Recent Company History

Over the past two years, Noodles & Company has used branded collaborations to augment its menu, as seen with the Care Bears™ Share Menu launched on Aug 28, 2024. That limited-time partnership, focused on family-oriented bundles and themed items, saw a -2.58% next-day move. Today’s CRAVINGS™ collaboration fits this pattern of promotional tie-ins rather than a fundamental financial update.

Limited-time Chrissy Teigen's CRAVINGS™ bundle available nationwide through May 31

BROOMFIELD, Colo., May 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- This spring, Noodles & Company (NASDAQ: NDLS) is bringing together two things guests love most: comforting noodles and crave-worthy indulgence. In partnership with CRAVINGS™ by Chrissy Teigen, the brand is introducing a limited-time menu collaboration that delivers bold flavor, seasonal freshness, and a playful twist on comfort food.
