                    NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                               SEPTEMBER 30, 2000

1.  GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE COMPANY

The consolidated condensed financial statements include the accounts of
VideoPropulsion Inc. ("VDOP"), Inc. and have been prepared by the Company,
without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission.

The historical share data in this report has been adjusted to reflect the effect
of the 4-for-1 stock split on July 3, 2000.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements, prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and
regulations, and as such, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate
to make the information presented not misleading.  The results for the quarter
ended September 30, 2000 may not be indicative of the results for the entire
year.  It is suggested these statements be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-
SB/A for the Company's fiscal year ended December 31, 1999.

In August of 1999, the board of directors of GENROCO,Inc. (VDOP's parent
corporation) began contemplating the spin-off and distribution of the Company's
Digital Video Broadcast (DVB) business as a separate company to be named
VideoPropulsion, Inc.  The Company executed the distribution on July 10, 2000 by
issuing one new share of VideoPropulsion Inc. stock, for each share of Company
stock held by GENROCO shareholders of record, as of the close of business on
June 30, 2000.

Complete details are available in the amended SEC Form 10SB/A for
VideoPropulsion, which was filed with the SEC on June 19, 2000 and mailed to
each shareholder, as an information statement, on June 20, 2000.

months ended June 30, 2000, as filed with the SEC on August 14, 2000.

Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
of Operations
-------------

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------

Net sales for the Company for the three months ended September 30, 2000
("2000"), were $176,293 compared to $193,505 for the three months ended
September 30, 1999 ("1999"). Net sales for the Company for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 were $549,071 compared to $532,547 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999.  Revenue has remained flat over the year in that most orders
continue to be for products being used in development, beta test, and initial
trials of interactive television.

While traditional television has grown to serve over 100 million US households
during the past fifty years, digital TV has only begun to be deployed. As cable,
satellite, and terrestrial providers begin the shift to digital broadcasting,
volumes of enabling technology products can be expected to ramp up dramatically.
Management is confident that the Company has placed its hardware and software
products into a sufficient number of key players in this emerging marketplace in
order to garner significant future sales as the rollout unfolds.

In addition, interactive TV is expected to combine the established force of
television with the budding success of the Internet. This evolution is referred
to as the convergence, and it will define new markets and shape the future of
broadcasting.  Management believes that the Company's existing products and
current developments will allow VideoPropulsion to achieve sales growth via in
this emerging opportunity.

Cost of goods sold for the three months ended September 30, 2000 was $25,722,
compared to $39,286 for the three months ended September 30, 1999.  Cost of
goods sold for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 was $104,202, compared
to $117,558 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999.  This expense, which
was comprised of parts, labor and overhead associated with production and
testing of circuit boards shipped to customers, increased as sales increased.

Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2000 was $150,571 compared
to $154,219 for the three months ended September 30, 1999. Gross profit for the
nine months ended September 30, 2000 was $442,869 compared to $414,989 for the
nine months ended September 30, 1999.

The resulting gross margin percentages were 85.4% and 79.7% for the three months
ended September 30, 2000 and September 30, 1999, respectively. The resulting
gross margin percentages were 81.0% and 78.0% for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 and September 30, 1999, respectively.  These gross margin
percentages may not be indicative of future performance because as sources of
revenue begin to shift from the current research and development type of
customer base to a more mainstream application based customer base, revenues are
expected to increase  significantly, but at the expense of lower gross margin
percentages.

Engineering expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2000 were $169,809
compared to $63,574 for the three months ended September 30, 1999, or 96.3% and
32.9% of net sales for 2000 and 1999 respectively.  Engineering expenses for the
nine months ended September 30, 2000 were $385,967 compared to $206,866 for the
nine months ended September 30, 1999, or 70.6% and 38.9% of net sales for 2000
and 1990 respectively.  The increases are primarily associated with additional
personnel costs.  As of September 30, 2000, the Company had eight employees,
five of whom were involved with the Company's engineering effort.

Selling and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30,
2000 were $120,079 compared to $59,981 for the three months ended September 30,
1999 or 68.1% and 31.0% of net sales for 2000 and 1999, respectively.  Selling
and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30,2000 were
$503,187 compared to $146,022 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 or
92.0% and 27.4% of net sales for 2000 and 1999, respectively. The increases are
primarily associated with additional personnel costs related to the areas of
sales and marketing.  As of September 30, 2000, the Company had eight employees,
three of whom were involved with the Company's sales, marketing and
administrative efforts.

The Company's provision for income tax expense was zero in 2000 and 1999.

Net Loss  for the three months ended September 30, 2000 was $139,331 ($.01 per
share) compared to a gain of $30,664 ($.00 per share) for the three months ended
September 30, 1999.  Net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 was
$454,372 ($.02 per share) compared to income of $62,101 ($.00 per share) for the
nine months ended September 30, 1999.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's cash position at September 30, 2000 was $24,572, an increase from
$9,947 at December 31, 1999.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2000, net cash used in operating
activities was $272,864 versus $0 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999.

Cash flows from investing activities for the nine months ended September 30,
2000 was $12,511 relating to the acquisition of equipment versus $0 for the
nine months ended September 30, 1999.

Cash flows from financing activities for the nine months ended September 30,
2000 were $300,000 in the form of a capital contribution from the parent
(GENROCO, Inc.), versus $0 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999.

Stockholders' equity decreased by $154,372 to $(91,489) at September 30, 2000
from $62,883 at December 31, 1999.  The decrease is the result of a net loss
totaling $454,372 offset by a $300,000 capital contribution by the parent.

The Company's ratio of current assets to current liabilities (current ratio) was
 .55 to 1 at September 30, 2000 versus 4.03 to 1 at December 31, 1999.

At December 31, 1999 and September 30, 2000, the Company had no bank line and is
dependent upon favorable business terms from GENROCO, Inc. for sources of
working capital.

The Company continues to generate negative cash flows from operations.  Current
forecasts indicate that the Company may not be unable to fund current plans
beyond the fourth quarter of fiscal 2000 unless it is able to raise additional
capital.

The Company is seeking to engage an investment advisor, on a best efforts basis,
to advise the Company in its efforts to raise additional working capital in the
form of private placement equity during the next few months.  The Company is
also continuing to discuss long-term financing arrangements with strategic
partners, institutional investors and venture capital companies in an effort to
do a secondary equity offering during fiscal 2001.  These discussions are in the
preliminary phase, and the Company has no firm commitments from any potential
investor to invest additional capital in the Company.  There can be no
assurances that additional capital will be raised, either through a private
placement or by other means.  In the event that the Company is not successful in
its efforts to raise additional working capital, as contemplated above, it will
be forced to cut back on general overhead and product development expenses,
which will serve to delay the release of new products.

If the Company is not successful in raising additional capital, the Company will
not be able to continue its current operations and there is substantial doubt as
to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.  There can be no
assurance that the Company will be successful in raising such capital at all or
on terms commercially acceptable to the Company or the current shareholders.  In
addition, the sale of equitable securities could result in the dilution to the
percentage ownership interests of existing shareholders and could also adversely
affect the market price of the Company's common stock.

No events requiring that the Company file an SEC Form 8-K have occurred.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT
