased (from normal conditions for that asset or liability) or price quotations or observable inputs are not associated with orderly transactions, increased analysis and management judgment will be required to estimate fair value.

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

• Level 1—quoted prices in active markets for identical securities—Investments whose values are based on quoted market prices in active markets, and whose values are therefore classified as Level 1 prices, include active listed equities 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 specific investments held by an underlying fund.

• Level 2—other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)—Investments that trade in markets that are not considered to be active, but whose values are based on quoted market prices, dealer quotations or valuations provided by alternative pricing sources supported by observable inputs are classified as Level 2 prices. These generally include U.S. government and sovereign obligations, most government agency securities, investment-grade corporate bonds, certain mortgage products, less liquid listed equities, and state, municipal and provincial obligations.

• Level 3—significant unobservable inputs (including the funds’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)—Investments whose values are classified as Level 3 prices have significant unobservable inputs, as they may trade infrequently or not at all. When observable prices are not available for these securities, the funds use one or more valuation techniques for which sufficient and reliable data is available. The inputs used by the funds in estimating the value of Level 3 prices may include the original transaction price, quoted prices for similar securities or assets in active markets, completed or pending third-party transactions in the underlying investment or comparable issuers, and changes in financial ratios or cash flows. Level 3 prices may also be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, with the amount of such discount estimated by the funds in the absence of market information. Assumptions used by the funds due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting fair value and therefore the funds’ results of operations.

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

The levels associated with valuing the funds’ investments as of February 29, 2020 are disclosed in the Condensed Portfolio Holdings.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):

vary from one contract to another. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or received by a fund depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the futures contract and are accounted for as unrealized appreciation or depreciation until the contract is closed, at which time the gains or losses are realized. Futures contracts are traded publicly on exchanges, and their market value may change daily.

Securities Lending: Under the trust’s Securities Lending Program, a fund (lender) may make short-term loans of its securities to another party (borrower) to generate additional revenue for the fund. The borrower pledges collateral in the form of cash, securities issued or fully guaranteed by the U.S. government or foreign governments, or letters of credit issued by a bank. Collateral at the individual loan level is required to be maintained on a daily marked-to-market basis in an amount at least equal to the current value of the securities loaned. The lending agent provides a fund with indemnification against borrower default (the borrower fails to return the security on loan) reducing the risk of loss as a result of default. The cash collateral of securities loaned is currently invested in money market portfolios operating under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act. Each fund bears the risk of loss with respect to the investment of cash collateral. The terms of the securities lending agreement allow the funds 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 market value of securities loaned will not at any time exceed one-third of the total assets of a fund, including collateral received from the loan. Securities lending fees paid to the unaffiliated lending agent start at 10% of gross lending revenue, with subsequent breakpoints to a low of 7.5%. 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 Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (CSIM or the investment adviser) or any affiliate of CSIM.

As of February 29, 2020, the funds 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 February 29, 2020, if any, are disclosed in each fund’s Condensed Portfolio Holdings. The value of the securities on loan and the investment of cash collateral are also disclosed in each fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

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 on the Statement of Operations. The funds do not isolate the portion of the fluctuations on investments resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rates from the fluctuations in market prices of investments held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.

Gains realized by the funds on the sale of securities in certain foreign countries may be subject to non-U.S. taxes. In those instances, the funds record a liability based on unrealized gains to provide for potential non-U.S. taxes payable upon the sale of these securities.

When a fund closes out a futures contract position, it calculates the difference between the value of the position at the beginning and at the end of the contract, and records a realized gain or loss accordingly.

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 day they learn of the ex-dividend date. Any distributions from underlying funds are recorded in accordance with the character of the distributions as designated by the underlying funds.

Income received from foreign sources may result in withholding tax. Withholding taxes are accrued at the same time as the related income if the tax rate is fixed and known, unless a tax withheld is reclaimable from the local tax authorities in which case it is recorded as receivable. If the tax rate is not known or estimable, such expense or reclaim receivable is recorded when the net proceeds are received.

The funds 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.

(e) Expenses:

Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement (Advisory Agreement) between CSIM 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.

(f) Distributions to Shareholders:

The funds make distributions from net investment income, if any, semiannually. The funds generally make distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, once a year.

(g) Accounting Estimates:

The accounting policies described in this report conform to GAAP. Notwithstanding this, shareholders should understand that in order to follow these principles, fund management has to make estimates and assumptions that affect the information reported in the financial statements. It’s possible that once the results are known, they may turn out to be different from these estimates and these differences may be material.

(h) Federal Income Taxes:

The funds intend to meet federal income and excise tax requirements for regulated investment companies 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 payable as of February 29, 2020, 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.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):

(k) Recent Accounting Standards:

In August 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820)” (ASU 2018-13) which modifies the disclosure requirements for fair value measurement by removing, modifying, or adding certain disclosures. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those annual periods. The funds are permitted to early adopt any removed or modified disclosures upon issuance of this update and delay adoption of the additional disclosures until their effective date. The funds have early adopted certain removed or modified disclosures, including the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and the policy for timing of transfers between levels upon issuance of ASU 2018-13, and have delayed adoption of the additional disclosures until their effective date. At this time, management is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of the additional disclosures will have on the funds’ financial statements.

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 or 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.

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 their indexing strategies, the funds do not take steps to reduce market exposure or to lessen the effects of a declining market. In addition, because of the funds’ expenses, the funds’ performance may be below that of their respective index.

Equity Risk. The prices of equity securities rise and fall daily. These price movements may result from factors affecting individual companies, industries or the securities market as a whole. In addition, equity markets tend to move in cycles, which may cause stock prices to fall over short or extended periods of time.

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. Certain funds invest in large-cap company stocks. 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. Certain funds invest in mid-cap company stocks. 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. Certain funds invest in small-cap company stocks. 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. 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 (ADRs), Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs), and European Depositary Receipts (EDRs), which are receipts issued by U.S. and foreign banks that represent shares of foreign-based corporations. Investment in ADRs, GDRs and EDRs may be less liquid than the underlying shares in their primary trading market and GDRs, many of which are issued by companies in

3. Risk Factors (continued):

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.

Emerging Markets Risk. Certain funds invest in emerging markets. Emerging market countries may be more likely to experience political turmoil or rapid changes in market or economic conditions than more developed countries. Emerging market countries often have less uniformity in accounting and reporting requirements and greater risk associated with the custody of securities. In addition, the financial stability of issuers (including governments) in emerging market countries may be more precarious than in 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.

Sampling Index Tracking Risk. Each fund uses statistical sampling techniques, and as a result, a fund may not fully replicate its respective index and may hold securities not included in the index. As a result, a fund is subject to the risk that the investment adviser’s investment management strategy, the implementation of which is subject to a number of constraints, may not produce the intended results. Because each fund utilizes a sampling approach, it may not track the return of its respective index as well as it would if a fund purchased all of the securities in its index.

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.

Derivatives Risk. Each fund may invest in derivative instruments. The principal types of derivatives a fund may use are futures contracts. A futures contract is an agreement to buy or sell a financial instrument at a specific price on a specific day. A fund’s use of derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. Certain of these risks, such as market risk and liquidity risk, are discussed elsewhere in this section. A fund’s use of derivatives is also subject to leverage risk, credit risk, lack of availability risk, valuation risk, correlation risk and tax risk. Leverage risk is the risk that use of derivatives may magnify the effect of any decrease or increase in the value of the fund’s portfolio securities. Credit risk is the risk that the counterparty to a derivative transaction may not fulfill its contractual obligations. Lack of availability risk is the risk that suitable derivative transactions may not be available in all circumstances for risk management or other purposes. Valuation risk is the risk that a particular derivative may be valued incorrectly. Correlation risk is the risk that changes in the value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index. Tax risk is the risk that the use of derivatives may cause a fund to realize higher amounts of short-term capital gains. A fund’s use of derivatives could reduce the fund’s performance, increase the fund’s volatility, and cause the fund to lose more than the initial amount invested. Furthermore, the use of derivatives subject to regulation by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) could cause the fund to become a commodity pool, which would require the fund to comply with certain CFTC rules.

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.

Concentration Risk. To the extent that a fund’s or an index’s portfolio is concentrated in the securities of issuers in a particular market, industry, group of industries, sector, 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 Trading Risk. Although fund shares are listed on national securities exchanges, there can be no assurance that an active trading market for fund shares will develop or be maintained. If an active market is not maintained, investors may find it difficult to buy or sell fund shares.

Shares of the Fund May Trade at Prices Other Than NAV. Fund shares may be bought and sold in the secondary market at market prices. Although it is expected that the market price of the shares of a fund will approximate the fund’s NAV, there may be times when the market price and the NAV vary significantly. An investor may pay more than NAV when buying shares of a fund in the secondary market, and an investor may receive less than NAV when selling those shares in the secondary market. The market price of fund shares may deviate, sometimes significantly, from NAV during periods of market volatility or market disruption, or as a result of other factors impacting foreign securities, including liquidity, irregular trading activity and timing differences between foreign markets where securities trade and the secondary market where fund shares are sold.

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

4. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions:

Investment Adviser

CSIM, a wholly owned subsidiary of The Charles Schwab Corporation, serves as each fund’s investment adviser pursuant to the Advisory Agreement between CSIM and the trust.

For its advisory services to the funds, CSIM is entitled to receive an annual management fee, payable monthly, based on a percentage of each fund’s average daily net assets as follows:

Schwab International Equity ETF	Schwab International Small-Cap Equity ETF	Schwab Emerging Markets Equity ETF
0.06%	0.11%*	0.11%*

Other Affiliated Transactions

The professional fees related to foreign withholding tax claims discussed in financial note 2 were non-routine expenses. The investment adviser agreed to pay these professional fees, which are subject to reimbursement by the funds to the extent the funds are able to successfully recover taxes withheld in the future.

As of February 29, 2020, the balance of professional fees related to foreign withholding tax subject to future reimbursement by the fund to the investment adviser was $93,919 for Schwab International Equity ETF, $4,324 for Schwab International Small-Cap Equity ETF and $17,966 for Schwab Emerging Markets Equity ETF. There were no professional fees incurred by the funds and no reimbursements made by the funds to the investment adviser during the period ended February 29, 2020.

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.

4. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions (continued):

Interfund Transactions

The funds may engage in direct transactions with certain other funds in the Fund Complex when permitted by applicable law. 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 February 29, 2020, each fund’s total aggregate security transactions with other funds in the Fund Complex as well as any realized gains (losses) were as follows:

	Total Aggregate Transactions	Realized Gains (Losses)
Schwab International Equity ETF	$179,916,610	($30,309,371)
Schwab International Small-Cap Equity ETF	98,650,448	5,693,415
Schwab Emerging Markets Equity ETF	91,437,726	(19,850,601)

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 of the Board. The funds had no interfund borrowing or lending activity during the period.

5. Other Service Providers:

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

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

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

6. Board of Trustees:

The Board may include people who are officers and/or directors of CSIM or its affiliates. Federal securities law limits the percentage of such “interested persons” who may serve on a trust’s board, and the trust was in compliance with these limitations throughout the report period. The trust does not pay any interested or non-interested trustees (independent trustees). The independent trustees are paid by CSIM. For information regarding the trustees, please refer to the Trustees and Officers table at the end of this report.

7. Borrowing from Banks:

During the period, the funds were participants with other funds in the Fund Complex in a joint, syndicated, committed $750 million line of credit (the Syndicated Credit Facility), which matured on October 3, 2019. On October 3, 2019, the Syndicated Credit Facility was amended to run for a new 364 day period with the line of credit amount remaining unchanged, maturing on October 1, 2020. Under the terms of the Syndicated Credit Facility, in addition to CSIM paying the interest charged on any borrowings by a fund, CSIM 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 $500 million line of credit (the Uncommitted Credit Facility), with State Street, which matured on November 29, 2019. On November 29, 2019, the Uncommitted Credit Facility was amended to run for a new 364 day period, maturing on November 27, 2020. Under the terms of the Uncommitted Credit Facility, CSIM 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 CSIM. The interest expense is determined based on a negotiated rate above the current Federal Funds Rate.

8. Derivatives:

Certain funds entered into equity index futures contracts during the report period. The funds invested in futures contracts to equitize available cash. The current value and variation margin for futures contracts held at February 29, 2020 are presented on the Condensed Portfolio Holdings and Statement of Assets and Liabilities, respectively. The net realized and change in unrealized gains (losses) on futures contracts are presented on the Statement of Operations. Refer to financial note 2(b) for the funds’ accounting policies with respect to futures contracts and financial note 3 for disclosures concerning the risks of investing in futures contracts. During the period ended February 29, 2020, the month-end average notional amounts of futures contracts held by the funds and the month-end average number of contracts held were as follows:

	Notional Amounts	Number of Contracts
Schwab International Equity ETF	$77,755,688	810
Schwab International Small-Cap Equity ETF	10,733,587	112
Schwab Emerging Markets Equity ETF	13,388,748	259

9. Purchases and Sales of Investment Securities:

For the period ended February 29, 2020, purchases and sales of securities (excluding in-kind transactions and short-term obligations) were as follows:

	Purchases of Securities	Sales of Securities
Schwab International Equity ETF	$608,127,554	$719,370,938
Schwab International Small-Cap Equity ETF	208,817,210	230,675,222
Schwab Emerging Markets Equity ETF	768,175,679	591,294,637

10. In-Kind Transactions:

The consideration for the purchase of Creation Units of a fund often consists of the in-kind deposit of a designated portfolio of equity securities, which constitutes an optimized representation of the securities involved in a relevant fund’s underlying index, and an amount of cash. Investors purchasing and redeeming Creation Units are subject to a standard creation transaction fee and a standard redemption transaction fee paid to the custodian to offset transfer and other transaction costs associated with the issuance and redemption of Creation Units. Purchasers and redeemers of Creation Units for cash are subject to an additional variable charge paid to the fund that will offset the transaction costs to the fund of buying or selling portfolio securities. In addition, purchasers and redeemers of shares in Creation Units are responsible for payment of the costs of transferring securities to or out of the fund. From time to time, CSIM may cover the cost of any transaction fees when believed to be in the best interests of a fund.

The in-kind transactions for the period ended February 29, 2020, were as follows:

	In-Kind Purchases of Securities	In-Kind Sales of Securities
Schwab International Equity ETF	$1,388,575,796	$—
Schwab International Small-Cap Equity ETF	145,883,178	—
Schwab Emerging Markets Equity ETF	113,721,680	—

For the period ended February 29, 2020, where applicable, the funds realized net capital gains or losses resulting from in-kind redemptions of Creation Units. Because such gains or losses are not taxable to the funds and are not distributed to existing fund shareholders, the gains or losses are reclassified from accumulated net realized gains or losses to capital received from investors at the end of the funds’ tax year. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset values per share. The net realized in-kind gains or losses for the period ended February 29, 2020 are disclosed in the funds’ Statements of Operations, if any.

Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation)	$243,883,860	($139,977,329)	$375,015,626

Capital loss carryforwards may be used to offset future realized capital gains for federal income tax purposes. As of August 31, 2019, the funds had capital loss carryforwards available to offset future net capital gains before the expiration dates as follows:

Expiration Date	Schwab International Equity ETF	Schwab International Small-Cap Equity ETF	Schwab Emerging Markets Equity ETF
No expiration	$543,635,769	$121,167,521	$340,568,982
Total	$543,635,769	$121,167,521	$340,568,982

The tax-basis components of distributions and components of distributable earnings on a tax basis are finalized at fiscal year-end; accordingly, tax basis balances have not been determined as of February 29, 2020. The tax-basis components of distributions paid during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019 were as follows:

	Schwab International Equity ETF	Schwab International Small-Cap Equity ETF	Schwab Emerging Markets Equity ETF
Ordinary income	$592,259,760	$59,504,600	$160,604,080

As of August 31, 2019, 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 August 31, 2019, the funds did not incur any interest or penalties.

12. 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.

Investment Advisory Agreement Approval

The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, 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.

At a meeting held on February 24, 2020, the Board of Trustees (the Board or the Trustees, as appropriate), including a majority of the Independent Trustees, considered information specifically relating to its consideration of the approval of an amendment to the amended and restated investment advisory agreement (the Amended Agreement) between Schwab Strategic Trust (the Trust) and Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (CSIM) with respect to the existing funds in the Trust, including Schwab International Small-Cap Equity

ETF and Schwab Emerging Markets Equity ETF (the Funds) to reflect a reduction to the rate paid by the Trust to CSIM as compensation for CSIM’s services rendered to the Funds. The Board reviewed materials provided by CSIM relating to this change (including a representation by CSIM that the change will not result in any reduction in the nature and level of services provided to the Funds and other series by CSIM) and also took into account the information that the Board reviewed and the conclusions it reached at its June 4, 2019 meeting in connection with the approval of the continuation of CSIM as investment adviser to the Funds and other series of the Trust.

Based on the Trustees’ deliberation and their evaluation of the information described above, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, approved the amendment to the Amended Agreement with respect to the Funds and concluded that the compensation payable by the Funds to CSIM under the amendment to the Amended Agreement is fair and reasonable in light of the services CSIM renders to (and the expenses it bears relating to) the Funds and such other matters as the Trustees considered to be relevant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment.

median market cap The midpoint of the range of market caps of the stocks held by a fund. There are different ways of calculating median market cap. With a simple median, half of the stocks in the fund’s portfolio would be larger than the median, and half would be smaller. With a weighted median (the type that is calculated for these funds), half of the fund’s assets are invested in stocks that are larger than the median market cap, and half in stocks that are smaller.

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 fund. NAV is calculated by taking the fund’s total assets, subtracting liabilities, and dividing by the number of shares outstanding.

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

rights and warrants Rights and warrants are types of securities that entitle the holder to purchase a proportionate amount of common stock at a specified price for a specific period of time. Rights allow a shareholder to buy more shares directly from the company, usually at a price somewhat lower than the current market price of the outstanding shares. Warrants are usually issued with bonds and preferred stock. Rights and warrants can trade on the market separately from the company’s stock. The prices of rights and warrants do not necessarily move parallel to the prices of the underlying common stock. Rights usually expire within a few weeks of issuance, while warrants may not expire for several years. If a right or warrant is not exercised within the specified time period, it will become worthless and a fund will lose the purchase price it paid for the right or warrant and the right to purchase the underlying security.

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.

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

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

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

stock A share of ownership, or equity, in the issuing company.

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

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

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

Shares are bought and sold at market price, which may be higher or lower than the net asset value (NAV). Brokerage commissions will reduce returns.

ETF performance must be shown based on both a market price and NAV basis. The fund’s per share NAV is the value of one share of the fund. NAV is calculated by taking the fund’s total assets (including the market value of securities owned), subtracting liabilities, and dividing by the number of shares outstanding. The NAV Return is based on the NAV of the fund, and the Market Price Return is based on the market price per share of the fund. The price used to calculate market return (Market Price) is determined using the Official Closing Price on the primary stock exchange (generally, 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) and may not represent the returns you would receive if shares were traded at other times. Market Price and NAV returns assume that dividends and capital gain distributions have been reinvested in the fund at Market Price and NAV, respectively.

From the President

Jonathan de St. Paer
President of Charles Schwab
Investment Management, Inc.
and the funds covered
in this report.

Dear Shareholder,

The six-month reporting period ended February 29, 2020, ushered in a time of uncertainty that most Americans haven’t seen in their lifetimes. Up until the last week of February, U.S. stock market performance was strong, with the longest bull market cycle in history continuing and major equity indices hitting new highs. But then, COVID-19—whose effects had seemed mainly confined to China—began to spread quickly around the world, affecting millions of people and sending stock markets reeling. As February 2020 drew to a close, U.S. stocks experienced their worst week since the 2008 financial crisis. In this period, the S&P 500^® Index, a bellwether for the overall U.S. stock market, dropped more than 10% in six days. For the six-month reporting period ended February 29, 2020, the S&P 500^® Index returned 1.9%, erasing double-digit gains from earlier in the period.

Thank you for investing with Charles Schwab Investment Management. For more information about the Schwab U.S. Equity ETFs, please continue reading this report.

The Investment Environment

Up until the final week of the six-month reporting period ended February 29, 2020, U.S. equity markets were positive, with major market indices hitting new highs in mid-February. In the final week of the reporting period, however, the expanding COVID-19 outbreak sent ripples through every corner of the global economy, driving a global selloff that sent major market indices into bear-market territory resulting in the fastest stock market correction (commonly defined as a decline of 10% or more) in the U.S. on record, more than erasing 2020’s strong gains. For the reporting period, the S&P 500^® Index, a bellwether for the overall U.S. stock market, returned 1.92%. Mid- and small-cap stocks were weaker, with the Dow Jones U.S. Mid-Cap Total Stock Market Index and the Russell 2000^® Index returning -1.86% and -0.52%, respectively. Growth stocks outperformed value. Markets outside the U.S. were mixed over the reporting period. The MSCI EAFE^® Index (Net)*, a broad measure of developed international equity performance, returned -0.91%, while the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (Net)* returned 2.93%.

Steady, albeit slowing, economic growth, accommodative monetary policy, and robust consumer spending helped propel U.S. stock markets to new highs in mid-February. The U.S. economy, despite escalating trade tensions with China over much of the reporting period, maintained steady growth in its record eleventh year of expansion, although at a slowing pace. In December, an announced partial trade resolution between the U.S. and China helped ease market tensions. U.S. gross domestic product (GDP) grew at an annual rate of 2.1% in the third and fourth quarters of 2019, up from 2.0% in the second quarter. Unemployment remained low, ending the period close to its lowest rate in 50 years. Consumer confidence remained solid for most of the reporting period. Inflation crept slightly higher over the reporting period. Amid growing signs of global economic weakness that threatened to dampen U.S. economic growth, along with continued low inflation and weakness in manufacturing—and following one 0.25% interest-rate cut in July—the Federal Reserve (Fed) enacted two interest rate cuts during the period—in September and October. The federal funds rate ended the reporting period in a range of 1.50% to 1.75%.

The Investment Environment (continued)

Outside the U.S., conditions continued to soften, dampened by slowing economic output, slumping world trade, geopolitical concerns, and, particularly towards the end of the reporting period, the COVID-19 outbreak. Oil prices struggled for much of the period amid rising U.S. crude production, falling steeply to the lowest price in more than a year by the end of the reporting period. In the eurozone, growth slowed, subdued by strikes in France that dampened manufacturing output and political unrest in Italy, among other things. In January, Brexit occurred with the formal departure of the United Kingdom from the European Union, although many uncertainties remain. Amid the economic and political turmoil leading up to its departure, the United Kingdom’s growth was volatile with GDP growing in the third quarter of 2019 after shrinking in the second quarter. United Kingdom GDP was flat in the fourth quarter of 2019. Japan’s economy shrank over the reporting period, particularly during the final quarter of 2019 as a sales tax increase took effect and business spending tumbled. Several Asian economies, including emerging market countries such as China and India, slowed but still outpaced many developed economies. China’s economy slowed amid trade pressure from the U.S. and sluggish demand from home and abroad, while India’s economy was dampened primarily as a result of a fall in factory output and exports and a slowdown in investment. In response to the economic environment, to bolster growth, and to help ensure stability given ongoing trade tensions, a number of central banks reduced their policy rates, while others maintained low—and for some international central banks, negative—interest rates.

Although all sectors suffered in the final week of February, among the sectors in the Dow Jones U.S. Broad Market Index, the information technology sector was the strongest performer for the reporting period, rising on a combination of strong fundamentals, ongoing economic strength, rising demand, and continued solid balance sheets with large cash balances and relatively low debt. The health care sector was the next-strongest performer for the reporting period. Supported by an aging population that portends more-extensive drug treatments and medical care, the health care sector exhibited solid fundamentals and strong balance sheets with substantial cash. The weakest performing sector of the reporting period was the energy sector, which suffered as a result of falling oil prices driven by demand concerns related to the COVID-19 outbreak in China further slowing global growth, as well as from growing U.S. crude oil production from fracking. The materials sector underperformed, impacted by fluctuations in the global economy, the ongoing U.S.-China trade war, and the COVID-19 outbreak.

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

2. Significant Accounting Policies:

(a) Security Valuation:

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

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):

• Underlying funds: Mutual funds are valued at their respective NAVs.

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

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):

The levels associated with valuing the funds’ investments as of February 29, 2020 are disclosed in the Condensed Portfolio Holdings.

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

Futures Contracts: Futures contracts are instruments that represent an agreement between two parties that obligates one party to buy, and the other party to sell, specific instruments at an agreed upon price on a stipulated future date. A fund must give the broker a deposit of cash and/or securities (initial margin) whenever it enters into a futures contract. The amount of the deposit may vary from one contract to another. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or received by a fund depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the futures contract and are accounted for as unrealized appreciation or depreciation until the contract is closed, at which time the gains or losses are realized. Futures contracts are traded publicly on exchanges, and their market value may change daily.

(d) Investment Income:

Interest income is recorded as it accrues. Dividends and distributions from portfolio securities and underlying funds are recorded on the date they are effective (the ex-dividend date), although the funds record certain foreign security dividends on the day they learn of the ex-dividend date. Any distributions from underlying funds are recorded in accordance with the character of the distributions as designated by the underlying funds.

3. Risk Factors:

₈₂

Schwab U.S. Equity ETFs | Semiannual Report

Schwab U.S. Equity ETFs

Financial Notes, unaudited (continued)

3. Risk Factors (continued):

Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF primarily invests in dividend paying stocks. As a result, fund performance will correlate with the performance of the dividend paying stock segment of the stock market, and a 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.

Growth Investing Risk. Certain funds invest in growth stocks. 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.

Sampling Index Tracking Risk. Certain funds may not fully replicate the index and may hold securities not included in the index. As a result, a fund is subject to the risk that the investment adviser’s investment management strategy, the implementation of which is subject to a number of constraints, may not produce the intended results. Because certain funds utilize a sampling approach they may not track the return of their respective index as well as they would if the funds purchased all of the securities in their respective index.

Financial Notes, unaudited (continued)

3. Risk Factors (continued):

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.

Concentration Risk. To the extent that a fund’s or an index’s portfolio is concentrated in the securities of issuers in a particular market, industry, group of industries, sector or asset class, the fund may be adversely affected by the performance of those securities, may be subject to increased price volatility and may be more vulnerable to adverse economic, market, political or regulatory occurrences affecting that market, industry, group of industries, sector or asset class.

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