Investment Goal and Strategy
Seeks to track the total return of the Dow Jones Wilshire 5000 Composite Index, which includes all U.S. publicly traded companies with readily available pricing data.

Schwab and the investment adviser have agreed to limit the fund's "net operating expenses" as stated in the prospectus for each fund, for so long as the investment adviser serves as the adviser to the fund. This agreement may only be amended or terminated with the approval of the fund's Board of Trustees. The limitation excludes interest, taxes, expenses for dividends and interest paid on securities sold short, and certain non-routine expenses, which may result in a fund incurring net operating expenses above the limitation.

Morningstar proprietary ratings reflect historical risk-adjusted performance as of 10/31/2009. For each fund with at least a three-year history, Morningstar calculates a Morningstar Rating™ based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure that accounts for variation in a fund's monthly performance (including the effects of sales charges, loads and redemption fees), placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. (Each share class is counted as a fraction of one fund within this scale and rated separately, which may cause slight variations in the distribution percentages.) The top 10% of the funds in an investment category receive 5 stars, 22.5% receive 4 stars, 35% receive 3 stars, the next 22.5% receive 2 stars, and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. The Overall Morningstar Rating is a weighted average of the funds' three-, five-, and 10-year (if applicable) Morningstar rating metrics. Morningstar 3-, 5-, and 10-year ratings for SWTSX are 3, 4 and 3 stars respectively. The total number of Large Blend funds for the three-, five-, and 10-year time periods were 1694, 1352 and 681 respectively.
