Dutch translation:benchmark return/profitability/profit margin
Explanation:
What is meant is that they made a profit which could be seen as a benchmark (i.e. the standard by which to measure the others) or which could be used by others as a reference for their own profitability.

Rentabilité could either refer to their return on investment, but rentability is a general term, not specified here. As a general term it would have to be profitability or return, but specifically it could be the profit margin on goods.

You could pick benchmark profitability. Check that on google, nice hits, for reference.
