It sounds like a small admission. They were impressed with the way you were going to approach the project - and they've used it as a resource to guide the project. It read to me, like they were trying to reassure you that you provided sound advice.
I'd maybe suggest you're a little 'surprised'; while you're pleased they were impressed with your methodology, you would have ordinary expected some form of compensation if a company choose to make use of consultancy advice which adds value to it's business.
I'd then explain that - even though the above is true - you hold no hard feelings, and that you enjoyed pitching for them. You have a lot more to offer, have taken their feedback on board and look forward to working with them more fully in the future.
