Amy Howe has been removed as CEO of FanDuel after five years, with FanDuel president Christian Genetski stepping in to lead. Howe guided the company through significant growth in sports betting but faced challenges including increased competition from prediction markets and softer consumer spending. FanDuel's parent company Flutter's shares have dropped nearly 60% in the past year due to these pressures and missed earnings guidance. The leadership change comes as Flutter plans to invest $300 million in FanDuel's prediction platform to boost growth in 2026.
