It predicts the average difference in ease with which a sire s calves will be born when he is bred to first-calf heifers. Birth Weight EPD (), expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire s ability to transmit birth weight to his progeny compared to that of other sires. Weaning Weight EPD (), expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire s ability to transmit weaning growth to his progeny compared to that of other sires.

MATERNAL Heifer Pregnancy (), is a selection tool to increase the probability or chance of a sire s daughters becoming pregnant as first calf heifers during a normal breeding season. A higher EPD is the more favorable direction, and the EPD is reported in percentage units. Calving Ease Maternal (CEM), is expressed as a difference in percentage of unassisted births with a higher value indicating greater calving ease in first-calf daughters.

Weaned Calf Value () an index value expressed in dollars per head, is the expected average difference in future progeny performance for preweaning merit. includes both revenue and cost adjustments associated with differences in birth weight, weaning direct growth, maternal milk, and mature cow size. Feedlot Value () an index value expressed in dollars per head, is the expected average difference in future progeny performance for post weaning merit compared to progeny of other sires.
