FanDuel CEO Amy Howe exits after five years of rapid sportsbook growth See what Christian Genetski’s takeover could mean for Flutter and betting
Amy Howe has left her role as CEO of FanDuel after five years leading the sportsbook, according to people familiar with the matter.
Christian Genetski, who is FanDuel’s president, is expected to take over. Howe became chief executive in 2021 and led the company during a period of rapid growth in sports betting and online gambling across multiple U.S. states.
The leadership change comes as parent company Flutter has faced pressure from weakerthanexpected guidance, broader declines in gaming stocks, and concerns about competition from prediction markets and consumer spending. Howe was also known in the industry for her focus on responsible gaming and for avoiding certain college sports marketing practices.
