You can go to parent tr of that label and then direct child node of type td.

driver.find_element_by_xpath('//label[contains(text(), "CompanyId")]//parent::tr/td').text

That is assuming there is only one td in that tr.

The following xpath should work:

//th[label[contains(text(),'CompanyId')]]/following-sibling::td

Relevant line of code:

driver.find_element_by_xpath("//th[label[contains(text(),'CompanyId')]]/following-sibling::td").text

Note: by default the xpath will select the first occurrence of a td - in this case CompanyId looks like a label that is immediately followed by the data you are looking for. You could always use an index of you always want the first td

//th[label[contains(text(),'CompanyId')]]/following-sibling::td[1]
