Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

INTRODUCTION

The Charles Schwab Corporation (CSC) is a savings and loan holding company engaged, through its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as “Schwab” or the “Company”), in wealth management, securities brokerage, banking, asset management, custody, and financial advisory services.

Significant business subsidiaries of CSC include the following:


•	Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (CS&Co), a securities broker-dealer;


•	Charles Schwab Bank (CSB), a federal savings bank; and


•	Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (CSIM), the investment advisor for Schwab’s proprietary mutual funds (Schwab Funds^®) and Schwab’s exchange-traded funds (Schwab ETFs™).

Unless otherwise indicated, the terms “Schwab,” “the Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our” mean CSC together with its consolidated subsidiaries.

Schwab provides financial services to individuals and institutional clients through two segments – Investor Services and Advisor Services. The Investor Services segment provides retail brokerage and banking services to individual investors, and retirement plan services, as well as other corporate brokerage services, to businesses and their employees. The Advisor Services segment provides custodial, trading, banking, and support services, as well as retirement business services, to independent registered investment advisors (RIAs), independent retirement advisors, and recordkeepers.

Schwab was founded on the belief that all Americans deserve access to a better investing experience. Although much has changed in the intervening years, our purpose remains clear – to champion every client’s goals with passion and integrity. Guided by this purpose and the aspiration of creating the most trusted leader in investment services, management has adopted a strategy described as “Through Clients’ Eyes.”

This strategy emphasizes placing clients’ perspectives, needs, and desires at the forefront. Because investing plays a fundamental role in building financial security, we strive to deliver a better investing experience for our clients – individual investors and the people and institutions who serve them – by disrupting longstanding industry practices on their behalf and providing superior service. We also aim to offer a broad range of products and solutions to meet client needs with a focus on transparency, value, and trust. In addition, management works to couple Schwab’s scale and resources with ongoing expense discipline to keep costs low and ensure that products and solutions are affordable as well as responsive to client needs. In combination, these are the key elements of our “no trade-offs” approach to serving investors. We believe that following this strategy is the best way to maximize our market valuation and stockholder returns over time.

Management estimates that investable wealth in the United States (consisting of assets in defined contribution, retail wealth management and brokerage, and registered investment advisor channels, along with bank deposits) currently exceeds $45 trillion, which means the Company’s $3.40 trillion in client assets leaves substantial opportunity for growth. Our strategy is based on the principle that developing trusted relationships will translate into more assets from both new and existing clients, ultimately driving more revenue, and along with expense discipline, will generate earnings growth and build long-term stockholder value.

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 (2017 Form 10-K).

On our website, www.aboutschwab.com, we post the following filings after they are electronically filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC): annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, and any amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange

	Three Months Ended June 30,						Percent Change		Six Months Ended June 30,						Percent Change
	2018			2017			Percent Change		2018			2017			Percent Change
Client Metrics:

Active brokerage accounts (in thousands, at quarter end)	11,202			10,487			7	%
Assets receiving ongoing advisory services (in billions, at quarter end)	$	1,768.7		$	1,539.8		15	%
Client cash as a percentage of client assets (at quarter end)	10.7		%	11.5		%
Company Financial Metrics:
Total net revenues	$	2,486		$	2,130		17	%	$	4,884		$	4,211		16	%

Consolidated Tier 1 Leverage Ratio (at quarter end)	7.6		%	7.4		%

⁽¹⁾Includes outflows of $9.5 billion and $93.9 billion in the second quarter and first six months of 2018, respectively, from certain mutual fund clearing services clients.

Net income grew 51% and 45% for the second quarter and first six months of 2018, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2017, driven primarily by sustained business momentum, higher interest rates, and lower corporate income taxes. Total net revenues rose 17% and 16% in the second quarter and first six months of 2018, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2017, primarily due to higher net interest revenue as a result of higher interest rates and larger client cash sweep balances. Total expenses excluding interest grew 11% and 12% during the second quarter and first six months of 2018, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2017, reflecting higher spending to support the expanding client base and ongoing investments to fuel growth. Altogether, we achieved a 570 basis point gap between revenue and expense growth, which resulted in a 45.5% and 43.7% pre-tax profit margin for the second quarter and first six months of 2018, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2017.

Taxes on income decreased 21% for both the second quarter and first six months of 2018 resulting in effective tax rates of 23.4% and 22.7% for the second quarter and first six months of 2018, respectively. The reduction in taxes on income was due to the Tax Act of 2017, which lowered the federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018.

We delivered net income of $866 million and $1.6 billion for the second quarter and first six months of 2018, respectively, up $291 million and $510 million from a year ago, lifting our return on equity to 19% for the second quarter and first six months of 2018 compared to 15% for the same periods in 2017.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

(Tabular Amounts in Millions, Except Ratios, or as Noted)

During the second quarter of 2018, clients opened 384,000 new brokerage accounts, helping to bring active brokerage accounts to 11.2 million at June 30, 2018. Excluding planned mutual funding clearing outflows of $9.5 billion, core net new assets gathered during the second quarter of 2018 were $53.4 billion, compared to $46.2 billion for the same period a year ago. Client engagement remained strong during the second quarter of 2018, with daily average revenue trades rising 21% from the same period in 2017.

Effective balance sheet management remains an essential element of our financial discipline. In the second quarter, we issued $1.95 billion of Senior Notes, which we used to redeem $275 million of maturing debt and maintain appropriate liquidity given the growth we’re achieving. We also transferred an additional $20 billion in the second quarter of 2018 from sweep money market funds to bank sweep deposits, bringing the total year-to-date transferred amount to $45 billion. As anticipated, we crossed the $250 billion asset threshold for heightened regulatory requirements during the second quarter of 2018, ending with $262 billion in total consolidated assets at June 30, 2018.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

(Tabular Amounts in Millions, Except Ratios, or as Noted)

Net interest revenue increased $354 million, or 34%, and $617 million, or 30%, in the second quarter and first six months of 2018, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2017, primarily due to higher interest rates and growth in interest-earning assets.

Our net interest margin improved to 2.30% and 2.21% during the second quarter and first six months of 2018, respectively, up from 1.96% and 1.91% during the same periods in 2017, primarily as a result of the Federal Reserve System’s (Federal Reserve) 2017 and March and June 2018 interest rate hikes, partially offset by higher interest rates paid on bank deposits and other interest-bearing liabilities.

During the second quarter and the first six months of 2018, average interest earning assets grew 13% and 11%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2017. These increases reflect higher bank deposits due to transfers from sweep money market funds to bank sweep balances, as well as other client-related deposit inflows and higher borrowings, partially offset by client purchases of other assets.

In addition to issuing the Senior Notes, we utilized Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) advances during the first half of 2018 to provide temporary funding for additional investments ahead of deposit growth. The FHLB advances matured by June 30, 2018.

Asset management and administration fees decreased by $31 million, or 4%, and $3 million, or 0.2%, in the second quarter and first six months of 2018, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2017. The decreases were due to lower money market fund revenue as a result of transfers to bank sweep, client asset allocation choices, and our 2017 fee reductions. Part of the declines were offset by revenue from growing asset balances in advice solutions, equity and bond funds, and ETFs.

Trading Revenue

The following table presents trading revenue and the related drivers:



	Three Months Ended June 30,				Percent Change		Six Months Ended June 30,				Percent Change
	2018		2017		Percent Change		2018		2017		Percent Change
Daily average revenue trades (DARTs) (in thousands)	376		311		21	%	418		314		33	%
Clients’ daily average trades (in thousands)	704		589		20	%	757		587		29	%

Trading revenue	$	180	$	157	15	%	$	381	$	349	9	%

DART volumes increased 21% and 33% in the second quarter and first six months of 2018, respectively, compared to the prior year. This led to an increase in trading revenue of $23 million, or 15%, and $32 million, or 9%, in the second quarter and first six months of 2018, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2017, as the volume growth more than offset Schwab’s commission pricing reductions implemented in the first quarter of 2017. During that time, Schwab announced two trading price reductions which lowered standard equity, ETF, and option trade commissions from $8.95 to $4.95 and lowered the per contract option fee from $.75 to $.65.

Other Revenue

Other revenue includes order flow revenue, other service fees, software fees from our portfolio management solutions, exchange processing fees, and non-recurring gains. Order flow revenue was $33 million and $26 million during the second quarters of 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $71 million and $53 million during the first six months of 2018 and 2017, respectively. These increases were primarily due to higher rates on certain types of orders and higher volume of trades.

Total compensation and benefits increased in the second quarter and first six months of 2018 compared to the same periods in 2017, primarily due to an increase in employee headcount to support our expanding client base.

Professional services expense increased in the second quarter and first six months of 2018 compared to the same periods in 2017, primarily due to an increase in asset management and administration-related expenses resulting from growth in the Schwab Funds^® and Schwab ETFs™ and higher spending on technology projects.

Occupancy and equipment expense increased in the second quarter and first six months of 2018 compared to the same periods in 2017, primarily due to an increase in software maintenance expenses and additional licenses to support growth in the business.

Depreciation and amortization expenses grew in the second quarter and first six months of 2018 compared to the same periods in 2017, primarily due to higher amortization of internally developed software associated with continued investments in software and technology enhancements.

Regulatory fees and assessments increased in the second quarter and first six months of 2018 compared to the same periods in 2017, primarily due to an increase in Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insurance assessments, which rose as a result of higher average assets.

Other expenses increased in the first six months of 2018 compared to the same period in 2017, primarily due to a $15 million charge in the first quarter of 2018 associated with unsecured client margin losses in volatility-related products and other miscellaneous expense growth related to the expanding client base.

Capital expenditures were $126 million and $261 million in the second quarter and first six months of 2018, respectively, compared with $86 million and $153 million in the second quarter and first six months of 2017, respectively. The increases in the second quarter and year-to-date capital expenditures from the same periods in 2017 were due primarily to our office campus

expansion in the U.S. and investments in technology projects. As we continue to pursue our geographic strategy, we anticipate increasing capital expenditures for full-year 2018 from our typical range of 3-5% of total net revenues to approximately 6-7%.

Taxes on Income

Taxes on income were $265 million and $334 million for the second quarters of 2018 and 2017, respectively, resulting in effective income tax rates on income before taxes of 23.4% and 36.7%, respectively. Taxes on income were $484 million and $613 million for the first six months of 2018 and 2017, respectively, resulting in effective income tax rates on income before taxes of 22.7% and 35.0%, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily due to the Tax Act which was signed into law on December 22, 2017. Among other things, the Tax Act lowered the federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%, effective for tax years including or commencing January 1, 2018.

Total net revenues rose by 18% in both the second quarter and first six months of 2018 compared to the same periods in 2017, primarily due to an increase in net interest revenue. Net interest revenue increased due to higher net interest margins and higher interest-earning assets.

Expenses excluding interest increased by 11% in both the second quarter and first six months of 2018 compared to the same periods in 2017, primarily due to higher compensation and benefits, technology project spend, and asset management and administration-related expenses to support our expanding client base.

Advisor Services

Total net revenues rose by 12% in both the second quarter and first six months of 2018 compared to the same periods in 2017, primarily due to an increase in net interest revenue, partially offset by lower asset management and administration fees. Net interest revenue increased due to higher net interest margins and higher interest-earning assets. Asset management and administration fees decreased primarily due to lower money market fund revenue as a result of transfers to bank sweep, client asset allocation choices, and our 2017 fee reductions.

Expenses excluding interest increased by 12% and 13% in the second quarter and first six months of 2018, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2017, primarily due to higher compensation and benefits, technology project spend, and asset management and administration-related expenses to support our expanding client base.

RISK MANAGEMENT

Schwab’s business activities expose us to a variety of risks, including operational, credit, market, liquidity, and compliance risk. The Company has a comprehensive risk management program to identify and manage these risks and their associated potential for financial and reputational impact. For a discussion of our risk management programs, see Item 7 – Risk Management in the 2017 Form 10-K.

Net Interest Revenue Simulation

For Schwab’s net interest revenue sensitivity analysis, we use net interest revenue simulation modeling techniques to evaluate and manage the effect of changing interest rates. The simulation includes all interest-sensitive assets and liabilities. Key variables in the simulation include the repricing of financial instruments, prepayment, reinvestment, and product pricing assumptions. The simulations involve assumptions that are inherently uncertain and, as a result, cannot precisely estimate the impact of changes in interest rates on net interest revenue. Actual results may differ from simulated results due to balance growth or decline and the timing, magnitude, and frequency of interest rate changes, as well as changes in market conditions and management strategies, including changes in asset and liability mix.

If our guidelines for net interest revenue sensitivity are breached, management must report the breach to the Financial Risk Oversight Committee and establish a plan to address the interest rate risk. There were no breaches of Schwab’s net interest revenue sensitivity risk limits during the six months ended June 30, 2018, or year ended December 31, 2017.

As represented by the simulations presented below, our investment strategy is structured to produce an increase in net interest revenue when interest rates rise and, conversely, a decrease in net interest revenue when interest rates fall.

The simulations in the following table assume that the asset and liability structure of the consolidated balance sheets would not be changed as a result of the simulated changes in interest rates. As we actively manage the consolidated balance sheets and interest rate exposure, in all likelihood we would take steps to manage additional interest rate exposure that could result from changes in the interest rate environment. The following table shows the simulated net interest revenue change over the next 12 months beginning June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 of a gradual 100 basis point increase or decrease in market interest rates relative to prevailing market rates at the end of each reporting period:



	June 30, 2018		December 31, 2017
Increase of 100 basis points	3.1	%	3.3	%
Decrease of 100 basis points	(4.8	)%	(6.2	)%

The change in net interest revenue sensitivities as of June 30, 2018 reflects the increase in interest rates across all maturities.

Liquidity Risk

Schwab’s primary source of funds is cash generated by client activity: bank deposits and cash balances in client brokerage accounts. These funds are used to purchase investment securities and extend loans to clients.

Other sources of funds may include cash flows from operations, maturities and sales of investment securities, repayments on loans, securities lending of assets held in client brokerage accounts, and cash provided by external debt or equity financing.

To meet daily funding needs, we maintain liquidity in the form of overnight cash deposits and short-term investments. For unanticipated liquidity needs, a buffer of highly liquid investments, currently comprised of U.S. Treasury notes, is also maintained.

In addition to internal sources of liquidity, Schwab has access to external funding. The following table describes external debt facilities available at June 30, 2018:



Description	Borrower	Outstanding		Available
Committed, unsecured credit facility with various external banks	CSC	$	—	$	750
Uncommitted, unsecured lines of credit with various external banks	CSC, CS&Co	—		1,432
Federal Reserve Bank discount window ⁽¹⁾	CSB	—		2,455
Federal Home Loan Bank secured credit facility ⁽²⁾	CSB	—		30,323
Unsecured commercial paper ⁽³⁾	CSC	—		750

⁽¹⁾Amounts available are dependent on the fair value of certain investment securities that are pledged as collateral.

⁽²⁾ Amounts available are dependent on the amount of first lien residential real estate mortgage loans (First Mortgages), home equity lines of credit (HELOCs), and the fair value of certain investment securities that are pledged as collateral.

⁽³⁾CSC has authorization from its Board of Directors to issue Commercial Paper Notes to not exceed $1.5 billion. Management has set a current limit not to exceed the amount of the committed, unsecured credit facility.

CSC’s ratings for Commercial Paper Notes are P1 by Moody’s Investor Service (Moody’s), A1 by Standard & Poor’s Rating Group (Standard & Poor’s), and F1 by Fitch Ratings, Ltd (Fitch).

Borrowings

The following are details of the Senior Notes and short-term borrowings:

New Debt Issuances

All debt issuances in 2018 were senior unsecured obligations with interest payable quarterly or semi-annually. Additional details are as follows:



Issuance Date	Issuance Amount		Maturity Date	Interest Rate	Interest Payable
May 22, 2018	$	600	5/21/2021	Three-month LIBOR + 0.32%	Quarterly

Schwab is subject to, and was in compliance with, the modified liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) rule at June 30, 2018. Schwab expects consolidated balance sheet assets to remain above $250 billion in 2018, and as a result, would become subject to the full LCR rule in 2019.

CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

Schwab seeks to manage capital to a level and composition sufficient to support execution of our business strategy, including anticipated balance sheet growth, providing financial support to our subsidiaries, and sustained access to the capital markets, while at the same time meeting our regulatory capital requirements, and serving as a source of financial strength to our banking subsidiaries. Schwab’s primary sources of capital are funds generated by the operations of subsidiaries and securities issuances by CSC in the capital markets. To ensure that Schwab has sufficient capital to absorb unanticipated losses or declines in asset values, we have adopted a policy to remain well capitalized even in stressed scenarios.

Regulatory Capital Requirements

CSC and CSB are subject to various capital requirements set by regulatory agencies as discussed in further detail in the 2017 Form 10-K and in Item 1 – Note 16. As of June 30, 2018, CSC and CSB are considered well capitalized.

The following table details CSC’s consolidated and CSB’s capital ratios as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017:

Tier 1 Leverage Ratio	7.6		%	7.2		%	7.6		%	7.1		%

⁽¹⁾CSC and CSB have elected to opt out of the requirement to include most components of accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) in Common Equity Tier 1 Capital. Schwab expects consolidated balance sheet assets to remain above $250 billion in 2018, and as a result, would no longer exclude AOCI from regulatory capital beginning in 2019.

CSB is also subject to regulatory requirements that restrict and govern the terms of affiliate transactions. In addition, CSB is required to provide notice to, and may be required to obtain approval from, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the Federal Reserve to declare dividends to CSC.

Schwab’s primary broker-dealer subsidiary, CS&Co, is subject to regulatory requirements of the Uniform Net Capital Rule. At June 30, 2018, CS&Co exceeded its net capital requirements.

In addition to the capital requirements above, Schwab’s subsidiaries are subject to other regulatory requirements intended to ensure financial soundness and liquidity. See Item 1 – Note 16 for additional information on the components of stockholders’ equity and information on the capital requirements of significant subsidiaries.

OTHER

Foreign Holdings

At June 30, 2018, Schwab had exposure to non-sovereign financial and non-financial institutions in foreign countries, as well as agencies of foreign governments. At June 30, 2018, the fair value of these holdings totaled $7.2 billion, with the top three exposures being to issuers and counterparties domiciled in Sweden at $2.0 billion, France at $1.5 billion, and Canada at $1.0 billion. Our holdings of securities issued by agencies of foreign governments are explicitly guaranteed by the governments of the issuing agencies.

In addition to the direct holdings in foreign companies and securities issued by foreign government agencies, Schwab has indirect exposure to foreign countries through its investments in CSIM money market funds (collectively, the Funds) resulting from brokerage clearing activities. At June 30, 2018, Schwab had $42 million in investments in these Funds. Certain of the Funds’ positions include certificates of deposit, time deposits, commercial paper, and corporate debt securities issued by counterparties in foreign countries. Additionally, at June 30, 2018, Schwab had outstanding margin loans to foreign residents of $532 million.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Schwab enters into various off-balance sheet arrangements in the ordinary course of business, primarily to meet the needs of its clients. These arrangements include firm commitments to extend credit. Additionally, Schwab enters into guarantees and other similar arrangements in the ordinary course of business. For information on each of these arrangements, see Item 1 – Note 5, Note 6, Note 8, Note 9, and Note 10, and Item 8 – Note 13 in the 2017 Form 10-K.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

Certain of our accounting policies that involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity are discussed in Part II – Item 7 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Critical Accounting Estimates in the 2017 Form 10-K.

1. Introduction and Basis of Presentation

The Charles Schwab Corporation (CSC) is a savings and loan holding company engaged, through its subsidiaries, in wealth management, securities brokerage, banking, asset management, custody, and financial advisory services.

Significant business subsidiaries of CSC include the following:


•	Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (CS&Co), a securities broker-dealer;


•	Charles Schwab Bank (CSB), a federal savings bank; and


•	Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (CSIM), the investment advisor for Schwab’s proprietary mutual funds (Schwab Funds^®) and Schwab’s exchange-traded funds (Schwab ETFs™).

Unless otherwise indicated, the terms “Schwab,” “the Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our” mean CSC together with its consolidated subsidiaries.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (GAAP), which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the accompanying financial statements, and in the related disclosures. These estimates are based on information available as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements. While management makes its best judgment, actual amounts or results could differ from these estimates. In the opinion of management, all normal, recurring adjustments have been included for a fair statement of this interim financial information.

These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, included in Schwab’s 2017 Form 10-K.

The significant accounting policies are included in Note 2 in the 2017 Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes to these accounting policies during the first six months of 2018, except as described in Note 2 below.

Principles of Consolidation

Schwab evaluates all entities in which it has financial interests for consolidation, except for money market funds, which are specifically excluded from consolidation guidance. When an entity is evaluated for consolidation, Schwab determines whether its interest in the entity constitutes a controlling financial interest under either the variable interest entity (VIE) model or a voting interest entity (VOE) model. In evaluating whether Schwab’s interest in a VIE is a controlling financial interest, we consider whether our involvement, in the context of the design, purpose, and risks of the VIE, as well as any involvement of related parties, provides us with (i) the power to direct the most significant activities of the VIE, and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits that are significant to the VIE. If both of these conditions exist, then Schwab would be the primary beneficiary of that VIE, and consolidate it. Based upon the assessments for all of our interests in VIEs, there are no cases where Schwab is the primary beneficiary; therefore, we are not required to consolidate any VIEs. Schwab consolidates all VOEs in which it has majority-voting interests.

Investments in entities in which Schwab does not have a controlling financial interest are accounted for under the equity method of accounting when we have the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financing decisions of the entity. Investments in entities for which Schwab does not have the ability to exercise significant influence are generally carried at cost and adjusted for impairment and observable price changes of the identical or similar investments of the same issuer (adjusted cost method), except for certain investments in qualified affordable housing projects which are accounted for under the proportional amortization method. All equity method, adjusted cost method, and proportional amortization method investments are included in other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

2. New Accounting Standards

Adoption of New Accounting Standards



Standard	Description	Date of Adoption	Effects on the Financial Statements or Other Significant Matters
Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” and related ASUs	Clarifies that revenue from contracts with clients should be recognized in a manner that depicts the timing of the related transfer of goods or performance of services at an amount that reflects the expected consideration. Adoption allows either full or modified retrospective transition. Full retrospective transition required a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the earliest comparative period presented. Modified retrospective transition required a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the reporting period in which the entity first applies the new guidance.	January 1, 2018	The guidance does not apply to revenue earned from the Company’s loans and securities. Accordingly, net interest revenue was not impacted. The primary impact for the Company was the capitalization on the consolidated balance sheets of sales commissions paid to employees for obtaining new contracts with clients. These capitalized costs resulted in an asset of $219 million and a related deferred tax liability of $52 million upon adoption. The asset is being amortized to expense over time as the related revenues are recognized. The Company adopted the revenue recognition guidance using the modified retrospective method for all contracts that were not completed as of January 1, 2018. Further details of the impact of adoption are included below in this Note as well as in Note 3.
ASU 2016-01, “Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10)” and ASU 2018-03, “Technical Corrections and Improvements to Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10)”	Requires: (i) equity investments to be measured at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in net income, unless the equity method is applied or the equity investments do not have readily determinable fair values in which case a practical alternative may be elected; (ii) use of an exit price when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosures; (iii) separate presentation of financial assets and liabilities by measurement category and form of instrument on the balance sheet or in the accompanying notes. Adoption requires a cumulative effect adjustment to the balance sheet as of the beginning of the year of initial application, except for certain changes that require prospective adoption.	January 1, 2018	The Company adopted this guidance on a prospective basis for its equity securities that do not have readily determinable fair values. No other significant changes resulted from adoption. Therefore, there was no material impact on the Company’s financial statements. The Company elected to use the alternative to fair value measurement for its equity securities that do not have readily determinable fair values. These equity securities will be adjusted for impairment and observable price changes of the identical or similar investments of the same issuer, as applicable. Schwab refers to this approach as the adjusted cost method. This method was applied to an immaterial amount of Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) investments included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets.

Standard	Description	Date of Adoption	Effects on the Financial Statements or Other Significant Matters
ASU 2016-18, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) – Restricted Cash a Consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force”	Requires that the statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total cash and cash equivalents, including restricted cash and cash equivalents. Adoption requires retrospective presentation of the statement of cash flows to include restricted cash and cash equivalents in the beginning and ending amounts.	January 1, 2018	The Company adopted this guidance on a retrospective basis. The Company has significant amounts of restricted cash and cash equivalents due to its business as a broker-dealer. As a result of the adoption, changes in restricted cash and cash equivalents included within cash and investments segregated and on deposit for regulatory purposes in the consolidated balance sheets are now presented with changes in cash and cash equivalents throughout the consolidated statements of cash flows. The amount of restricted cash and cash equivalents is included in a separate table in the consolidated statements of cash flows.
ASU 2018-02, “Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income”	Permits reclassification of the impacts on certain tax affected items included in AOCI that were adjusted through income from continuing operations rather than AOCI upon the effective date of the Tax Act. Adoption provides for retrospective adoption to all periods presented and impacted by the Tax Act or as of the beginning of the period of adoption.	January 1, 2018	The Company early adopted this guidance as of the beginning of the quarter. The Company elected to reclassify the income tax effects of the Tax Act from items in AOCI into retained earnings. Adoption resulted in a reduction in AOCI and a corresponding increase in retained earnings of $33 million.

New Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted



Standard	Description	Required Date of Adoption	Effects on the Financial Statements or Other Significant Matters
ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)”	Amends the accounting for leases by lessees and lessors. The primary change from the new guidance is the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases. Additional changes include accounting for lease origination and executory costs, required lessee reassessments during the lease term due to changes in circumstances, and expanded lease disclosures. Adoption requires modified retrospective transition as of the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements in which the entity first applies the new standard. Certain transition relief is permitted if elected by the entity.	January 1, 2019	The Company does not expect this guidance will have a material impact on its earnings per common share (EPS), but it will result in a gross up of the consolidated balance sheets due to recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities based on the present value of remaining operating lease payments (see Note 13 in the 2017 10-K for the undiscounted rental commitments for operating leases). The Company is evaluating its adoption method due to a recently proposed ASU that provides an alternative adoption method. The Company is refining its methodology to estimate the right of use assets and lease liabilities and working on system updates to apply the lease accounting changes. The full population of contracts that may be subject to balance sheet recognition is still being evaluated, and is nearly complete. The Company has further work to perform related to disclosures.

Standard	Description	Required Date of Adoption	Effects on the Financial Statements or Other Significant Matters
ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”	Provides guidance for recognizing impairment of most debt instruments measured at amortized cost, including loans and held to maturity (HTM) debt securities. Requires estimating current expected credit losses (CECL) over the remaining life of an instrument or a portfolio of instruments with similar risk characteristics based on relevant information about past events, current conditions, and reasonable forecasts. The initial estimate of, and the subsequent changes in, CECL will be recognized as credit loss expense through current earnings and will be reflected as an allowance for credit losses offsetting the carrying value of the financial instrument(s) on the balance sheet. Amends the OTTI model for available for sale (AFS) debt securities by requiring the use of an allowance, rather than directly reducing the carrying value of the security, and eliminating consideration of the length of time such security has been in an unrealized loss position as a factor in concluding whether a credit loss exists. Adoption requires a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the entity applies the new guidance except that a prospective transition is required for AFS debt securities for which an OTTI has been recognized prior to the effective date.	January 1, 2020 (early adoption permitted)	The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its financial statements, including EPS. Initial implementation work performed to date has focused on evaluating the Company’s impacted assets, including loans and investment securities. The Company has also been evaluating its current data and system capabilities and considering additional data sources and system enhancements. Additional work to be completed includes an in-depth analysis for each impacted asset type, selection of methods, and changes to policies and procedures.
ASU 2017-08, “Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities”	Shortens the amortization period for the premium on certain callable debt securities to the earliest call date. The amendments are applicable to any purchased individual debt security with an explicit and noncontingent call feature with a fixed price on a preset date. ASU 2017-08 does not impact the accounting for callable debt securities held at a discount. Adoption requires modified retrospective transition as of the beginning of the period of adoption through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings.	January 1, 2019 (early adoption permitted)	While still under evaluation, the Company does not expect this guidance will have a material impact on its financial statements, including EPS.

For a summary of revenue provided by our reportable segments, see Note 17. The recognition of revenue is not impacted by the operating segment in which revenue is generated.

Net interest revenue

Net interest revenue, which is generated from financial instruments covered by various other areas of GAAP, is not within the scope of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606, Revenue From Contracts With Customers (ASC 606), and is included in the table above in order to reconcile to total net revenues per the condensed consolidated statement of income. Net interest revenue is the difference between interest generated on interest earning assets and interest paid on funding sources. Our primary interest earning assets include cash and cash equivalents; segregated cash and investments; margin loans, which constitute the majority of receivables from brokerage clients; investment securities; and bank loans. Revenue on interest earning assets is affected by various factors, such as the composition of assets, prevailing interest rates at the time of origination or purchase, changes in interest rates on floating rate securities, and changes in prepayment levels for mortgage related securities and loans. Fees earned on securities borrowing and lending activities, which are conducted by CS&Co on assets held in client brokerage accounts, are included in other interest revenue and expense.

Asset management and administration fees

The majority of asset management and administration fees are generated through our proprietary and third-party mutual fund and ETF offerings, as well as fee-based advisory solutions. Mutual fund and ETF service fees are charged for investment management, shareholder, and administration services provided to Schwab Funds^® and Schwab ETFs™, as well as recordkeeping, shareholder, and administration services provided to third-party funds. Advice solutions fees are charged for brokerage and asset management services provided to advice solutions clients. Both mutual fund and ETF service fees and advice solutions fees are earned and recognized over time. Fees are generally based on a percentage of the daily value of assets under management and are collected on a monthly or quarterly basis.

Trading revenue

Substantially all trading revenue is generated through commissions earned for executing trades for clients in individual equities, options, fixed income securities, and certain third-party mutual funds and ETFs. This revenue is earned and collected when the trades are executed.

Other revenue

Other revenue includes order flow revenue, other service fees, software fees from our portfolio management solutions, exchange processing fees, and nonrecurring gains. Generally, the most significant portion of other revenue is order flow revenue, which are payments received from execution venues to which CS&Co sends equity and option orders. Order flow revenue is recognized at the point-in-time that the trades are executed.

Capitalized contract costs

Deferred contract costs relate to sales commissions paid to employees for obtaining contracts with clients and are included in other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. These costs are amortized to expense on a straight-line basis over a period that is consistent with how the related revenue is recognized. At June 30, 2018 and January 1, 2018, we had $239 million and $219 million of deferred contract costs, respectively. Amortization expense related to deferred contract costs was $11 million and $22 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2018, respectively, which was recorded in compensation and benefits expense on the condensed consolidated statements of income.

Contract balances

Receivables from contracts with customers within the scope of ASC 606 were $353 million at January 1, 2018 and $352 million at June 30, 2018 and were recorded in other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Schwab does not have any other significant contract assets or contract liability balances as of June 30, 2018 and January 1, 2018.

Unsatisfied performance obligations

We do not have any unsatisfied performance obligations other than those that are subject to an elective practical expedient under ASC 606. The practical expedient applies to and is elected for contracts where we recognize revenue at the amount to which we have the right to invoice for services performed.

At June 30, 2018, substantially all securities in the investment portfolios were rated investment grade. U.S. agency mortgage-backed securities do not have explicit credit ratings; however, management considers these to be of the highest credit quality and rating given the guarantee of principal and interest by the U.S. government or U.S. government-sponsored enterprises.

Management evaluates whether investment securities are other-than-temporarily impaired (OTTI) on a quarterly basis as described in Note 2 in the 2017 Form 10-K. No amounts were recognized as OTTI in earnings or other comprehensive income in 2018 or 2017. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, Schwab did not hold any securities on which OTTI was previously recognized.

⁽³⁾There were no loans accruing interest that were contractually 90 days or more past due at June 30, 2018 or December 31, 2017.

At June 30, 2018, CSB had pledged $11.1 billion of First Mortgages and HELOCs as collateral to secure borrowing capacity on a secured credit facility with the FHLB (see Note 8).

Substantially all of the bank loans were collectively evaluated for impairment at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.

Credit Quality

In addition to monitoring delinquency, Schwab monitors the credit quality of First Mortgages and HELOCs by stratifying the portfolios by the following:


•	Year of origination;


•	Borrower FICO scores at origination (Origination FICO);


•	Updated borrower FICO scores (Updated FICO);


•	Loan-to-value (LTV) ratios at origination (Origination LTV); and


•	Estimated current LTV ratios (Estimated Current LTV).

Borrowers’ FICO scores are provided by an independent third-party credit reporting service and were last updated in June 2018. The Origination LTV and Estimated Current LTV for a HELOC include any first lien mortgage outstanding on the same property at the time of the HELOC’s origination. The Estimated Current LTV for each loan is estimated by reference to a home price appreciation index.

At June 30, 2018, First Mortgage loans of $9.2 billion had adjustable interest rates. These mortgages have initial fixed interest rates for three to ten years and interest rates that adjust annually thereafter. Approximately 32% of the balance of these mortgages consisted of loans with interest-only payment terms. The interest rates on approximately 63% of the balance of these interest-only loans are not scheduled to reset for three or more years. Schwab’s mortgage loans do not include interest terms described as temporary introductory rates below current market rates.

The HELOC product has a 30-year loan term with an initial draw period of ten years from the date of origination. After the initial draw period, the balance outstanding at such time is converted to a 20-year amortizing loan. The interest rate during the initial draw period, and the 20-year amortizing period, is a floating rate based on the prime rate plus a margin. HELOCs that convert to an amortizing loan may experience higher delinquencies, and higher loss rates, than those in the initial draw period. The allowance for loan loss methodology takes this increased inherent risk into consideration.

The following table presents when current outstanding HELOCs will convert to amortizing loans:



June 30, 2018	Balance
Converted to an amortizing loan by period end	$	537
Within 1 year	342
> 1 year – 3 years	152
> 3 years – 5 years	155
> 5 years	512
Total	$	1,698

At June 30, 2018, $1.4 billion of the HELOC portfolio was secured by second liens on the associated properties. Second lien mortgage loans typically possess a higher degree of credit risk given the subordination to the first lien holder in the event of default. In addition to the credit monitoring activities described previously, Schwab also monitors credit risk by reviewing the delinquency status of the first lien loan on the associated property. At June 30, 2018, the borrowers on approximately 49% of HELOC loan balances outstanding only paid the minimum amount due.

6. Variable Interest Entities

As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, all of Schwab’s involvement with variable interest entities (VIEs) is through CSB’s Community Reinvestment Act-related investments and most of those related to Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) investments. As part of CSB’s community reinvestment initiatives, CSB invests with other institutional investors in funds that make equity investments in multifamily affordable housing properties. CSB receives tax credits and other tax benefits for these investments. CSB’s LIHTC investments are accounted for using the proportional amortization method, which amortizes the cost of the investment over the period in which the investor expects to receive tax credits and other tax benefits, and the resulting amortization is included in taxes on income on the consolidated statements of income.

Aggregate assets, liabilities, and maximum exposure to loss

The aggregate assets, liabilities, and maximum exposure to loss from those VIEs in which Schwab holds a variable interest, but as to which we have concluded it is not the primary beneficiary, are summarized in the table below:



	June 30, 2018						December 31, 2017
	Aggregate assets		Aggregate liabilities		Maximum exposure to loss		Aggregate assets		Aggregate liabilities		Maximum exposure to loss
LIHTC investments ⁽¹⁾	$	339	$	208	$	339	$	304	$	203	$	304
Other CRA investments⁽²⁾	68		—		119		69		—		125
Total	$	407	$	208	$	458	$	373	$	203	$	429

⁽¹⁾Aggregate assets and aggregate liabilities are included in other assets and accrued expenses and other liabilities, respectively, on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

⁽²⁾ Other CRA investments are recorded using either the adjusted cost method, equity method, or as HTM securities. Aggregate assets are included in other assets, HTM securities, or bank loans – net on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Schwab’s maximum exposure to loss would result from the loss of the investments, including any committed amounts. During the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, Schwab did not provide or intend to provide financial or other support to the VIEs that it was not contractually required to provide. CSB’s funding of these remaining commitments is dependent upon the occurrence of certain conditions, and CSB expects to pay substantially all of these commitments between 2018 and 2021.

Short-term borrowings: CSB maintains a secured credit facility with the FHLB. Amounts available under this facility are dependent on the value of CSB’s First Mortgages, HELOCs, and the fair value of certain of CSB’s investment securities that are pledged as collateral. As of June 30, 2018, the collateral pledged by CSB provided a total borrowing capacity of $30.3 billion of which no amounts were outstanding. As of December 31, 2017, the collateral pledged by CSB provided a total borrowing capacity of $32.3 billion, of which $15.0 billion, was outstanding.

As a condition of the FHLB borrowings, CSB is required to hold FHLB stock, which was recorded in other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The investment in FHLB was $17 million at June 30, 2018 and $405 million at December 31, 2017.

9. Commitments and Contingencies

Loan Portfolio: CSB provides a co-branded loan origination program for CSB clients (the Program) with Quicken Loans, Inc. (Quicken Loans^®). Pursuant to the Program, Quicken Loans originates and services First Mortgages and HELOCs for CSB clients. Under the Program, CSB purchases certain First Mortgages and HELOCs that are originated by Quicken Loans. CSB purchased First Mortgages of $594 million and $683 million during the second quarters of 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $1.1 billion and $1.3 billion during the first six months of 2018 and 2017, respectively. Schwab purchased HELOCs with commitments of $100 million and $111 million during the second quarters of 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $207 million and $229 million during the first six months of 2018 and 2017, respectively.

The Company’s commitments to extend credit on bank lines of credit and to purchase First Mortgages are as follows:



	June 30, 2018		December 31, 2017
Commitments to extend credit related to unused HELOCs, PALs, and other lines of credit	$	10,726	$	10,060
Commitments to purchase First Mortgage loans	309		308
Total	$	11,035	$	10,368

Guarantees and indemnifications: Schwab has clients that sell (i.e., write) listed option contracts that are cleared by the Options Clearing Corporation – a clearing house that establishes margin requirements on these transactions. We partially satisfy the margin requirements by arranging unsecured standby letter of credit agreements (LOCs), in favor of the Options Clearing Corporation, which are issued by several banks. At June 30, 2018, the aggregate face amount of these LOCs totaled $225 million. There were no funds drawn under any of these LOCs at June 30, 2018. In connection with its securities lending activities, Schwab is required to provide collateral to certain brokerage clients. The Company satisfies the collateral requirements by providing cash as collateral.

Schwab also provides guarantees to securities clearing houses and exchanges under standard membership agreements, which require members to guarantee the performance of other members. Under the agreements, if another member becomes unable to satisfy its obligations to the clearing houses and exchanges, other members would be required to meet shortfalls. Schwab’s

(Unaudited)

liability under these arrangements is not quantifiable and may exceed the cash and securities it has posted as collateral. The potential requirement for the Company to make payments under these arrangements is remote. Accordingly, no liability has been recognized for these guarantees.

Legal contingencies: Schwab is subject to claims and lawsuits in the ordinary course of business, including arbitrations, class actions and other litigation, some of which include claims for substantial or unspecified damages. The Company is also the subject of inquiries, investigations, and proceedings by regulatory and other governmental agencies.

Predicting the outcome of a litigation or regulatory matter is inherently difficult, requiring significant judgment and evaluation of various factors, including the procedural status of the matter and any recent developments; prior experience and the experience of others in similar cases; available defenses, including potential opportunities to dispose of a case on the merits or procedural grounds before trial (e.g., motions to dismiss or for summary judgment); the progress of fact discovery; the opinions of counsel and experts regarding potential damages; potential opportunities for settlement and the status of any settlement discussions; and potential insurance coverage and indemnification. It may not be reasonably possible to estimate a range of potential liability until the matter is closer to resolution – pending, for example, further proceedings, the outcome of key motions or appeals, or discussions among the parties. Numerous issues may have to be developed, such as discovery of important factual matters and determination of threshold legal issues, which may include novel or unsettled questions of law. Reserves are established or adjusted or further disclosure and estimates of potential loss are provided as the matter progresses and more information becomes available.

Schwab believes it has strong defenses in all significant matters currently pending and is contesting liability and any damages claimed. Nevertheless, some of these matters may result in adverse judgments or awards, including penalties, injunctions or other relief, and the Company may also determine to settle a matter because of the uncertainty and risks of litigation. Described below are certain matters in which there is a reasonable possibility that a material loss could be incurred or where the matter may otherwise be of significant interest to stockholders. Unless otherwise noted, the Company is unable to provide a reasonable estimate of any potential liability given the stage of proceedings in the matter. With respect to all other pending matters, based on current information and consultation with counsel, it does not appear reasonably possible that the outcome of any such matter would be material to the financial condition, operating results, or cash flows of the Company.

Total Bond Market Fund Litigation: On August 28, 2008, a class action lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California on behalf of investors in the Schwab Total Bond Market Fund^™. The lawsuit, which alleged violations of state law and federal securities law in connection with the fund’s investment policy, named CSIM, Schwab Investments (registrant and issuer of the fund’s shares), and certain current and former fund trustees as defendants. Allegations include that the fund improperly deviated from its stated investment objectives by investing in collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs) and investing more than 25% of fund assets in CMOs and mortgage-backed securities without obtaining a fundholder vote. Plaintiff seeks unspecified compensatory and rescission damages, unspecified equitable and injunctive relief, costs, and attorneys’ fees on behalf of a putative class of investors who held shares as of August 31, 2007, and a putative class of investors who purchased the shares between September 1, 2017 and February 27, 2009. Plaintiff’s federal securities law claim and certain of plaintiff’s state law claims were dismissed. On August 8, 2011, the court dismissed plaintiff’s remaining claims with prejudice. Plaintiff appealed to the Ninth Circuit, which issued a ruling on March 9, 2015 reversing the district court’s dismissal of the case and remanding the case for further proceedings. Plaintiff filed a fourth amended complaint on June 25, 2015, and in decisions issued October 6, 2015 and February 23, 2016, the court dismissed all claims with prejudice. Plaintiff has appealed to the Ninth Circuit, where the case remains pending.

Crago Order Routing Litigation: On July 13, 2016, a securities class action lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California on behalf of a putative class of customers executing equity orders through CS&Co. The lawsuit names CS&Co and CSC as defendants and alleges that an agreement under which CS&Co routed orders to UBS Securities LLC between July 13, 2011 and December 31, 2014 violated CS&Co’s duty to seek best execution. Plaintiffs seek unspecified damages, interest, injunctive and equitable relief, and attorneys’ fees and costs. After a first amended complaint was dismissed with leave to amend, plaintiffs filed a second amended complaint on August 14, 2017. Defendants again moved to dismiss, and in a decision issued December 5, 2017, the court denied the motion. Defendants have answered the complaint to deny all allegations, and intend to vigorously contest the lawsuit.

10. Financial Instruments Subject to Off-Balance Sheet Credit Risk

Resale agreements: Schwab enters into collateralized resale agreements principally with other broker-dealers, which could result in losses in the event the counterparty fails to purchase the securities held as collateral for the cash advanced and the fair value of the securities declines. To mitigate this risk, Schwab requires that the counterparty deliver securities to a custodian, to be held as collateral, with a fair value at or in excess of the resale price. Schwab also sets standards for the credit quality of the counterparty, monitors the fair value of the underlying securities as compared to the related receivable, including accrued interest, and requires additional collateral where deemed appropriate. The collateral provided under these resale agreements is utilized to meet obligations under broker-dealer client protection rules, which place limitations on our ability to access such segregated securities. For Schwab to repledge or sell this collateral, it would be required to deposit cash and/or securities of an equal amount into its segregated reserve bank accounts in order to meet its segregated cash and investment requirement. Schwab’s resale agreements are not subject to master netting arrangements.

Securities lending: Schwab loans brokerage client securities temporarily to other brokers and clearing houses in connection with its securities lending activities and receives cash as collateral for the securities loaned. Increases in security prices may cause the fair value of the securities loaned to exceed the amount of cash received as collateral. In the event the counterparty to these transactions does not return the loaned securities or provide additional cash collateral, we may be exposed to the risk of acquiring the securities at prevailing market prices in order to satisfy our client obligations. Schwab mitigates this risk by requiring credit approvals for counterparties, monitoring the fair value of securities loaned, and requiring additional cash as collateral when necessary. We also borrow securities from other broker-dealers to fulfill short sales by brokerage clients and deliver cash to the lender in exchange for the securities. The fair value of these borrowed securities was $472 million and $215 million at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. All of our securities lending transactions are through a program with a clearing organization, which guarantees the return of cash to us and is subject to enforceable master netting arrangements with other broker-dealers; however, we do not net securities lending transactions. Therefore, the securities loaned and securities borrowed are presented gross in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

11. Fair Values of Assets and Liabilities

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis

Schwab’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis include certain cash equivalents, certain investments segregated and on deposit for regulatory purposes, other securities owned, and AFS securities. The Company uses the market approach to determine the fair value of assets and liabilities. When available, the Company uses quoted prices in active markets to measure the fair value of assets and liabilities. When utilizing market data and bid-ask spread, the Company uses the price within the bid-ask spread that best represents fair value. When quoted prices do not exist, the Company uses prices obtained from independent third-party pricing services to measure the fair value of investment assets. We generally obtain prices from at least three independent pricing sources for assets recorded at fair value.

Our primary independent pricing service provides prices based on observable trades and discounted cash flows that incorporate observable information such as yields for similar types of securities (a benchmark interest rate plus observable spreads) and weighted-average maturity for the same or similar “to-be-issued” securities. We compare the prices obtained from the primary independent pricing service to the prices obtained from the additional independent pricing sources to determine if the price obtained from the primary independent pricing service is reasonable. Schwab does not adjust the prices received from independent third-party pricing services unless such prices are inconsistent with the definition of fair value and result in a material difference in the recorded amounts.

For a description of the fair value hierarchy and Schwab’s fair value methodologies, including the use of independent third-party pricing services, see Note 2 in the 2017 Form 10-K. We did not transfer any assets or liabilities between Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 during the six months ended June 30, 2018, or the year ended December 31, 2017. In addition, the Company did not adjust prices received from the primary independent third-party pricing service at June 30, 2018 or December 31, 2017.

14. Taxes on Income

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Act was signed into law. Among other things, the Tax Act lowered the federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%, effective for tax years including or commencing January 1, 2018. Schwab’s effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 was 23.4% and 22.7%, respectively, compared to 36.7% and 35.0% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, resulting from the impact of the Tax Act of 2017.

Also as a result of the Tax Act, Schwab recognized a $46 million one-time non-cash charge to taxes on income in the fourth quarter of 2017 associated with the remeasurement of net deferred tax assets and other tax adjustments related to the Tax Act. While we were able to make a reasonable estimate of the impact of the reduction in the corporate tax rate in the fourth quarter of 2017, our accounting for various elements of the Tax Act may be affected by clarifications of the Tax Act and other related analysis.

During the second quarter of 2018, Schwab concluded its analysis of the effect of bonus depreciation that allows for immediate expensing of qualified property related to the Tax Act. The impact of the true-up adjustment from this analysis was determined to be immaterial. We are continuing to gather additional information to complete the accounting for the remaining estimated items, including the state tax effect of adjustments made to federal temporary differences, and expect to complete the accounting within the prescribed measurement period. As such, the impact of the Tax Act is an estimate pending further information and the analysis noted.

As of January 1, 2018, Schwab adopted new accounting guidance that decreased AOCI and increased retained earnings by $33 million for the reclassification of certain impacts of the Tax Act as described in Note 2.

N/A Not applicable.

At June 30, 2018, CSB is considered well capitalized (the highest category) under its regulatory capital rules. At June 30, 2018, both CSC’s and CSB’s capital levels exceeded the fully implemented capital conservation buffer requirement. Certain events, such as growth in bank deposits and regulatory discretion, could adversely affect our ability to meet future capital requirements.

In late 2017, Schwab acquired a federal savings bank charter and changed the name to Charles Schwab Signature Bank (CSSB). At June 30, 2018, CSSB’s balance sheet consisted primarily of investment securities with total assets of $9.6 billion. CSSB is subject to similar regulatory guidelines and requirements, and seeks to maintain a Tier 1 Leverage Ratio similar to CSB.

Net capital and net capital requirements for CS&Co are as follows:



	June 30, 2018		December 31, 2017
Net Capital	$	2,323	$	2,118
Minimum net capital required	0.250		0.250
2% of aggregate debit balances	475		435
Net Capital in excess of required net capital	$	1,848	$	1,683

In accordance with the SEC Customer Protection Rule, CS&Co had portions of its cash and investments segregated for the exclusive benefit of clients at June 30, 2018. The SEC Customer Protection Rule requires broker-dealers to segregate client fully paid securities and cash balances not collateralizing margin positions and not swept to money market funds or bank

deposit accounts. Amounts included in cash and investments segregated and on deposit for regulatory purposes represent actual balances on deposit. Cash and cash equivalents included in cash and investments segregated and on deposit for regulatory purposes are presented as part of Schwab’s cash balances in the consolidated statements of cash flows.

17. Segment Information

Schwab’s two reportable segments are Investor Services and Advisor Services. Schwab structures the operating segments according to its clients and the services provided to those clients. The Investor Services segment provides retail brokerage and banking services to individual investors and retirement plan services, as well as other corporate brokerage services, to businesses and their employees. The Advisor Services segment provides custodial, trading, banking, and support services, as well as retirement business services to independent RIAs, independent retirement advisors, and recordkeepers. Revenues and expenses are allocated to the two segments based on which segment services the client.

Management evaluates the performance of the segments on a pre-tax basis. Segment assets and liabilities are not used for evaluating segment performance or in deciding how to allocate resources to segments. There are no revenues from transactions between the segments.

Financial information for the segments is presented in the following tables:
