It's really hard to say they're in a bad situation, given the company's age, the newness of the technology they're flying, and the relative low cost: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Falcon_9_and_Falcon_He... compared to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Atlas_launches_(2010%E... or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Ariane_launches_(2010%...

Six/Seven launches a year puts them quite comparable to Ariane, and only slightly behind the nearly twice as expensive Atlas flights. Nobody is going to fault SpaceX for taking a breather for a day to help ensure their hardware reaches orbit rather than launching through an anomaly and raising the risk of a failure.
