For native English speakers. What does this "our case to beat" mean?

Question

Hi, there! I'd like to ask about the followning sentence.

we expect to allocate the after-tax proceeds to further share repurchases, or invest in other business-development opportunities, with the return on share repurchases remaining our case to beat.

"Our case to beat" is the complement of the verb "remain," right?
And I wonder what "our case to beat" means. 
This is extracted from this article.

I'd appreciate any help.
