1. Business Structure of the Fund:
The fund in this report is a series of Schwab Capital Trust (the trust), a no-load, open-end management investment company. The trust is organized as a Massachusetts business trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act).
The fund offers one share class. Shares are bought and sold at closing net asset value per share, which is the price for all outstanding shares of the fund. Each share has a par value of 1/1,000 of a cent, and the fund’s Board of Trustees may authorize the issuance of as many shares as necessary.
The fund maintains its own account for purposes of holding assets and accounting, and is considered a separate entity for tax purposes. Within its account, the fund may also keep certain assets in segregated accounts, as required by securities law. The "Schwab Funds Complex" includes The Charles Schwab Family of Funds, Schwab Capital Trust, Schwab Investments, Schwab Annuity Portfolios, Schwab Strategic Trust and Laudus Trust.
Investment Objective
The Schwab Fundamental Global Real Estate Index Fund’s goal is to track as closely as possible, before fees and expenses, the total return of an index that measures the performance of global real estate equities based on their fundamental size and weight.
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the fund uses in its preparation of financial statements. The fund follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standard Codification (ASC) Topic 946 Financial Services — Investment Companies. The accounting policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP).
The fund may invest in mutual funds and exchange-traded funds, which are referred to as "underlying funds." For more information about the underlying funds’ operations and policies, please refer to those funds’ semiannual and annual reports and holdings and financial statements, which are filed in Form N-CSR with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
(a) Security Valuation:
Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Board of Trustees has designated authority to a Valuation Designee, the fund’s investment adviser, to make fair valuation determinations under adopted procedures, subject to Board of Trustees oversight. The investment adviser has formed a Pricing Committee to administer the pricing and valuation of portfolio securities and other assets and liabilities as well as to ensure that prices used for internal purposes or provided by third parties reasonably reflect fair value. The Valuation Designee may utilize independent pricing services, quotations from securities and financial instrument dealers and other market sources to determine fair value.
Securities held in the fund’s portfolio are valued every business day. The following valuation policies and procedures are used by the Valuation Designee to value various types of securities:
● Securities traded on an exchange or over-the-counter: Traded securities are valued at the closing value for the day, or, on days when no closing value has been reported, at the mean of the most recent bid and ask quotes. Securities that are primarily traded on foreign exchanges are valued at the official closing price or the last sales price on the exchange where the securities are principally traded with these values then translated into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rate, unless these securities are fair valued as discussed below.
● Foreign equity security fair valuation: The Valuation Designee has adopted procedures to fair value foreign equity securities that are traded in markets that close prior to the valuation of the fund’s holdings. By fair valuing securities whose prices may have been affected by events occurring after the close of trading, the Valuation Designee seeks to establish prices that investors might expect to realize upon the current sales of these securities. This methodology is designed to deter “arbitrage” market timers, who seek to exploit delays between the change in the value of the fund’s portfolio holdings and the 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 the fund and that of its comparative index or benchmark.
● Futures contracts: Futures contracts are valued at their settlement prices as of the close of their exchanges.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
● Mutual funds: Mutual funds are valued at their respective net asset values.
● Securities for which no quoted value is available: The Valuation Designee has adopted procedures to fair value the fund’s securities when market prices are not “readily available” or are unreliable. For example, a security may be fair valued when it’s de-listed or its trading is halted or suspended; when a security’s primary pricing source is unable or unwilling to provide a price; or when a security’s primary trading market is closed during regular market hours. Fair value determinations are made in good faith in accordance with adopted valuation procedures. The Valuation Designee considers a number of factors, including unobservable market inputs, when arriving at fair value. The Valuation Designee may employ methods such as the review of related or comparable assets or liabilities, related market activities, recent transactions, market multiples, book values, transactional back-testing, disposition analysis and other relevant information. Due to the subjective and variable nature of fair value pricing, there can be no assurance that the fund could obtain the fair value assigned to the security upon the sale of such security.
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures under GAAP, the fund discloses the fair value of its investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the significant inputs to valuation methods used to measure the fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (Level 3 measurements). If inputs used to measure the financial instruments fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the valuation. If it is determined that either the volume and/or level of activity for an asset or liability has significantly decreased (from normal conditions for that asset or liability) or price quotations or observable inputs are not associated with orderly transactions, increased analysis and the Valuation Designee’s judgment will be required to estimate fair value.
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
● Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical investments — Investments whose values are based on quoted market prices in active markets. These generally include active listed equities, mutual funds, exchange-traded funds and futures contracts. Mutual funds and exchange-traded funds are classified as Level 1 prices, without consideration to the classification level of the underlying securities held which could be Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.
● 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 forward foreign currency exchange contracts, U.S. government and sovereign obligations, most government agency securities, investment-grade corporate bonds, certain mortgage products, less liquid listed equities, and state, municipal and provincial obligations. In addition, international securities whose markets close hours before the valuation of the fund’s holdings may require fair valuations due to significant movement in the U.S. markets occurring after the daily close of foreign markets. The Valuation Designee has approved a vendor that calculates fair valuations of international equity securities based on a number of factors that appear to correlate to the movements in the U.S. markets.
● Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Valuation Designee’s assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) — Investments whose values are classified as Level 3 prices have significant unobservable inputs, as they may trade infrequently or not at all. When observable prices are not readily available for these securities, one or more valuation methods are used for which sufficient and reliable data is available. The inputs used in estimating the value of Level 3 prices may include the original transaction price, quoted prices for similar securities or assets in active markets, completed or pending third-party transactions in the underlying investment or comparable issuers, and changes in financial ratios or cash flows. Level 3 prices may also be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, with the amount of such discount estimated in the absence of market information. Assumptions used due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting fair value and therefore the fund’s results of operations.
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The levels associated with valuing the fund’s investments are disclosed in the fund’s Portfolio Holdings.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
(b) Accounting Policies for certain Portfolio Investments (if held):
Futures Contracts: Futures contracts are instruments that represent an agreement between two parties that obligates one party to buy, and the other party to sell, specific instruments at an agreed upon price on a stipulated future date. The fund must give the broker a deposit of cash and/or securities (initial margin) whenever it enters into a futures contract. The amount of the deposit may vary from one contract to another. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or received by the fund depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the futures contract and are accounted for as unrealized appreciation or depreciation until the contract is closed, at which time the gains or losses are realized. Futures contracts are traded publicly on exchanges, and their value may change daily.
Cash Investments: The fund may invest a portion of its assets in cash. Cash includes cash bank balances in an interest-bearing demand deposit account with maturity on demand by the fund.
Securities Lending: Under the trust’s Securities Lending Program, the fund (lender) may make short-term loans of its securities to another party (borrower) to generate additional revenue for the fund. The borrower pledges collateral in the form of cash, securities issued or fully guaranteed by the U.S. government or foreign governments, or letters of credit issued by a bank. Collateral at the individual loan level is required to be maintained on a daily marked-to-market basis in an amount at least equal to the current value of the securities loaned. The lending agent provides the fund with indemnification against borrower default (the borrower fails to return the security on loan) reducing the risk of loss as a result of default. The cash collateral of securities loaned is currently invested in money market portfolios operating pursuant to Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. The fund bears the risk of loss with respect to the investment of cash collateral. The terms of the securities lending agreement allow the fund or the lending agent to terminate any loan at any given time and the securities must be returned within the earlier of the standard trade settlement period or the specified time period under the relevant securities lending agreement. Securities lending income, as disclosed in the fund’s Statement of Operations, if applicable, represents the income earned from the investment of the cash collateral plus any fees paid by borrowers, less the fees paid to the lending agent and broker rebates which are subject to adjustments pursuant to the securities lending agreement. On loans not collateralized by cash, a fee is received from the borrower, and is allocated between the fund and the lending agent. The aggregate market value of securities loaned will not at any time exceed one-third of the total assets of the fund, including collateral received from the loan. Securities lending fees paid to the unaffiliated lending agent start at 9% of gross lending revenue, with subsequent breakpoints to a low of 5%. In this context, the gross lending revenue equals the income received from the investment of cash collateral and fees paid by borrowers less any rebates paid to the borrowers. Any expenses charged by the cash collateral fund are in addition to these fees. All remaining revenue is retained by the fund, as applicable. No portion of lending revenue is paid to or retained by the investment adviser or any of its affiliates.
As of August 31, 2026, the fund had securities on loan, all of which were classified as common stocks. The value of securities on loan and the related collateral as of August 31, 2026, are disclosed in the fund’s Portfolio Holdings and Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Passive Foreign Investment Companies: The fund may own shares in certain foreign corporations that meet the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, definition of a Passive Foreign Investment Company (PFIC). The fund may elect for tax purposes to mark-to-market annually the shares of each PFIC lot held and would be required to distribute as ordinary income to shareholders any such marked-to-market gains (as well as any gains realized on sale).
Central Securities Depositories Regulation: The Central Securities Depositories Regulation (CSDR) introduced measures for the authorization and supervision of European Union Central Security Depositories and created a common set of prudential, organizational, and conduct of business standards at a European level. CSDR is designed to support securities settlement and operational aspects of securities settlement, including the provision of shorter settlement periods; mandatory buy-ins; and cash penalties, to prevent and address settlement fails. CSDR measures are aimed to prevent settlement fails by ensuring that all transaction details are provided to facilitate settlement, as well as further incentivizing timely settlement by imposing cash penalty fines and buy-ins. The fund may be subject to pay cash penalties and may also receive cash penalties with certain counterparties in instances where there are settlement fails. These cash penalties are included in net realized gains (losses) on sales of securities - unaffiliated issuers in the fund’s Statement of Operations, if any.
(c) Security Transactions:
Security transactions are recorded as of the date the order to buy or sell the security is executed. Realized gains and losses from security transactions are based on the identified costs of the securities involved.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are reported in U.S. dollars. For assets and liabilities held on a given date, the dollar value is based on market exchange rates in effect on that date. Transactions involving foreign currencies, including purchases, sales, income receipts and expense payments, are calculated using exchange rates in effect on the transaction date. Realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and the differences between the recorded amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange appreciation or depreciation arises from changes in foreign exchange rates on foreign denominated assets and liabilities other than investments in securities held at the end of the reporting period. These realized and unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses are reported in foreign currency transactions or translations, if any, in the fund’s Statement of Operations. The fund does not isolate the portion of the fluctuations on investments resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rates from the fluctuations in market prices of investments held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments, if any.
Gains realized by the fund on the sale of securities in certain foreign countries may be subject to non-U.S. taxes. In those instances, the fund records a liability based on unrealized appreciation to provide for potential non-U.S. taxes payable upon the sale of these securities. These capital gain taxes, if any, are paid by the fund and are disclosed in the fund’s Statement of Operations in Net realized gain (losses) on securities — unaffiliated issuers (net of foreign capital gains tax paid). Foreign capital gain taxes accrued as of August 31, 2026, if any, are reflected in the fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
When the fund closes out a futures contract position, it calculates the difference between the value of the position at the beginning and at the end of the contract, and records a realized gain or loss accordingly.
The fund invests in real estate investment trusts (REITs) which report information on the source of their distributions annually. The fund’s policy is to record all REIT distributions initially as dividend income on the ex-dividend date and then re-designate them as return of capital and/or capital gain distributions at the end of the reporting period based on information provided annually by each REIT, and management estimates such re-designations when actual information has not yet been reported.
(d) Investment Income:
Interest income is recorded as it accrues. Dividends and distributions from portfolio securities and underlying funds are recorded on the date they are effective (the ex-dividend date), although the fund records certain foreign security dividends on the date the ex-dividend date is confirmed. Non-cash dividends in the form of additional securities are recorded on the ex-dividend date at fair value, if any. 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 and there are no significant uncertainties on collectibility 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. Foreign withholding tax expensed during the period, if any, is disclosed in Dividends received from securities — unaffiliated issuers (net of foreign withholding tax) in the Statement of Operations and is representative of taxes paid during the period.
(e) Expenses:
Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement between the investment adviser and the trust, the investment adviser pays the operating expenses of the fund, excluding acquired fund fees and expenses, taxes, any brokerage expenses, and extraordinary or non-routine expenses. Taxes, any brokerage expenses and extraordinary or non-routine expenses that are specific to the fund are charged directly to the fund. Acquired fund fees and expenses are indirect expenses incurred by a fund through its investments in underlying funds and are reflected in the net asset values of the underlying funds.
(f) Distributions to Shareholders:
The fund makes distributions from net investment income, if any, quarterly and from net realized capital gains, if any, once a year. To receive a distribution, you must be a registered shareholder on the record date. Distributions are paid to shareholders on the payable date.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
(g) Accounting Estimates:
The accounting policies described in this report conform to GAAP. Notwithstanding this, shareholders should understand that in order to follow these principles, fund management has to make estimates and assumptions that affect the information reported in the financial statements. It’s possible that once the results are known, they may turn out to be different from these estimates and these differences may be material.
(h) Federal Income Taxes:
The fund intends to meet federal income and excise tax requirements for regulated investment companies under subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended. Accordingly, the fund distributes substantially all of its net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, to its shareholders each year. As long as the fund meets the tax requirements, it is not required to pay federal income tax. The fund did not pay any federal taxes during the period.
(i) Foreign Taxes:
The fund may be subject to foreign taxes (a portion of which may be reclaimable) on investment income, corporate events, foreign currency exchanges and capital gains on investments. All foreign taxes are recorded in accordance with the applicable foreign tax regulations and rates that exist in foreign markets in which the fund invests. These foreign taxes, if any, are paid by the fund and are disclosed in the fund’s Statement of Operations and Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
(j) Segment Reporting:
An operating segment is defined in ASC Topic 280 Segment Reporting as a component of a public entity that engages in business activities from which it may recognize revenues and incur expenses, has operating results that are regularly reviewed by the public entity’s chief operating decision maker (CODM) to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and has discrete financial information available.
The management committee of the fund’s investment adviser acts as the fund’s CODM. The CODM has determined that the fund operates as a single operating segment given the fund has a single defined investment strategy disclosed in its respective prospectus. The discrete financial information in the form of the fund’s portfolio composition, total returns, expense ratios and changes in net assets (i.e., changes in net assets resulting from operations, shares sold and shares redeemed), which is used by the CODM to assess performance against the prospectus and to make resource allocation decisions with respect to the fund, is presented within the fund’s financial statements.
(k) Indemnification:
Under the fund’s organizational documents, the officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the fund. In addition, in the normal course of business the fund enters into contracts with its vendors and others that provide general indemnifications. The fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the fund. However, based on experience, the fund expects the risk of loss attributable to these arrangements to be remote.
3. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions:
Investment Adviser
Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc., dba Schwab Asset Management, a wholly owned subsidiary of The Charles Schwab Corporation, serves as the fund’s investment adviser and administrator pursuant to the Amended and Restated Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement between the investment adviser and the trust.
For its advisory and administrative services to the fund, the investment adviser is entitled to receive an annual fee, payable monthly, equal to 0.39% of the fund’s average daily net assets.
Interfund Transactions
The fund may engage in direct transactions with other funds in the Schwab Funds Complex in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees pursuant to Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act. When one fund is seeking to sell a security that another fund is seeking to buy, an interfund transaction can allow both funds to benefit by reducing transaction costs while allowing each fund to execute the transaction at the current market price. This practice is limited to funds that share the same investment adviser. The net

Financial Notes, unaudited (continued)
3. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions (continued):
realized gains or losses on sales of interfund transactions are recorded in Net realized gains (losses) on sales of securities — unaffiliated issuers in the Statement of Operations. For the period ended August 31, 2026, the fund’s purchases and sales of securities with other funds in the Schwab Funds Complex was $2,175,433 and $907,090, respectively, and includes net realized gains of $41,514.
Interfund Borrowing and Lending
Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, the fund may enter into interfund borrowing and lending transactions with other funds in the Schwab Funds Complex. All loans are for temporary or emergency purposes and the interest rate to be charged will be the average of the overnight repurchase agreement rate and the short-term bank loan rate. All loans are subject to numerous conditions designed to ensure fair and equitable treatment of all participating funds. The interfund lending facility is subject to the oversight and periodic review by the Board of Trustees. The fund had no interfund borrowing or lending activity during the period.
4. Board of Trustees:
The Board of Trustees may include people who are officers and/or directors of the investment adviser or its affiliates. Federal securities law limits the percentage of such “interested persons” who may serve on a trust’s board, and the trust was in compliance with these limitations throughout the report period. The fund did not pay any interested persons or non-interested persons (independent trustees). The independent trustees are paid by the investment adviser pursuant to the Amended and Restated Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement where the investment adviser pays the operational expenses of the fund which includes trustee fees.
5. Borrowing from Banks:
During the period, the fund was a participant with other funds in the Schwab Funds Complex in a joint, syndicated, committed $1.2 billion line of credit (the Syndicated Credit Facility), maturing on October 22, 2026. Under the terms of the Syndicated Credit Facility, in addition to the investment adviser paying the interest charged on any borrowings by the fund, the investment adviser paid a commitment fee of 0.15% per annum on the fund’s proportionate share of the unused portion of the Syndicated Credit Facility.
During the period, the fund was a participant with other funds in the Schwab Funds Complex in a joint, unsecured, uncommitted $400 million line of credit (the Uncommitted Credit Facility) with State Street Bank and Trust Company, maturing on October 22, 2026. Under the terms of the Uncommitted Credit Facility, the investment adviser pays interest on the amount the fund borrows. There were no borrowings by the fund from either line of credit during the period.
The fund also has access to custodian overdraft facilities. The fund may have utilized the overdraft facility and incurred an interest expense, which is paid by the investment adviser, if any. The interest expense is determined based on a negotiated rate above the current Federal Funds Rate.
6. Derivatives:
The fund entered into futures contracts during the report period to equitize available cash.
As of August 31, 2026, the Statement of Assets and Liabilities included the following financial derivative instrument fair values held at period end:

8. Federal Income Taxes (continued):
Distributions paid to shareholders are based on net investment income and net realized gains determined on a tax basis, which may differ from net investment income and net realized gains for financial reporting purposes. These differences reflect the differing character of certain income items and net realized gains and losses for financial statement and tax purposes, and may result in reclassification among certain capital accounts in the financial statements. The fund may also designate a portion of the amount paid to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for tax purposes.
As of February 28, 2026, management has reviewed the tax positions for open periods (for federal purposes, three years from the date of filing and for state purposes, four years from the date of filing) as applicable to the fund, and has determined that no provision for income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements. During the fiscal year ended February 28, 2026, the fund did not incur any interest or penalties.
9. Subsequent Events:
Management has determined there are no subsequent events or transactions through the date the financial statements were issued that would have materially impacted the financial statements as presented.

Investment Advisory Agreement Approval
The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), requires that the continuation of a fund’s investment advisory agreement must be specifically approved (1) by the vote of the trustees or by a vote of the shareholders of the fund, and (2) by the vote of a majority of the trustees who are not parties to the investment advisory agreement or “interested persons” of any party thereto (the Independent Trustees), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. In connection with such approvals, the fund’s trustees must request and evaluate, and the investment adviser is required to furnish, such information as may be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the investment advisory agreement.
The Board of Trustees (the Board or the Trustees, as appropriate) calls and holds one or more meetings each year that are dedicated, in whole or in part, to considering whether to renew the investment advisory and administration agreement (the Agreement) between Schwab Capital Trust (the Trust) and Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (dba Schwab Asset Management) (the investment adviser) with respect to the existing funds in the Trust, including Schwab Fundamental Global Real Estate Index Fund (the Fund), and to review certain other agreements pursuant to which the investment adviser provides investment advisory services to certain other registered investment companies. In preparation for the meeting(s), the Board requests and reviews a wide variety of materials provided by the investment adviser, including information about the investment adviser’s affiliates, personnel, business goals and priorities, profitability, oversight of third-party service providers, corporate structure and operations. As part of the renewal process, the Independent Trustees’ legal counsel, on behalf of the Independent Trustees, sends an information request letter to the investment adviser seeking certain relevant information. The responses by the investment adviser are provided to the Trustees in the Board materials for their review prior to their meeting, and the Trustees are provided with the opportunity to request any additional materials. The Board also receives data provided by an independent provider of investment company data. This information is in addition to the detailed information about the Fund that the Board reviews during the course of each year, including information that relates to the Fund’s operations and performance, legal and compliance matters, risk management, portfolio turnover, and sales and marketing activity. In considering the renewal, the Independent Trustees receive advice from Independent Trustees’ legal counsel, including a memorandum regarding the responsibilities of trustees for the approval of investment advisory agreements. In addition, the Independent Trustees participate in question and answer sessions with representatives of the investment adviser and meet in executive session outside the presence of Fund management.
The Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, considered information specifically relating to the continuance of the Agreement with respect to the Fund at meetings held on May 6, 2026 and June 10, 2026, and approved the renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Fund for an additional one-year term at the meeting on June 10, 2026 called for the purpose of voting on such approval.
The Board’s approval of the continuance of the Agreement with respect to the Fund was based on consideration and evaluation of a variety of specific factors discussed at these meetings and at prior meetings, including:
1.
the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund under the Agreement, including the resources of the investment adviser and its affiliates dedicated to the Fund;
2.
the Fund’s investment performance and how it compared to that of certain other comparable mutual funds and benchmark data;
3.
the Fund’s expenses and how those expenses compared to those of certain other similar mutual funds;
4.
the profitability of the investment adviser and its affiliates, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (Schwab), with respect to the Fund, including both direct and indirect benefits accruing to the investment adviser and its affiliates; and
5.
the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Fund grows and whether fee levels in the Agreement reflect those economies of scale for the benefit of Fund investors.
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Board considered the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the investment adviser to the Fund and the resources of the investment adviser and its affiliates dedicated to the Fund. In this regard, the Trustees evaluated, among other things, the investment adviser’s experience, track record, compliance program, resources dedicated to hiring and retaining skilled personnel and specialized talent, and information security resources. The Trustees also considered information provided by the investment adviser relating to services and support provided with respect to the Fund’s portfolio management team, portfolio strategy, and internal investment guidelines, as well as trading infrastructure, liquidity management, product design and analysis, shareholder communications, securities valuation, and vendor and risk oversight. The Trustees also considered the investment adviser’s continued investment in its infrastructure, including the investment adviser’s technology and use of data (including artificial intelligence tools), business continuity, cybersecurity, due diligence, risk management processes, and information security programs.

The Trustees considered Schwab’s overall financial condition and its reputation as a full service brokerage firm, as well as the wide range of products, services and account features that benefit Fund shareholders who are brokerage clients of Schwab. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the investment adviser to the Fund and the resources of the investment adviser and its affiliates dedicated to the Fund supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Fund.
Fund Performance. The Board considered the Fund’s performance in determining whether to renew the Agreement with respect to the Fund. Specifically, the Trustees considered the Fund’s performance relative to a peer category of other mutual funds and applicable indices/benchmarks, in light of total return and the market environment, as well as in consideration of the Fund’s investment style and strategy. As part of this review, the Trustees considered the composition of the peer category, selection criteria and the reputation of the independent provider of investment company data who prepared the peer category analysis. In evaluating the performance of the Fund, the Trustees considered the risk profile for the Fund and the Fund’s demonstrated performance in tracking its benchmark index. The Trustees noted that the Fund had closely tracked its index in 2025, performing in its expected performance range. The Trustees further considered the level of Fund performance in the context of their review of Fund expenses and the investment adviser’s profitability discussed below and also noted that the Board and a designated committee of the Board review performance throughout the year. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the performance of the Fund supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Fund.
Fund Expenses. With respect to the Fund’s expenses, the Board considered the rate of compensation called for by the Agreement and the Fund’s net operating expense ratio, in each case, in comparison to those of other similar mutual funds, such peer groups and comparisons having been selected and calculated by an independent provider of investment company data. The investment adviser reported to the Board, and the Board took into account, the risk assumed by the investment adviser in the development of the Fund and provision of services as well as the competitive marketplace for financial products. The Trustees also considered fees charged by the investment adviser to other mutual funds and exchange-traded funds that it manages. The Board evaluated the Fund’s unitary fee through review of comparative information with respect to fees paid by other similar funds tracking global real estate indexes. Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the expenses of the Fund are reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Fund.
Profitability. The Board considered the compensation flowing to the investment adviser and its affiliates, directly or indirectly and reviewed profitability on a pre-tax basis, without regard to distribution expenses. The Trustees reviewed profitability of the investment adviser relating to the Schwab fund complex as a whole, noting the benefits to Fund shareholders of being part of the Schwab fund complex, including the allocations of certain costs across the Fund and other funds in the complex. The Trustees also considered any other benefits derived by the investment adviser from its relationship with the Fund, such as whether, by virtue of its management of the Fund, the investment adviser obtains investment information or other research resources that aid it in providing advisory services to other clients. The Trustees considered whether the compensation and profitability with respect to the Fund under the Agreement and other service agreements were reasonable in light of the quality of all services rendered to the Fund by the investment adviser and its affiliates. The Trustees noted that the investment adviser continues to invest substantial sums in its business in order to provide enhanced research capabilities, services and systems to benefit the Fund. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the profitability of the investment adviser is reasonable and supported renewal of the Agreement with respect to the Fund.
Economies of Scale. Although the Board recognized the difficulty of determining economies of scale with precision, and although the Fund does not have breakpoints in its advisory fee, the Trustees considered the potential existence of any economies of scale by way of the relatively low unitary fee structure of the Fund and whether those are passed along to the Fund’s shareholders through (i) the enhancement of services provided to the Fund in return for fees paid, including through the investment adviser’s continued investment in its infrastructure, including technology and use of data (including artificial intelligence tools), increasing expertise and capabilities in key areas (including portfolio and trade operations), and improving business continuity, cybersecurity, due diligence, and information security programs, which are designed to provide enhanced services to the Fund and its shareholders; and (ii) pricing a fund to scale and keeping overall expenses down as the fund grows. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the Fund obtains reasonable benefits from economies of scale.

In the course of their deliberations, the Trustees may have accorded different weights to various factors and did not identify any particular information or factor that was all important or controlling. Based on the Trustees’ deliberation and their evaluation of the information described above, the Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, approved the continuation of the Agreement with respect to the Fund and concluded that the compensation under the Agreement with respect to the Fund is fair and reasonable in light of the
