TOKYO—Japan’s beleaguered Toshiba Corp. said on May 13 that it has received interest from 10 potential investors after soliciting buyout offers.

The conglomerate, long under pressure from activist shareholders, also announced a special dividend worth some $545 million, the second year in a row it has issued such a payout.
