NDLS

Noodles & Company has executed a genuine turnaround, with traffic, unit volumes, and margins all improving despite a shrinking restaurant base. NDLS's earnings recovery relies almost entirely on margin expansion, as consolidated revenue remains flat due to ongoing restaurant closures. Valuation appears fair at ~10x forward EBITDA and ~40x expected 2027 earnings, given operational progress but persistent balance sheet and refinancing risks.

Noodles & Company NASDAQ: NDLS reported second-quarter 2026 revenue of $127 million, up $600,000 from a year earlier, as double-digit comparable restaurant sales growth largely offset the impact of restaurant closures. The company also raised its full-year outlook for revenue, restaurant contribution margin and adjusted EBITDA.
