On January 10, 2020 Portola announced that its preliminary fourth quarter revenue from its drug Andexxa, an antidote for patients treated with anticoagulants, would only be approximately $28 million which was substantially below the $39 million estimate and $41 million consensus. Portola attributed the performance in part to cost-cutting at hospitals noting that "hospital pharmacies curtailed use of Andexxa following drug utilization reviews in an effort to manage pharmacy budgets."

On this news, shares of Portola dropped precipitously during intra-day trading on January 10, 2020.
