Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

On June 24, 2025, Noodles & Company (the “Company”) received a notification letter (the “Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq’s Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”) for continued listing on The Nasdaq Global Select Market. Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) requires listed securities maintain a minimum closing bid price of $1.00 per share, and Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A) provides that a failure to meet the minimum closing bid price requirement exists if the deficiency continues for a period of 30 consecutive business days. Based on the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock for the 30 consecutive business days prior to the date of the Notice, the Company does not currently meet the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. The Notice has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s common stock on The Nasdaq Global Select Market.

In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has 180 calendar days, or until December 22, 2025, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. To regain compliance, the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock must be at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten consecutive business days during this 180-calendar day grace period (the “Compliance Period”), unless Nasdaq exercises its discretion to extend this ten-day period. If the Company has not been deemed in compliance prior to the expiration of the Compliance Period, the Company may be eligible for an additional 180-day compliance period if it applies to transfer the listing of its common stock to The Nasdaq Capital Market (the “Second Compliance Period”). To qualify, the Company must meet the continued listing requirement for the applicable market value of publicly held shares requirement and all other applicable initial listing standards for The Nasdaq Capital Market (with the exception of the minimum bid price requirement) based on the Company’s most recent public filings and market information and provide written notice of its intention to cure the minimum bid price deficiency. However, if it appears to Nasdaq that the Company will be unable to cure the deficiency, or if the Company is otherwise not eligible for the Second Compliance Period, Nasdaq would notify the Company that its common stock would be subject to delisting. The Company may appeal any such determination to delist its securities, but there can be no assurance that any such appeal would be successful.

The Company intends to monitor closely the closing bid price of its common stock and to consider all of the options for regaining compliance with Nasdaq’s Listing Rule 5450(a)(1), including by proposing a reverse stock split for stockholder approval, if necessary. While the Company plans to review all available options, there can be no assurance that it will be able to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) during the 180-calendar day compliance period or any subsequent extension period.

SIGNATURE

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
