APO vs JCI Comparison

Apollo is one of the world's largest alternative asset managers, with $1.047 trillion in total assets under management, or AUM, including $858.0 billion in fee-earning assets, at the end of June 2026. The company has two core operating segments: asset management and retirement services. Apollo operates with scale in most of its major asset management endeavors—private equity (with an estimated $137.2 billion in total AUM and $76.3 billion in fee-earning AUM), real estate/real assets ($60.8 billion/$27.6 billion), and credit ($849.3 billion/$754.1 billion). Apollo has a distribution profile that is likely not too far off from the industry averages—with 84% of its assets held by institutional investors and 16% by high-net-worth clients.

Following Johnson Controls' divestiture of its residential and light commercial HVAC businesses to Bosch in 2025, nearly all of its revenue comes from commercial HVAC (60%) and fire and security products and services (40%). A 2016 merger joined Johnson Controls' HVAC and Tyco's fire and security businesses with the premise that there is synergy in offering a broader variety of automation products and solutions to commercial buildings. We estimate Johnson Controls' pro forma revenue mix will be one-third products, one-third installation, and one-third services.
