TOKYO, Aug. 15, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SYLA Technologies Co., Ltd. (NASDAQ: SYT) (“SYLA” or “the Company”), operator of the largest membership real estate crowd-funding platform in Japan, Rimawari-kun, announced that its Board of Directors has resolved that the Company will pay an interim dividend of ¥70 per common share (equivalent to $0.48 per share at August 11 exchange rate of $1.00 = ¥144.94; 1 share = 100 ADRs) with a record date for ADR holders of August 31, 2023, to shareholders.

On May 17, 2023, SYLA announced a plan to double the annual dividend for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023 to ¥140 per share from ¥70 per share in the previous fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, with the aim of realizing a payout ratio of 30% over an extended period.
