You could use the following array formula (input with Ctrl-Shift-Enter):
=IF(ISERROR(RIGHT(MID(A1,MIN(IF(ISNUMBER((--MID(A1,ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(A1))),1))),(ROW(INDIR ECT("1:"&LEN(A1)))),"")),LEN(A1)-MIN(IF(ISNUMBER((--MID(A1,ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(A1))),1))),(ROW(INDIR ECT("1:"&LEN(A1)))),""))+1),LEN(A1)-FIND(")",A1))),MID(A1,MIN(IF(ISNUMBER((--MID(A1,ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(A1))),1))),(ROW(INDIR ECT("1:"&LEN(A1)))),"")),LEN(A1)-MIN(IF(ISNUMBER((--MID(A1,ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(A1))),1))),(ROW(INDIR ECT("1:"&LEN(A1)))),""))+1),RIGHT(MID(A1,MIN(IF(IS NUMBER((--MID(A1,ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(A1))),1))),(ROW(INDIR ECT("1:"&LEN(A1)))),"")),LEN(A1)-MIN(IF(ISNUMBER((--MID(A1,ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(A1))),1))),(ROW(INDIR ECT("1:"&LEN(A1)))),""))+1),LEN(A1)-FIND(")",A1)))
