I want to search a row E for some text of variable length but always starting with the same "NNN-MMM" and populate column A with this text

Can anyone please help me with a formula for the above? I want the cells of column A to populate with the text starting with "NNN-MMM". I need to search the corresponding cell of column E for this text. Please see the picture to illustrate what I mean:
