Try this...

=--TEXT(MID(A1,FIND("Z",A1)-4,4),"00\:00")

Format as hh:mm

0 is the numeric value for 12:00 AM (or 00:00).

If you use the formula as posted then you have to format the cells that contain the formula in some time format.

If you remove the "--" then the result of the formula is a TEXT string and is not a true Excel time value.
