Tain't when, 'tis how.
Pyracantha flower on spurs that grow off older wood. You should cut
the current year's growth back hard, which is also a good idea to
stop it getting out of control. You can do that at any time from
late spring to winter, and I used to do it twice a year when I got
around to it (i.e. early summer and late autumn).
