As previously disclosed, on June 24, 2025, Noodles & Company (the “Company”) received a deficiency letter (the “Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that because the closing bid price per share of the Company’s common stock was below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days preceding the date of the Notice, the Company did not meet the $1.00 per share minimum bid price requirement for continued inclusion on The Nasdaq Global Select Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A) (the “Bid Price Rule”).

On March 5, 2026, the Company received a letter from the Staff notifying the Company that it had regained compliance with the Bid Price Rule as a result of the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock being at $1.00 per share or greater for the prior 10 consecutive business days. Accordingly, the letter indicated the Company is in compliance with the Bid Price Rule and the matter is closed.
