The change reflects pressure on growth following Flutter's cut to its 2026 earnings view.

Overview

  • Flutter said Wednesday that Amy Howe left as FanDuel CEO, naming president Christian Genetski to lead, as several outlets reported she was pushed out.
  • The company also reorganized senior roles by creating a Group President position for Dan Taylor to drive commercial delivery across its global brands.
  • Flutter lowered its 2026 adjusted earnings outlook to $2.87 billion after unfavorable sports results and launch costs in Arkansas, following first‑quarter revenue of about $4.3 billion.
  • CEO Peter Jackson said Flutter will invest $300 million in FanDuel Predicts, and the company began market making for a major third‑party prediction platform in April.
