Item 8.01 Other Events

The Charles Schwab Corporation (the Company) is filing this Current Report on Form 8-K for the purpose of conforming certain of its historical segment information to reflect the realignment of the Company’s reportable segments as a result of organizational changes. The segment formerly reported as Institutional Services was renamed to Advisor Services. Additionally, the Retirement Plan Services and Corporate Brokerage Services business units are now part of the Investor Services segment. These segment changes were made in the first quarter of 2013 and reflect the manner in which the Company currently manages its business.

This Current Report on Form 8-K updates the following items in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, to reflect the segment change:

Form 10-K:

   Item 1. Business

   Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

   Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data (revisions to Notes 9 and 25)

All updates to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K relate solely to the presentation of segment-specific disclosures on a basis consistent with the current segment reporting structure. These updates have no effect on the Company’s previously reported results of operations, financial position, or cash flows. All other information in the Annual Report on Form 10-K remains unchanged and has not been otherwise updated for events occurring after December 31, 2012. The information in this Current Report on Form 8–K should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (except for the items updated herein).

The information in this Current Report on Form 8-K is deemed incorporated by reference into the Company’s registration statements filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1933, as amended.
