Assuming
A2:A10 contains real dates
B2:B10 contains say, names, eg: x, y, z
C2:C10 contains the values that's desired
then you could have something like this in D2,
array-entered (press CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER to confirm the formula):
=INDEX(C2:C10,MATCH(MAX(IF(B2:B10="x",A2:A10)),IF(B2:B10="x",A2:A10),0))
which will extract the value in col C for the name = x which corresponds to
the max (ie the latest) date in col A
