I have performed ROE DuPont Analysis on APOLLO vs LONBISC and make a conclusion that APOLLO is much more efficient than LONBISC as APOLLO have a higher ROE for the pass 5 year which achieved by higher net profit margin, higher asset turnover and low financial leverage.

However, there are some pitfalls of using ROE for measurement as ROE can be increased with debt. And, some might argue that not all of the assets hold by company was contribute to the return. Owing to this, it is good to perform another analysis to evaluate my previous conclusion. On this article, I will perform Retrun on Invested Capital (ROIC) analysis on APOLLO and LONBISC. ROIC would tell the investor the return of a firm was generated by how much capital (include debt).

You can refer to the end of this article for the detail calculations. And, the caculcation reveal that

APPOLO generated 42,449 of Operating Income from a Invested Capital of 165,900 while LONBISC only able to generate a operating income of 31,004 eventhough LONBISC invested 595,040 on its capital.
APPOLO's invested capital grew just by about 60% (from 105,187 to 165,900) while LONBISC's invested capital grew substantially from 203,606 to 595,040 (a 192% growth rate)
APOLLO able to achieve ROIC of 19.34% but LONBISC only able to achieve a 4.18% ROIC. And, this is in line with the ROE comparison - 13.94% vs 4.15%
APPOLO's ROIC is about twice of its WACC (10%) while LONBISC ROIC is lesser than its WACC of 8.77%. We need to bear in mind that A company creates value only if its ROIC is higher than itsWACC.
APOLLO's ROIC is on downtred from year 2006 (19.74%) to year 2011 (11.57%) but it has recovered to 19.34% on year 2013. LONBISC's ROIC was dropped from 9.26% (year 2006) to 4.81% (year 2013) and there is no sign of recover. And, LONBISC's ROIC is lower than its WACC most of the time. This show that LONBISC not able to create value to it's shareholder since year 2006.
