"Benchmarking Feedback" meaning

After my interview for a summer analyst position, I received an email saying they were still "benchmarking feedback" and would update me on my candidacy early next week. Does this mean I'm deferred considering I was originally told superdays would be last week? Or is this just straight up a rejection lol
