                             VIDEOPROPULSION, INC.
                    NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 June 30, 2001

1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The condensed financial statements include the accounts of VideoPropulsion, Inc.
(the "Company"), 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 six
months ended June 30, 2001 may not be indicative of the results for the entire
year.  These statements should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-KSB for the
Company's fiscal year ended December 31, 2000.

2.  GOING CONCERN

The Company continues to generate negative cash flows from operations.  Current
forecasts indicate that the Company may be unable to fund current plans beyond
the third quarter of fiscal 2001 unless it is able to raise additional capital.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2001, the Company assumed from GENROCO, Inc.,
a related party (see Note 4), approximately $182,000 in amounts due on demand to
shareholders.  The Company has approximately $674,000 outstanding at June 30,
2001, due on demand to shareholders.  During the quarter ended June 30, 2001,
the Company fully reserved for a $409,666 receivable from GENROCO, Inc., because
GENROCO, Inc. currently does not have the wherewithal to fund this obligation.
There can be no assurances that GENROCO, Inc. or existing shareholders will
continue to fund or have the resources to fund the Company's operations in this
manner.

The Company is considered a development stage company.  A market for the
Company's products may not develop.  The Company's growth will be limited if the
DVB (see Note 4) technology and solutions do not become widely accepted.  The
Company's development efforts are focused on the DVB market, which has only
begun to develop and is rapidly evolving.

The Company believes that the combination of current existing cash and the
Company's ability to obtain additional long-term indebtedness is not adequate to
finance the Company's operations for the current activities and foreseeable
future.  As a result, the Company does not have adequate cash to meet current
obligations and is currently delinquent in payments to its vendors and service
providers.  Management is currently seeking to raise additional capital either
through a private placement or a stock offering.  To date, no additional capital
has been raised and in light of economic conditions will be difficult.

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
assurances that the Company will be successful in raising such capital at all or
on terms commercially acceptable to the Company or shareholders.  The financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of
this uncertainty.

3.  INVENTORIES

Cost of the Company's inventory is determined using the average cost first-in,
first-out (FIFO) inventory valuation method.  The distribution between major
classes of inventories is as follows:

4.  DISTRIBUTION OF SUBSIDIARY

In August of 1999, the board of directors of GENROCO, Inc. (the Company's former
parent corporation) began contemplating the spin-off and distribution of
GENROCO, Inc.' s Digital Video Broadcast (DVB) business as a separate company to
be named VideoPropulsion, Inc.  GENROCO, Inc. executed the distribution on
July 10, 2000 by issuing one new share of VideoPropulsion, Inc. stock, for each
share of GENROCO, Inc. stock held by GENROCO, Inc. 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, Inc., which was filed with the SEC on June 19, 2000 and mailed
to each shareholder, as an information statement, on June 20, 2000.

5.  STOCK SPLIT/(SHAREHOLDERS' INVESTMENT)

In July 2000, the Company declared a 4-for-1 stock split as of July 3, 2000 with
a distribution date of July 13, 2000.  As a result, shareholders of record as of
July 3, 2000 received 13,900,836 new shares to bring the total outstanding
amount to 18,534,448.

In March 2001, the Company acquired 190,400 common shares of treasury shares.
The treasury shares were immediately cancelled.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2001, the Company acquired 888,680 common
shares of treasury shares.  The treasury shares were immediately cancelled.

The Company has $81,662 in notes due from employees at June 30, 2001.  These
notes are classified as unearned compensation as the notes are forgiven over a
three year period providing the employees remain with the Company.  The notes
originated while the employees were employed with GENROCO, Inc. in order to
purchase GENROCO, Inc. shares.  Upon the spin-off the notes were transferred to
the Company.  During the quarter, $446,985 of notes were cancelled and the
associated GENROCO, Inc. shares as well as the Company shares received in the
spin-off were returned to GENROCO, Inc. and the Company, respectively.  These
treasury shares were immediately cancelled.

6.  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company is currently in preliminary negotiations with GENROCO, Inc.
regarding the potential merger or restructuring of the two entities.  To date no
written documents have been drafted but management believes it better to merge
or combine with GENROCO, Inc. and have the combined companies, each with
immediate cash needs, strive to raise capital.  The Board has not yet met to
address the possible merger or reviewed any documents, but is in preliminary
discussions.  There can be no assurances that the impact on the Company will be
sufficient to maintain operations.  The Company is exploring ways of funding the
costs of combining the two entities.

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 June 30, 2001  ("2001"),
were $101,899 compared to $246,703 for the three months ended June 30, 2000
("2000"). Net sales for the Company for the six months ended June 30, 2001, were
$165,568 compared to $370,778 for the six months ended June 30, 2000.  Net sales
decreased between periods due to a slowdown in the economy and technology
spending.  The Company continues to rely on an existing customer base, most of
whom are engaged in their own unique product evaluation and development programs
for new products that they intend to sell into the digital video market. By
placing its hardware and software products with key players in the emerging
digital video industry, management believes the Company will garner significant
future sales opportunities as this technology becomes mainstream in the market
place.

Cost of goods sold for the three months ended June 30, 2001 were $19,380,
compared to $45,091 for the three months ended June 30, 2000. Cost of goods sold
for the six months ending June 30, 2001, was $39,328 compared to $78,480 for the
six months ending June 30, 2000.  This expense, which was comprised of parts and
labor associated with the production and testing of circuit boards shipped to
customers, decreased as sales decreased.

Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2001 was $82,519 compared to
$201,612 for the three months ended June 30, 2000. Gross profit for the six
months ended June 30, 2001, was $126,240 compared to $292,298 for the six months
ended June 30, 2000. This decrease is directly related to the reduction in
sales.

The resulting gross margin percentages were 81.0% and 81.7% for the three months
ended June 30, 2001 and June 30, 2000, respectively. This is compared with gross
margin percentages of 76.2% and 78.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and
June 30, 2000, respectively.  These gross margin percentages may not be
indicative of future performance as anticipated price reductions due to
increased competition and volume discount pricing may affect future gross margin
percentages.

Research and development expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2001 were
$118,597 compared to $121,961 for the three months ended June 30, 2000, or
116.4% and 49.4% of net sales for 2001 and 2000, respectively.  Research and
development expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2001 were $248,450
compared to $216,158 for the six months ended June 30, 2000, or 150% and 58.3%
of net sales for 2001 and 2000, respectively.  The increases are primarily
associated with new product development and additional personnel costs.

Selling, marketing, customer service and general and administrative expenses for
the three months ended June 30, 2001 were $499,466 compared to $187,962 for the
three months ended June 30, 2000, or 490.1% and 76.2% of net sales for 2001 and
2000, respectively.  Selling, marketing, customer service and general and
administrative expense for the six months ended June 30, 2001 were $622,122
compared to $383,108 for the six months ended June 30, 2000, or 376% and 103% of
net sales for 2001 and 2000, respectively.  The increase for both periods is
primarily due to fully reserving for a $409,666 receivable from GENROCO, Inc.,
because GENROCO, Inc. currently does not have the wherewithal to fund this
obligation.  Both GENROCO, Inc. and the Company have directors in common.

Operating loss for the three months ended June 30, 2001 was $535,544 compared to
a loss of $108,311 for the three months ended June 30, 2000. Loss from
operations for the six months ended June 30, 2001 was $744,332 compared with a
loss from operations of $306,968 for the six months ended June 30, 2000.

Net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2001 was $543,463 compared to a
loss of $108,712 for the three months ended June 30, 2000.  Net loss for the six
months ended June 30, 2001 was $753,546 compared to a net loss of $315,040 for
the six month period ending June 30, 2000.

The Company has not recorded a deferred tax asset related to its net operating
losses.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's cash position at June 30, 2001 was $3,949, a decrease from $6,557
at March 31, 2001.

During the six months ended June 30, 2001, net cash used in operating activities
was $212,867 versus $171,955 for the six months ended June 30, 2000.

Cash flows used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2001
was $5,015 relating to the acquisition of computer equipment versus $12,511 for
the six months ended June 30, 2000.

Cash flows provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30,
2001 were $207,867 from loans from shareholders and interim funding from
GENROCO, Inc., versus $300,000 of capital contributions for the six months ended
June 30, 2000.

Stockholders' investment decreased by $45,523 to $(733,722) at June  30, 2001
from $(688,199) at December 31, 2000.  The significant changes in stockholders'
investment for the period ended June 30, 2001 include an increase due to the
change in unearned compensation of approximately $608,000, an increase due to
the sale of common stock of $100,000 and a reduction due to a net loss of
approximately $(754,000).

The Company's ratio of current assets to current liabilities (current ratio) was
 .19 to 1 at June 30, 2001 versus .47 to 1 at December 31, 2000.  The Company has
been unable to remain current with short-term obligations due to cash flow
constraints.  The Company has relied solely on funding made available from
GENROCO, Inc. or existing shareholders.  The Company received a loan of $300,000
from a shareholder in February 2001 to cover short-term operational funding.
There can be no assurances that GENROCO, Inc. or existing shareholders will
continue to fund the Company's operations in this manner.

The Company continues to generate negative cash flows from operations.  Current
forecasts indicate that the Company may be unable to fund current plans beyond
the third quarter of fiscal 2001 unless it is able to raise additional capital.
The Company is currently owed $409,666 from GENROCO, Inc., a related party, for
interim operational funding.  GENROCO, Inc. currently does not have the
wherewithal to fund this obligation.  During the quarter ended June 30, 2001,
the Company fully reserved for the receivable.  During the quarter, the Company
assumed from GENROCO, Inc. approximately $182,000 in debt due on demand to
shareholders.  The Company has approximately $674,000 outstanding at June 30,
2001, due on demand to shareholders.  To date no terms have been established
except that the notes are not secured and bear interest at 6% per annum.  There
can be no assurances that GENROCO, Inc. or existing shareholders will continue
to fund or have the resources to fund the Company's operations in this manner.

The Company is considered a development stage company.  A market for the
Company's products may not develop.  The Company's growth will be limited if the
DVB (see Note 4) technology and solutions do not become widely accepted.  The
Company's development efforts are focused on the DVB market, which has only
begun to develop and is rapidly evolving.

The Company believes that the combination of current existing cash and the
Company's ability to obtain additional long-term indebtedness is not adequate to
finance the Company's operations for the current activities and foreseeable
future.  As a result, the Company does not have adequate cash to meet current
obligations and is currently delinquent in payments to its vendors and service
providers.  Management is currently seeking to raise additional capital either
through a private placement or an offering of stock.  To date, no additional
capital has been raised and in light of economic conditions will be difficult.

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
assurances that the Company will be successful in raising such capital at all or
on terms commercially acceptable to the Company or shareholders.  The financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of
this uncertainty.
