Use the substring-after() and substring-before() functions,

<xsl:value-of
select="substring-before(substring-after(substring-after(MVLC_ISS_DATE,
'-'), '-'), 'T')"/>

<xsl:text>-</xsl:text>

<xsl:value-of select="substring-before(substring-after(MVLC_ISS_DATE,
'-'), '-')"/>
  
<xsl:text>-</xsl:text>
  
<xsl:value-of select="substring-before(MVLC_ISS_DATE, '-')"/>
