From the President
 

CHANDOHA PHOTO
 
Marie Chandoha is President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. and the funds covered in this report.

 
Dear Shareholder,
 
During the year that ended October 31, 2010, many investors wrestled with news that was mostly negative—the recovery of the U.S. economy remained tepid, unemployment stayed stubbornly high, and the housing market remained weak. In spite of these events, nearly all stock and bond markets produced positive returns, both in the United States and abroad.
 
The bellwether S&P 500 Index gained 16.52% during the year and international stock markets also rewarded investors as indicated by a return of 8.82% in the MSCI EAFE Index. Growth stocks generally fared better than value stocks in large-, mid-, and small-cap sectors.
 
For the year ending October 31, 2010, the five Schwab Equity Index Funds generated positive total returns that were in line with their respective comparative indices. The funds’ returns reflected the improving investment results of both the U.S. and international stock markets, particularly in the latter part of the period. The Schwab Equity Index Funds seek investment results that correspond to their respective indices. Please read the fund managers’ discussion and analysis on the following pages for more details.
 
At Schwab, we encourage investors to review their investment strategy periodically in the context of their tolerance for risk, timeline, and established investment plan.
 
If you have any questions about the Schwab Equity Index Funds or any other Schwab Funds, please call us at 1-800-435-4000. Please also see www.schwabfunds.com for details on each fund including performance results, investment strategy, and prospectus.
 
Thank you for investing with us.
 
Sincerely,
 
-s- Marie Chandoha

The Investment Environment
 
 
The past 12 months produced significant positive returns in nearly all major equity and fixed income markets, despite various economic indicators falling short of expectations here in the United States and abroad. Domestic equity markets fared better than international, and growth stocks outperformed value stocks in large-, mid-, and small-cap categories. In the credit markets, inflation-protected bonds were the best performers and U.S. Treasuries had the poorest returns, though they also had solid performance for the 12 months under review.
 
The return for the S&P 500 Index, which is usually seen as a bellwether for U.S. financial markets, was positive at 16.52%. The international stock markets also had solid overall returns, and the MSCI EAFE Index (Gross) returned 8.82%. In fixed-income, the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index returned 8.01%, while the Barclays Capital U.S. TIPS Index returned 10.42%, and the Barclays Capital U.S. Treasury Index returned 7.20% for the reporting period.
 
In a press release dated November 3, 2010, the Federal Reserve (the Fed) described information it had received since its meeting in September 2010, and noted that the pace of recovery in output and employment remained slow. Moreover, persistent high unemployment, coupled with depressed housing prices and a rise in foreclosures, continued to work against the U.S. economic recovery process. In the U.S. fixed income markets, accommodative Fed policy in the form of a near-zero federal funds rate remained intact, and several recent statements from the Fed affirmed that rates will remain low for an extended period of time. Also in November’s press release, the Fed stated that it intended to purchase up to $600 billion of longer-term U.S. Treasuries by the end of the second quarter in 2011.
 
At the international level, financial markets fluctuated during the reporting period. Ongoing concerns regarding the debt obligations of Greece, Spain, Ireland, and other European countries continued to capture the attention of central banks and resulted in the progressive downgrading of debt in those countries. The news caused temporary turmoil in the U.S. and global financial markets in early May 2010. While there has been some rebounding to pre-May levels in the markets, central banks remain attentive to debt ratios, monetary exchange rates, interest rates, and inflation measurements.
 
During the reporting period, two economic events caused volatility in the equity and fixed income markets. First, was the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico on April 20, 2010. The costs—in terms of environmental impact and loss of oil—affected energy-related stocks, which declined on the news. For the reporting period, the Energy Sector was the weakest performing sector in the S&P 500 Index. Second, investor confidence in the United States and abroad was further shaken on May 6, 2010, when the Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 999 points, within a 30-minute timeframe, before partially regaining some of the decline. The equity market event was subsequently named the “flash crash.” As a result of the flash crash, more than 16,000 trades were cancelled by the major U.S. stock exchanges.
 
On a more general note in the United States, real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth remained lower than hoped for during the reporting period, with the Bureau of Economic Analysis estimating that GDP grew at a rate of 2.0% for the third quarter of 2010. Likewise, the national unemployment rate—as reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics—was an ongoing concern and hovered just below 10% throughout the 12-month period. Finally, high delinquencies, foreclosures, and stalled foreclosures weighed heavily on the housing sector. The discovery that some institutions had improper or incomplete paperwork on original loan documents brought at least a temporary halt to some foreclosures.

Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund
 
 
The Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund (the fund) seeks to track the total return of the S&P 500 Index. To pursue its goal, the fund generally invests in stocks that are included in the S&P 500 Index. The fund generally gives the same weight to a given stock as the index does. The S&P 500 Index includes the stocks of 500 leading U.S. publicly traded companies from a broad range of industries. For more information on the fund’s objective and strategy, please see the fund’s prospectus.
 
The fund returned 16.50% for the 12-month period, while its comparative index, the S&P 500 Index (the index), returned 16.52%. Unlike the fund, the index does not include operational and transactional costs. During the period, the fund utilized a replication approach.
 
The fund’s tight allocation across all sectors, market capitalization, and valuation measures—compared to the index—kept the fund’s performance close to the index’s. Every sector posted positive returns. The best absolute performers were Consumer Discretionary and Industrials. Information Technology, having the largest weight, contributed the most to index and fund returns. Consumer Discretionary was the next largest contributor to index and fund returns. The least positive absolute performers for the fund and the index were Financials and Energy, whereas, the weakest contributors to both were Utilities and Telecommunication Services.

1 Fund expenses may have been partially absorbed by CSIM and Schwab. Without these reductions, the fund’s returns would have been lower.
2 The pre-tax total return and the graph do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. After-tax returns are calculated using the highest historical individual federal marginal income tax rates in effect as of 10/31/10 and do not reflect the impact of state and local taxes or the alternative minimum tax. Actual returns depend on an investor’s situation and may differ from those shown. After-tax returns may not be relevant to investors who hold their fund shares through tax-deferred arrangements. Pre-liquidation after-tax returns reflect the tax effects of purchases and sales of securities within the fund portfolios and assume investors continue to hold fund shares at the end of the measurement periods. Post-liquidation figures assume investors sold fund shares at the end of the measurement periods and reflect both the effects of taxable distributions and any taxable gains or losses realized upon the sale of shares. Source for category information: Morningstar, Inc. Some funds in this category may not use tax-efficient strategies, including this fund.

Gross Expense: Does not reflect the effect of contractual fee waivers. For actual ratios during the period, refer to the financial highlights section of the financial statements.
5 On September 9, 2009, the Investor Share class, Select Share class and e.Shares class were combined into a single class of shares of the fund. The performance and financial history of the fund are that of the fund’s former Select Shares. Accordingly, the past performance shown is that of the fund’s former Select Shares.

Schwab 1000 Index® Fund
 
 
The Schwab 1000 Index Fund (the fund) seeks to match the total return of the Schwab 1000 Index. To pursue its goal, the fund generally invests in stocks that are included in the Schwab 1000 Index. The fund generally gives the same weight to a given stock as the index does. The Schwab 1000 Index includes the stocks of the largest 1,000 publicly traded companies in the United States, with size being determined by market capitalization (total market value of all shares outstanding). The index is designed to be a measure of the performance of large- and mid-cap U.S. stocks. For more information on the fund’s objective and strategy, please see the fund’s prospectus.
 
The fund returned 17.51% for the 12-month period, while its comparative index, the Schwab 1000 Index (the index), returned 18.05%. Unlike the fund, the index does not include operational and transactional costs. During the period, the fund utilized a replication approach. The fund uses certain management techniques in seeking to enhance its after-tax performance. These strategies, while helping the fund reduce capital gain distributions, may result in a variance from the fund’s index.
 
The fund’s tight allocation across all sectors, market capitalization, and valuation measures—compared to the index—kept the fund’s performance close to the index’s.
 
Every sector posted positive returns. The best absolute performers were Consumer Discretionary and Industrials. Information Technology, having the largest weight, contributed the most to index and fund returns. Consumer Discretionary was the next largest contributor to index and fund returns. The least positive absolute performers for the fund and the index were Financials and Energy, whereas, the weakest contributors to both were Utilities and Telecommunication Services.

Schwab Small-Cap Index Fund®
 
 
The Schwab Small-Cap Index Fund (the fund) seeks to track the total return of the Schwab Small-Cap Index. To pursue its goal, the fund generally invests in stocks that are included in the Schwab Small-Cap Index. The fund generally gives the same weight to a given stock as the index does. The Schwab Small-Cap Index includes the stocks of the second-largest 1,000 publicly traded companies in the United States, with size being determined by market capitalization (total market value of all shares outstanding). The index is designed to be a measure of the performance of small-cap U.S. stocks. For more information on the fund’s objective and strategy, please see the fund’s prospectus.
 
The fund returned 27.85% while its comparative index, the Schwab Small-Cap Index (the index), returned 28.08%. Unlike the fund, the index does not include operational and transactional costs. During the period, the fund utilized a replication approach.
 
The fund’s tight allocation across all sectors, market capitalization, and valuation measures—compared to the index—kept the fund’s performance close to the index’s. Every sector posted positive returns. The best absolute performers were Consumer Discretionary and Materials. Information Technology and Financials contributed the most to index performance, while Consumer Discretionary and Information Technology contributed the most to fund performance. The weakest absolute performers for the fund and the index were Financials and Health Care, though both returned over 19%. For the fund, the least positive absolute performers were Financials and Telecommunication Services, though both returned over 16%. In terms of contribution to the fund and the index, Telecommunication Services and Utilities were the weakest.

1 Fund expenses may have been partially absorbed by CSIM and Schwab. Without these reductions, the fund’s returns would have been lower.
2 The pre-tax total return and the graph do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. After-tax returns are calculated using the highest historical individual federal marginal income tax rates in effect as of 10/31/10 and do not reflect the impact of state and local taxes or the alternative minimum tax. Actual returns depend on an investor’s situation and may differ from those shown. After-tax returns may not be relevant to investors who hold their fund shares through tax-deferred arrangements. Pre-liquidation after-tax returns reflect the tax effects of purchases and sales of securities within the fund portfolios and assume investors continue to hold fund shares at the end of the measurement periods. Post-liquidation figures assume investors sold fund shares at the end of the measurement periods and reflect both the effects of taxable distributions and any taxable gains or losses realized upon the sale of shares.

Schwab Total Stock Market Index Fund®
 
 
The Schwab Total Stock Market Index Fund (the fund) seeks to track the total return of the entire U.S. stock market, as measured by the Dow Jones U.S. Total Stock Market Index. To pursue its goal, the fund generally invests in stocks that are included in The Dow Jones U.S. Total Stock Market Index. The fund generally gives the same weight to a given stock as the index does. The Dow Jones U.S. Total Stock Market Index includes all publicly traded stocks of companies headquartered in the United States for which pricing information is readily available—currently more than 6,000 stocks. For more information on the fund’s objective and strategy, please see the fund’s prospectus.
 
The fund returned 18.53%, for the 12-month reporting period, while its comparative index, the Dow Jones U.S. Total Stock Market Index (the index), returned 18.76%. Unlike the fund, the index does not include operational and transactional costs. During the period, the fund utilized a sampling approach.
 
The fund’s tight allocation across all sectors, market capitalization, and valuation measures—compared to the index—kept its performance close to the index’s. Every sector posted positive returns. The best absolute performers for the fund and the index were Consumer Discretionary and Industrials, while Information Technology contributed the most to index and fund returns.
 
Stocks with smaller market capitalization outperformed their larger-cap counterparts, and from a valuation perspective, returns for all price-to-earnings and price-to-book groups had positive, evenly-distributed performance. The least positive absolute performers for the fund and the index were Financials and Energy, whereas, the weakest contributors to both were Utilities and Telecommunication Services.

Schwab International Index Fund®
 
 
The Schwab International Index Fund (the fund) seeks to track the total return of the Schwab International Index. To pursue its goal, the fund generally invests in stocks that are included in the Schwab International Index. Schwab International Index includes stocks of 350 of the largest publicly traded companies from selected countries outside the United States. For more information on the fund’s objective and strategy, please see the fund’s prospectus.
 
The fund returned 9.31% for the 12-month period, while its comparative index, the Schwab International Index (the index), returned 8.05%. Unlike the fund, the index does not include operational and transactional costs. During the period, the fund utilized a replication approach.
 
The fund’s tight allocation across all sectors, market caps, and valuation measures—compared to the index—kept the fund’s performance close to the index’s performance. However, two elements, beyond the individual stocks the fund held, were important to the fund’s performance. A part of the fund’s outperformance was attributed to timing differences in foreign exchange calculations.* Fair valuation of the fund’s holdings on the last trading day of the current period also had a positive impact on the fund’s return relative to the index (see financial note 2 for more information). While both of these elements contributed positively to fund performance, these effects could be negative during other periods.
 
Almost all sectors posted positive returns. Materials and Consumer Staples were the best contributors to fund performance, while Consumer Discretionary and Materials were the top contributors to the index. The weakest contributors and absolute performers for the fund and the index were Energy and Financials. From a country standpoint, the top absolute performers were Denmark and Hong Kong. Greece was the worst performer. The countries contributing most to the index return were the United Kingdom and Canada.

Foreign securities can involve risks such as political and economic instability and currency risk.
 
* 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), using exchange rates in place at that time. 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.

Table of Contents

 
Fund Expenses (Unaudited)
 
 Examples for a $1,000 Investment
 
As a fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: transaction costs, such as redemption fees, and ongoing costs, such as 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, 2010 and held through October 31, 2010.
 
Actual Return lines in the table below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use this information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value ¸ $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for your fund or share class under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period.”
 
Hypothetical Return lines in the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a fund’s or share class’ 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, such as redemption fees. 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 (subject to a redemption fee, see financial note 8) at closing net asset value (“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 trustees 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 also may keep certain assets in segregated accounts, as required by securities laws.
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
 
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the funds use in their preparation of financial statements. The accounting policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
 
(a) Security Valuation:
 
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: valued at the closing value for the day, or, on days when no closing value has been reported, halfway between the most recent bid and asked quotes. Securities that are primarily traded on foreign exchanges are valued at the closing values of such securities on their respective exchanges with these values then translated into U.S. dollars at the valuation date exchange rate, unless these securities are fair valued as discussed below.
 
  •  Securities for which no quoted value is available: The Board of Trustees has adopted procedures to fair value each fund’s securities when market prices are not “readily available” or are unreliable. For example, the fund may fair value a security when a security is de-listed or its trading is halted or suspended; when a security’s primary pricing source is unable or

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
 
  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 Board of Trustees regularly reviews fair value determinations made by the funds pursuant to the procedures.
 
  •  International Fair Valuation: The Board of Trustees has adopted procedures to fair value foreign equity securities that trade in markets that close prior to when the funds value their holdings. By fair valuing securities whose prices may have been affected by events occurring after the close of trading, each fund 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 net asset value 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 a fund and that of its index or benchmark. Each fund makes fair value determinations in good faith in accordance with the fund’s valuation procedures. 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 of Trustees regularly reviews fair value determinations made by the funds pursuant to the procedures.
 
  •  Futures and forwards contracts: valued at their settlement prices as of the close of their exchanges (for futures) or at a value based on that day’s exchange rates (for forwards).
 
  •  Short-term securities (60 days or less to maturity): valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.
 
  •  Underlying funds: valued at their respective net asset values as determined by the underlying fund in accordance with the 1940 Act for a given day.
 
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures under GAAP, the funds disclose the fair value of their investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (level 3 measurements). 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. The funds do not adjust the quoted price for such investments, even in situations where the funds hold a large position and a sale could reasonably impact the quoted price.
 
  •  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 funds value their holdings may require fair valuations due to significant movement in the U.S. markets occurring after the daily close of the foreign markets. The Board of Trustees has approved a vendor that would calculate fair valuations of international equity securities based on a number of factors that appear to correlate to the movements in the U.S. markets. As investments whose values are classified as Level 2 Prices include positions that are not traded in active markets and/or are subject to transfer restrictions, valuations may be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, which are generally based on available market information.

Financial Notes (continued)
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
 
 
  •  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 following is a summary of the inputs used to value the funds’ investments as of October 31, 2010:

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued new guidance requiring reporting entities to make new disclosures about amounts and reasons for significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements as well as inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements that fall in either Level 2 or Level 3, and information on purchases, sales, issuances and settlements of Level 3 securities on a gross basis. The new and revised disclosures are required to be implemented for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures surrounding purchases, sales, issuances and settlements of Level 3 fair value measurements on a gross basis, which are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010 and for interim periods within those fiscal years.
 
The funds have adopted the new guidance for the period ended October 31, 2010. There were no significant transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 for the period ended October 31, 2010. Management is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of the other provisions of the new guidance on the funds’ financial statements.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
 
Some funds entered into equity index futures contracts (“futures”) during the period from November 1, 2009 through October 31, 2010. The funds invested in futures to gain market exposure while still keeping a small portion of assets in cash for business operations. The primary risk associated with investing in futures contracts is market risk. The fair value and variation margin for any futures contracts held at October 31, 2010 and the realized/unrealized gains (losses) on futures contracts held during the period ended October 31, 2010 are presented on the face of the Portfolio Holdings, Statement of Assets and Liabilities and Statement of Operation, respectively. Refer to financial note 2(b) for the fund’s accounting policies with respect to futures contracts and financial note 3 for disclosures concerning the risks of investing in futures contracts. During the period, the monthly average contract value of futures contracts and the monthly average number of contracts were as follows:

(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 (the “initial margin”) whenever it enters into the futures contract. The amount of the deposit may vary from one contract to another. Subsequent payments (“variation margin”) are made or received by a fund depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the futures contract and are accounted for as unrealized gains or losses until the contract is closed, at which time the gains and losses are realized. Futures are traded publicly on exchanges, and their market value changes daily.
 
Forward Currency Contracts: “Forwards”, as they are known, are contracts to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The accounting for forwards is treated similar to that of futures contracts in that gains and losses are accounted for as unrealized gains or losses until the contracts settles and such amounts are accounted for as realized.
 
Securities Lending: Under the Securities Lending Program, a fund (the “lender”) may make short-term loans of their securities to another party (the “borrower”). When the fund lends securities, the borrower provides cash, U.S. government securities or letters of credit as collateral against the loans in an amount at least equal to 100% of the market value of the loaned securities. The cash collateral of securities loaned is invested in money market portfolios registered under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act. The investments of collateral are mark-to-market daily and the value of the collateral must be at least 100% of the market value of the loan securities each day. If the value of the collateral falls below 100%, it will be adjusted the following day.
 
Repurchase Agreements: In a repurchase agreement, a fund buys a security from another party (usually a financial institution) with the agreement that it be sold back in the future. The funds’ repurchase agreements are fully collateralized by cash, U.S. government securities, U.S. government agency securities or other securities. All collateral is held by the funds’ custodian (or, with tri-party agreements, the agent’s bank) and is monitored daily to ensure that its market value is at least equal to the repurchase price under the agreement.
 
(c) Security Transactions:
 
Security transactions are recorded as of the date the order to buy or sell the security is executed. Realized gains and losses from security transactions are based on the identified costs of the securities involved.
 
Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are reported in U.S. dollars. For assets and liabilities held on a given date, the dollar value is based on market exchange rates in effect on that date. Transactions involving foreign currencies, including purchases, sales, income receipts and expense payments, are calculated using exchange rates in effect on the transaction date. Realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and the difference between the recorded amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in foreign exchange rates on foreign denominated assets and liabilities other than

Financial Notes (continued)
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
 
investments in securities held at the end of the reporting period. These realized and unrealized foreign exchange gains and 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. 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 or forwards 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 gains or loss accordingly. A fund records the daily change in market value of futures, and also the change in the amount of margin deposit required (“due to/from broker”).
 
(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 may record certain foreign security dividends on the day they learn of the ex-dividend date.
 
(e) Expenses:
 
Expenses that are specific to a fund are charged directly to the fund. Expenses that are common to all funds within the trust generally are allocated among the funds in proportion to their average daily net assets.
 
(f) Distributions to Shareholders:
 
The funds declare distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, once a year.
 
(g) Custody Credit:
 
Certain funds have an arrangement with their custodian bank, State Street Bank and Trust Company, under which the funds receive a credit for their uninvested cash balance to offset their custody fees and accounting fees. The credit amounts, if any, are disclosed in the Statement of Operations as a reduction to the funds’ operating expenses.
 
(h) Accounting Estimates:
 
The accounting policies described in this report conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. 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.
 
(i) Federal Income Taxes:
 
The funds intend to meet federal income and excise tax requirements for regulated investment companies. Accordingly, the funds distribute substantially all of their net investment income and realized net capital gains, if any, to their respective shareholders each year. As long as the funds meet the tax requirements, it is not required to pay federal income tax.
 
(j) Foreign Taxes:
 
The funds may be subject to foreign taxes (a portion of which may be reclaimable) on income, corporate events, foreign currency exchanges, capital gains on investments on currency repatriation. 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 October 31, 2010, if any, are reflected in the funds’ Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
 
(k) 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

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
 
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 to be remote.
 
3. Risk Factors:
 
Investing in the funds may involve certain risks, as discussed in the funds’ prospectus, including, but not limited to those described below:
 
Equity markets rise and fall daily. As with any investment whose performance is tied to these markets, the value of your investment in the funds will fluctuate, which means that an investor could lose money.
 
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.
 
Certain funds primarily follow the large-cap portion of the U.S. stock market, as measured by the index. It follows these stocks during upturns as well as downturns. Because of its indexing strategy, the fund does not take steps to reduce market exposure or to lessen the effects of a declining market. In addition, because of a fund’s expenses, a fund’s performance is normally below that of the index.
 
As an index fund, a fund seeks to track the performance of its benchmark index, although it may not be successful in doing so. The divergence between the performance of a fund and its benchmark index, positive or negative, is called “tracking error.” Tracking error can be caused by many factors and it may be significant.
 
Certain funds do not fully replicate their benchmark 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 strategy, the implementation of which is subject to a number of constraints, may not produce the intended results. Because the 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 benchmark index.
 
Historically, small-cap stocks have been riskier than large- and mid-cap stocks, and may move sharply, especially during market upturns and downturns. Small-cap companies may be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic events than larger, more established companies. During a period when small-cap stocks fall behind other types of investments — large-cap and mid-cap stocks, for instance — a fund’s small-cap holdings could reduce performance.
 
Both large- and mid-cap stocks tend to go in and out of favor based on market and economic conditions. However, stocks of mid-cap companies tend to be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic events than larger more established companies. During a period when large- and mid-cap U.S. stocks fall behind other types of investments — small-cap stocks, for instance — a fund’s large- and mid-cap holdings could reduce performance.
 
A fund’s investments in securities of foreign issuers may involve certain risks that are greater than those associated with investments in securities of U.S. issuers. These include risks of adverse changes in foreign economic, political, regulatory and other conditions; changes in currency exchange rates or exchange control regulations (including limitations on currency movements and exchanges); differing accounting, auditing, financial reporting and legal standards and practices; differing securities market structures; and higher transaction costs.
 
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 and could cause the fund to lose more than the principal amount invested. In addition, investments in derivatives may involve leverage, which means a small percentage of assets invested in derivatives can have a disproportionately large impact on the fund.
 
A particular investment may be difficult to purchase or sell. A fund may be unable to sell illiquid securities at an advantageous time or price.
 
Securities lending involves the risk of loss of rights in the collateral or delay in recovery of the collateral if the borrower fails to return the security loaned or becomes insolvent.
 
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:
 
Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (“CSIM” or the “investment adviser”), a wholly owned subsidiary of The Charles Schwab Corporation, serves as each fund’s investment adviser and administrator pursuant to Investment Advisory and Administration Agreements (“Advisory Agreement”) between it and the trusts.
 
For its advisory and administrative services to the Schwab 1000 Index Fund, CSIM is entitled to receive an annual fee payable monthly based on the fund’s average daily net assets described as follows:

The Board of Trustees 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 service providers, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (a broker-dealer affiliate of CSIM, “Schwab”), of certain account maintenance, customer liaison and shareholder services to the current shareholders of the funds. Schwab serves as the funds’ paying agent under the Plan for making payments of the shareholder service fee due to the service providers (other than Schwab) under the Plan. All shareholder service fees paid by the funds to Schwab in its capacity as the funds’ paying agent will be passed through to the service providers, and Schwab will not retain any portion of such fees.
 
Pursuant to the Plan, each fund’s shares are subject to an annual shareholder servicing fee up to the amount set forth in the table below. The shareholder servicing fee paid to a particular service provider is made pursuant to its written agreement with Schwab (or, in the case of payments made to Schwab, pursuant to Schwab’s written agreement with the funds). Payments under the Plan are made as described in the table below regardless of Schwab’s or the service provider’s actual cost of providing the services. If the cost of providing the services under the Plan is less than the payments received, the unexpended portion of the fees may be retained as profit by Schwab or the service provider.

Although these agreements specify certain fees for these services, CSIM and Schwab have made additional agreements (“expense limitation”) with the funds to limit the total annual fund operating expenses, excluding interest, taxes and certain non-routine expenses for so long as CSIM serves as the investment adviser to the funds, which may only be amended or terminated with the approval of the funds’ Board of Trustees. The expense limitation as a percentage of average daily net assets is as follows:

The funds may also let a related party own shares of the funds. As of October 31, 2010, the shares owned by Schwab Charitable Giving Trust (an affiliate of Schwab) as a percentage of the total shares of the Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund and the Schwab Small Cap Index Fund were 0.6% and 1.2%, respectively.
 
The funds may engage in direct transactions with certain other Schwab Funds when practical. When one fund is seeking to sell a security that another is seeking to buy, an interfund transaction can allow both funds to benefit by reducing transaction costs. This practice is limited to funds that share the same investment adviser, trustees and officers. For the year ended October 31, 2010, each fund’s total aggregate security transactions with other Schwab Funds were as follows:

average of the overnight repurchase agreement rate and the short-term bank loan rate. The interfund lending facility is subject to the oversight and periodic review of the Board of Trustees of the Schwab Funds. The funds had no interfund borrowing or lending activity during the period.
 
5. Board of Trustees:
 
Trustees may include people who are officers and/or directors of the investment adviser or Schwab. 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 trusts did not pay any of these persons for their services as trustees, but they did pay non-interested persons (independent trustees), as noted in each fund’s Statement of Operations.
 
6. Borrowing from Banks:
 
The funds may borrow money from banks and custodians. The funds have custodian overdraft facilities, a committed line of credit of $150 million with State Street Bank and Trust Company, an uncommitted line of credit of $100 million with Bank of America, N.A. and an uncommitted line of credit of $50 million with Brown Brothers Harriman. The funds pay interest on the amounts they borrow at rates that are negotiated periodically. The funds also pay an annual fee to State Street Bank and Trust Company for the committed line of credit.
 
There were no borrowings from the lines of credit during the period. However, the funds utilized their overdraft facility and incurred interest expense, which is disclosed in the 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/Maturities of Investment Securities:
 
For the period ended October 31, 2010, purchases and sales/maturities of securities (excluding short-term obligations) were 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 are due primarily to differing treatment for items such as non-U.S. currency gains and losses, short-term capital gains and losses; capital losses related to wash sales, unrealized appreciation of certain investments in non-U.S. securities; and income on certain investments. The fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the year in which the net investment income and net realized gains are recorded by the funds for financial reporting purposes. The funds may also designate a portion of the amount paid to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for tax purposes.
 
The permanent book and tax basis differences may result in reclassifications between capital account and other accounts as required. The adjustments will have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. As of October 31, 2010, the funds made the following reclassifications:

As of October 31, 2010, management has reviewed the tax positions for open periods (for federal purposes, three years from the date of filing and 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 year of October 31, 2010, 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.
 
11. Reorganization:
 
Under a plan of reorganization adopted by the Schwab Capital Trust, all of the assets and liabilities of the Schwab Institutional Select S&P 500 Fund were transferred to the Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund. The reorganization which qualified as a tax free exchange for federal income tax purposes, was completed at the close of business on September 9, 2009. The following is a

To the Boards of Trustees and Shareholders of:
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
 
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the summary portfolio holdings, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Schwab 1000 Index Fund (one of the portfolios constituting Schwab Investments), Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund, Schwab Small-Cap Index Fund, Schwab Total Stock Market Index Fund and Schwab International Index Fund (four of the portfolios constituting Schwab Capital Trust) (hereafter collectively referred to as the “Funds”) at October 31, 2010, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Funds’ management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at October 31, 2010 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Investment Advisory Agreement Approval
 
The Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) requires that initial approval of, as well as the continuation of, a fund’s investment advisory agreement must be specifically approved (1) by the vote of the trustees or by a vote of the shareholders of the fund, and (2) by the vote of a majority of the trustees who are not parties to the investment advisory agreement or “interested persons” of any party (the “Independent Trustees”), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. In connection with such approvals, the fund’s trustees must request and evaluate, and the investment adviser is required to furnish, such information as may be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the investment advisory agreement.
 
The Board of Trustees (the “Board” or the “Trustees”, as appropriate) calls and holds one or more meetings each year that are dedicated, in whole or in part, to considering whether to renew the investment advisory agreements between Schwab Capital Trust and Schwab Investments (collectively, the “Trusts”) and Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (“CSIM”) (the “Agreements”) 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 and Schwab International Index Fund (the “Funds”), and to review certain other agreements pursuant to which CSIM provides investment advisory services to certain other registered investment companies. In preparation for the meeting(s), the Board requests and reviews a wide variety of materials provided by CSIM, including information about CSIM’s affiliates, personnel and operations. The Board also receives extensive data provided by third parties. This information is in addition to the detailed information about the Funds that the Board reviews during the course of each year, including information that relates to Fund operations and Fund performance. The Independent Trustees receive advice from independent counsel to the Independent Trustees, including a memorandum regarding the responsibilities of trustees for the approval of investment advisory agreements. In addition, the Independent Trustees meet in executive session outside the presence of Fund management and participate in question and answer sessions with representatives of CSIM.
 
The Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, considered information specifically relating to its consideration of the continuance of the Agreements with respect to the Funds at meetings held on April 28, 2010, and June 3, 2010, and approved the renewal of the Agreements with respect to the Funds for an additional one year term at the meeting held on June 3, 2010. The Board’s approval 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 the Funds under the Agreement, including the resources of CSIM and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds;
 
2.  each Fund’s investment performance and how it compared to that of certain other comparable mutual funds;
 
3.  each Fund’s expenses and how those expenses compared to those of certain other comparable mutual funds;
 
4.  the profitability of CSIM and its affiliates, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (“Schwab”), with respect to each Fund, including both direct and indirect benefits accruing to CSIM and its affiliates; and
 
5.  the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Funds grow 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 CSIM to the Funds and the resources of CSIM and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds. In this regard, the Trustees evaluated, among other things, CSIM’s personnel, experience, track record and compliance program. The Trustees also considered investments in CSIM’s mutual fund infrastructure, Schwab’s wide range of products, services, and channel alternatives such as free advice, investment and research tools, Internet access, and an array of account features that benefit the Funds and their shareholders. The Trustees also considered Schwab’s excellent reputation as a full service brokerage firm and its overall financial condition. Finally, the Trustees considered that the vast majority of the Funds’ shareholders are also brokerage clients of Schwab. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the nature, extent and quality of services provided by CSIM to the Funds and the resources of CSIM and its affiliates dedicated to the Funds supported renewal of the Agreements with respect to the Funds.
 
Fund Performance. The Board considered Fund performance in determining whether to renew the Agreements with respect to the Funds. Specifically, the Trustees considered each Fund’s performance relative to a peer category of other mutual funds and appropriate indices/ benchmarks, in light of total return, and market trends. As part of this review, the Trustees considered the composition of the peer category, selection criteria and the reputation of the third party who prepared the peer category analysis. In evaluating the performance of each Fund, the Trustees considered both

risk and shareholder risk expectations 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 its review of Fund expenses and adviser profitability discussed below. Following such evaluation the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the performance of the Funds supported renewal of the Agreements with respect to the Funds.
 
Fund Expenses. With respect to the Funds’ expenses, the Trustees considered the rate of compensation called for by the Agreements, and each Fund’s net operating expense ratio, in each case, in comparison to those of a peer group of mutual funds, such peer groups and comparisons having been selected and calculated by an independent third party. The Trustees considered the effects of CSIM’s and Schwab’s historical practice of voluntarily waiving management and other fees to prevent total Fund expenses from exceeding a specified cap. The Trustees also considered CSIM’s contractual commitment to keep each Fund’s expense cap for so long as CSIM serves as the adviser to such Fund. The Trustees also considered fees charged by CSIM to other mutual funds and exchange-traded funds. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the expenses of the Funds are reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreements with respect to the Funds.
 
Profitability. With regard to profitability, the Trustees considered the compensation flowing to CSIM and its affiliates, directly or indirectly. In this connection, the Trustees reviewed management’s profitability analyses, together with certain commentary thereon from an independent accounting firm. The Trustees also considered any other benefits derived by CSIM from its relationship with the Funds, such as whether, by virtue of its management of the Funds, CSIM obtains investment information or other research resources that aid it in providing advisory services to other clients. The Trustees considered whether the varied levels of compensation and profitability under the Agreements and other service agreements were reasonable and justified in light of the quality of all services rendered to each Fund by CSIM and its affiliates. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the profitability of CSIM is reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreements with respect to the Funds.
 
Economies of Scale. The Trustees considered the existence of any economies of scale and whether those are passed along to a Fund’s shareholders through a graduated investment advisory fee schedule or other means, including any fee waivers by CSIM and its affiliates. In this regard, and consistent with their consideration of Fund expenses, the Trustees considered that CSIM and Schwab have committed resources to minimize the effects on shareholders of diseconomies of scale during periods when fund assets were relatively small through their contractual expense waivers. For example, such diseconomies of scale may particularly affect newer funds or funds with investment strategies that are from time to time out of favor, but shareholders may benefit from the continued availability of such funds at subsidized expense levels. The Trustees also considered the existing contractual investment advisory fee schedules relating to Schwab 1000 Index Fund that include lower fees at higher graduated asset levels. Based on this evaluation the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the Funds obtain reasonable benefit from economies of scale.
 
In the course of their deliberations, the Trustees did not identify any particular information or factor that was all important or controlling. Based on the Trustees’ deliberation and their evaluation of the information described above, the Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, approved the continuation of the 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 such services and expenses and such other matters as the Trustees have considered to be relevant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment.

Glossary
 
 
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.
 
beta A historical measure of an investment’s volatility relative to a market index (usually the S&P 500®). The index is defined as having a beta of 1.00. Investments with a beta higher than 1.00 have been more volatile than the index; those with a beta of less than 1.00 have been less volatile.
 
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 gain or loss is still “on paper” and is considered unrealized.
 
earnings growth rate For a mutual fund, the average yearly rate at which the earnings of the companies in the fund’s portfolio have grown, measured over the past five years.
 
earnings per share (EPS) A company’s earnings, or net income, for the past 12 months, divided by the number of shares outstanding.
 
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.
 
gross domestic product (GDP) The output of goods and services produced by labor and property located in the United States.
 
market cap, market capitalization The value of a company as determined by the total value of all shares of its stock outstanding.
 
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.
 
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.
 
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.
