Appending to filename a string of text grep finds

I am wanting to automate a process that includes the step of appending to a filename a string of text that's contained inside the file. I.e. if filename A.fileA contains a string of text that reads 1234 after the phrase ABC, I want the shell script file to rename the file 1234_FileChecked_A.fileA.

Any hints?

Thanks.

PKEYPARAM(1)							      OpenSSL							      PKEYPARAM(1)

NAME
pkeyparam - public key algorithm parameter processing tool SYNOPSIS
openssl pkeyparam [-in filename] [-out filename] [-text] [-noout] [-engine id] DESCRIPTION
The pkey command processes public or private keys. They can be converted between various forms and their components printed out. COMMAND OPTIONS
-in filename This specifies the input filename to read parameters from or standard input if this option is not specified. -out filename This specifies the output filename to write parameters to or standard output if this option is not specified. -text prints out the parameters in plain text in addition to the encoded version. -noout do not output the encoded version of the parameters. -engine id specifying an engine (by its unique id string) will cause pkeyparam to attempt to obtain a functional reference to the specified engine, thus initialising it if needed. The engine will then be set as the default for all available algorithms. EXAMPLE
Print out text version of parameters: openssl pkeyparam -in param.pem -text NOTES
There are no -inform or -outform options for this command because only PEM format is supported because the key type is determined by the PEM headers. SEE ALSO
