Outdoor Voices confirmed Haney's exit to BuzzFeed News. The company did not immediately return a request for comment from Business Insider.
Haney's reported exit comes just days after Outdoor Voices said she would step down from her role as CEO, but stay on at the company in a "new position" as founder. The company also said she would remain on the board of directors and assist with the search for its new CEO.
Outdoor Voices had confirmed Haney's role change following a Business of Fashion report saying the company's board had forced the 31-year-old founder to step aside amid financial struggles.
Haney founded Outdoor Voices in 2013. While the company searches for a new chief executive, Cliff Moskowitz, the president of InterLux , will serve as interim CEO.
