The Broomfield, Colorado-based company (Nasdaq: NDLS) plans to close 13 to 17 company-owned restaurants and four franchised stores, according to Noodles & Co.’s first-quarter earnings report.

The company has not announced which locations will close. As of April 1, Noodles & Co. has 369 company-owned restaurants and 91 franchised locations, the company said in its earnings report.
