Without going into a lot of detail (cuz I just don't have time), I would
suggest you try copy/pasting it into Word, then using Word's "convert text
to table" utility, then copy that table and paste it into Excel.

Subject: [mso] PDF import to Excel

Does anybody have a solution to copying data from a PDF formatted report and
pasting into an excel spreadsheet, so that the individual data goes into
relevant cells.
Whereas a normal paste or paste special both dumps each line of values into
a single cell per row.
