"Can you explain to me the difference between a million shares at $1 and a thousand shares at $1000, with reference to how this affects BBI, thank you."
The difference is that the $1 share may be more liquid. Sometimes share splits are done to bring down the share price to a more manageable level for smaller punters.
Certainly, the fact that BBI has so many issued shares is completely irrelevant in this case. Only market cap is important.
