Under the new schedule, every calendar day will be a record date, with payment on the next business day. STRC will move first, with its first daily record date on November 1 and payment on November 2, Saylor added. STRF, STRK and STRD will follow, with their first record date on January 1 and payment on January 4.
The change still depends on Strategy filing amended terms for each stock, according to the filing.

The Depository Trust Company will treat a weekend or holiday record date as falling on the previous business day, which Nasdaq will also treat as the ex-dividend date.
For example, dividends with record dates of Friday, November 6, Saturday, November 7 and Sunday, November 8 would all be treated as having a Friday record date and paid together on Monday, November 9, Strategy said. Because trades settle the next business day, an investor who buys STRC on that Friday would not receive any of the three dividends, while one who sells that day would still receive all three. Treatment could differ for shares traded outside Nasdaq or held through some brokers, the company said.
