I don't understand this sentence, sorry. ;-)

The values of the coefficients as estimated by the model are in the
first column, "Estimate". The value of the intercept is reported the
same way as the coefficients, so it's in the "Estimate" column of
the
"(Intercept)" row.
Standard errors are reported, well, in the "Std. Error" column, for
each
coefficient (including the intercept). If you need the 95% confidence
interval, see ?confint.
Hope this helps
