In the attached file in A1 I manually entered the desired result
the maximum value of column B.
Thank you

Is the max value only the last four digits of the text. Is the text always preceded by 12/? What would happen if there was different precedent?

Hi the final digits are 4 example 0001,0125...
is preceded by 2 digits which can be 12,15,18,20 ....
Yes, but do the preceding digits, ie. 12 ,15 etc. have any thing to do with determining the max number.
No, consider that the previous figures can indicate the last 2 digits of a year then we have the / and then that progressive 4-digit number but, not in order on the lines, the largest is not said to be in the last line yes can find in any cell of column B
Please try
=TEXT(MAX(INDEX(--TEXT(SUBSTITUTE(RIGHT(B2:B39,4),"/",),"0;;;\0"),)),"AA 00\/0000")
or only consider last 4 digit
=VLOOKUP(TEXT(MAX(INDEX(--TEXT(RIGHT(B2:B39,4),"0;;;\0"),)),"\*0000"),B2:B39,1,0)
