7 From the President Dear Shareholder, Marie Chandoha is President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. and the funds covered in this report. At Charles Schwab Investment Management, our goal is to provide foundational products with consistent performance that enable investors to build well-diversified portfolios. The Schwab Target Funds are managed according to projected retirement dates and rebalanced to become more conservative as a target date approaches and beyond. Within each fund is a mix of active, passive, proprietary, and third-party strategies, seeking to provide diversification. For the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2015, the funds generated returns that generally reflected positive returns for U.S. stocks and flat returns for broad international equity indexes amid market volatility. The funds performance included positive returns for some of the underlying investment strategies. For near-dated funds, returns reflected their more conservative positioning and lower exposure to volatile investment areas during the period compared with the longer-dated funds. Despite market volatility later in the period stimulated by concern about global growth and speculation that the Fed might raise interest rates, the S&P 500 Index returned 5.2% for the period. The bond market generated modest returns amid the low interest rate environment, relatively stable credit conditions and limited inflation. Reflecting these conditions, the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index returned 2.0%. Outside the U.S., turbulence in Greece, China, and select emerging markets translated into challenges that reduced returns in U.S. dollar terms as Asset Class Performance Comparison % returns during the 12 months ended 10/31/2015 This graph compares the performance of various asset classes during the report period.

8 From the President continued For the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2015, the funds generated returns that generally reflected positive returns for U.S. stocks and flat returns for broad international equity indexes amid market volatility. commodities prices fell globally. Meanwhile, lackluster global economic growth led to differences in central bank policies, particularly between those of the U.S., Japan, and the euro zone. This caused foreign currencies to depreciate versus the U.S. dollar, particularly among emerging markets, reducing returns in U.S. dollar terms. As a result, the MSCI EAFE Index (Net), which broadly represents the performance of international stocks, returned -0.1%. 1 For more information about the Schwab Target Funds, please continue reading this report.

Schwab Target Funds 5
10 Schwab Target 2010 Fund The Schwab Target 2010 Fund (the 2010 Fund) seeks to provide capital appreciation and income consistent with its current asset allocation, and seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing primarily in a combination of other Schwab Funds and Laudus Funds. The 2010 Fund may also invest in unaffiliated third-party mutual funds. The target asset allocation is adjusted annually by the investment adviser; as of the last annual adjustment effective January 12, 2015, the 2010 Fund s asset allocation was approximately 38.1% equity securities, 55.4% fixed income securities, and 6.5% cash and cash equivalents (including money market funds). (For portfolio allocations as of the end of this reporting period, please see the 2010 Fund s Portfolio Holdings included in this report.) Market Highlights. U.S. stocks posted modest gains for the 12-month report period on mixed economic data, with large-cap stocks solidly outperforming small-cap stocks. Despite some signs of continued economic recovery, growth was weaker than expected and interest rates remained low as the Federal Reserve pushed back the timing of its widely anticipated interest rate hike. Slowing growth in China weighed on global markets, as did declining energy and metals prices. Against this backdrop, the U.S. dollar was strong, reducing returns of international investments in U.S. dollar terms. Performance. For the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2015, the 2010 Fund returned 2.03%. The 2010 Fund s internally calculated comparative index, the Target 2010 Composite Index (the composite index), returned 2.26%. Positioning and Strategies. The 2010 Fund s asset allocations were broadly in line with those of the composite index over the reporting period. The 2010 Fund s U.S. equity exposures provided the greatest contribution to total return, particularly among large-caps. The top contributor was the Laudus U.S. Large Cap Growth Fund. The Schwab Core Equity Fund and the Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund also contributed notably. On a relative basis, both the Laudus U.S. Large Cap Growth Fund and the Schwab Core Equity Fund outperformed the composite index s U.S. equity allocation component, the S&P 500 Index, which returned 5.2%; the remaining four positions, while underperforming the comparative index by various degrees, all contributed positively to the 2010 Fund s total return. Among small-cap holdings, the Laudus Small-Cap MarketMasters Fund (Select Shares) detracted from the 2010 Fund s absolute and relative performance, while the Schwab Small-Cap Equity Fund enhanced both absolute and relative performance, outperforming the Russell 2000 Index by 2.7%. The 2010 Fund s international equity allocation contributed modestly to total return, reflecting the weak performance of international stocks. The largest positive contribution came from the Schwab International Core Equity Fund. On a relative basis, both the Schwab International Core Equity Fund and the Laudus International MarketMasters Fund (Select Shares) outperformed the composite index s international equity allocation component, the MSCI EAFE Index (Net), which returned -0.1%. The 2010 Fund s U.S. fixed income allocation also contributed to total return. The greatest contribution came from the Schwab Total Bond Market Fund, the 2010 Fund s largest position, although it underperformed the 2.0% return of the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, the composite index s U.S. fixed income component, detracting from relative performance. With investment-grade bonds and TIPS posting negative returns for the period, the 2010 Fund s positions in the Schwab Treasury Inflation Protected Securities Index Fund and the Loomis Sayles Investment Grade Bond Fund detracted from total return.

Schwab Target Funds 11
16 Schwab Target 2025 Fund The Schwab Target 2025 Fund (the 2025 Fund) seeks to provide capital appreciation and income consistent with its current asset allocation, and seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing primarily in a combination of other Schwab Funds and Laudus Funds. The 2025 Fund may also invest in unaffiliated third-party mutual funds. The target asset allocation is adjusted annually by the investment adviser; as of the last annual adjustment effective January 12, 2015, the 2025 Fund s asset allocation was approximately 65.0% equity securities, 31.7% fixed income securities, and 3.3% cash and cash equivalents (including money market funds). At its target date, the 2025 Fund s allocation will be approximately 40.0% equity securities, 54.0% fixed income securities, and 6.0% cash and cash equivalents (including money market funds). (For portfolio allocations as of the end of this reporting period, please see the 2025 Fund s Portfolio Holdings included in this report.) Market Highlights. U.S. stocks posted modest gains for the 12-month report period on mixed economic data, with large-cap stocks solidly outperforming small-cap stocks. Despite some signs of continued economic recovery, growth was weaker than expected and interest rates remained low as the Federal Reserve pushed back the timing of its widely anticipated interest rate hike. Slowing growth in China weighed on global markets, as did declining energy and metals prices. Against this backdrop, the U.S. dollar was strong, reducing returns of international investments in U.S. dollar terms. Performance. For the 12-month reporting period ended October 31, 2015, the 2025 Fund returned 2.36%. The 2025 Fund s internally calculated comparative index, the Target 2025 Composite Index (the composite index), returned 2.68%. Positioning and Strategies. The 2025 Fund s asset allocations were broadly in line with those of the composite index over the reporting period. The 2025 Fund s U.S. equity exposures provided the greatest contribution to total return, particularly among large-caps. The top contributor was the Laudus U.S. Large Cap Growth Fund. The Schwab Core Equity Fund and the Schwab S&P 500 Index Fund also contributed notably. On a relative basis, both the Laudus U.S. Large Cap Growth Fund and the Schwab Core Equity Fund outperformed the composite index s U.S. equity allocation component, the S&P 500 Index, which returned 5.2%; the remaining four positions, while underperforming the S&P 500 Index by various degrees, all contributed positively to the 2025 Fund s total return. Among small-cap holdings, the Laudus Small-Cap MarketMasters Fund (Select Shares) detracted from the 2025 Fund s absolute and relative performance, while the Schwab Small-Cap Equity Fund enhanced both absolute and relative performance, outperforming the Russell 2000 Index by 2.7%. The 2025 Fund s international equity allocation contributed modestly to total return, reflecting the weak performance of international stocks. The largest positive contribution came from the Schwab International Core Equity Fund. On a relative basis, both the Schwab International Core Equity Fund and the Laudus International MarketMasters Fund (Select Shares) outperformed the composite index s international equity allocation component, the MSCI EAFE Index (Net), which returned -0.1%. With emerging markets particularly hard-hit for the reporting period, a small position in the Laudus Mondrian Emerging Markets Institutional Fund detracted from both total and relative returns, underperforming the -14.5% return of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (Net). The 2025 Fund s U.S. fixed income allocation also contributed to total return. The greatest contribution came from the Schwab Total Bond Market Fund, the 2025 Fund s largest position, although it underperformed the 2.0% return of the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, the composite index s U.S. fixed income component, detracting from relative performance. With investment-grade bonds and TIPS posting negative returns for the period, small positions in the Schwab Treasury Inflation Protected Securities Index Fund and the Loomis Sayles Investment Grade Bond Fund detracted from total return.
