Net income for the first quarter of 2018 grew 39% from the same period in 2017 driven primarily by sustained business momentum, higher interest rates, and lower corporate income taxes. Total revenues rose 15% due to increases in all major sources of revenue as a result of strong organic growth, client engagement, and demandthe economic environment. Total expenses grew 13%, reflecting higher spending to support the expanding investor base and higher client assets, as well as a $15 million charge associated with unsecured client margin losses in volatility-related products during early February. Altogether, we achieved a 240 basis point gap between revenue and expense growth, which resulted in a 41.8% pre-tax profit margin; combined with a lower tax rate of 21.9%, we delivered net income of $783 million for its contemporary approach to wealth management during the secondfirst quarter of 2017. Equity markets rose and volatility remained largely contained. While short-term interest rates increased, reflecting the Federal Reserve’s March and June 2017 interest rate hikes, the longer end of the yield curve softened. Against this backdrop, clients opened more than 350,000 new brokerage accounts during the second quarter, bringing year-to-date new accounts to 719,000 –2018, up 34% from a year ago. Heightened client engagement resulted in core net new asset growth of $46.2 billion in the second quarter of 2017, up 74% year-over-year, bringing total client assets to $3.04 trillion at June 30, 2017. Assets enrolled in some form of ongoing advisory service totaled $1.54 trillion at quarter-end, up 17%$219 million from a year ago.

The Company’s financial model, with multiple revenue streams, operating leverage, and balance sheet strength resulted in a 27% increase in net income to $575 million inDuring the secondfirst quarter of 2017,2018, clients opened 443,000 new brokerage accounts, helping to bring active brokerage accounts to 11.0 million at March 31, 2018. Excluding planned mutual funding clearing outflows of $84.4 billion, core net new assets gathered during the first quarter of 2018 were $65.6 billion, compared to $38.9 billion for the same period a year ago. Client engagement remained strong during the first quarter of 2018, with daily average revenue trades rising 46% from the same period in 2016. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $1.12017.

We also transferred approximately $25 billion – an increase of 32%from sweep money market funds to bank sweep deposits and paid off $15 billion in borrowings from the prior year.Federal Home Loan Bank. The pre-tax profit margins fornet effect of these moves and client activity lifted our consolidated balance sheet assets to $248 billion at March 31, 2018. Our financial results, combined with the secondbenefits of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (Tax Act), lifted our first quarter and first half of 2017 were over 40%, leading to a return on average common stockholders’ equity ofto 18% compared to 15% for the second quarter and first half of 2017 compared to 13% for the same periodsperiod in 2016.

(1) Interest revenue or expense was less than $500,000 in the period or periods presented.
(2) Amounts have been calculated based on amortized cost.
Net interest revenue increased $263 million, or 26%, in the first quarter of 2018 compared to the same period in 2017 primarily due to higher interest rates and growth in interest-earning assets. 
Our net interest margin improved to 2.12% during the first quarter of 2018, up from 1.87% a year earlier as a result of the Federal Reserve’s 2017 and March 2018 interest rate hikes, partially offset by higher interest rates paid on bank deposits and short-term borrowings.
In the first quarter of 2018, average interest earning assets grew 10% compared to the same period in 2017. This increase was driven by higher bank deposits from net client flows and bulk transfers, as well as higher short-term borrowings.

DuringDART volumes increased 46% in the first quarter of 2017,2018 compared to the Companyprior year. This led to an increase in trading revenue of 5%, as the volume growth more than offset Schwab’s commission pricing reductions implemented in the first quarter of 2017. At 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. Trading revenue decreased by $44 million, or 22%, and $84 million, or 19%, in the second quarter and first half of 2017, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2016, primarily due to these pricing reductions. These reductions in commission rates reflect both the Company’s belief that trade pricing should never be an obstacle for choosing Schwab and the Company’s commitment to share the benefits of its scale with clients. With these changes, trading revenue represented 8% of total net revenues through the first half of 2017 compared to 12% for the same period in 2016.

Other Revenue

Other revenue increased by $5 million, or 7%, in the second quarter of 2017 compared to the second quarter of 2016 largely due to an increase in realized gains on available for sale securities. Otherincludes order flow revenue, increased $8 million, or 6%, in the first half of 2017 compared to the same period in 2016, primarily due to the sublease of office space in San Francisco, a gain on the sale of a building in Indianapolis,other service fees, software fees from our portfolio management solutions, exchange processing fees, and an increase in realized gains on available for sale securities.

non-recurring gains. Order flow revenue was $26$38 million and $25 million during the second quarters of 2017 and 2016 and $53 million and $52$27 million during the first halvesquarters of 20172018 and 2016,2017, respectively.

Taxes on Income

Effective January 1, 2017, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-09, which prospectively changes the accounting treatment of a portion of the tax deductions relating to equity compensation. These deductions were previously reflected directly in additional paid-in capital, a component of stockholders’ equity, and are now included in tax expense, a component of net income. As a result of this change, the Company’s tax expense was reduced by approximately $5 million and

$36 million in the second quarter and first half of 2017. Future effects will depend on the Company’s share price, restricted stock vesting, and the volume of equity incentive options exercised.

The Company’s effective income tax rate on income before taxes was 36.7% and 37.2% for the second quarters of 2017 and 2016, respectively, and 35.0% and 37.2% for the first halves of 2017 and 2016, respectively, which reflects the benefit in the first half of 2017 as discussed above.

Investor Services

Net revenues rose by 16% in the second quarter and first half of 2017 compared to the same periods in 2016 primarily due to increases in net interest revenue and asset management and administration fees, partially offset by a decrease in trading revenue. Net interest revenue increased primarily due to higher net interest margins and higher balances of interest-earningaverage assets. Asset management and administration fees increased primarily due to higher net yields on money market fund assets and growth in client assets invested in equity and bond funds, ETFs and advisory solutions. Trading revenue decreased primarily due to the reductions in commissions rates announced earlier in the year.

Expenses excluding interest increased by 10% in the second quarter and first half of 2017 compared to the same periods in 2016 primarily due to higher compensation and benefits and other expenses. Incentive compensation increased as a result of growth in net client asset flows, while salaries and benefits grew, reflecting higher staffing levels to support growth in the business. Other expenses rose due to higher FDIC regulatory assessments and occupancy and equipment costs.

Net revenues rose by 19% and 20%,Other expenses increased in the secondfirst quarter and first half of 20172018 compared to the same periodsperiod in 20162017, primarily due to a $15 million charge associated with unsecured client margin losses in volatility-related products and other miscellaneous expense growth related to the growing client asset base.

Capital expenditures were $135 million and $67 million in the first quarters of 2018 and 2017, respectively. The increase in capital expenditures from the prior year was due 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 $219 million and $279 million for the first quarters of 2018 and 2017, respectively, resulting in effective income tax rates on income before taxes of 21.9% and 33.1%, 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.

RISK MANAGEMENT

The Company’sSchwab’s business activities expose itus 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 the Company’sour risk management programs, see Item 7 – Risk Management in the 20162017 Form 10-K.

Credit Risk
Credit risk is the potential for loss due to a borrower, counterparty, or issuer failing to perform on its contractual obligations. The Company’s exposure to credit risk mainly results from margin lending and client option and futures activities, securities lending, mortgage lending, pledged asset lending, its role as a counterparty in financial contracts, and other investing activities. Client investing activities often include the use of leverage through margin, options, and futures positions. The Company manages collateral concentrations at the account level and across client portfolios.
The credit risk exposure related to the Company’s bank loans is actively managed through individual loan and portfolio reviews. Management regularly reviews asset quality, including concentrations, delinquencies, nonaccrual loans, charge-offs, and recoveries. All are factors in the determination of an appropriate allowance for loan losses. For more information on the Company’s credit quality indicators relating to its bank loans, see Item 1 – Note 4.
The Company also has exposure to concentration risk when holding large positions in financial instruments collateralized by assets with similar economic characteristics or in securities of a single issuer or within a particular industry or geographical area. The fair value of the Company’s investments in corporate debt securities and commercial paper totaled $10.1 billion at June 30, 2017, with 46% issued by institutions in the financial services industry. For more information on the Company’s investment portfolios, see Item 1 – Note 3.
Market Risk
Market risk is the potential for changes in earnings or the value of financial instruments held by the Company as a result of fluctuations in interest rates, equity prices, or market conditions.

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk primarily from changes in market interest rates on its interest-earning assets relative to changes in the costs of its funding sources that finance these assets. The majority of the Company’s interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities are sensitive to changes in short-term interest rates. A portion of the Company’s investment portfolio is sensitive to changes in long-term interest rates.

Net Interest Revenue Simulation



THE CHARLES SCHWAB CORPORATION
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
(Tabular Amounts in Millions, Except Ratios, or as Noted)


For the Company’sSchwab’s net interest revenue sensitivity analysis, the Company useswe 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 Company uses constant balances and prevailing market rates in the simulation assumptions in order to minimize the number of variables and to better isolate risks. The simulations involve assumptions that are inherently uncertain and, as a result, cannot precisely estimate net interest revenue or predict 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 the Company’sour guidelines for its net interest revenue sensitivity are breached, management must report the breach to the Company’s Corporate Asset-Liability Management and PricingFinancial Risk Oversight Committee and establish a plan to address the interest rate risk. There were no breaches of the Company’sSchwab’s net interest revenue sensitivity risk limits during the second quarter of 2017three months ended March 31, 2018, or year ended December 31, 2016.2017.

As represented by the simulations presented below, the Company’sour 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 sheetsheets would not be changed as a result of the simulated changes in interest rates. As the Companywe actively manages itsmanage the consolidated balance sheetsheets and interest rate exposure, in all likelihood the Companywe would take steps to manage additional interest rate exposure that could result from changes in the interest rate environment. The following table displaysshows the simulated net interest revenue change over the next 12 months beginning June 30, 2017March 31, 2018 and December 31, 20162017 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, 2017 December 31, 2016 March 31, 2018 December 31, 2017
Increase of 100 basis points 5.3 % 6.5 % 3.5 % 3.3 %
Decrease of 100 basis points (8.1)% (9.8)% (5.2)% (6.2)%
The change in net interest revenue sensitivities as of June 30, 2017March 31, 2018 reflects the increase in short-term interest rates. The increase of short-term interest rates positively impacts net interest revenue as yields on interest-earning assets rise faster than the cost of funding sources. A decline in interest rates could negatively impact the yield on the Company’s investment and loan portfolio to a greater degree than any offsetting reduction in interest expense from funding sources, compressing net interest margin.across all maturities.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the potential that the Company will be unable to sell assets or meet cash flow obligations when they come due without incurring unacceptable losses. The Company’s primary source of funds is cash generated by client activity: bank deposits and cash balances in client brokerage accounts. Other sources of funds may include cash flows from operations, maturities and sales of investment securities, repayments on loans, lending securities held in client brokerage accounts, and cash provided by external financing.
To meet daily funding needs, the Company maintains liquidity in the form of overnight cash deposits and short-term investments. For unanticipated liquidity needs, the Company maintains a buffer of highly liquid investments, currently comprised of U.S. Treasury notes.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

Certain of the Company’sour 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 20162017 Form 10-K. With the exception of adding Income Taxes, thereThere have been no other changes to critical accounting estimates during the first sixthree months of 2017.
Income Taxes
The Company estimates income tax expense based on amounts expected to be owed to the various tax jurisdictions in which it operates, including federal, state and local domestic jurisdictions, and insignificant amounts owed to several foreign jurisdictions. The estimated income tax expense is reported in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Accrued taxes are reported in other assets or other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and represent the net estimated amount due to or

2018.

to be received from taxing jurisdictions either currently or deferred to future periods. Deferred taxes arise from differences between assets and liabilities measured for financial reporting purposes versus income tax reporting purposes. Deferred tax assets are recognized if, in management’s judgment, their realizability is determined to be more likely than not. Uncertain tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold are measured to determine the amount of benefit to recognize. An uncertain tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit management believes is more likely than not to be realized upon settlement. In estimating accrued taxes, the Company assesses the relative merits and risks of the appropriate tax treatment considering statutory, judicial and regulatory guidance in the context of the tax position. Because of the complexity of tax laws and regulations, interpretation can be difficult and subject to legal judgment given specific facts and circumstances.  

Changes in the estimate of accrued taxes occur periodically due to changes in tax rates, interpretations of tax laws, the status of examinations being conducted by various taxing authorities, and newly enacted statutory, judicial and regulatory guidance that impacts the relative merits and risks of tax positions. These changes, when they occur, affect accrued taxes and can be significant to the operating results of the Company.

These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, included in the 2016Schwab’s 2017 Form 10-K.
The Company’s significant accounting policies are included in Note 2 in the 20162017 Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes to these accounting policies during the first sixthree months of 20172018, except as described in Note 2 below.
Principles of Consolidation
The CompanySchwab evaluates for consolidation all entities in which it has financial interests for consolidation, except for money market funds, which are specifically excluded from consolidation guidance. ForWhen an entity subject tois evaluated for consolidation, the Company evaluatesSchwab determines whether the Company’sits interest in the entity constitutes a controlling financial interest under either the variable interest entity (VIE) model or a voting interest entity (VOE) model. Based upon the Company’s assessments, the CompanyIn evaluating whether Schwab’s interest in a VIE is not deemed to have 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, iswe are not required to consolidate any VIEs. See Note 5 for further information about VIEs. The CompanySchwab consolidates all VOEs in which it has majority-voting interests.
For investmentsInvestments in entities in which the CompanySchwab does not have a controlling financial interest the Company accountsare accounted for those investments under the equity method of accounting when the Company haswe have the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financing decisions of the entity. Investments in entities for which the CompanySchwab does not have the ability to exercise significant influence are generally carried at cost. Bothcost 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 costproportional amortization method investments are included in other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.


2.    New Accounting Standards

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

On January 1, 2017, the Company adopted, on a prospective basis, ASU 2016-09, “Stock Compensation – Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (Topic 718)”, which requires entities to recognize the income tax effects for the difference between generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and federal income tax treatment (i.e., excess tax benefit or deficiency) of share-based awards in the income statement when the awards vest or are settled, rather than recording such effects in additional paid-in capital. As a result, the Company’s tax expense was reduced by approximately $5 million and $36 million in the second quarter and first half of 2017, respectively. Future effects will depend on the Company’s share price, restricted stock vesting, and the volume of equity incentive options exercised. For the purpose of recognizing compensation cost associated with share-based awards, ASU 2016-09 also provides entities with an accounting policy election to account for forfeitures of awards as they occur or continue with current practice of estimating forfeitures at the grant date to determine the

(Unaudited)

number of awards expected to vest and adjusting that estimate as necessary. The Company has elected to continue to follow the current practice.2.    New Accounting Standards

Adoption of New Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606),” which provides new guidance on revenue recognition. The guidance clarifies that revenue from contracts with customers 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. The FASB has subsequently issued several amendments to the standard, including deferral of the effective date until January 1, 2018, clarification of principal versus agent considerations, narrow scope improvements and other technical corrections. Entities may elect either full or modified retrospective transition. Full retrospective transition will require a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the earliest comparative period presented. Modified retrospective transition will require a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the reporting period in which the entity first applies the new guidance.

The Company plans to adopt the revenue recognition guidance in the first quarter of 2018 using the modified retrospective method with a cumulative effect adjustment to opening retained earnings. The guidance does not apply to revenue associated with financial instruments, including loans and securities that are accounted for under other U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, the Company does not expect an impact to net interest revenue. The Company believes that the primary areas of potential impact of the guidance for the Company are (1) the impact on the income statement of the capitalization of costs to obtain a contract and (2) the presentation of certain revenue streams in the income statement (i.e., gross versus net reporting). With respect to the capitalization of costs to obtain a contract, the Company believes adoption of the standard will likely alter the timing, measurement and recognition of those costs in the income statement; however, the Company does not expect the impact to be material.

The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants has formed sixteen industry task forces to help assess industry specific implementation issues. Preliminary conclusions reached by the Company may be impacted by the finalized task-force papers, which have yet to be released. The next phase of the Company’s implementation work will be to evaluate any changes that may be required to the Company’s applicable disclosures. While the total revenue may be impacted by the adoption of the guidance, net income will not be affected.

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, “Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10),” which will become effective January 1, 2018. This new guidance addresses certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. The main provisions of the guidance include: (i) most equity investments are to be measured at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in net income, except for those accounted for under the equity method or those that do not have readily determinable fair values for which a practical alternative can be elected; (ii) requires the use of an exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes; and (iii) requires separate presentation of financial assets and liabilities by measurement category and form of instrument on the balance sheet or in the accompanying notes. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2016-01 will have a material impact on its financial statements and EPS.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)”, which amends the accounting for leases by lessees and lessors. The primary change as a result of the new standard 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. ASU 2016-02 will become effective January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted, and requires entities to apply the new guidance using a modified retrospective transition. Modified retrospective transition requires entities to apply the new guidance 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 reliefs are permitted if elected by the entity. The adoption of ASU 2016-02 will result in the Company recognizing a right-of-use asset and lease liability on the consolidated balance sheet based on the present value of remaining operating lease payments (see Note 14 of the Company’s 2016 Form 10-K for the undiscounted future annual minimum rental commitments for operating leases). The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have a material impact on its EPS.

StandardDescriptionDate of AdoptionEffects on the Financial Statements or Other Significant Matters
Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” and related ASUsClarifies 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, 2018The 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, 2018The 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.

StandardDescriptionDate of AdoptionEffects 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, 2018The 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, 2018The 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.

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.

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.

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 ASU 2014-09, and losses,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 fairinterest 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 Solution fees are earned and recognized over time. Fees are generally based on a percentage of the daily value of AFSassets under management and HTM securities are as follows:collected on a monthly or quarterly basis.

The increase in the HTM portfolio at June 30, 2017 compared to December 31, 2016 was primarily attributable to the transfer of $24.7 billion of investment securities from the AFS category to the HTM category during the first quarter of 2017. These securities had a total net unrealized loss of $227 million before income tax in AOCI on the date of transfer. The transfer was made to mitigate the potential volatility in regulatory capital from changes in market values in the AFS securities portfolio and the related impact to AOCI once the Company crosses $250 billion in consolidated assets. The year after the Company

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 secure certain trust deposits. The fair value of these pledged securities was $967 millionwhich CS&Co sends equity and option orders. Order flow revenue is recognized at June 30, 2017.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 in 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 March 31, 2018 and January 1, 2018, we had $230 million and $219 million of deferred contract costs, respectively. Amortization expense related to deferred contract costs was $11 million for the first quarter of 2018, which was recorded in Compensation and benefits expense.

At June 30, 2017,March 31, 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 March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, Schwab did not hold any securities on which OTTI was previously recognized.

Substantially all of the bank loans were collectively evaluated for impairment at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. There were no loans accruing interest that were contractually 90 days or more past due at June 30, 2017 or December 31, 2016. Nonperforming assets, which include nonaccrual loans and other real estate owned, totaled $30 million and $31 million at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. Impaired assets, which include nonaccrual loans, other real estate owned and troubled debt restructurings, totaled $41 million and $45 million at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. Troubled debt restructurings were not material at June 30, 2017 or December 31, 2016.
In addition to monitoring delinquency, the CompanySchwab 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 2017.March 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.
As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, 48% of the Company’s HELOC and First Mortgage portfolio was concentrated in California. These loans have performed in a manner consistent with the portfolio as a whole.

The Company’s bank loans include $8.6 billion of adjustable rateAt March 31, 2018, First Mortgage loans at June 30, 2017. The Company’sof $9.1 billion had adjustable rateinterest rates. These mortgages have initial fixed interest rates for three to ten years and interest rates that adjust annually thereafter. Approximately 34%33% of the balance of these mortgages consisted of loans with interest-only payment terms. The interest rates on approximately 60% 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.

(Unaudited)

approximately 56% of these interest-only loans are not scheduled to reset for three or more years. The Company’s mortgage loans do not include interest terms described as temporary introductory rates below current market rates.
The Company’s 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 Company’s 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:

At June 30, 2017, $1.7March 31, 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, the CompanySchwab also monitors credit risk by reviewing the delinquency status of the first lien loan on the associated property. At June 30, 2017,March 31, 2018, the borrowers on approximately 38%36% of the HELOC borrowers that had a balanceloan balances outstanding only paid the minimum amount of interest due.


5.6.    Variable Interest Entities
A VIE requires consolidation by the entity’s primary beneficiary. The Company evaluates all entities in which it has a financial interest to determine if the entity is a VIE and if so, whether the Company is the primary beneficiary. See PrinciplesAs of Consolidation in Note 1 for discussion of the Company’s evaluations of VIEs and whether it is deemed to be the primary beneficiary of any VIEs in which it holds an interest. The Company was not the primary beneficiary of, and therefore not required to consolidate any VIEs at June 30, 2017March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2016.
As2017, all of June 30, 2017Schwab’s involvement with variable interest entities (VIEs) is through CSB’s Community Reinvestment Act-related investments and December 31, 2016, the majoritymost of the Company’s VIEsthose related to Schwab Bank’s Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC)LIHTC investments. Schwab Bank’sAs 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. 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, recognized in relation to LIHTC investments areand the resulting amortization is included in taxes on income inon the condensed consolidated statements of income.

The CompanySchwab 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.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.

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

Resale and repurchase 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. Schwab utilizes theThe collateral provided under these resale agreements is utilized to meet obligations under broker-dealer client protection rules, which place limitations on itsour 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. The Company’sSchwab’s resale agreements are not subject to master netting arrangements.

Securities lending: The CompanySchwab 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, the Companywe may be exposed to the risk of acquiring the securities at prevailing market prices in order to satisfy itsour client obligations. The CompanySchwab 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 $237 million and $215 million at March 31, 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.

10.11.    Fair Values of Assets and Liabilities

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis
The Company’s
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. The CompanyWe generally obtainsobtain prices from at least three independent pricing sources for assets recorded at fair value.
The Company’s
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. The Company comparesWe compare the prices obtained from itsthe primary independent pricing service to the prices obtained from the additional independent pricing servicessources to determine if the price obtained from the primary independent pricing service is reasonable. The CompanySchwab 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.
Fair value of other financial instruments
Descriptions of the valuation methodologies and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of other financial instruments are described below. The Company’s financial instruments not recorded at fair value but for which fair value can be approximated and disclosed include:
Cash and cash equivalents are short-term in nature and accordingly are recorded at amounts that approximate fair value.
Cash and investments segregated and on deposit for regulatory purposes include cash and securities purchased under resale agreements. Securities purchased under resale agreements are short-term in nature and are backed by collateral that both exceeds the carrying value of the resale agreement and is highly liquid in nature. Accordingly, the carrying values of these financial instruments approximate their fair values.
Receivables from/payables to brokers, dealers, and clearing organizations are short-term in nature, recorded at contractual amounts and historically have been settled at those values. Accordingly, the carrying values of these financial instruments approximate their fair values.

Receivables from/payables to brokerage clientsnet are short-term in nature, recorded at contractual amounts and historically have been settled at those values. Accordingly, the carrying values of these financial instruments approximate their fair values.
HTM securities – The fair values of HTM securities are obtained using an independent third-party pricing service similar to investment assets recorded at fair value as discussed above.
Bank loans – The fair values of the Company’s First Mortgages and HELOCs are estimated based on prices of mortgage-backed securities collateralized by similar types of loans. PALs are non-purpose revolving lines of credit secured by eligible assets; accordingly, the carrying values of these loans approximate their fair values.
Financial instruments included in other assets primarily consist of LIHTC investments, cost method investments, and FHLB stock, whose carrying values approximate their fair values. FHLB stock is recorded at par, which approximates its fair value.
Bank deposits have no stated maturity and are recorded at the amount payable on demand as of the balance sheet date. The Company considers the carrying values of these deposits to approximate their fair values.
Financial instruments included in accrued expenses and other liabilities consist of drafts payable and certain amounts due under contractual obligations, including unfunded LIHTC commitments. The carrying values of these instruments approximate their fair values.
Short-term borrowings consist of commercial paper, borrowings on Schwab’s uncommitted, unsecured bank credit lines, and funds drawn on Schwab Bank’s secured credit facility with the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco. Due to the short-term nature of these borrowings, carrying value approximates fair value.
Long-term debt – Except for the finance lease obligation, the fair values of long-term debt are estimated using indicative, non-binding quotes from independent brokers. The Company validates indicative prices for its debt through comparison to other independent non-binding quotes. The finance lease obligation is recorded at carrying value, which approximates fair value.
Firm commitments to extend credit – The Company extends credit to banking clients through HELOCs and PALs. The Company considers the fair value of these unused commitments to not be material because the interest rates earned on these balances are based on floating interest rates that reset monthly.
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 20162017 Form 10-K. There were no significant changes in these policies and methodologies during the first six months of 2017. The CompanyWe did not transfer any assets or liabilities between Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 during the sixthree months ended June 30, 2017,March 31, 2018, or the year ended December 31, 2016.2017. In addition, the Company did not adjust prices received from the primary independent third-party pricing service at June 30, 2017March 31, 2018 or December 31, 2016.2017.

14.    Regulatory RequirementsTaxes 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. In connection with our initial analysis of the impact of the Tax Act, Schwab’s effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2018, was 21.9% compared to 33.1% for the same period in 2017.

At June 30,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 both CSCassociated with the remeasurement of net deferred tax assets and Schwab Bank met allother tax adjustments related to the Tax Act. While we were able to make a reasonable estimate of their respective capital requirements. Certain events,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 including, but not limited to, bonus depreciation that will allow for immediate expensing of qualified property and the state tax effect of adjustments made to federal temporary differences. As such, as growth in bank depositsthe impact of the Tax Act is an estimate pending further information and regulatory discretion, could adversely affect CSC’s or Schwab Bank’s ability to meet future capital requirements.

the analysis noted.

The regulatory capitalSchwab did not record any material measurement-period adjustments related to the Tax Act during the first quarter of 2018. We are continuing to gather additional information to complete the accounting for estimated items and ratiosexpect to complete the accounting within the prescribed measurement period. As of January 1, 2018, Schwab adopted new accounting guidance that decreased AOCI and increased retained earnings by $33 million for CSC and Schwab Bank arethe reclassification of certain impacts of the Tax Act as follows:described in Note 2.
