FuboTV growth and perks under CEO Bowen

Overview

In early July 2026, streaming platform fuboTV announced that Alisa Bowen would take over as chief executive officer, succeeding co‑founder David Gandler, who stepped down from the role. Later that month, at the company’s 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, shareholders overwhelmingly approved a series of governance reforms. The board elected eight directors, including Bowen, and eliminated a special voting provision that had protected Hulu‑designated directors, allowing any director to be removed by a simple majority. Additional measures ratified the company’s independent auditor, approved executive compensation, and expanded the 2020 Equity Incentive Plan with 7 million new Class A shares.

In August 2026, fuboTV reported that its paid subscriber base grew to about 5.75 million, adding roughly 120,000 customers in the fiscal third quarter. Revenue rose 38 % year‑over‑year to $1.48 billion, while the net loss narrowed to $25.7 million. The company credited heightened viewership of the FIFA World Cup and the NBA Finals, as well as a migration to Disney’s advertising platform, for improved CPMs and fill rates. fuboTV also launched “Fubo Perks,” a benefits program offering discounts and access to partners such as The Athletic, Sam’s Club, ESPN Unlimited, and various entertainment networks. Under Bowen’s leadership, the firm emphasized flexible pricing, expanded content, new distribution partnerships, and continued investment in technology and AI, while further integrating its live‑TV offering with Hulu + Live TV within the Disney ecosystem.
