Feb 18 (Reuters) - New Zealand's Fletcher Building FBU.NZ reported a narrower first-half loss on Wednesday, supported by a steady performance at its core manufacturing business and cost-control measures.

The Auckland-based construction materials maker said its net loss attributable was NZ$11 million ($6.65 million) for the six months ended December 31, compared with a loss of NZ$134 million a year ago.
