Fubo Appoints Alisa Bowen as Chief Executive Officer

FuboTV Inc. has announced the appointment of Alisa Bowen as Chief Executive Officer, effective July 10. Bowen succeeds David Gandler, who co-founded the company. Bowen is also expected to join the Board of Directors following the company's Annual Meeting of Stockholders on July 28, 2026, pending board approval. Gandler has resigned from the Board.

Bowen most recently served as President of Disney , having been a founding member of Disney's Streaming Leadership team overseeing the global buildout and scaling of Disney , Hulu, and ESPN . Prior to Disney, she held leadership positions at News Corporation, Dow Jones, and Thomson Reuters.

Following the combination with Hulu Live TV last year, Fubo has reached a pivotal moment in its strategic evolution, with a compelling Pay TV platform, strong content portfolio and unique integration in the Disney ecosystem, says Andy Bird, Chairman, Fubo Board of Directors. Alisa's appointment is the culmination of a thoughtful process led by the independent directors of the Board to find the next leader to advance Fubo's strategy and performance. Alisa is a proven operator who brings nearly 30 years of product, digital and operational experience, including leadership across Disney , Hulu and ESPN . She has an established track record of driving global subscriber growth and profitability, and we look forward to benefiting from her experience and expertise as Fubo enters its next chapter.

I am excited to lead Fubo in its next phase as we sharpen its strategy across sports, news and entertainment, accelerate growth and drive profitability, while delivering even greater value to Fubo and Hulu Live subscribers, our advertisers and our content partners. I look forward to working closely alongside this talented leadership team to strengthen Fubo as an industry leader and create significant value for all of our shareholders, says Alisa Bowen, CEO, Fubo.

On behalf of the Board, I want to thank David for his leadership and dedication to the Company. As a co-founder, David brought a pioneering vision and leadership that were instrumental in building Fubo into the platform it is today, leading the combination with Hulu Live and providing a strong foundation for future growth. We appreciate all that he has done for the Company and wish him the best, says Bird.

It has been an honor to lead Fubo since co-founding the Company, and I am incredibly proud of everything our team has accomplished over the past 11 years. We have built a dynamic streaming platform centered around innovative multichannel video programming distribution into one of the largest Pay TV providers in the United States. Today, Fubo has best-in-class programming partnerships, innovative service offerings and preeminent live sports and entertainment content and is well positioned for the future. I look forward to following the Company's continued growth and success in the months and years ahead, says David Gandler, outgoing CEO and Co-Founder, Fubo.
